Chapter 358
Jamie was Zoe's childhood friend, so Leanna had heard Zoe mentioning Jamie's name several times
previously, but since Jamie was in another city and only came to Highside this year, this was the first
time they met.
At this moment, the music seemed to be playing at the highest volume. It made Leanna feel like her
brain was going to explode.
She scrolled through her phone while counting the days, feeling bored. The b*stard should be back in
two days.
Then, she thought, Should I remove him from my blacklist? If not, the b*stard will turn around and scold
me again without sparing me.
Just when this thought came up in her mind and before she could actually act on it, the incredibly
handsome guy that Jamie mentioned had arrived.
Seeing that, Zoe went closer to Leanna and whispered, "He's really quite good-looking. Gosh, look at
those alluring eyes. What's missing is just the phrase 'I'm a jerk' on his face."
At the same time, Leanna looked over in the direction of Zoe's gaze and just so happened to meet the
man's eyes. When the latter saw that, he raised his brows at her frivolously.
Leanna responded to him with a smile out of courtesy and pocketed her gaze. Then, she whispered,
"True."
"I really shouldn't expect anything." Zoe sighed.
On the other hand, Freddie took out his phone and sent a text in the group chat. 'There are gorgeous
women at Tavern. Come, quick.'
Oscar replied, 'Didn't you just come back to Highside?'
Freddie answered, 'So? It doesn't stop me from ogling gorgeous ladies.'
Oscar texted in response, 'The girls overseas couldn't satisfy you, eh?'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'I'm already tired of them. That's why I came back to look at girls from our country. I'm quite lucky to
have met a super gorgeous lady as soon as I came back,' replied Freddie before continuing, 'Where's
our President Pearson? Why is he so quiet?'
Oscar answered, 'He made his wife angry. He's self-reflecting right now.'
'What? I thought he was divorced,' texted a confused Freddie.
'Do you not have access to the Internet abroad?' replied Oscar.
'Oh, I usually just go on the Internet to ogle at pretty ladies. I don't care about all this gossip,' texted
Freddie in response. 'Well, are you guys coming or not? Don't blame me for not giving you the chance
for fair play. I'm going to proceed if you guys aren't coming.'
While Oscar was still typing, Freddie suddenly sent a photo into the group chat.
Although the light was dim and there were rows of bottles in the middle, Oscar could still recognize the
familiar face in the photo.
Oscar stopped typing.
'She's hot, right? The one beside her looks okay too, but there was a look of contempt in her eyes
when she looked at me. I guess it's not easy for her to take the bait,' Freddie texted.
'I'd advise you to buy a flight ticket now and fly back to Sydon,' said Oscar.
Seeing that, Freddie typed a question mark slowly.
At the same time, a message popped up in the group chat all of a sudden. 'Address.'
When Freddie saw that this entrapment was as useful as expected, he quickly sent his location and the
table number he was at to them.
After that, he sent a text to Oscar privately. 'Didn't you say that he has a wife? He couldn't hold out
against the temptation when he saw the hot lady, though.'
He continued to text, 'I know that all men are evil, especially married ones who still look for other
women.'
'This is also why I don't want to get married.' He sighed melancholically.
'Whatever. Good luck,' replied Oscar, to which Freddie responded with an answer and a smiling emoji.
After he sent the text, he put down his phone and raised his wine glass, facing the opposite table.
Then, he downed the wine first.
Seeing that, both Zoe and Leanna were speechless.
Zoe couldn't help but ask Jamie, "Where did you find such a player? He's flirting so obviously."
However, Jamie didn't feel anything special about it. "Is that so? When I was driving yesterday, I
accidentally scratched his car. Not only did he not ask me for compensation, he even helped me to call
the insurance company. I thought he was quite nice, so I got his number. Also, didn't you always ask
me to introduce you to some good-looking men? There's one here now, but you're still so picky!"
"I can't handle this level of handsomeness. I'll leave him for you to slowly enjoy yourself."
"Pfft!"
Just as the two of them were whispering to each other, Freddie suddenly said, "Hey, ladies. I have a
friend coming later. Do you guys mind?"
Hearing that, Jamie quickly said, "We don't mind as long as he's good-looking."
She said the latter part of the sentence in a very soft voice. Since the music was blasting, Freddie
didn't hear her clearly. He only heard them saying that they didn't mind.
Other than Leanna and Zoe, there were still a few of Jamie's friends there. After a while, all of them
started to play games.
When Zoe realized that Leanna was a little absent-minded, she used her elbow to poke her. "Are you
still thinking about that b*stard?"
Hearing that, Leanna snapped out of her thoughts and put on a smile. "I-I wasn't…"
"You've ignored him for such a long time now. I guess he already knows that he's wrong. Don't go
overboard."
Leanna sighed, "I'll think about it later. Either way, he's not back yet."
"That's true." Zoe patted Leanna on the shoulder. "Don't think about it now, then. Leave all these
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtroubled thoughts for tomorrow and just enjoy yourself today!"
Not sure whether it was because she drank or because it was too stuffy in there, Leanna felt her head
spinning after a while, so she went to the washroom.
When Freddie saw that, he followed behind her when the others were not paying attention.
In the washroom, Leanna washed her hands and put her cold hands on her heated cheeks. She felt
much better after that.
She left the washroom after using a tissue to wipe her hands, but an arm blocked the path in front of
her. Then, a deep and flirty voice sounded. "Do you need help?"
At this moment, she stood there and looked at him with a poker face. "No, thank you."
He noticed that she wanted to leave, so he took a step forward. "Don't worry, it's normal to help each
other out when we're out here enjoying ourselves. I think you're a little drunk. Why don't I send you
home? My car is just outside."
When Leanna heard that, she took a deep breath and said calmly, "I have a boyfriend."
Hearing that, he just raised his brows a little, not minding what she said. "It doesn't matter. My friend…
Someone I know still comes out to enjoy when he has a wife. Girl, men are all evil. Don't treat him like
such an important person."
"Is that so?" she replied.
"Of course, look around here. How many of them are as open as I am? I never hide anything. If we get
along well, we can take things further and get rid of your boyfriend. You can hang out with me after
that. If we don't get along well, we can still be friends. What do you think?"
As he was talking, he reached out his hand in an attempt to raise Leanna's chin, but she flicked his
hand off. "Although my boyfriend is no good indeed, you're still nothing compared to his one finger."
This was the first time in Freddie's life that someone told him something like this, but he wasn't
enraged. He just said with a smile, "Oh, really? I really want to meet your boyfriend now to see how
great he is that I can't even be compared to his one finger."
Meanwhile, not far from them, Aidan stood at the same spot, watching this scene with one hand in his
pocket while secretly licking his lips. Just as he took a step forward, he retreated at once, seemingly
wanting to see how Leanne would answer.
