A Night of Desire

Chapter 616: Chapter 613: There’s Nothing I Don’t Know About Her

Sarah Shelby’s eyes were glazed over, and her hand holding the glass seemed weak—clear signs that she’d had too much to drink.

Chloe Grant, standing beside her, gave her a few nudges and called out, "Sarah Shelby? Sarah?"

Sarah looked at her, her gaze hazy. "Who are you?" she asked.

"You don’t even recognize me?" Chloe Grant said, waving a hand in front of her eyes.

"Stop waving... What are you waving for? You’re making me... wanna puke..." Sarah raised her hand to swat Chloe’s away, but her eyes couldn’t focus, and she missed every time she tried.

Chloe Grant shrugged. "Take a better look. Who am I?"

Sarah actually squinted at her for a moment, then frowned. "Chloe Grant? What, you... trying to bully Clara again? I’m telling you, don’t even think about it! Go on, get away from me, don’t bother me..."

"Heh, so you do recognize me. Guess you haven’t had that much to drink, then. How about it? I’ll have a couple of drinks with you." As she spoke, Chloe Grant raised her hand toward the bar to call the bartender over. "A whiskey."

The bartender quickly placed a glass in front of her, glanced at Sarah, and asked Chloe, "Miss, is this lady your friend?"

"...Uh, yes." Chloe hesitated for a moment before nodding. "By the way, how many has she had?"

The bartender held up one hand. "This is her sixth glass. Your friend can really hold her liquor—she hasn’t passed out yet. But you should probably convince her to drink a little less."

"She’s in a bad mood today, so let her drink a little more. It’s fine," Chloe Grant said, waving her hand dismissively as she spoke.

’People who come to a bar to get drunk are always in a bad mood, aren’t they?’

Chloe Grant raised her glass and clinked it against Sarah’s. After taking a small sip, she looked at Sarah and asked with feigned casualness, "Sarah, where’s that best friend of yours, Clara Grant? How come she isn’t with you? That’s not very friendly of her. You’re in a bad mood, and she’s nowhere to be found."

Sarah rolled her eyes at her. "What right do you have to talk about Clara? It was me... I told her not to come. I wanted to be alone for a bit... Hey, who are you? Why are you sitting right... right next to me?"

"It doesn’t matter who I am. Isn’t it enough that I’m here to drink with you?" Chloe wasn’t interested in Sarah’s troubles, so she kept circling the conversation back to Clara Grant.

"You and Clara Grant, you two are such great friends, like sisters. It’s a real blessing to have a friend like that. So, since you’re so close, does she tell you everything?"

"Well, of course... There’s nothing about her that I don’t know..." Sarah said with a smile before taking another sip of her drink.

"I wouldn’t be so sure about that." Chloe put on a disbelieving look, prodding further. "No matter how close you are, she must have some secrets she keeps from you. For example, maybe she’s secretly in love with some guy..."

"What you’re... you’re talking about, that’s a secret... crush... and of course I know about it..."

As Sarah spoke, Chloe quickly pulled her phone out of her purse, opened the voice recorder app, and set the phone on the table before looking up at her with an expectant expression.

Completely oblivious, Sarah continued speaking. "She’s been in love with a man. For three years now."

"So, what’s the man’s name? I bet she never told you that," Chloe prodded intentionally.

"What do you mean she didn’t tell me? The man’s name is Miles Quinn. It’s... it’s the actor, Miles Quinn."
