Chapter 79 Hangover

She felt that the drunken Alex was exceptionally dangerous, especially when Alex and Heather’s relationship was strained.

However, that did not mean that she would not care about him.

After all, he was her boss.

“Are we really going to the hotel?” Jessica mumbled under her breath.

However, she did not know where to send Alex to if not the hotel.

Evidently, Alex did not want to go home, and she could not possibly bring Alex back to her place. What will my parents think?

Jessica drove with a heavy heart.

Soon, a hotel came into her line of sight, and she drove toward it.

“Mr. Jefferson, we’ve reached.” She swung open the car door and shook the sleeping Alex.

When Alex woke, he came down from the car.

Glancing at the nervous woman, he muttered, “Go home. I’ll go upstairs myself.”

Upon hearing his words, Jessica sighed in relief. She laughed, “You’re drunk. I’ll send you up first.”

Alex did not refuse her offer as he walked into the hotel lobby.

Jessica reached out to support him, but he rejected her.

He was tipsy, not drunk to the point where he could not walk straight.

After asking for a presidential suite, he turned to ask Jessica, “Do you want one?”

“It’s fine. I’ll go home in a bit.” Jessica hurriedly shook her head.

Alex nodded before keeping his identification card and walking toward the elevators.

When they reached the suite, Alex turned to say to her, “Alright. You can go back now. Thanks for tonight.”

After making sure that Alex was not as drunk as she thought he was, Jessica nodded. “Do you want me to pick you up tomorrow morning?”

“Yes. You can drive my car home.” Alex nodded and entered the room.

Jessica then left with Alex’s car keys.

When Alex was lying on the bed, his phone rang. It was from Heather.

After glancing at the caller ID, he muted the phone and tossed it aside. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Meanwhile, at Jennings Residence, Heather was lying on the bed and calling Alex continuously. However, the call went unanswered, and she found herself frustrated.

This was the second time.

This was the second time that Alex had not returned for the night since their marriage.

Most importantly, this was the first time that Alex had completely ignored her.

She tossed her phone to the side. Memories of Alex’s cowardice flashed across her mind, and the hatred she had for him grew exponentially.

While thinking about it, the silhouette of the Four Seas Corporation’s chairman appeared in her mind.

Although he had been wearing a mask, she was sure that beneath the mask he had a handsome face.

He mentioned Alex twice today. Is he hinting that I should divorce Alex so that I won’t affect his reputation? Heather Jennings, what are you thinking? How can he marry you? You’ll only be his toy at best.

When Heather thought about Walt’s disgusting face, she shuddered and sobered up.

However, she could not help but feel moved by the numerous times that the chairman had helped her. He even bought the shares of the Jennings Corporation and made her the chairman.

No man had ever done this for her.

Heather fell asleep as her imagination ran wild.

shares from the Four Seas Corporation.

Demi had given the last million that they had to Jacob, and she had reminded him that he had to successfully court Kate.

This was the only way to save the Jennings family.

Jacob had sworn to his grandmother that he would capture Kate’s heart.

Soon, Kate alighted from the cab.

She was wearing a casual shirt and a pair of jeans. She looked youthful, and her appearance caught the attention of everyone around her.

Feeling proud, Jacob hurried over to her. “Kate, you look gorgeous today. Quick, come in. I’ve prepare everything.”

“Thank you.” Kate nodded politely before entering the restaurant with Jacob.

Instead of booking a room, Jacob had reserved a quiet booth.

After all, he only had one million with him. If he booked a room, it could easily cost him more than 10 thousand.

He knew that it would take more than a dinner to court Kate successfully.

He planned to invite her to a movie after dinner, then shopping. While they shopped, he would buy a present for her.

If the opportunity presented itself, he would go to a hotel. If not, he would invite her again tomorrow.

Therefore, he had a budget for the dinner.

After taking their seats, Jacob ordered.

He raised a bottle of fine wine and poured the liquid into Kate’s glass. “Kate, this wine is imported fron France. It’s more than 30 thousand a bottle. Have some.”

“Let’s skip the wine and go for beverages instead. Thank you,” Kate rejected.
