“What the hell are you doing here? “

“I thought something was wrong, so I told you that maybe you need my help."

Stephen gritted his teeth. right, “your help Seriously, do you forget how I had saved you many times from getting beaten up? And you think I need your help

Richard gave a thought to his words, and he was right, so he just shrugged his shoulders and entered the club again.

First, they look for Steve and Eva, and to their surprise, they are not on the dance floor. Stephen gave a questioning look to the guards, who pointed toward the bar

When they reached the bar counter, they found Steve and Eva involved in drinking some mocktail shots. It was looking morelike a competition. Where the bartender was counting their glasses to decide the winner

Eva was done with 9 shorts, and Steve was reaching 7 as he didn’t like this weird taste of shots. The Moment the bartender noticed Stephen, he declared Eva the winner in hurry and rush out of the spot

“Yeah, I won... I won.”

Steve clapped for her, Stephen, and Richard noticed Eva’s appearance, and she was looking tipsy. Richard smelled the shot glass and signaled to Stephen that it was not a mocktail; it smelled like strong alcohol. Stephen counted some curses under his breath. Now he understood why the bartender ran for his life, as he must have done something with their drinks.

Steve was still clapping, which made Stephen bothered, as Steve used to drink casually and if this drink was having this kind of effect on him, then what about Eva? He looked at Eva, who was standing on the chair, holding the wine bottle in one hand as a trophy and was already started her acknowledgment speech

“I want to thank my dad for sending me to LA, then I will thank my friends who made me agree to stay with the Smith family (hiccup)... A special thanks to this man who is still clapping for me, Steve Smith who made this clubbing plan (hiccup.)

And challenged me to taste this drink. It was not delightful at first, but his constant motivation helped me, and then I like it too (hiccup), so this trophy belongs to him too.”

Eva bent forward to pass that bottle to Steve, but she lost her balance in the chair, and before she could touch the floor, Richard moved towards her and caught her in his arms. Eva shrieked at first, but when she saw Richard holding her in a bridal style, she giggled and blushed.

“Richard sir (hiccup)"; you are so sweet and kind (hiccup)... You know you are my men... “

"Mentor," “Stephen completed the word with gritted teeth before Richard could misunderstand her.

Richard gave a smile at her, but she would not stop. “Yes, that too, and also my in... in...

“Infatuation. “ Steve also interferes in between

“No inspiration... she means inspiration." Stephen again corrected her

"Hmm, how did this man know so much about me? You know he always scared me? Arrogant man, heartless too, “Eva started pointing at Stephen

Richard chuckled at her words, whereas Stephen glared at Eva, who was still sticking close to Richard

“Copy that. “ Steve showed his thumbs up

Stephen had enough, so they left. He reached near Richard to take hold of Eva. Richard passed her in his arms as she was a package

“ You take Steve with you to your place, and I will take Eva home. “

“But why should I take him to my place?”

“Because if dad caught him like this and came to know about his careless behavior, then he will not think twice to throw him out of his house."

"Ok, but what if your dad saw Eva like this?”

“Don’t worry, I will tell them that’s she got drunk by mistake.'

“Oh, ok. ‘Richard reached toward Steve and started dragging him out of the club

While Stephen reached into his car, holding her close to him. He signaled the chauffeur to start home

During the journey, Eva kept blabbering about her friends and how much she missed them, and then she started praising Rose and William.
