Snare of Love novel Chapter 299

“Armand!” Theresa shouted at him. However, the car had already whizzed away, leaving behind nothing but an unpleasant puff of exhaust fumes.

She took out her mobile phone to call him.

Armand was driving. His phone was connected to the Bluetooth in the car. Whenever there was an incoming call, the display in the car would automatically connect. He glanced at the caller ID. It was Theresa.

He pressed the answer button, “Hey, wait for me at the office for a while, I’ll be back soon.”

“Where are you going?” Theresa clutched her phone tightly, “Can you come back now?”

“I need to settle something...”

“What do you have to settle? Is it work-related stuff or personal stuff?” Theresa asked anxiously.

Inwardly, she was afraid, afraid that Armand was going to meet Phoebe.

Armand pursed his lips and lied, “Work-related.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you at the office, I won’t leave until you come back.” Theresa hung up the phone after saying that.

Armand parked his car by the side of the road and dialled the number that had just called him.

Phoebe was sitting sat inside the bar, looking at the phone that kept ringing. She narrowed her eyes slightly as she poured herself another sip of wine.

The bartender handed over another glass of wine, “Are you going to answer it?”

Phoebe smiled, “If I answer it, I can’t catch the fish.”

“Fishing?” He soon understood, “It was from the man that you asked me to call just now, saying that you were drunk?”

Phoebe glanced at him and put three hundred dollars on the table, “When he comes, you don’t reveal the truth.”

The bartender grabbed the money and put it in his pocket, he smiled, “Don’t worry, next time if you need me, you’re welcomed to look for me. As long as the price is reasonable, it’s okay for me to stay one night with you.”

“Don’t act too overly.” Phoebe slanted a glance at the bartender.

Armand received a phone call saying that Phoebe was unconscious due to drunk at the bar. A person found his contact information from her mobile phone so the person called him.

The bar consisted of people from all works of life. It was very dangerous for a woman who was drunk to stay alone at the bar. So, he came out in a hurry, but Theresa looked bad just now.

He wanted to pay the person who had called him to send Phoebe back, but the phone was unanswered.

He did not know how to make an option for a moment. On the one hand, he was worried that something had happened to Phoebe in the bar, and on the other hand, he was worried about Theresa.

He was in a dilemma.

After a few moments of thinking, he started his car and drove to the bar. Phoebe would be dangerous in the bar whereas Theresa would be safe in his office.

Moreover, when he came back, he would give Theresa a confession about Phoebe.

In fact, he knew that Theresa was in a bad mood since last night, mostly because of Phoebe’s presence.

Now that he had married, he wanted to keep the marriage going and he wanted to live with Theresa.

He felt warm when staying together with Theresa. Theresa gave him a feeling of home.

He drove his car to the entrance of the bar. He pushed the car door and quickly walked in.

The light was dim. There were only a few people in the bar, it might be because of the time. He soon spotted Phoebe, who was lying on the bar counter. Armand quickly walked over to her.

She was still holding a glass of wine in her hand, and she looked drunk.
