"Yes, you can have a try. It's like a gamble. If you win, you can get the beauty back. If you lose, it's impossible for you to go back to the previous state of enemy in three lifetimes. The worst result is that you don't see each other. Love seems merciless by that time," Zac analyzed seriously.
He knew that Jim was very clear in his heart. He would not want to become a stranger to Eva.
"I haven't drunk so much for a long time. Just once. I won't indulge myself too much." His voice was very low, as if he was talking to himself.
"I'll drink with you. I'll feel better if you vent it by drinking." Zac clinked glasses with him. He couldn't help much in love, so he had to try his best to comfort him.
By the time Zac left, Jim had already been drunk. He told the housekeeper and servants not to let him out or let anyone in before he was completely awake, including Janice.
It was already three o'clock when Zac came back.
Essie just had a good sleep and woke up.
"I thought you wouldn't come back," she murmured.
"I miss you. Of course I will come back." Zac lay beside her and held her tightly in his arms.
"We just separated for a few hours, okay?" Essie said with a smile.
Zac looked at his watch and said, "We have been separated for eight hours, seventeen minutes and fifty-three seconds. My limit is three hours. I will miss you after three hours," he said and kissed her lips affectionately.
"Don't you think it's too exaggerated?" said Essie with a smile. But she liked it.
"Don't you miss me?" Zac stared at her with his dark eyes full of tenderness and love.
"We have been married for a long time. What's there to miss about?" She pouted coquettishly.
"Really?" Zac frowned, obviously disappointed and displeased.
Maybe she shouldn't destroy the good atmosphere.
"A little," said Essie, winking playfully.
"Just a little?" The man was dissatisfied.
"It will be accumulated and become more." Essie giggled.
"So should I disappear for a few days so that you can miss me a lot, then I come back by then?" Zac threatened.
"You won't. You can't leave me for more than three hours." With a weird smile on her face, Essie looked complacent.
"I can set off when I'm fully fed." Zac turned over and was about to pounce like a starved tiger who was ready to eat.
"Come down. We haven't finished our business yet," said Essie in surrender.
"Honey, it's late at night. It's the most serious thing." An evil smile appeared on Zac's face.
"Let me ask you, does Jim understand his feelings now?" Essie asked.
Zac turned over and came back to her. He knew she would ask about it.
"Sort of."
"Then what is he going to do?" Essie asked worriedly.
"He will do nothing," Zac said in a low voice.
Essie was shocked. "He chose to give up? He hasn't started yet but chose to give up?"
"The beginning of them is actually the end." Zac shrugged.
Essie sighed. Since they were not destined to be together, why did he fall in love with her? God always made fun of people.
"Is he okay?"
"He is drunk. Alcohol can dispel sorrow." Zac sighed.
"What if Eva knows that Jim has fallen in love with her?" Essie stood up, poured two glasses of red wine and handed one to Zac.
"Will you tell her?" Zac asked.
"No, I won't." Essie shook her head. Love was something that needed to be dealt with by the person involved. If others talked too much, it would only cause more trouble. "If Jim chose to bury it, it must be very hard. I hope Janice can try her best to win his heart back."
"That's all we can do. I believe time will dilute everything," Zac said in a low voice.
"Time can make him forget about Janice, so does Eva," Essie said in a low voice.
Zac put his arm around her shoulder and said, "In fact, we are lucky. Although we have been separated, we are still together in the end."
"Yes." Essie nodded and buried her face in his warm chest.
Jim didn't come to the set for three days, which had never happened in his shooting history.
The director was a little worried. He knew that Eva had the best relationship with Jim, so he asked her to go and ask about the situation.
So in the afternoon, Eva went to Jim's villa.
In the past three days, Jim was repeatedly shifted between getting drunk and waking up. The Butler didn't let anyone in. When Janice called to ask, she said that Jim had returned to the Jing family.
When Eva came, the Butler hesitated for a while and finally let her in, because she knew that the person who tied the bell was needed to untie it.
