Reyes closed the computer.

At Sullivan’s urging, the waiter brought a bottle of Spirytus and a clean glass.

In the bar, there was an unwritten rule. As long as someone could finish a glass of Spirytus and walk in a straight line, the alcohol they drank that day would be free.

This wine was really strong. Reyes had never drunk such strong wine before, so he wasn’t sure if he would stay sober after drinking it.

This bottle was 200 milliliters.

Sullivan poured out a third and added a little CHOYA. He handed it to him. He was not too hard on him.

He didn’t think for long. He took it and drank slowly.

It was spicy and tasted a little weird.

Seeing that he was cooperating, Sullivan’s anger at being toyed with subsided by half.

Sullivan asked, “Didn’t you come home to see your stepmother yesterday? Why did you hang up on me when I asked? What happened? Did she bully you?”

Reyes stopped drinking.

He recalled how Toya had reached out to brush the corner of his eyes last night and used the tip of her tongue to lick his tears.

She promised coldly, “I won’t bully you.”

She really didn’t bully him.

But sometimes, her words hurt him.

He knew she didn’t mean it, so he countered softly, “No.”

After saying that, he took another big gulp.

Sullivan didn’t understand. “She didn’t bully you? Then why did you hang up on me and blacklist me?”

Reyes didn’t respond.

Sullivan thought for a moment. “Are you afraid she’ll really have a baby with your father and then compete for the inheritance?”

Reyes said, … Stop it, okay?

There was resentment in his eyes.

Sullivan thought: Looks like Reyes was really afraid of that.

He patted his good friend’s shoulder and comforted him. “You’ll get used to it.”

Reyes, not really wanting to pay attention to him, drank his wine.

Sullivan actually wanted to ask more questions about Reyes’s stepmother. He was just too curious to know what kind of woman Butler had chosen.

Butler did not invite many people for the engagement party.

There were not many relatives in the Wilson family, and the female party was very mysterious, so there was very little information that was spread.

He only knew that the woman was very young and was still in school.

But when he saw Reyes’s refusal to communicate, he tactfully shut his mouth.

Reyes felt dizzy. He knew it was from the alcohol.

Spirytus was very strong. He wanted to go back to his house while he could still move.

Sullivan glanced at the three empty wine bottles on the table. He wasn’t a deranged man. Reyes had drunk the wine himself. He hadn’t pushed him.

“Shall I drive you?”

Reyes waved and walked away.

He dropped the phone. Sullivan didn’t realize it until he was almost gone.

He used his own phone to call Reyes’ number. He hadn’t pulled him out of the blacklist.

It didn’t matter. He could pull himself out, right?

After releasing his number from the blacklist, Sullivan scrolled through Reyes’s phone contacts.

He remembered that when Reyes was too drunk to get up, he would ask him to make a phone call and someone would pick him up.

If he lost his phone this time, he should be able to make that call.

Except Reyes didn’t seem to like giving people caller IDs. Except for a couple of seniors and friends Sullivan knew, the rest of the dozens of numbers were empty.

He searched through the most recent calls, saw the unlisted number at the top, and tentatively called.

Reyes had taken the initiative to call this number, so it shouldn’t be a harassment call.

It rang for a long time.

“Hello.”

It was a girl, different from the last time.

Sullivan realized he was probably wrong, but even if the person wasn’t the one who’d picked Reyes up the last time, she was probably someone Reyes knew. He didn’t risk hanging up.

The other party continued, “Are you looking for Toya Madison? She’s busy right now. I can help you pass her the message.”

Sullivan froze.

Toya Madison?

Was it the same Toya Madison that Reyes had called him last night to ask him for help wooing?

Why would Reyes have her phone number on his phone?

Was he wrong? Reyes had said he didn’t need him because he had already gotten Toya?

Not because of a change of heart?

Sullivan’s mind filled with questions.

What exactly happened to him that night?

While Sullivan was too shocked to speak, a conversation came over the line.

“What’s wrong? Who called?”

“I don’t know. He hasn’t said a word.”

Another cold female voice answered the phone. “Hello, I’m Toya.”

Sullivan’s mind raced. “Hi. I’m Sullivan. Reyes’s friend.”

“Yes, what’s the matter?”

Indeed! They knew each other!

If they didn’t know each other, the call would have ended by now.

Sullivan was excited.

He continued probing, “Reyes drank too much and left his phone with me. Is it convenient for you to help him retrieve it?”

Toya refused. “It’s not convenient..”
