Talented Wife 51
"Hmm?" Jason heard Caleb's exclamation and looked over as well. They saw a big lip print on Johnny's cheek.
However, "Get lost!"
Caleb insisted on being mischievous. He ran over, his face filled with excitement and curiosity, and said, "Which girl dared to tarnish our outstanding friend?" Caleb was genuinely curious. "Who did you run into just now? Should I call the police? Did you strangle someone to death?"
Usually, Johnny didn't let women get close to him. If someone ambushed him, he might have easily fought back and accidentally harmed them. Johnny knew Caleb was joking, so he couldn't be bothered to respond to him.
"I still have my child at home. I'm leaving."
"After all the effort to make plans, you're leaving already? How about having a few more drinks?" Caleb felt that Johnny was acting unusual today. This behavior was definitely related to his sudden departure just now.
Who was the woman involved in all of this, after all?
When Johnny decided to leave, there was little anyone could do to stop him, and Caleb didn't make much effort to persuade
him to stay.
He stroked his chin with a thoughtful expression and said, "Jason, do you think Johnny is entering a new romantic chapter in his life?"
"I don't know." Jason was not a gossipy person.
"Aren't you even a bit curious?" Caleb was practically bursting with curiosity.
Jason remained very calm. "Not curious."
At that moment, Caleb's phone rang. It was Barbara.
Caleb didn't have much of an impression of this woman. If he had to speak his mind, he felt that Barbara was not at all worthy of Johnny. However, considering that she was the only woman who had stayed around Johnny for a long time, Caleb would still give
her
some
face.
Caleb picked up the phone, and even before he could say a word, Barbara's voice came through, asking, "Caleb, is Johnny with you?" "We're having a drink together. What's the matter?" asked Caleb.
"I called him, but he didn't answer. Could you pass the phone to him? I'd like to talk to him for a moment," she said.
Barbara spoke softly, but in reality, she couldn't sit still in her heart

"Johnny is currently unavailable," Caleb said vaguely.
With everyone gone, where could he find Johnny now?
The phrase "unavailable" made Barbara think suggestively. Could it be that Johnny was currently with that woman, which was why it was inconvenient?"
At that thought, Barbara's expression contorted into one with unpleasant jealousy.
Which woman could possibly have such great abilities?
She had to find out who this woman was and then deal with her.
Barbara forcibly suppressed the rising bitterness in her heart and continued to ask, "Are you all at Night Bar now?"
Night Bar was the bar owned by Caleb.

"Ms. Hersey, you haven't even married into the Sutton family yet, and you're already concerned about Johnny's schedule?"
"I didn't mean that." Barbara pretended with a touch of grievance.
Caleb disliked that whining tone the most. Unable to bear it and not wanting to hear Barbara's voice any longer, he hung up the phone directly.
Barbara also disliked Caleb. What was he pretending for?
She stood up, intending to visit Night Bar and see for herself.
Barbara was just about to leave when she checked her phone and saw that Kelsey had posted something on her social media.
In the photo was a group of people, and Alina stood out prominently in the crowd.
Barbara glanced at the background; it seemed like it was indeed Night Bar.
Could it be that the person close to Johnny is Alina?
Barbara zoomed in on the photo, carefully identifying Alina's hairstyle. Then, she opened the image she received of a woman being close to Johnny. The hairstyle was indeed similar to Alina's. Barbara dug her long nails into her flesh as she bit her lips so hard that they were on the verge of bleeding. That expression seemed as if she wished she could directly harm the person in the photo.
She did not expect that the person was Alina again.
