Chapter 716: Violent Man

Elizabeth hurriedly answered the phone.

"Where are you?"

Jorge's anxious voice sounded from the other end of the line.

"Why aren't you home yet? I've been waiting for you for half an hour!"

"I'm having dinner with my friends at the Riverside Restaurant.I'll be back later,"

Elizabeth explained with along face.

"What the hell are you talking about? Friends? What friends? Come up with a better lie, Elizabeth! Tell
me—are you with another man?"

Jorge's voice was so loud and his words so aggressive that everyone at the table could hear him
through the phone.

"You're crazy!"

Elizabeth didn't want to waste her breath on him, so she hung up the phone angrily and downed yet
another glass of wine.By then, she had finished almost a whole bottle of red wine by herself.

Worried that she'd get drunk, Janet quickly stopped her.

"Let's eat something first before you have another drink, okay?"

But Elizabeth only turned a deaf ear to her and continued to drink.

In the end, Janet had no choice but to turn to Draco for help.Draco usually didn't like to meddle in other
people's private affairs, but he couldn't resist Janet's pleading look.So he stopped Elizabeth.



"That's enough.Getting drunk will solve nothing."

Draco had never scolded anyone like this before.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмApart from being serious at work, he
was gentle in private and had a good temper.Elizabeth obediently stopped, but it was probably too
late.Her cheeks were flushed and she seemed to have trouble keeping her head up.She slumped over
the table, tears in her eyes.

After the phone call, Elizabeth didn't have an appetite.She sat quietly as Draco and Janet ate their
food.

Janet walked her to the gate of the restaurant after dinner.She was worried about Elizabeth, so she
wanted to drive her home.But their places were on opposite ends of the city.

It was too late for her to take Elizabeth home and then go home alone.It seemed that Draco could tell
what was on her mind because he then offered to take Elizabeth home himself.

"You should go home now.Drive safely."

Janet didn't insist on taking Elizabeth home herself.

"Thank you, Mr.Wesley.You, too."

Draco nodded and approached to take Elizabeth over from her.

Elizabeth was so drunk that she couldn't even stand by herself.

Coincidentally, just as Draco came close, she fell into his arms.

Janet didn't think there was anything wrong.

After all, Elizabeth was drunk and Draco had offered to take her home.



Of course he had to help her into his car first.However, someone lurking nearby thought differently.

Before Elizabeth could gather her bearings, an angry man stepped in front of Draco, blocking their
way.The man pointed a finger at them aggressively.

"So, you're her new boy toy? Bitch, how dare you cheat on me!"

It was Jorge, Elizabeth's boyfriend.Worried that things were getting out of hand, Janet tried to stop him
and hurriedly explained, "Sir, calm down.We're both Elizabeth's colleagues.We just had dinner
together."

"Go to hell, bitch!" Jorge refused to listen.

He unscrupulously shoved Janet away from him.

Janet didn't expect him to be so violent.She almost fell down, but fortunately, somebody caught her in
time.

She looked back in surprise and saw that Brandon, wearing a black overcoat, was holding her from
behind.He helped her up and looked into her eyes with concern.

"Are you okay?"
