CHAPTER 549: CHAPTER 262 BUT I’M NOT WILLING (2 MORE)

Hearing the word "good friend," both Kay Forrest and Nolan Moore scoffed at the same time.

Evie Larkin just gave her a smile without saying anything.

She picked up her glass and drank it all in one gulp, looking melancholy.

Jane Quinlan pursed her lips, thinking that Evie Larkin was also in a difficult position sandwiched between the two.

She didn’t think any further.

Nevertheless, the atmosphere now was indeed a bit awkward.

She said to Kay Forrest, "I’m going to the restroom."

"I’ll accompany you."

"No need," she shook her head, "I can go by myself."

She needed to get some fresh air, let them feel awkward on their own.

After asking a waiter where the restroom was, she walked away.

Once Jane Quinlan left, the gentle expression on Kay Forrest’s face immediately turned cold.

Nolan Moore also hugged his arms and turned his head to one side, clearly angered.

Evie Larkin looked at Kay Forrest and gently put down her glass.

"Kay, did you really come to Beijing for Jane Quinlan?"

Kay Forrest replied coldly, "Otherwise, you think I came for you?

What about you makes you worth the long trip here for me?"

"Kay Forrest, can’t you speak nicely?"

Nolan’s tone was not friendly either.

Kay Forrest scoffed sarcastically, "What was your tone when you spoke to my girlfriend?

You coldly snub other people’s girlfriends, yet expect others to speak gently to the woman you like?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Evie and I are just good friends."

The anger on Nolan’s face deepened.

Evie Larkin put her hand on Nolan’s hand, "Nolan, please stop.

The last thing I want to see is you two clashing.

Nolan, I want to sit alone with Kay for a while, can you help me with that?"

Nolan clenched his fist, glanced at Kay Forrest, and then stood up and walked towards the restroom.

Kay Forrest said leisurely, "Nolan Moore, if you dare talk nonsense in front of Jane,

I will make you unable to bear the consequences."

Nolan gave him a cold sideways glance before walking away.

Evie Larkin put down her glass, bit her lip and looked at him, "Do you really hate me that much.

Hate to the extent that even when it’s just the two of us, you’re unwilling to even glance at me?"

"Knowing all this, why humiliate yourself by saying it?"

"Seeing how good you are to Jane, do you know how sad I am?

If only we had..."

"They say one only drowns in their own drunkenness, and it’s true.

Miss Larkin, I think you’ve had too much to drink.

You want to bring up the past?

The words Jane said today are exactly what I feel.

Who said that being in a relationship must lead to marriage?

The reason we didn’t end up in marriage is because the fate is not there.

What’s the point of talking about these things now?

Do not covet things that don’t belong to you.

Be careful, or you might suffocate yourself."

Evie Larkin gritted her teeth, "I’ve waited for you for so many years, are these the only words you can say to me?"

"You want to hear sweet words? Then you might need to find Nolan.

I only say sweet things to the woman I love.

You don’t make the cut."

He picked up his glass and took a sip, "If I were you, I’d leave this place, letting those who truly love each other enjoy this pleasant evening."

Evie Larkin suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with disappointment.

"I had wanted to have a proper talk with you.

Now it seems... I was crazy to think that."

She grabbed her purse and left.

After she left, Kay Forrest frowned and turned his head to look at her retreating figure.

He didn’t think he had done anything wrong.

If they were two people without a future, why waste words.

What he despised most was beating around the bush.

When Jane Quinlan came out of the restroom, she ran into Nolan Moore.

He stared at her with crossed arms, "Guess you’re feeling smug now, huh."

"Nolan Moore, don’t pick a fight, what is there for me to be smug about?"

"Now that your backup has arrived, you can flex your muscles again."

So that’s what he thought of her.

Fine, let him think that way then.

"Yes, luckily my Forrest came, otherwise what would you have done to me tonight.

Nolan Moore, even the heavens are watching.

Do you think you can bully others without paying a price?

Kay Forrest is just the heaven-sent help to sort you out, hmph."

As she was about to walk past him back to the bar,

Nolan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop her.

Evie Larkin said she wanted to talk to Kay Forrest, so he had to block this woman.

"You’re right, bullying others does come at a cost.

That Kay Forrest, he will ultimately face retribution.

If the heavens are watching, such a person should suffer a miserable end."

Jane pushed him at the chest, "Nolan Moore, watch your mouth."
