Chapter 34 An Invitation from Friends. The Accident in the Bar.
Sonia stared at him for a long time. Dixon knew what she was thinking and sneered at her. "Why? Are you afraid of me?" Sonia suddenly clenched her fist and sat down. Since she couldn't escape from him, why couldn't she just confront him face to face? At this moment, the lights happened to hit him. And in the dim light, she saw the eyes on Dixon's face. His sight cto her through countless memories, which was cold and cruel with a chill that made her feel frightened. Sonia sat down and smiled at Dixon and Floyd. "I can't stay too long. There is someone waiting forat other booths." Floyd smiled and asked: "Oh? Is it a man or a woman?" Sonia didn't answer his question. She just sat down and rolled the dice with Floyd. Dixon's sight from the opposite kept falling on her all the time, as if he was searching an answer from her.
It seemed that he wanted to see through the thoughts she hid.
Sonia laughed at herself. Dixon, when I used to gather in front of you every day, you refused to pay any attention to me. But now, you look interested in me.

Being taken advantage of like this, Sonia was stunned. She looked up at Floyd. After she cto her senses, she chuckled: "Master Floyd, do you want to mess with your brother's ex-wife?" Floyd's eyes looked dark, and his voice was low. His handsface looked somehow deep and had an expression that Sonia couldn't understand. "You should feel lucky that you are Dixon's ex-wife... Otherwise, you will never sit besideso safely like now." Sonia's heart trembled for a second. Then, she cto her senses and giggled: "I don't deserve Master Floyd's appreciation.
I am so humble now, and I don't deserve to catch your attention..." Floyd was stunned and said in a low voice: "But in those years..." "Yeah..." Sonia seemed to have fallen into her memories. And the corners of her eyes looked wet and red. "How noble I was by then!" The voice dragged on, and when it cto the ground, it brought a storm of memories. Sonia winked at Floyd. "Turns out nothing ever matters.
I used to own so many things, but in the end, there was nothing left.
It is said that twill prove everything, but it is also tthat does not spare anyone." Floyd just stared at Sonia like that, and his eyes made Dixon irritable.
Didn't Floyd know that Sonia was his ex-wife? Why is he still staring at her with such hot eyes? Dixon sneered. He really underestimated Sonia's skill to seduce men.
Then, he let the waiter cforward and fill Sonia's cup with wine. Suddenly, he shook his glass at Sonia.
Just that simple move of him made Sonia fall into the horrible memories from the past.
In those years, she was also in such a crazy and intoxicating bar. She had no intention of having fun. She just sat on the sofa, looking noble and elegant with a cold and clear temperament. All the men focused on her, but no one dared to cforward to hit on her. Only Dixon raised his eyebrows, smiled at her and raised his glasses at a distance with several people sitting between them.
Just like what is described in a lyric, at that time, the free eyes under the bar light suddenly met. As their eyes fell on each other, Sonia knew that all the people here were not her friends, except for that man, who was by no means a mediocre person.

Dixon raised his glass and smiled at her with the rest of the people on the booth sitting between them. At that moment, her heart forgot to pump.
She forced herself to stop trembling and raised her glass to respond. Then she drank the wine. Under the stimulation of alcohol, she finally becrational.
Floyd saw Sonia like this and was slightly appalled. "You and Dixon..." "There is nothing left between us." Sonia quickly interrupted Floyd's words and wanted to stand up. But the alcohol made her a little clumsy. Suddenly getting up made the dizziness flood into her brain, and her body swayed. Dixon's pupils shrank and watched her be about to fall down.
However, the unexpected touching feeling caught up to her. Sonia found that someone got her. Queenie's voice sounded near her ear. "I knew you would be trapped here!" Sonia looked up in consternation and found that there was another man standing beside Queenie, who was raising his chin at Dixon. "Mr. Borris, what a coincidence!" "President Yates..." Dixon quickly reacted the situation. This man should be Queenie's immediate superior. So he smiled at him inscrutably. "I didn't expect to run into you today." "I am helping Queenie cand pick up a friend." Jarvis looked at Sonia. "I wonder if you have finished catching up." Dixon and Floyd were both shocked. Jarvis and Queenie? Sonia's friend seemed to have a powerful backer.
Everyone had different thoughts about this, but Sonia had no tto take care of it. She stood firm and lowered her head slightly, complaining in her heart. "Why the hell did Queenie find such a big shot to get her back? It's really scary! However, Jarvis showing up here did save her. Sonia hurriedly smiled and said to Dixon and Floyd: "Then I will go back to my booth first. If Master Floyd wants to find me, let's have fun next time." After finishing her words, she directly bypassed Jarvis and walked back. Don't be kidding her. This is the man even Queenie is afraid of. She definitely needs to keep her distance.
Jarvis paced back slowly. Queenie said secretly in a low voice: "I was afraid that my status was not enough to intimidate them, so I sent President Yates. How about that?" Sonia clutched her chest. "There was too much intimidation. Don't do this again!" Queenie laughed out. She took her to sit down and gave her a glass of orange juice. "Here! Take it easy!" Jarvis sat opposite to them and sneered: "I don't have a share?"
Queenie hurriedly leaned over and poured a glass of wine for Jarvisn "This is for you, my big boss." After saying so, she lit a cigarette for Jarvis. "Big Boss, here is your cigar." Jarvis smiled at Sonia. "Glad to meet you, Miss Donald." "My pleasure. President Yates." Sonia was somewhat embarrassed. "Your nis known to everyone in the Seaside City..." "Oh, really?" Jarvis hugged Queenie and made her sit next to him with a smile. "Letintroduce to you again. This is my dog, Queenie." Queenie picked up a fake smile. "Did we settle on your exclusive secretary?"
"It's always a bit too ambiguity to call you my exclusive secretary." Jarvis smiled and winked at Queenie? But winke there was no smile in his eyes. He got close to her and said: "Now, you dare to askto help you. Queenie, you are getting bolder. Sonia looked at the couple in front of her, which could be considered a weird match. She asked her friend with her eyes: "Are you all right? When did you hook up with Jarvis?" Queenie moved her lips without making a sound. "Don't mention it! This is really my boss!" Sonia chuckled. "I was wondering why Queenie cto have fun in the bar alone. It turned out that President Yates wanted to come." Jarvis smiled and pinched Queenie. "Are you taking advantage of my status to help you have fun in the outside world again?" Queenie lied with her straight and sincere eyes. "How can I do that? I can't do such a thing as spending company's money on having fun."
