Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back

Chapter 538 I Can't Hold You Up

Barton fell silent once more upon hearing that Zoe was about to leave. In an instant, the atmosphere became very uncomfortable. Acknowledging the elephant in the room, Zoe smiled and asked Barton, "Mr. Xiao, aren't you leaving yet? I still have some work to do, but I'll finish as soon as possible. This will be quick."

"Are you available right now?" Barton asked Zoe. "Would you like to have a drink with me?"

"I beg your pardon?" Zoe asked in disbelief. She wanted to hear it again because she thought that she might have misheard Barton's invitation.

As a reply, Barton glanced at her and smiled, "What? Are you really going to refuse my offer? It's just a drink."

"No, I mean...I..." Zoe kept her eyes fixed at Barton, feeling awkward.

"All right, I've heard enough. Come on, let's go." At that moment, Barton took Zoe's hand and pulled her straight out of the office.

Not long after, the two of them got in the car. But somehow, the air in the car seemed to have frozen because no o

th a shy look on her face, she faced Barton and said, "It's getting late. Let me just drive you home."

"No, I'm not drunk. I'm telling the truth, Zoe, you are very beautiful.

In fact, I really like you. But the age gap is just too big between us. I mean, I can't hold you up..."

However, even before Barton could finish his words, Zoe's face flashed a trace of astonishment. Looking at the drunk man, she could not help but flush even more.

"Mr. Xiao, what did you just say?" Zoe asked in disbelief.

At that moment, Barton wasn't able to hold himself up and fell on the table due to intoxication. Zoe, on the other hand, grabbed him by the arm and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xiao, what do you mean by that?"

Barton bent over the table and began to snore like a pig.

Zoe looked at Barton and smiled bitterly.

Barton fell asleep after saying that. Zoe, on the other hand, was totally dumbfounded.

At that moment, it appeared that she had no choice but to stand up and pay the bill.
