As Gale looked at the man lunging toward him like a wild beast, he stood up holding the lobster roll and moved to another seat. "Gordan, just because you're drunk doesn't mean you're the boss around here. If you dare to lay a finger on me for real, I won't go easy on you."
Gordan heard Gale’s warning and wore an annoyed expression on his face.
"Gale, you've changed," muttered Gordan. He was too lazy to engage in a scuffle. He pouted as he continued drinking.
Gale took another bite of the lobster roll and asked, "How so?"
After he asked that, he suddenly nodded and added, "Back then, even if I had free time, I wouldn't bother hanging out with you. I must've lost my mind to come to this place with you for a drink. I'm eating chowing down on this lobster roll."
Gale disdainfully eyed the lobster roll. He glared at Gordan as he said, "Remember, you owe me a proper meal."
"Alright, I'll treat you to a feast when I'm less busy." Gordan waved it off.
Gale clicked his tongue. If he took the words of a drunkard seriously, then he had already lost.
Less busy? Gordan was free tonight, but he dragged him out for drinks!
Gale told himself that he would better clarify the time and place if someone offered to treat him to a meal next time and seriously consider whether to accept or not.
After all the fuss, Gordan continued drinking. A little while later, the waitress pushed open the door to their private room and entered. "Sir, here's your room all set up. Here's the key card and your identification."
"Alright, you can leave," replied Gale after he took it from the waitress.
"Yes, sir.” The waitress turned around and left.
Gale kept the key card with himself and then returned Gordan's identification to his wallet. He handed it back to him. "Here's your wallet. Keep it safe!"
Gordan, absorbed in his drinking, seemed to ignore him.
Gale frowned and immediately stuffed the wallet into his pocket. "I'm giving it back to you. Don't come crying to me if you lose it."
"Am I the kind of person who would bother others?" Gordan suddenly asked.
Gale did not answer and instead replied with a question, "Do you think you are?"
"I don't think so, but why does she think I'm a bother? Clearly, she's the one causing trouble..." Gordan muttered to himself.
"Who are you talking about?" Gale suddenly became interested. Just a moment ago, he looked like he had been jilted, all fierce and agitated. Now, looking at Gordan like this, could he really be heartbroken?
Who would have rejected Gordan?
Who in their right mind would turn down Gordan?
Gale really wanted to know just who this woman was. She was so oblivious to what she was missing out on.
Even though Gordan was not a businessman and did not possess fortunes like Luke or Percy, he had his abilities!
With his talents, making money was child's play.
Gordan had brains too. Gale could not help but think that if Gordan were to start a business, he would surely make a fortune.
Moreover, his appearance...
Even though Gale was reluctant to admit it, Gordan had striking looks. He looked charming even in his drunken state. The waitress' attention was almost fully drawn to Gordan just now.
How could such a man be rejected by a woman? Just how high were her standards?
Gordan shot Gale a glance, stating that he might have had too much to drink but he was not drunk.
Furthermore, even if he were drunk, he would not blabber nonsense. Gordan retorted, "What's it to you?"
"I'm just curious. Who would reject someone like you, Mr. Gordan?" Gale persisted, feeling like there was some juicy gossip to uncover here.
[Serves him right! Vivian is such a catch, but he didn't know what he had. He got what he deserved!]
As Gale read the message, he recalled Rain's anger. He remembered what Gordan did to Vivian back then, which caused quite a stir at the time. He shook his head helplessly. He wanted to say that as a man, he could understand why Gordan did not like Vivian.
After all, men were visual creatures. If a woman was not attractive, it was normal for Gordan not to be into her. Even if an unattractive woman treated him well, if she failed to pass the looks test, Gordon could not truly like her.
Moreover, although it was Gordan who acted foolishly by flirting with Vivian before, after all those years, Vivian should have realized that Gordan did not like her. Since he was not into her, she should not have kept clinging to him.
Now that the two had divorced, they should just go their separate ways. Rain did not need to continue to defend Vivian.
However, Gale knew that if he replied like this, Rain would definitely give him a hard time. Thus, he opted for a simple response: [Yeah, you're right. Gordan got what was coming to him for not knowing his place. It’s on him!]
[That's it!] Rain replied, wholeheartedly agreeing with what he said.
Gale looked at Gordan, suddenly realizing that he was also staring at him.
"Is there something on my face?" Gale felt uneasy under his gaze and touched his face.
Yet, there was nothing there…
"There's nothing there. Now that you've finished your lobster roll, can you accompany me for a drink?" asked Gordan. If it were not because he felt bored drinking alone, he would not have called Gale.
However, what he did not expect was that Gale was actually playing with his phone here!
"Sure, let's drink. Let's drink!" Gale put away his phone, intending to continue drinking with Gordan. This way, he would soon find out who the woman Gordan mentioned was.
Once he got drunk, he would be able to coax Gordan into talking.
However, Gale was careless.
They drank for another two hours, and Gordan was completely drunk. Gale poked his face and asked, "So, who's the woman who turned you down?"
