Stefan didn�t say anything. Xavier, on the other hand, did. He leaned over menacingly and growled, �I knew you were here to cause trouble. What is it you want?�

Liam laughed. �There�s no need to get riled up. I told you� I just want to have a few drinks. Do you have the guts to drink with me, Mr. Hunt?�

Before Stefan could answer, Xavier scoffed, �Why would Stefan be afraid? I�m on your side, Stefan Drink until he drops!�

Stefan rolled his eyes at Xavier. �Thank you for sending me into his trap.�

Liam filled two more glasses with alcohol. �Join me� if you dare.� Since Stefan was brave enough to act like a scumbag in public, Liam felt what was doing was reasonable.

Renee once told Liam that Stefan wasn�t good at drinking, and that he was like an elementary school kid when it came to drinking games. That was why Liam had prepared a bottle of the strongest vodka he could find. He wanted to play a drinking game with Stefan until he became drunk. Liam would then humiliate Stefan and avenge Renee.

Liam felt that Stefan was a proud person. With some encouragement, he would certainly accept the challenge.

However, to Liam�s surprise, his plan didn�t work.

Stefan didn�t plan on accepting the challenge at all. He stood up and turned to face Christopher and Xavier. �Something came up. I�ll catch you later.�

After that, he turned to Shirley. �Come with me.�

"Huh. I� Can I?� Shirley�s eyes were wide in disbelief. She was an ordinary college student, and it was her first time working in a bar as a part-timer. Everything that had happened tonight felt like a dream to her.

Stefan didn�t answer her, and just walked towards the bar exit.

"W-Wait for me!� Shirley grabbed her purse and mustered the courage to follow him. From her perspective, Stefan was more than a knight in shining armor. Even if there was a sliver of hope, she�d grab onto it tightly and not let go.

The two of them walked out one after the other, and everyone else was in shock.

Even Xavier, who had been unconditionally supporting Stefan, couldn�t resist complaining. �Damn. He didn�t drink much today, so what the hell is he thinking? Does he really have feelings for that girl? That girl really does look like his ex-wife. He�s leaving the real thing behind and going for the fake version� What�s wrong with him?�

Christopher glanced in the direction where Stefan and Shirley had gone, then looked at Renee. A playful smile appeared on his face. �Stefan is serious this time.�

�Serious? About that girl?� Xavier shook his head. �I don�t think so!�

Christopher chuckled. �I didn�t say he�s serious about that girl.�

"This is so lame. Today�s supposed to be your bachelor party, so why did Stefan leave on his own? Even if he does have feelings for that girl, can�t he just resist them for a while?� Xavier asked.

A man and a woman meet at a bar, and they then leave together. Even a fool knows what�s going to happen next. JrNovels.com
