However, Carlisle did not want to sound too confident.
He was changing history, which would cause other historical events to change.
Alumni Network may not have a smooth road ahead of it.
After a few rounds of drinks, the ground around them was littered with empty beer bottles.
Sean had drunk a little too much, and he was in a tipsy state when he got a call from Lily.
He hiccuped. "What is it?"
"Aren't you back at the dormitory yet?" Lily sounded rather cold.
Sean hiccuped again and said, "N-not yet!"
"Have you been drinking?"
"I've been drinking with Carl!" Sean hiccuped as he spoke.
"Don't drink too much. It's already so late, and it's not safe out there. I'll come and get="
"Aren't you being a little too bossy?" Sean interrupted her, frowning.
He had wanted to come out drinking with Carlisle last week, but the latter had been busy.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
It was a rare opportunity to drink with Carlisle, but now Lily was trying to boss him around. It wasn't like he was out drinking with those raucous friends of his from university.
Carlisle was the guy who was teaching him to earn money. He was almost like a foster father
to Sean.
Lily was momentarily stunned, and then her voice turned icy. "I'm not trying to boss you around. I'm just worried about you!"
Last week, one of the upperclassmen in the same course had been wandering outside late at night when he was robbed. Although he tried to fight back, they had stabbed him. He was still in the ICU and wasn't out of danger yet.
Sean went to the office every day after school and would only return to the university at around 9:00 pm.
After getting back to the dormitory, Sean would call Lily punctually to talk to her.
If Lily didn't get a call by 9:10 pm, she would call him first.
Sometimes, Sean fell asleep as soon as he got back to the dormitory because he was too tired.
If Lily couldn't get through to Sean's phone, she would call his roommate to check if he had returned safely.
She had called Sean just now, but he hadn't picked up, so she had called his roommate. He had told her that Sean wasn't back yet.
Lily had been so worried that she could not sit still. She had been calling relentlessly.
She had finally gotten through to Sean, only to find him being annoyed at her for being bossy!
"I'm hanging up." Sean picked up his glass to toast Gareth. "Come on, Gareth. Let's go for one more!"
Carlisle's alcohol tolerance wasn't as high as Gareth's, and Gareth had forced him to drink several glasses just now. Sean wanted to avenge Carlisle.
Besides, it was Sunday the next day, and he had no classes. It would be alright, even if he drank a little too much.
Gareth clinked glasses with Sean, and a smile played about his lips as he asked, "Did your girlfriend call?"
Sean nodded and looked displeased as he said, "We aren't even married yet, and she's already starting to boss me around. Can you imagine what she'll be like when we are married?"
Gareth did not know what Lily had said on the phone, so he just nodded and said, "You have to make sure to keep your wits about you when choosing a girlfriend.
"It's no fun if she doesn't know what she should keep her nose out of. When you start having to socialize more for business, it's going to be troublesome if she has her eye on you all the time."
Sean slapped his thigh. "You're absolutely right. My mother is always bossing my father around, and they argue very often. Honestly, I'm like my father, and I don't like being told what to do!"
Gareth nodded in agreement. "I don't like having to cater to others!"
"Ahem... We're out of beer!" Carlisle suddenly coughed.
Gareth and Sean looked at the steakhouse owner and shouted, "Let's have some more beer!"
