Chapter 2107
After a while, Vermont came back.
As the alcohol took its toll, Marshall leaned back on the couch. He loosened his tie with one hand and turned to Vermont, who was sprawled drunkenly on the couch with a glass of alcohol in his hand. He said," Cheers."
Carter was just like Marshall. Although they had their fair share of drinks, they were still sober. He looked at his phone and propped himself up on the couch. "I'll call a cab. Let's send Vermont home first."
Before Marshall could speak, Vermont instantly said upon hearing that, "I'm not going back. If you guys are leaving, I'll just stay here tonight."
Carter paused. "Stay here? Aren't you afraid that Ms. Thompson will find out?"
Vermont scoffed. "So what if she did? Do you think I'm scared of her? She doesn't even want me to meet her parent. I'll just break up with her if things don't work out."
His phone on the table rang as soon as he finished speaking.
Carter glanced at the caller ID "miss bandit." Then, he bent down, picked up the phone, and answered it. "Hello there.”
Felicity was taken aback. "Who are you?"
"This is Carter Lowe," he paused before asking cautiously. "Are you Ms. Thompson?"
Felicity said, "Where's Vermont? Let me speak to him."
"He's had too much to drink." Carter then repeated what Vermont had said, word by word. 'He said he's not coming back tonight. He wants to stay at the bar."
