Chapter 120
The smile on Natasha's face remained, and she looked innocent and lovely. "I pleaded with my family for a long time before I was allowed to come over and have fun at this party Kashton prepared for Carlos, to celebrate his last bachelor night. I've never been to a nightclub before, so I'm feeling a bit out of place," she explained sweetly. Then, she asked, "Do you want to go to Carlos' private room? I'll take you there."
"It's okay, my friends are waiting for me. I just came out to get some fresh air." Considering Kashton was there, Carlos must be there. They had their own bachelorette party, so she didn't want to interrupt each other's festivities.
"Well, I'll go in first. I'll leave after a short while anyway," Natasha said sweetly, pushing her wheelchair away.
Mikayla turned to watch Natasha leave, looking at her delicate and fragile appearance. Ever since the first time Mikayla saw her, there had always been a sweet smile on her face. Anyone who looked at her felt a desire to protect her. In this noisy and chaotic world, she seemed like a clear spring that drew people's affection. However, nobody knew if she was truly as innocent as she appeared to others.
After a while, Mikayla began to sober up. Heading to her original destination, she went to the restroom. After wandering outside for a while, assuming Kashton had left, Mikayla made her way back to the private room. It was true that drunk people would feel much more sober after walking a few laps.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

The door of the private room was pushed open, and Juliet thought it was Mikayla or Xavier who returned. However, it turned out to be Elvis!
Juliet was so angry. She cursed inwardly, 'Damn, Kashton's the only person who would meddle with others' relationships. He's so fucking blind to think that Elvis and I would be a great match.'
"Kashton, you were looking for me?" Elvis pushed open the door of the private room and walked in, only to see Juliet alone.
Juliet was speechless. She highly doubted that Elvis' IQ was only that of a three-year-old. How could he believe what Kashton said? "I wasn't looking for you!" Juliet sat on the couch with her legs crossed and said in a bad temper.
"Okay!" Hearing her words, Elvis turned around and left.
"Hey, you're really leaving?" Juliet didn't know whether she was considered servile or not. She could be regarded as a beauty, but always being ignored by men made her begin to doubt whether there was something wrong with her.
Elvis stopped, hesitated, and turned around. "What's the matter?"
In her high heels, Juliet marched angrily toward Elvis at the door. "Can you persuade your buddy to stop trying to be a matchmaker?" Seeing that Elvis didn't understand, Juliet rephrased her words again. "Your good buddy, Kashton! He just told me a bunch of nice things about you, asking me to be with you. However, I already have a boyfriend, and I've loved him for many years!"
"Hmm, I see." Elvis looked at Juliet condescendingly as he finally understood what she meant.
"I'm glad you understand." Seeing that Brantley had finally accepted her and there was further progress, she didn't want Kashton to mess things up.
Mikayla opened the door and saw Elvis and Juliet standing together, and they were very close to each other. Mikayla couldn't believe her eyes. She blinked and suspected that she was still drunk. But after a few more glances, it was still the same. "What are you guys doing?"
Juliet still felt frustrated after she vented at Elvis. When she was about to curse, she saw Mikayla pushing the door open from outside. She hurriedly jumped away, exclaiming, "I'm innocent! Nothing happened between him and me!"
"I'm leaving," Elvis said coldly, acknowledging Mikayla before he bypassed her at the door and left.
When the door of the private room closed automatically, Mikayla sat back on the couch. "Wasn't it Kashton who came over? Why is Elvis here?"
Juliet sighed and couldn't help but complain, "It's that damn Kashton! Trying to introduce that aloof Elvis to me!" Then she asked, "Mikayla, do you think I'm pretty?"
Mikayla replied, "Yes, you're pretty."
Juliet said, "Then he must have been captivated by my beauty."
"You're really getting ahead of yourself." Mikayla looked at Juliet and thought, 'I don't know what the hell they're doing! Carlos said that Elvis was not suitable for Juliet, and now Kashton wanted to get Elvis and Juliet together.'
"What are you thinking about?" Juliet threw a popcorn at Mikayla. "Drink! Keep drinking!"
Mikayla said, "Alright! Let's seize the last moment, but we should go back soon. Otherwise, tomorrow's wedding will have to find a replacement for me."
"Yes! If Mikayla doesn't get married tomorrow, I'll have to laugh my head off!" With that, Juliet picked up her glass and drank it all in one go.
At that moment, Xavier came back and joined them in the battle. Juliet led them, and they enthusiastically began playing games. The smell of alcohol in the private room was getting stronger and stronger.
Mikayla, who had always been very proactive, felt dizzy at the moment. If she continued to drink like that, she might as well start a livestream. She was about to ask them to leave. Looking at the two lying on the couch, they were no better than her.
Juliet stood up from the sofa. Seeing that Mikayla was about to leave, she also got up. After all, Juliet often hung out at nightclubs. While she was not a heavy drinker, she had a higher tolerance than the other two. Moreover, she couldn't afford to get drunk at that moment.
"Bring Xavier along too." Mikayla, who was supported by Juliet, glanced at Xavier who was still lying on the couch.
Juliet said, "I'll send you back first.
He will go home when he sobers up. Besides, even if a woman takes a fancy to this kid, he won't be at any disadvantage." Mikayla's senses told her that Juliet seemed to be right. "Let's go!" Juliet said. Juliet was also drunk and still wanted to take care of others.
"Julie!" Mikayla called, and Juliet responded. "If you can, break up with Brantley." These were the words Mikayla had wanted to say for so long but failed.
"Mikayla, people don't understand me, now even you don't understand me either?" Juliet said, "I've loved him for so many years, and after all this time he finally agreed to give us a chance. Do I have to give up just like that?"
Hearing her voice choke up, Mikayla felt bad. "Okay, I'll stop talking!"
After taking a few steps, Mikayla felt dizzy, the swaying made her feel nauseous...
