Chapter 20

Emma could only raise her head and gulp down the wine in the cup. Her small face wrinkled into a ball.

But this was not the end. Another group of people came over to toast again.

Emma did not wait for Archie's reminder and continued to raise her head to drink another cup.

It was said that alcohol could make people numb and forget their worries. She had never tried it before, but today, she wanted to try it.

"Stop drinking!" When Emma raised her head to drink the third cup, a large hand reached out and snatched her cup.

"I still want to drink!" Emma immediately rushed over to snatch it but was directly pressed into the man's arms and was unable to move.

The person who originally intended to toast saw this scene and immediately smartly turned around to leave.

Archie did not expect Emma's alcohol tolerance to be so bad. After drinking two glasses, she was extremely drunk.

"Give me the cup. Archie, didn't you want me to drink? I want to drink it now. . . " Emma murmured in a daze.

Archie only looked at her with a heavy gaze, not willing to give her more wine.

"I am in so much pain. Give me the wine. I beg you!"

"Shut up!" Archie cursed in a low voice. She actually said that marrying him was very painful for her. This made him very angry.

"Archie, you are a bastard. . . " Emma did not know whether it was on purpose or from the bottom of her heart that she wanted to scold someone.

Archie instantly became unhappy. This woman had scolded him more than once.

This was originally his wedding celebration banquet. But at this moment, because Emma had just come in and was drunk, he had to take care of her first.

Archie angrily hugged the drunk Emma in his arms.

"I'll come back later!" Archie said a few words to his friend and then walked out with heavy steps.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Emma could not help but reach out her hand to grab one of his arms and hug him.

Archie looked at her childish and cute appearance and smiled slightly.

When he was about to carry her to the door of the room, the girl hugging his arm trembled slightly.

After that, she said in fear, "Jimmy, hug me tightly. I'm so cold. . . "

Jimmy?

The man instantly stopped smiling. His eyes were lowered, focusing on the trembling little woman in his arms.

Did she think of him as another man?

His beautiful mood instantly turned gloomy. Archie kicked the door open with extreme displeasure.

He threw the woman in his arms onto the bed without mercy. The girl seemed to be frightened, and her eyes were blurry.

Archie's strong body then pressed on the girl's body coldly. His slightly cold fingers tightly grabbed her chin.

"Jimmy. . . " However, Emma, who was already drunk and had misty eyes, could not tell who the person in front of her was.

She only felt that in this world, there was only one person who would hug her so gently.

Archie's expression was very rich. This was the first time he was used as a substitute.

Who gave her the courage? She actually made him replace someone else?

"Jimmy, don't leave me. . . " In Emma's misty eyes, there was only that man's gentle gaze left.

If she could wake up a little more, she would realize that those eyes were not gentle at all. They were even brewing a raging anger.

Her small hands lightly wrapped around his firm arms, like a cute kitten. She even used her soft lips to rub against his firm arms.

"Jimmy. . . " As she muttered these words, she was like a poor child, finally finding peace in her heart.

Archie's gloomy eyes were filled with anger. He had an impulse to strangle her to death.
