Love Is a Sweet Addiction

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask him. He also knows Terence very well.” Ross smiled and pointed at Terence who was standing behind him. Then, Ross turned back at Terence and teased, “Am I right?”

Terence tossed a warning glance at Ross and walked towards Esther. Standing in front of her, Terence looked down and said indifferently, “I’ll deal with you when we get back tonight.”

What did he mean? Was he acting again?

However, she was too tired to do it and did not want to pretend anymore. Esther unconsciously retreated and grabbed Serena who was at a loss. “Serena, let’s go.”

Serena was always interested in handsome men. So, she kept looking back at the two men who suddenly appeared when she was taken away by Esther. She wished badly she could take one of them home.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Serena asked as she walked, “Esther, what does he mean? Do you two know each other?”

“I don’t know him.” Esther answered.

Watching them departing, Ross shrugged his shoulders in disappointment, “Leave so soon. It’s boring.”

“What else do you want?” Terence said, raising his eyebrow.

“At least … wait for me….” Ross immediately followed after Terence when he saw Terence was about to leave too.

It was rare for Anne to see her dreamboat, so she didn’t want to miss this opportunity. She collected her courage and chased after Terence. She stopped him and said with a bright smile, “Well … we have booked a private room upstairs. Do you guys want to join us?”

As she spoke, she deliberately pulled down the clothes to bare her chest a bit more.

Terence looked down at her and smiled charmingly, “Miss Anne is really a beauty. Maybe some other time.” When he spoke, he pulled her clothes upwards again with his long and slender fingers. “It’s windy today. Be careful. Don’t catch a cold.”

Anne was once again attracted by his appealing smile and couldn’t even get the sarcasm in Terence’s last sentence.

“Then….” She seized the opportunity to slag off Esther. “You should have heard that Esther has a husband. She is a skank. Don’t be fooled by her innocent appearance.”

She had thought that Terence would dislike Esther to the extreme, just like James when she said this.

However, He pondered for two seconds and smiled at her again, “It doesn’t matter. I feel more excited about it.”

“….” Anne was shocked.

After saying that, Terence made his way towards the elevator.

It wasn’t until Terence walked far away that Anne realized that she had forgotten to ask for his phone number.

“Esther, are you alright?” Serena took out a piece of tissue paper from the carton and handed it to her. “Don’t take Anne’s words to your heart. She is a bitch. Don’t you know that she likes to judge you?”

Esther sniffed and wiped her tears with a tissue paper. She smiled bitterly at herself in the mirror.

She didn’t know why she was so sad. Was it because of Anne’s insult or because of Dr. Ross’s words? Or … she really cared that her husband was ugly and short-lived.

No! She didn’t care what he looked like. She didn’t like handsome guys like Serena. Her heart ached probably because she felt sorry about Terence. He was already a poor guy, but was still being mocked again and again.
