Chapter 65 Am I That Unpresentable?

• “Cora, this alcohol is strong! It’s much more terrible than you imagined. With crimson eyes, Eason looked at her sincerely. These playboys were accustomed to wild parties, and the punishment of simple alcohol meant little to them. There must be something else in it. Eason was concerned that Cora would be bullied by them after drinking it. So, even if it meant breaking things off with Mia, he didn’t want Cora to drink this concoction. However, Cora was unusually stubborn. “This is not your concern, Mr. Patton.” She was clearly drawing a line between Eason and her, as she was even unwilling to call him by his name. Eason felt as if his heart were torn apart. Cora raised the drink to her l*ps.
• With all her attention on the drink, she planned to quickly return to her room and lock herself in after drinking it to avoid any further trouble. She didn’t notice the commotion around her or the slightly surprised voice of Jane. “Byron?” Then, before Cora could react, the gla*s in front of her were suddenly taken away, and her l*ps were covered by another. She caught a familiar scent of tobacco mixed with a hint of aftershave. When she came back to her senses, the man’s lips had already left hers, but his eyes remained inscrutable. The whole scene happened so fast that the others didn’t fully understand what had occurred. “Mr. Hansen kissed Cora in front of Jane!” “Which man doesn’t like beauty?"Mr. Hansen is no exception.
• There is no need to make a big fuss about it.” “But Mr. Hansen is Mr. Patton’s uncle." In short, except for the clear discontent in Jane’s and Eason’s eyes, the others were somewhat stunned. “It’s just a game. Don’t make it a mess.” With these cold words, Byron turned and left the deck. As Cora looked at his retreating figure, her surprise had not yet dissipated. She didn’t expect Byron to kiss her in front of Jane. However, she didn’t believe that he did it for her. After all, when she was in a dilemma earlier, he showed no concern at all. He must have done it for Eason, unwilling to see him and Mia break up. With this thought in mind, Cora quietly left the deck. She had no interest in participating in these silly games any longer.
