Chapter 41
Aside from Katherine, who was surprised by the sudden turn of events, Alice, who had been drinking a bit too much, was also frightened that she hid in Luke's arms.
But, once she'd settled down, Alice didn't think much of it and silently urged Katherine with a wink as if saying, ‘Kiss him.You can do it!"
For a moment, Katherine's mind had gone utterly blank.
She realized that she had been married to Zack for three years, yet their most intimate moment was when he held her hand on their wedding day.
Now, unexpectedly, three months after their divorce, she accidentally bumped into Zack.
To prevent herself from falling, she had no choice but to hold on to his shoulder. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
With this intimate position, people who would stumble upon them might assume they were loving couples.
Thinking about it, she realized that it was quite embarrassing.
When she looked at the side, she noticed Alice winking at her vigorously, which made her eyes seem a little contorted.
However, she just glanced at her friend.
After she gathered her thoughts for half a second, she finally made a decision.
Although Zack stood at 1.8 meters, her 1.68 meters height was still a bit inferior to his, but she was wearing heels today.
The distance between them had lessened a bit.
She tiptoed and effortlessly kissed his cold, thin lips.
Katherine immediately let go of his lips and abruptly stepped away from him.
Then she naughtily said to Alice, "I don't mind playing games.’’
Though her lips curled into a playful smile, still her voice sounded flat, devoid of any emotion, as if unaffected by the fact that she just kissed her ex-husband.
Katherine took a step back and glanced at him with a faint smile on her face.
Tilting her head, she then raised an eyebrow at Alice and asked, "Aren't we going to another venue?"
Alice was quite bewildered by Katherine's audacity.
Just now, she had a feeling that she was hallucinating.
She didn't even anticipate that Katherine would really kiss her ex-husband.
Luke realized that the woman in his arms remained motionless.
He reached out his hand and drew her in.
He then whispered, "All right, let's go."
When Alice snapped back to reality, she saw that Katherine had already walked some distance.
With an air of nonchalance, Katherine sashayed.
Her pink skirt swayed with each stride she made.
"Oh, okay” Alice murmured, still absentminded.
Katherine drank a bit and felt a little tipsy, so she decided to leave her red Ferrari and rode in Luke's car.
For Alice, what happened moments ago was beyond her expectation.
Hence, she was so shocked that she couldn't quickly gather her senses back.
Prompted by her excitement for gossip, she didn't even bother to sit beside Luke and eagerly ran to the back seat where Katherine was sitting.
Looking at Katherine with curiosity in her eyes, Alice then reached out and touched her forehead.
"Are you crazy?"
Katherine, who was gazing out of the window, shoved her hand and asked exasperatedly, "What are you doing?"
However, Alice didn't answer her but asked back, "Did you recognize the person you kissed just now?"
Katherine quietly glanced at her.
Even though she seemed unaffected by it, she still felt a bit disgusted.
She answered, "It's Zack, my ex-husband.What's the matter? Is there a problem?"
Alice nodded firmly.
"What do you think? Of course, there is a problem.A major problem! If I recall correctly, you and Zack have been married for three years, and not even once did he bother to sit on the bed in your master's bedroom! But now, when you two were divorced, you initiated a kiss with him! My God! This is so frightening!"
Although these words were not too harsh, Katherine's heart still jolted a bit.
"Actually, when I kissed him, I just used him, that's all"
Alice was astonished for a split second.
Feeling somewhat amused and proud, she couldn't help but give Katherine a thumbs up.
"You're truly awesome! You really are my friend!"
Katherine massaged her temples and said, "Stop yelling.Let me rest for a bit.’
"Okay, I will obey your orders!"
Alice quickly complied with a foolish look.
Tilting her head, Katherine chuckled quietly at Alice, who was sitting beside her.
She was totally amused with her silliness.
If Alice's fans saw her like this, Katherine wasn't sure if they would laugh or cry at her.
Meanwhile, Sean had finished two glasses of red wine, but Zack, who said he was on his way, had not yet shown up.
He yanked his tie in irritation and elbowed Charles beside him.
Then he impatiently said, "Give Zack a call.I'm worried he is fascinated by some beauty in a private room that he forgot we are waiting for him.It's been more than ten minutes since we arrived, and he still hasn't come!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the private room was pushed open by someone.
It was Zack, who should have arrived fifteen minutes ago.
Looking at him, one could see that his mood was extremely terrible.
Seeing this, Sean immediately handed him a glass of red wine.
"Three glasses.’’
