Chapter 202 - A Coward

"Who hasn't arrived yet?" Ferne opened the box and took out six bottles of red wine. "These are my collections. Noah, prepare the glasses."

Noah glanced at him.

Ferne sighed, "Fine, I'll do it myself."

"You are a coward, a coward in front of your wife, and also a coward in front of..."Randy looked at Noah and Noah also looked at him. Then, Randy stretched out his hand and said, "Hey, nice to meet you!"

Ferne glanced at Randy. Who was more cowardly?

The elevator was opened again. Emma and Jaquan walked in one after another. Janessa waved to Emma, "Where's Stony?"

"He is at home." Emma handed something to Janessa. It was a pair of gloves that Emma bought from an accessory shop. "This is for you. Hope you like it."

Janessa smiled heartily, "Thank you for the gift. I'm so happy and moved. I'll put them on now."

As she said, she had put on the gloves and smiled at Emma. "They fit. I like them very much. Thank you."

This was the first time Emma had sent such a cheap and shabby gift. However, the receiver was so happy and Emma couldn't help but smile sincerely.

Jaquan came without being invited, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Randy and Ferne invited him to have a seat and asked him curiously, "We have heard you two have been living together. Did anything happen?"

...

Armando also looked up with interest.

How dare you look up? It was all because of you!

Emma was pulled over by Janessa and sat with her. Since Jaquan had also come out, Janessa asked worriedly, "Is Stony at home alone?"

Emma shook her head, "No, someone is with him."

Before they left home, Collin came. He seemed to be a little surprised that Emma hadn't left yet. Knowing that she had a dinner party tonight, Collin promised to take good care of Stony at home and asked her to have fun outside with Jaquan.

When Jaquan was driven out by Collin, he was somewhat indignant and said, "This is my house, not his!"

Then they came out and stopped at an accessory shop by the roadside. Emma bought a pair of gloves. She walked slowly, and Jaquan went in with her. Everything in the shop was very cheap. Jaquan looked around and saw a row of hair ties.

Emma did not pay attention to what he had bought. She only remembered that the cashier said that he could pack it for free, but he refused, and put it into his pocket.

Janessa tilted her head and asked Emma, "Have you eaten yet? There will be a night snack later."

Emma nodded and she looked at Jaquan, who was with his friends. She thought that he would just send her over and leave. But now, he was chatting happily with his friends. Emma could hear him laughing from a distance. His voice was discernible. It was probably because she had been used to it these days.

Emma looked away and smiled at Emily as a greeting.

Emily handed a bag of melon seeds to her, and then handed the bubble tea to her, as if she was going to treat Emma well with all the best things she had. Emma couldn't help but smile. She seldom smiled. But this time, she smiled sincerely and warmly.

Janessa didn't know what they were smiling at and she couldn't help but ask, "What are you smiling at?"

Emma smiled and shook her head, "Nothing."

This was not the first time she had participated in such a gathering, but it was the first time she had truly enjoyed a gathering, enjoyed the hospitality form this group of people. They treated her like ... a friend.

A friend.

She felt that it was somewhat unbelievable. She couldn't make a sincere friend when she was rich in the past. However, although she was so depressed now, she got such beautiful and kind friends.

Although Jaquan was busy dealing with Randy and Ferne, he still looked to Emma. That expressionless woman was smiling. She looked very happy. She looked much gentler than she used to be. He stared at her for a moment and felt that she was quite pretty.

He was fascinated and quickly withdrew his gaze.

Randy found something in Jaquan's pocket and took it out. Before he could see it clearly, it was snatched away. "What is this?"

Jaquan snatched it and put it in his pocket. "Nothing special."

Randy didn't see it clearly. He really didn't know what it was but it felt like a circle. Randy looked at Jaquan suspiciously and asked, "Is it a condom?"

Jaquan glanced at him coldly.

He spat out the wine on Randy's face and said, "Go away!"

Janessa stood up and said, "Thank you for coming to this party tonight. It's my pleasure to have you all here. Let's drink a toast."

Ferne served the glasses and wine as a waiter. He raised his head with dissatisfaction and asked, "Armando, why don't you find a waiter to serve us? Can't you afford it?"

"We have you." Randy patted him on the shoulder. "You are the senior hotel manager. You are qualified for this job."

Hearing this, Ferne looked at Randy with anger.

Except Ferne, everyone raised their glasses happily. Everyone toasted each other but didn't toast Ferne. Only Noah toasted him, which made him sadder.

As everyone sat down, Christy blinked at Emily, then smiled and said, "I'm going to go out for a phone call."

Everyone nodded. Not long after, Noah stood up and said worriedly, "I'm going to find her."

"She can find the way back." Ferne said. He couldn't believe that Noah would care about his sister so much.

Noah quirked up his mouth, and before he left, he pinched the back of Ferne's neck.

Ferne felt painful.

Emily did not tell Christy that she was coming to Single Paradise tonight. It was Noah who told Christy. Hence, Christy went to the studio and told Emily about her thoughts.

They wanted to check if there was a "special room" in Single Paradise. Emily agreed and reminded Christy, "Be careful! Don't get yourself in danger."

When Christy heard that, she was astonished. After a while, she smiled and said, "I always think you are younger than me. But when I hear what you said just now, I realize that you are my boss."

Emily never thought of her as an employee or a subordinate. Just as she was about to explain, she found that Christy was just joking. After Christy finished her words, she took the little robot and walked away.

It was Eleven. But Emily didn't see it when Christy came in. Perhaps it was checking the room just now.

Janessa took out a set of cards and placed them right in front of her. Then, she cleaned up the snacks to the other side. Ferne said excitedly, "I am the expert on it."

Randy smiled maliciously. "Don't be too confident, or you will cry."

It seemed that Ferne was discouraged by Randy's words.

He nervously retracted his hand and saw Janessa smiling evilly, "Truth or dare!"

What was that?
