Stanford looked at her in a daze. After a moment, he put down the wine bottle from his hand reluctantly.
He whispered, “Okey-dokey.”
A trace of grievance was detected from his tone.
Phoebe was dumbfounded.
She gaped at Stanford in surprise and couldn’t return to her senses at all. She couldn’t believe that her aloof God would speak to her in such a soft and aggrieved and… adorable tone.
She felt butterflies in her tummy.
Florence gaped at her brother and couldn’t believe what she had seen as well.
She wondered if she had misheard anything just now.
Did her brother actually say “okey-dokey”?
He wasn’t himself at all. Florence couldn’t take it for the moment.
It wasn’t until then did she realize why Ernest wasn’t willing to let her help Phoebe. Besides Roan being a man, Ernest had guessed that Stanford would trouble Phoebe.
Collin couldn’t help Stanford, so he went to help Roan.
Florence only needed to watch the fun.
Collin was also stunned.
He wondered why Stanford had become like this. He couldn’t believe his eyes or ears at all. He wanted to splash a basin of cold water on Stanford, so he could sober up and compose himself.
However, before Collin took any action, he saw another jaw-dropping scene.
Stanford held Phoebe’s waist with one hand, pressed his head on her shoulder, and rubbed against it.
He whispered, “Phoebe, you are so soft. I like hugging you so much.”
Phoebe stiffened.
She widened her eyes and looked at the man who was leaning on her shoulder in disbelief as if she had seen a ghost.
She wondered if this man was possessed.
Other people watching the fun were also shocked. Florence and Collin had failed to find any word to describe their current thoughts.
When Phoebe was still in a daze, Stanford leaned against her and moved up his handsome face bit by bit.
Phoebe’s body tightened. “What… What are you doing?”
Stanford gazed at her. There seemed to be flames in his eyes.
“Let’s kiss.”
He said this softly while playing cute!
Phoebe almost exploded.
Her face was so red, as if her cheeks were bleeding. She was completely taken aback and had no idea how to deal with Stanford under such a circumstance.
He was way too different from the man in her impression.
She couldn’t do anything to him.
Collin finally came back to his senses after being agape for a long time.
He said with a wicked smile, “This scene is so familiar. A few days ago, you also asked Mr. Fraser to kiss you and hug you, Miss Jenkins. It seems Mr. Fraser is a good learner. Even he’s drunk, he still could remember it.”
Phoebe couldn’t utter a word at all.
Her face was burning hot. She felt so embarrassed that she wished to vanish right away.
She had been embarrassed already, but Collin added fuel to the fire and mentioned what had happened that night.
The worst was that Phoebe still remembered what she had done that night.
In a hurry, Phoebe pushed away Stanford, who almost kissed her.
However, as soon as she pushed him away a little bit, he clung to her again, hugging her more tightly.
He said stubbornly, “I feel cozy when hugging you. Let me hug you. Never stop.”
Phoebe was silent.
She felt so ashamed.
She blushed so hard that she dared not look at Stanford, but her heart was pounding so fast that it almost popped out of her chest. It was the first time for her to see this side of Stanford. She couldn’t resist his intimacy with her at all.
The other people on the scene, except Ernest, stiffened.
At that moment, Florence and Collin didn’t want to admit that they knew Stanford.
Besides, Stanford treated Phoebe in this way and took advantage of her after he had got drunk, which was way too inappropriate.
Florence hesitated for a moment and decided to pull her brother away.
“Phoebe, you can let me take care of my brother. I’ll take him to rest.”
Florence wanted to walk over.
Before she got closer, Stanford seemed to sense something. He hugged Phoebe more tightly.
Then he said in a grievance, “I want to hug you only. Phoebe, let me hug you.”
His tone almost drove others crazy.
Phoebe raised her hand, pulled out her phone, and gave it to Florence.
Florence was confused, “What for?”
Phoebe looked at the clingy man beside her, smiling shyly and joyfully.
“Please record this scene for me. After Mr. Fraser wakes up, I’ll show it to him.”
Florence was speechless, wondering how her brother would react when seeing it and if he would have an emotional break down.
Phoebe added, “In the future, I’ll ask him to play cute again when he’s awake. I look forward to seeing it.”
Looking at Phoebe, Florence didn’t know what to say.
She admired Phoebe for having such a high tolerance. Phoebe was shy last second, but the next second, she started planning how to tease Stanford in the future.
No wonder Stanford had fallen for Phoebe.
However, Florence didn’t have any objection at all.
She also wanted to see her brother’s reaction after he woke up and saw this video clip.
It must be quite hilarious.
Florence immediately started recording the video clip.
Collin was standing aside in helplessness. He felt at a lost and didn’t know how things would go in the future.
He could foresee a future full of shame.
He walked to Roan helplessly, helped him up, and left this place where his heart was broken.
There were a few knocks on the door.
Timothy was standing at the door.
He said to Ernest respectfully, “Excuse me, Mr. Hawkins. According to the latest news, Kieran Harris has set off to go back to the Harris family.”
Ernest squinted, smiling like a predator.
His prey had stepped into the trap.
He turned to Florence and said, “Let’s set off for Riverside City now.”
Florence was surprised. Taking a look at Stanford, who was unconscious but still clinging to Phoebe’s body, she was in a dilemma.
“What should we do with Stanford then?”
Ernest directly said, “Take him with us. He should sober up when we arrive.”
Florence’s lips twitched. She looked at Stanford worriedly.
How could she put him into the car when he was so drunk?
She asked Phoebe, “Phoebe, can you take care of him on the way?”
Stanford was so clingy to Phoebe now. It meant during the time before Stanford sobered up, he would be like this all along.
Phoebe nodded without any hesitation.
“I’m OK. Business matters.”
They had been waiting for Kieran to go home. Now he finally set off, so they couldn’t delay it.
As for Stanford…
Phoebe looked at the man who was hugging her tightly.
She whispered, “Let’s get into the car, shall we?”
