"Big brother’s wife doesn’t know how you know, does she?"
Thomas Fisher blurted out, leaving Ryan Taylor unsure how to respond. Seeing Ryan hesitate without answering, Thomas chuckled, "Haha! I knew you were just talking nonsense. Big brother’s wife would never tell you the truth."
He used his other hand to push away his second brother who was blocking him and leaned forward to look at his eldest brother who was sitting steadily in his seat, "Big brother! Am I right?"
His drunken eyes looked at his eldest brother, waiting for his response.
Easton Hols didn’t imdiately respond to Thomas Fisher’s questioning. He slowly stood up from his seat, walked around to Thomas Fisher.
"You shouldn’t drink anymore; drinking does you no good, and she doesn’t like drinking." His tone and deanor had beco much calr than before, his expression more relaxed.
"Big brother! I promise I won’t drink anymore. Now tell , where exactly did Alice go?" Thomas Fisher tried to shake off the hand holding him, but after struggling for a long ti without success, he could only turn his head to look at the approaching Easton Hols.
Easton Hols originally only wanted to provoke Thomas Fisher’s nerves, dulled by alcohol, but did not expect it to go too far. As Thomas repeatedly questioned Alice Turner’s whereabouts, he felt quite helpless.
"When did I say I knew where she went?" He knew very well he hadn’t said that, was this kid trying to swindle him?
"You just said it." Thomas blurted out.
Well! This kid really was trying to swindle him.
Easton Hols sighed, leaned closer to Thomas Fisher, and slowed his speech, "What I said earlier was even if I knew, I wouldn’t tell you, you little punk! Drink so water and sober up."
With that, he picked up a glass of water from the table and handed it to the heavily intoxicated person.
"I’m very sober right now, not confused at all." Thomas Fisher pushed away the glass Easton Hols handed to him. In his haste, the water spilled out, and the water dripped down Easton’s hand onto the floor.
Easton Hols glanced at the half-empty glass and then at Thomas Fisher’s hazy eyes, he placed the glass back on the table, "If you won’t drink, then go ho."
He pulled out a few tissues from the box on the table and wiped the water off his hand.
"I’m not going ho, I want to find her." Thomas Fisher grabbed Easton Hols’s sleeve and shook it hard, "Big brother! Just tell , where did she go?"
As he spoke, he kept shaking his elder brother’s arm with force.
"I..."
Just as Easton Hols was about to say sothing more, Ryan Taylor suddenly raised his other hand and chopped Thomas Fisher into sleep, "I’ll take him ho. You and Benjamin should head back too."
Ryan turned around, carried the unconscious Thomas Fisher on his back, looked briefly at Easton Hols and Benjamin Shaw, and then left the private room carrying Thomas.
Easton Hols kept staring in the direction his two good friends left. Only after they exited the room did he retract his gaze and turn to look at Benjamin Shaw who hadn’t said a word the entire ti.
Benjamin Shaw was staring at the glass on the table, lost in thought. Sensing Easton Hols’s gaze, he looked up at Easton across the table, and their eyes t.
"Easton! Can we talk?" After a mont of eye contact, Benjamin was the first to speak up.
