Christopher soon arrived at the bar where Jane was. Amidst the dim lighting and noisy music, he found Jane and Harley's booth. Wearing a mask, he clearly wasn't there to drink.
"Ms. Coolidge, Christopher apologized straightforwardly as soon as he saw Jane, "I was wrong before, and I'm here to apologize to you."
Jane, holding a drink, looked at him lazily and remained silent.
The noisy music and Jane's indifference made Christopher frown.
"Who apologizes like this? Don't you think it's insincere?" Harley stood up from the booth and taunted Christopher.
Christopher frowned at Harley, recognizing her as the one who had insulted him over the phone.
Harley glared back fearlessly. Noticing Christopher's mask, she remembered Jane mentioning how she had beaten him up and sneered, "What's with the mask? Are you hiding something?" Feeling that staying would only increase his irritation, Christopher turned to leave.
Harley grabbed him. "Aren't you here to apologize? Are you thinking of leaving just like that?"
Jane stood up and added, "Right, I haven't even heard your apology yet."
Their booth was in a visible location, and when both stood up, they drew the attention of the neighboring booth.
Close by, several men surrounded a woman who was flamboyant and seductive, leisurely smoking, her gaze landing on Christopher.
"What are you looking at, Florence?" One man leaned in, following her gaze.
Florence casually said, "It's too boring here, just watching a show to pass the time."
The woman was Miss Florence Shelton from the Shelton Family who had returned to the country, but as. soon as she came back, she found a place to meet a few friends at the bar. She happened to see Christopher being harassed by Jane and Harley in the adjacent booth.
The man looked Christopher up and down, asking, "He's not your type, is he?”
Florence looked at him speechlessly. "I don't like this kind of person. I said I was just watching a show to pass the time. I bet a drink that he will end up kneeling down to apologize." The man looked over at Christopher, who was already coerced by Jane and Harley into drinking several glasses.
But Christopher's drinking was comical, removing his mask to sip and then replacing it.
"Is it enough now? I've apologized and drank, Ms. Coolidge. Can we put the past behind us?" Christopher asked, struggling with the taste of the alcohol and the dizziness. Chapter 381 Apology Must Be Sincere.

The three glasses of alcohol he had just drunk were not ordinary beer, but high-proof foreign liquor, but urged and coerced by Jane and Harley, he still drank it.
Christopher thought that after he had a drink, everything would be fine. However, he didn't expect Harley to speak up again. "Take off your mask to drink. Who knows if you're secretly pouring out the alcohol w She lazily sat back on the booth sofa, pulling Jane to sit down with her, mocking Christopher who had just drank three glasses of wine in vain.
Christopher clenched his fist, but he held back.
"If I remove my mask and drink, will you forgive my past actions?" He asked, ignoring Harley and looking directly at Jane.
Jane shrugged. "It depends on your performance. Apologies must be sincere, you know?"
Feeling now amused rather than bored, Jane found playing with Christopher quite interesting.
"Alright," Christopher said, and took off his mask.
He had been wearing a mask since being hit by Jane, but he knew that the mark on his face was not as noticeable as before.
Upon his reveal, Harley laughed, and chuckles also came from the neighboring booth.
Ignoring Harley's mockery, Christopher glared fiercely at Florence in the next booth.
Florence, amused by his stare, felt a flicker of annoyance and said to her companion, "Looks like he really has to apologize on his knees." However, the apology was not for Jane, but for her.
The man understood Florence's intent and signaled to the bartender.
A muscular bartender approached respectfully, receiving instructions to arrange a private room upstairs.
for them.
Florence gracefully stood up at the man's invitation, casting a glance at Christopher before heading upstairs.
Christopher, still trying to apologize to Jane, felt a cold shiver as if he had been scrutinized by a gaze, freezing him in place.

Harley, noticing the adjacent booth emptying, didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, after Christopher finished his drink, she provocatively suggested. Your face looks a bit asymmetrical. To show your sincerity Why don't you slap yourself a few times to even it out?"
Christopher was immediately enraged, but before he could respond, a burly bouncer approached.
"Sir, a lady would like to have a word with you.”
The appearance of the bartender puzzled Jane and the others.

But Christopher knew he couldn't stay at this table any longer. He had almost lost his temper with Harley and Jane just now
Since someone was looking for him, he took the opportunity to leave.
"Ms. Coolidge, someone is looking for me. I need to step away" With that, Christopher looked at the bartender and gestured for him to lead the way.
Seeing Christopher leave, Harley couldn't help but feel a bit regretful. "This guy really knows how to pretend. The bartender must be someone he arranged himself, right? He just doesn't want to be played by Jane shrugged. "Who cares? We embarrassed him enough. Did you notice how wobbly his walk was?"
She didn't want to make Christopher too miserable, after all, she was still count him to deal with her
on family.
The two of them didn't stay long before leaving the bar.
They didn't know that after being led away by the bartender for a few steps, Christopher confirmed that Jane and Harley couldn't see him, and said to the bartender, "No need to show me the way; I don't want see your miss
As he spoke, he tried to head toward the bar's exit but was unexpectedly lifted by the bartender.
"My miss wants to see you; you don't have a choice," the bartender said, then lifted him up to the second floor as if he were carrying a child.
Having consumed several drinks, Christopher felt groggy and unable to free himself.
After being carried for a while, he was seemingly thrown to the ground.
"Is this guy drunk? Wasn't he just glaring at me?" Florence remarked disdainfully, kicking the prostrate Christopher and then stepping on his hand, waking him with the pain..
This sudden jolt sobered Christopher considerably, and the nausea from the alcohol surged, leading him to vomit directly onto Florence's shoes, causing her to step back in disgust. "D"mn it! Wake him up!"
Enraged by the mess on her shoes, she wanted Christopher to pay.
He was dragged to the restroom and doused with cold water.
"Cough cough cough- Christopher, drenched in cold water, looked disheveled and somewhat more SOBER.
