Semua Bab Marrying My Vegetative Husband: Bab 61 - Bab 70

The air in the bar was muddy with smoke. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol tainted the air as the deafening music roared through the dance floor. The dance floor was filled with men and women, swaying their bodies wildly to the beat of the music. Some women were even leaning on young men, exchanging endless sweet talk with each other. Adrian frowned as he took in the surroundings while walking with Adeline towards the elevator. He made sure to keep Adeline separated from most of the crowd. A slightly stout middle-aged man drunkenly staggered towards Adeline. Blocking her way, he hissed with a breath full of alcohol, "Hey gorgeous, come to have a drink with me. I'll guarantee that you'll like what happens after..." As he was speaking, he reached out to grab her hand. "Mister, you're drunk!" Adeline stepped one step aside and avoided the man's tubby hand, letting them grasp nothing. The man was too drunk to detect Adeline's resistance. He continued to give her a

As Adeline reached the restaurant, she spotted Culver and Alan getting out of their cars and were heading in her direction.  "Wow, Adeline, the men you're getting acquainted with these days are certainly getting hotter and hotter..." She gasped in awe when she saw how good-looking both Culver and Alan were.  "Stop daydreaming! People that look like them are the most dangerous," Adeline whispered softly into Chloe's ear. Chloe stuck out her tongue at her after that.  "Miss Simpson, sorry for being late..." Culver apologized.  Alan was wearing a mask as usual, looking impassive. "I don't know what your food preferences are, so I picked this restaurant on a whim. The food here's really good, I promise both of you will love it," Adeline said with a faint smile. Culver eyed Alan and said with a smile, "Well then, I guess we'll find out if that's true soon enough." With that, Adeline led them into a private dining room in the restaurant. 

"Mr. Lester, I'll head back home first then. Thanks for 'rescuing' me just now!" Chloe was instantly alive the immediate moment she left the restaurant.  Culver looked at Chloe amusingly and asked, "Didn't you say that you would accompany me to my office? Why are you heading back now all of a sudden?" Chloe was now walking along the streets happily. Noticing Culver's gaze on her, she asked puzzledly, "Wasn't that an excuse you came up with in order to get out of the awkward situation back there?"   "Ha ha..." Culver didn't expect that Chloe would have thought that what he said was an excuse. He said to her attentively, "I really do have something to deal with in the office. As for you, I was worried that you'll get sick from stuffing more food down your throat." Chloe combed her hair awkwardly, then smiled and said, "I had no idea what I was saying just now. Just forget all about it. Your friend was really cold and aloof. I'm afraid that I would freeze to

Having been caught by his employee, Culver coughed awkwardly. Realizing that he had gotten distracted by Chloe, Culver immediately composed himself and spoke to the executives that had entered into his office, "This report is good. I'll take a look at it in detail again and hand it to the CEO. You can all clock off work now." The executives nodded in compliance. As they walked out of the office, they instinctively glanced at the woman who was sauntering across Culver's office, hypothesizing their relationship status in their hearts. After his workers left, Chloe turned to Culver and said, "Culver, your office is unexpectedly big, and looking at the night view with this tower window is just breathtaking." Culver spun the pen in his hand while his gaze lingered on Chloe. Gently, he said, "If you like it, you can come anytime you want to." "Ha ha...," Chloe chuckled. Chloe walked towards a chair at a corner and sat down. Looking at Culver, she waved her

"Ha ha..." "Culver, we just sealed the deal that you won't bully me anymore, remember?" Chloe said outrageously, ignoring Culver's ashen face.  "Wow, Chloe, you're a really good actress. I fell hard for your acting skills," Culver said as he clenched his jaws. "Thank you for your compliment, Culver. I also do think the same way about my acting skills. It seems to be getting better," Chloe said with a smile. Culver rubbed the space between his brows and wondered why he even asked Chloe to tag along with him to the office in the first place.  "I really did not expect you to have such great acting skills. Do you want me to recommend some film production companies to you?" Culver asked and chuckled. Chloe was slightly taken aback by Culver's kind suggestion, "Are you trying to fool me again?" Chloe was skeptical.  "Why would I? I just felt that it would be a pity and a loss if you make acting as your career," Culver replied. An idea suddenly
