Chapter 52

Ivan's POV

Due to Miss Roselyn's presence at the bar that evening, I was unable to have even a drop of the vodka and ended up conversing with her instead, and I must say, it worked wonders for me, alleviating my mood.

“What? The case has been, and her parents were assaulted by a gang of unknown men? I only see this happening in movies but never knew it could happen in reality. I think I can understand why you resulted into drinking, and seriously, I doubt Evelyn has heard of this. Maybe I should call her, huh?” She asked, bringing out her phone to make the call.

“Not here, Miss Roselyn. You can do that later on, although she might get to learn about it before then. You should focus all your attention on me alone. That's what you get for snatching away my vodka and refusing me to drink. You will have to take responsibility for it by keeping me company here” I said to her, her face flushing for some seconds that I thought I wasn't seeing well.
