The Runaway Groom Chapter 1238
Rea's buddies were pulling her into the cabin again and mobbing her."Hey, it's your birthday, but you're skipping out?""What's with you today?""You're usually the life of the party, but you just look so distracted today." "Something on your mind? Don't tell me that your parents arranged another blind date for you?"Rea's friends did know her well.Still, Rea raised her glass and tried to change the subject. "Let's drink!""Nah, that's boring when there are so many hunks all around!" A buddy whooped and beckoned at one of the good-looking muscleheads. Taking Rea's hand and pressing it on the man's abs, the buddy giggled. "Just feel it. Isn't it nice? I've really splurged on this one, so why the long face?""Quit it," Rea snapped as she pulled her hand away. "I'm not interested."Her buddy clicked her tongue—Rea was always a free-spirit, which was why they had prepared this for her.In reality, she would have fun and cause trouble however she liked, but she was not that i

Was it really just a coincidence?At the same time, Rea tucked her hair behind her ear.She would definitely be upset if another man said that and would even snap at him for being narcissistic.With Stan, however, she merely smiled.While she was not following him, she happened to see Stan's yacht returning to the port and followed suit.Still, she would not deny that she had gone to his hotel on her own volition this morning…"Who's that man and that woman outside?" she asked.Stan returned the keys to the lessor and replied, "They're both my friends.""Oh. So who's the woman?" she asked tentatively.Stan looked outside and then back at Rea. "What? Is there something you'd like to know?"Rea laughed dryly. "No, I'm just curious…"Stan stared at her warily nonetheless. "Don't tell me that you're interested in James Cross?""What are you saying?" Rea huffed. "It's just that they look so close.""Why wouldn't they be? They're married.""Oh, they are?" Rea pointed at James a

"Got it," Stan said."Okay," Zachary replied.Stan waited until he hung up before telling Rea, "You can hang up now."Rea held on to his phone, which screen was locked as soon as the call ended. "What's your password?"Stan's eyes widened so much his eyeballs could fall out.She was actually asking for her phone's password? Did they even know each other that well? Wasn't that something only known to those closest to you, aside from yourself?Hell, even Stan's buddies James and Zachary didn't know."That's overstepping," Stan told Rea.Rea smiled. "What secrets are you hiding here?"Stan remained silent.That was when Rea held his phone right in front of his face, and the screen unlocked automatically."I knew it—you're using facial recognition."As Stan remained speechless, Rea went on, "Well, everyone's using that or fingerprint recognition for convenience these days, since it spares the hassle of typing passwords. Just a guess, since I know you're the busy type."That me

Stan tried his best to hide his embarrassment. "D-Don't listen to her."However, the harder he tried, the more he was exposing himself in Rea's eyes."Tut, tut… I wouldn't have been able to tell," she giggled. "Wait, are you a virgin too?"Erin couldn't help laughing out loud, while James was staring at Rea in shock.She was certainly… direct!Still, Stan's fingers tightened around the steering wheel just then. "Keep yapping and you're out of my car. We're not close friends anyway."Rea pouted. "Do you have to be so petty?"Stan snorted coolly. "Am I supposed to fawn over you when you're mocking me here?"Rea reclined nonchalantly against her seat. "I'm just kidding. Don't be so serious."She smiled as Stan turned to glare at her.Stan blinked—the way she smiled was simply gorgeous.He quickly turned away, afraid to keep looking.Nonetheless, be it tired or drunk, Rea dozed off, leaving Stan speechless—he really had never met a girl like her before!"I think she drank a lo

Stan smiled in wry amusement. "Should I thank you for being interested too?"Rea straightened herself and waved his hand off. "That's unnecessary."Zachary chuckled and said, "You can stay and eat with us."Rea refused. "Nope. I'd rather not have a certain man get the wrong idea that I'm interested in him. He's a blockhead and extremely boring."Stan was speechless, since she was clearly talking about him.Zachary chuckled. "Nah, he's not that narcissistic. And I'm inviting you to stay because you're Ken's cousin, and it's not safe traveling alone when you're drunk. We can send you home after dinner.""Exactly. It's already dinner time," Erin agreed.Seeing that things were quite lively, Rea nodded. "Then I shall impose.""Alright, let's go in," Zachary smiled.They had a reservation in the best private room, and as they took their seats, the manager walked up to Zachary, arching his back and asking under his breath, "Shall I tell the kitchen to start cooking?""Wait, not eve

Isaac was a busy man, and with everyone here, it wouldn't do with no one at the office.Zachary knew that very well.Still, Stan said, "They could stay a few more days if they like. I'm heading back tomorrow, and I've booked my flight already.""What's the rush?" Zachary asked."I have nothing to do here," Stan shrugged. "And you're all just hanging out with your better halves, messing with me whenever you can. I should just go back to work—work shall be my better half for the rest of my life.""Isaac appreciates that," Zahcary nodded. "He hasn't squeezed you enough, and you're now squeezing yourself, even offering the rest of your life… Man, why can't I have someone like you? If I did, life would be so easy, and I can take Lulu and Star to travel around the world, enjoying life.""Isn't having a wife and child enough?" James chuckled. "You're asking for too much."Zachry retorted, "All work and no play and all that. Also, as long as there's enough money.""But we can walk away

Rea felt at once awkward and envious.She felt awkward because she couldn't really click with them, since they weren't that close.She felt envious because they were close, getting along so well whether they were colleagues or friends.And the women had good skin, a sign of leading happy lives.Errin saw Rea's troubled look just then, and went over to chat her up."Let's have a toast," she said, raising her glass of milk. "Sorry, can't drink alcohol at the moment.""Pleasure to meet you." Rea nodded, pouring herself a drink and turning to glance at the others. "Pleasure to meet all of you.""It's a pleasure to meet you too," Lulu said, and turned towards Irene, "Let's have a toast."She was referring to just the ladies, and Irene nodded in agreement.As she picked up her glass, Baby held out his hand too.Irene smiled and passed him a glass of milk instead. "You can't drink that. Here, have some milk."Baby refused, stubbornly reaching for Irene's glass of wine.Isaac pic

Irene said, "Good idea. I was thinking about visiting Star."Tommy tugged on her hand. "I want to see Star too, Mommy."Erin patted his head and smiled, but said nothing."Let's go."Their driver soon arrived, and they all got in, heading to Zachary's house.-Stan was driving in silence, and Rea was not bothered to talk when he was being cold.She folded her arms before her chest, keeping her eyes closed and pretending to nap.She was tired anyway from running away for an entire day.When Stan turned to find her eyes closed, he asked, "Are you sleepy?""Yeah," she replied, still keeping her eyes closed."Don't fall asleep," he warned. "We'll reach your home soon."Rea opened her eyes and turned to stare at him. "What, you think I'd stay in your car and refuse to leave?""What makes you think that?" Stan exclaimed in surprise.He certainly did not think that, as he thought that she would feel comfortable if she actually fell asleep, and he had to wake her.It would be fa
