Chapter 217 - Found A Drinking Buddy

Hannah and her father arrived at the Hospital. Mrs. Miller was now being examined by the doctor. Hannah was nervous about her mother's condition.

She dialed Andrew's number. She didn't know where he was as of this moment. When Jake accompanied her to their tent, Andrew was not there.

Because of her drunkenness, Hannah immediately fell asleep. She woke up without Andrew by her side. Then she heard the commotion outside. Something happened to her mother.

In such a moment like this, it was Andrew who crossed Hannah's mind. She needed him here right now.

"Andrew, where are you? Answer your phone, please." Hannah mumbled as she kept on calling Andrew.

Meanwhile, Andrew was still in the Night Club, having a conversation with Liam when his phone rang. Complicated emotions flashed through his eyes upon seeing the Caller I.D.

It was Hannah who was calling him right now. Liam noticed the deep frown on Andrew's forehead. He was just watching his phone screen with no plan of answering the call.

"Is she your fiancee?" Liam asked him with intrigue as he saw Hannah's picture on Andrew's phone.

Andrew just bobbed his head as a response.

"I think she's already looking for you. Finally, she noticed that you were gone. Are you not going to answer her?" Liam asked again, observing Andrew's expression.

"I don't know," Andrew responded in a low voice.

The ringing stopped but Andrew's eyes were still glued on his phone screen. Liam just sighed deeply and shook his head.

"You are curious why she's calling you. Why don't you answer and find out." Liam urged him but Andrew was still reluctant to talk to her nor see her.

Hannah called Andrew several times but he didn't answer it. After a few seconds, Andrew received a message.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'s-wife-is-a-demon-god's-daughter_15595983206141505/found-a-drinking-buddy_50555981758778237 for visiting.

This time Andrew opened her message and read it.

[ Andrew, where are you? Why are you not answering your phone? Something happened to Mom. We are here at Star City District Hospital. I don't know what to do. Please come here if you read this. I need you here right now. ]

Andrew's eyes widened after reading her message. Though he was still mad and upset with her, he couldn't help but worry about her.

He turned to Liam and stood up. "I should go now. Something happened to my fiance's mother. They are in the hospital now in the neighboring city. Thank you for your time and for listening to me."

Liam looked at him with a smile "No need to mention it. I'm glad I was able to help you to ease your sadness somehow."

"You really love your fiancee. Despite what happened, you would still run to her side whenever she needed you." Liam couldn't help but be amazed by Andrew's genuine concern for his fiancee.

He was willing to set aside his unhappiness and anger just to give support to his fiancee who badly needed his presence in times like this.

"Have you experienced falling in love?" Andrew asked Liam out of the blue.

Liam just let out a husky laugh before shaking his head. "No, not yet."

Andrew gave him a meaningful smile and said, "Then you will understand it once you experience it. Once you become a victim of Love."

Liam chuckled again and raised his glass. "Well good luck to me. Falling in love is not my priority right now. But I will look forward to that, Bro."

Andrew called the attention of the bartender. He put down some cash to pay for his drinks, including Liam's drink.

"Keep the change. Please serve this man another best-selling drink here. I want to thank this guy for accompanying me tonight and entertaining me," Andrew said to the bartender.

"Noted sir!"

He was about to leave when Liam stopped him.

"Oh wait!" Liam picked up something inside his wallet. 

"By the way, this is my calling card. If you need someone to talk to, feel free to call me. Let's be a drinking buddy from now on."

Andrew gladly accepted his calling card. He looked down to see what was written on the card. He saw Liam's complete name, number, and profession.

He was taken aback for a moment. Then he gazed up to see Liam's face. 

"You're a college professor?" There was a hint of disbelief in Andrew's eyes.

"Hmm, yes, but not full-time yet. I'm doing this as a part-time job. Because I have important matters to attend to. I need to travel from one place to another." Liam explained to Andrew.

"No wonder you are also a great listener and adviser. Thank you once again. I just found a good and interesting Drinking Buddy tonight." Andrew expressed his gratitude to Liam.

Liam chuckled. "Me too. Your story is interesting too. Thank you for trusting me and sharing your personal life story with a stranger like me. Rest assured that what you said to me here would only remain here. No one would know."

"I'm glad to hear that. See you next time. I have to go now." Andrew bade his final goodbye to Liam.

"Ok. You're not drunk yet? Can you still drive?" Liam asked Andrew worriedly.

Andrew nodded, "Yes, I can. I'm just fine."

"Be Careful with your driving," Liam reminded him. He sounded like a concerned friend now.

"Yes, sir! I will," Andrew responded, before turning around and waved his hand at Liam.

Liam just smiled and shook his head while watching Andrew's retreating back.

Andrew was now driving his car going to the hospital where Hannah was waiting. He didn't reply to her message since he was already on the way.

However, something unexpected happened. It was still dawn and only a few cars were on the road. Because he was a little bit tipsy, Andrew failed to notice that he was already driving on the wrong side of the road.

A pink sports car was fast approaching him in front. Andrew saw it so he tried to change lanes to avoid bumping into that car. But everything happened so fast. He lost control of the steering wheel.

A loud crashing sound was heard in the area. Andrew's car crashed into a concrete post. The pink sports car also stopped when the driver witnessed what happened. The driver called for an ambulance right away.

Andrew was bleeding. It was caused by the impact of the crash. He was about to lose consciousness. But he still managed to see the woman who approached him in the driver's side's window.

She was saying something as she tapped the car window but Andrew couldn't hear her voice clearly. His vision became blurry, then he finally collapsed and lose consciousness.

"Oh my gosh! He fainted and his head is bleeding too much! What should I do? I'm in big trouble. If my family learns about this accident, they will surely ban me from driving my favorite sports car again!" The girl's problematic voice bubbled up in the area.

"My evil brother will not let me off this time. How unlucky I am to experience this as soon as I return!?" The girl continued complaining to herself.

Then she averted her gaze back to Andrew as she continued to tap his window, "Hey! Mister, wake up! Hang on! The ambulance is coming! Please don't die on me!"
