Please Love Me, Mr. George

Chapter 237 Half Enemy Yara 9

Marcus quickly figured it out, helped Olivia to a seat, then smilingly ordered food and wine.

Dennis, always quiet, sat beside me expressionless, chatting lightly with Mario beside him.

Marcus stood up with a glass of wine in his hand and looked at me, “Clara, here’s a toast. I was

reckless before, and I will correct it.”

With that, he looked up and drank the wine. I looked at Dennis. He looked calm, not showing any

emotion.

Mario looked at me and paused. “We’ve made it a rule to drink ten drinks and apologize if we make a

mistake.”

As I looked at the ten glasses of wine that Marcus had already poured, I remembered that I had done

something similar before.

Except I was the one who gave Marcus the drink.

I couldn’t help but laugh, why did these people want to do this? Ten drinks was fine for a good drinker,

but for those who couldn’t hold their liquor or had a bad stomach, it could kill them.

When Marcus took his second drink, I jumped to my feet, looked him in the eye and said, “If it wasn’t

for dinner, I’d be leaving.”

“Clara, what do you mean? Have you no manners?” Olivia, probably already angry, stood up and said

to me when I wanted to leave.

She looked at me angrily and said, “Marcus had apologized to you. Don’t you have parents to teach

you how to behave? You want them all to fall apart to make you happy, don't you?”

I could not help frowning, calmly looking at her excited face said, “So are you defending him, or are you

just venting your feelings?”

“What…”

I didn’t give her a chance to speak. I just said plainly, “I don’t have parents, so I don’t know what my

parents would teach me. But, Miss Pearson, if you have parents, they probably taught you that it's not

good manners to meddle in other people's business.”

“Clara, are you saying I have no manners?” Hearing my words, Olivia said, looking aggrieved at

Dennis, “Dennis, are you just gonna let your wife bully me like that?”

Dennis frowned and gave her a cold, silent look, obviously thinking she was treating everyone else like

a fool.

Marcus looked at Olivia and said, “Olivia, stop it. You stay out of this.”

“Why can’t I be involved? This is a rule that was made when Calvin was around, and I was there, too,

so why can’t I be a part of it?”

“There’s no rule about who gets to meddle, Olivia, don’t you know that?” Mario said. His eyes were cold

and slightly irritated.

Olivia froze, then burst into tears.

I got upset and looked at Marcus and said, “I don’t know how the rules used to work between you guys.

Your apology has been accepted. Thank you for the treat. Alcohol is not necessary. Now that you’ve This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

apologized, there’s no need to do it this way.”

After a pause, I continued, “Everyone has their own way of dealing with things. You have your rules

and I have my own opinions, so you don’t have to drink.”

Marcus froze and looked at Dennis with a puzzled look.

Dennis, who had been silent, got up and looked at Marcus and said, “Since Clara says it’s all right, we’ll

have it her way. It’s too late tonight and she’s tired. Let’s get together another time.”

Then he took me and started to walk away.

Olivia jumped in front of us, looking at us, no, Dennis to be exact with her red eyes, “The rule Calvin

made was just got broken by you. Does it seem to you now that the bond between us all for decades is

no greater than this woman?”

Dennis frowned and said, “She’ my wife!”

Olivia sneered. “So what? Does that mean you can do anything for her because she’s your wife?”

I wanted to laugh. “Olivia could write a biography about the way she uses her brother. I don’t care why

you guys made these inhumane rules. You were twenty years old then, and I can understand the

reckless rules. But for a second, Miss Pearson, do you think that’s still a good rule?”

“Don’t you know they are in their thirties? Don’t you have any idea how much those ten drinks would

hurt their health, even if they were in the best of health? Besides, they have been staying up all night

on business trips recently, and they are exhausted by the company. So you’re letting Marcus drink

those ten more drinks in the hope that he, like your brother, will forever sacrifice his so-called friendship

with death?”

Olivia's face went pale and she glared at me, her heart beating with rage, “Bullshit. You’re too arrogant

to accept Marcus’s apology, and that’s why you’re walking away.”

Sometimes I thought Olivia had an IQ of five. She was just thinking like a child.

I looked at her, paused, looked at Marcus, and said seriously, “Mr. Thomson, to tell you the truth, you’re

a nice guy.

Dennis and I are husband and wife. He regards you as a family member, and I naturally regard you as

a family member, too. I will not make trouble with you because of a few harsh words, let alone affect

the friendship between you and Dennis. I accept your apology, and you don’t have to drink, because

we're family, so I don't want you to risk your life for your so-called rules.”

With that, I took Dennis’s hand and walked out of there.

But as soon as I got in the car, I threw Dennis’s hand away and glared at him. “Did you bring me here

on purpose?”

If I’d known Olivia was there, I wouldn’t have come. It would only make yourself angry for nothing at all.

He pressed his lips together and said, “I’ve been with you all this time. Did you think I’d know Marcus

had her over?”

I looked at him angrily. “You can walk home yourself!”

After that, I got in the car, started the car and left.

In the rearview mirror, he lifted his forehead, a little confused.

…

In the villa.

As soon as I stopped, I saw Yara standing in the doorway in a long gown. She looked over my shoulder

and didn’t see Dennis.

She looked at me and said, “Have you got a minute? How about a little chat?”

I shrugged. “About what?”

“You and me!”

I laughed. “You’ve gotten an Olivia. Isn’t that enough?”

“I just wanted to do what was good for both of us,” she frowned, “As long as we get along with each

other, I won’t break up your marriage or your family.”

“So? If I don’t agree to work with you, are you trying to break up my marriage and my family?” I missed

her entering the hall. Nanny Daisy and Jenny were not there. It looked like she got rid of them.
