Chapter 1038:

No man would stand by while someone openly tested his patience—especially not when it involved his fiancée.

Moses moved quickly, drink in one hand, as he clapped the other firmly onto Doug's shoulder. The gesture was

friendly, but the warning was clear. “Doesn’t matter whether you've met before or not. What matters is that

we're all friends now.”

Without waiting for a response, he pried Doug's fingers from Corrine’s hand and pulled him down into the chair

beside him. “Been too long since we all got together. Let's start with a drink.”

Doug, though clearly distracted, lifted his glass. He took a sip, but his eyes drifted toward Corrine once more.

Under the golden glow of the lights, she raised her own glass. Her slender neck arched as she drank, her smooth

jawline catching the light. Her skin had the kind of luminous beauty that turned heads without effort.

Even in profile, she was stunning.

And then, as if struck by lightning, Doug’s eyes widened. “I remember now!”

Moses had just taken a sip from his glass, but the moment Doug spoke, he choked, coughing repeatedly.

With irritation bubbling beneath the surface, Moses kicked Doug under the table and hissed, “Will you ever quit?”

For the sake of their friendship, Moses was doing his best to stop Doug from stepping straight into a disaster.

But the fool was hell-bent on heading into the storm without a second thought!

Doug, however, remained unfazed. Despite the kick, his face was an open book of innocence as he stared at

Corrine, his gaze sharpening as though trying to read shidden code.

Herbert, laying down his glass and wiping his hands with a napkin, leaned forward, his voice low and serious.

“You need to cut this out.”

Had Doug lost his mind? Publicly showing interest in Nate's woman? It was a reckless game.

Meanwhile, Rosalie, observing Corrine with raised eyebrows, couldn't suppress the mischievous smile tugging at

the corners of her lips.

Amidst the rising confusion, Doug asked, his tone suddenly serious, “Miss Holland, were you part of an elite

military skills competition syears ago?” The room fell silent.
