No Renewal My Contract Husband (Nella and Alfred) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 Drinking His Sorrows

Alfred didn’t say anything. He walked into the bar with a dark expression.

Ryan grabbed Jesse, who followed Alfred inside, and whispered, “What’s wrong with Alfred?”

Finished

“What else could it be? Didn’t you see the trending topics this afternoon? Zoey got taken away by the police. Alfred’s worried about her.”

Jesse glanced at Alfred, who was already sitting in a booth, and said, “I’ll keep an eye on Alfred. You go call Mason and the others over. Three heads are better than one. Someone’s bound to come up with a solution.”

After that, Jesse quickly walked toward Alfred.

Ryan stayed where he was, scratching his head in confusion and muttering, “If Alfred wants to get Zoey out, wouldn’t that take minutes? Why does he need everyone’s ideas?”

Confused as he was, he still loyally went to “round up help” for his Alfred.

After calling everyone, he sent a message to his wife.

“Claire, Alfred’s at the bar. Everyone’s helping him figure out how to get Zoey out of the station. I’ll be back later.”

When Claire received Ryan’s message, she was replying to Nella.

“Nella, when Brutus went missing before, I used this pet search service to find him. I’ve contacted them to help look for Marshal too. Don’t worry.”

Right after sending that, she received her idiot husband’s text.

“Damn it! Ryan, you absolute moron!”

She cursed out loud.

She screenshot Ryan’s message and forwarded it directly to Nella, adding, “Nella, why keep that kind of dead weight around? Divorce his sorry ass already.”

At that moment, Nella was searching all over the city for any trace of Marshal.

When she saw the screenshot of Ryan’s WhatsApp message from Claire, she glanced at it without the slightest surprise in her eyes.

Alfred’s bottomless favoritism toward Zoey meant there was no way he’d leave Zoey sitting in a holding cell.

She’d already expected this the moment she called the police and had Zoey taken in.

So seeing Claire’s message stirred no emotion at all.

She only replied to the part about helping find Marshal.

“Thank you, Claire.”

Chapter 204 Drinking His Sorrows

At Last Call.

After Ryan rallied them, all of Alfred’s rowdy buddies showed up.

“Alfred, everyone’s here. Let’s all help you think of a way to get Zoey out of the police station.”

Jesse sat beside Alfred, who had been silently drinking, smiling ingratiatingly.

Hearing that, Mason, who was scrolling through Jasmine’s social feed, looked up with a slight frown.

“You wanna get Zoey out?”

Alfred didn’t answer, only shot Mason a cold glance.

Mason didn’t mind.

Get her out if you want. It’s not like I’m the one without a wife.

Oh, right. Almost forgot. My wife already filed for divorce.

Sigh.

Pot meets kettle.

Mason slumped into the corner of the couch, sulking on his own.

He had no interest in joining the Rescue Zoey Plan.

Finished

Then Alfred, who’d already downed several drinks, suddenly slammed his glass hard onto the table with a sharp clink.

It startled everyone nearby.

They all turned to look at him.

They heard him speak hoarsely, full of pent-up frustration:

“Nella’s been keeping a puppy behind my back.”

Everyone was stunned.

Can’t Nella keep a puppy?
