The coldness in her eyes made Hiram's heart tremble. He loosened his big hand and Alline fell to the ground awkwardly. She coughed hard to suppress her breath. Hiram looked at her red face, which was totally different from her pale face just now, all kinds of emotions rolled over in a moment. He said almost subconsciously, "Alline, don't argue. If you are not with Colin, he wouldn't have said that today. He even sent a message to care about you in the middle of the night! "
Alline didn't say anything. He had condemned her. What else could she say? But she didn't expect that Colin would be more ruthless than she thought. After a while, when she recovered, she picked up the phone on the ground and found the message.
Her heart suddenly ached. Colin knew her relationship with Hiram, and he deliberately misled Hiram like this. Did he really want to see her break up with Hiram? She stared at the message for two seconds and deleted it directly. The ring on the ground had already rolled on the ground. She looked for it for a long time before she found it. She put it in her pocket and said calmly, "Hiram, we two should calm down for a while! Then, she turned around and walked out of the bedroom with her small box.
After Alline left, the warm bedroom was empty all of a sudden. Hiram opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything more hurtful. He didn't know why he couldn't say anything at that moment.
That night, the two of them were both awake. Alline slept in the guest room for the whole night, and Hiram stayed alone in the master bedroom for the same night. After dawn, before going to work, Hiram habitually wanted to say hello to Alline, but found that she did not come down.
He hesitated for a moment. He had planned to ask the cook to wake her up for breakfast. Thinking of the cold war between the two last night, he gave up that idea. He thought that it was not his fault. Why did he lower his head first? He was waiting for Alline to apologize.
However, after he came back in the evening, Alline didn't go downstairs. She stayed in the guest room for the whole day. When Hiram entered, she sat on the bed with her legs crossed and held the box tightly in her arms, without saying a word.
She just sat there for a whole day. She thought for a long time that she couldn't go on like this. She had to find something to do, or she would go crazy sooner or later. It was not her, but also by Hiram. She called Cathy and asked her to come out for dinner tonight. The two of them would meet in a Korean barbecue restaurant.
Cathy said in a sweet voice on the phone that she had been craving for barbecue recently. Every time she went out to eat with Austin, that guy would always be amazed at her amazing appetite, which made her, a beautiful woman, feel embarrassed to eat to full every time in front of a man. It was really a little life-threatening, which was the most painful thing for a foodie.
Now that Alline was also in HC City, the two of them could come over at any time. This was a big benefit for Cathy.
During the barbecue, they ordered two two bottles of white wine, and Austin was also sitting aside. Since the accident of Cathy, Hiram had told Austin to stay by her side and not let someone to get close to Cathy. The three of them were all friends and were familiar with each other, so they sat together. When the dishes were served, Cathy directly opened the two bottles of whit wine, and then she gave each of them a cup, "Alline, you have been back to HC City for a long time, I haven't had dinner with you for a long time. Let me see how much you can drink? "
Holding the cup in her hand, Alline said, "Don't worry. I can definitely drink you down! "
"Wow, that's awesome! Cathy sighed to show her appreciation, with a little bit of charm in her eyes. Austin sat aside, helped two ladies barbecue, and served two of them by the way. Then he buried himself in eating and turned a blind eye to their teasing.
"If you don't believe me, can we have a try? In fact, Hiram has never told Alline the true identity of Cathy. Alline always thought that the two of them were friends, but she did not expect that Cathy was Hiram's real cousin.
