But unexpectedly—
She happened to run into Little Patten outside, and once she ca in, she saw this scene.
Louis Cox saw her too.
He pushed Bob Ginger aside, stood up, and said, "You’re here."
As soon as he spoke, his ears felt hot.
Mia Ginger frowned at him, snapping, "What are you doing! He’s my brother!"
"Of course, I know he’s your brother. If he weren’t, I wouldn’t have brought him in!" Louis Cox retorted irritably. He looked at Mia’s expression and felt even gloomier.
He was perfectly normal, okay?
How could one sentence sound so strange?!
Mia pursed her lips and ignored him.
She stepped over to Bob, helped him up gently, and said, "Bob?"
Oh my!
So this girl could be this gentle.
Louis Cox felt a huge blow, utterly depressed as he watched her.
Bob was completely drunk and unconscious.
Mia called out to him several tis, but he didn’t wake up, leaving her speechless and frustrated.
"It’s his first ti drinking, right?" Louis Cox laughed mockingly and instructed Little Patten, "Don’t just stand there, help him up."
Leaning on Mia’s shoulder, how could he not feel lucky?!
Little Patten quickly nodded and said with a smile, "Sister Mia, let do it."
Mia gave him a look and let go of Bob.
Little Patten helped Bob stand up and asked the two, "What should we do next?"
Mia pursed her lips, thinking for a mont, "Let’s go to a hotel."
"Mm." Louis Cox smiled at her, "Let’s go to a hotel then."
Little Patten supported Bob as they headed out.
Louis Cox and Mia trailed behind, hearing her call Aiden Jiang to say she wouldn’t be coming ho that night, and he couldn’t help but smile.
Mia finished the call, saw his expression, and lowered her head, not saying a word.
——
At nine in the evening.
The four of them arrived at a hotel near the bar.
They got two standard rooms.
Upon entering the room, Little Patten released Bob onto the bed, letting out a long breath of relief.
Bob turned over, hugging the quilt and falling asleep.
Mia leaned over, reached out to touch his forehead, and felt reassured as he didn’t seem to have a fever.
Louis Cox looked at her with downcast eyes.
He thought she appeared so caring and gentle.
It was quite rare.
It seed—
Mia had never treated him with such gentleness.
Whenever they were together, Mia always seed a bit resistant and cautious.
Louis Cox sighed quietly.
He turned around, picked up the TV remote, and turned on the TV.
It’s been more than half a month since the Chili Town earthquake.
News about the earthquake on TV wasn’t as overwhelming as before, but there was still a lot.
Even—
So channels were reporting entertainnt news.
The host looked serious, reporting the gossip that surfaced during the Chili Town earthquake.
...
At the end—
A picture of Koa Jackson and Lia Chester appeared on the screen.
"After the Chili Town earthquake, this news photo sparked heated discussions among netizens. The female doctor in the photo was praised by many as the most beautiful female doctor, and the male doctor beside her was revered by many as the top male figure in the dical community. Such a well-matched pair..."
"Bang!"
Before the host could finish, Mia directly grabbed the remote and turned off the TV.
