Love My Friends with Benefits

After the introductions, we chatted over drinks. I could tell that May was trying her best to nudge Austin and I together, probably thinking so that I could use him to forget about all the unhappy things in my past. Most of the conversation was drowned out by the deafening music, not that I was really paying attention. I just kept drinking.

Finally, I felt like I was drunk. Everything looked hazy to me, and I wanted to go home.

My car was parked at the bar's entrance, but there was no way I could drive.

When we exited the bar, May suggested that Austin send me home while she and the other guy had some time alone.

"I'll take you home..." Austin said to me.

"No, there's no need." I turned and staggered away.

I did not want to be with him. Though I was drunk, I knew that if I were to stay with Austin, something would definitely happen.

He caught up with me, insisting on sending me home, but all I wanted was to keep him a safe distance away.

He hailed a taxi. It brought us to a hotel.

On the way there, he kept trying to hold me up, but I pushed him away each time.

Surprisingly, after getting a room, Austin did not force himself on me. I did not even have to put up a fight as I had imagined.

I just wanted to find a place to sleep. If he were to try something at this time, I would probably go ballistic.

After tucking me in the bed, he quietly left the hotel room.

Perhaps due to the alcohol, I had a restful sleep. When I woke up, the sky was already completely bright.

I opened my eyes and thought about everything that happened the night before. I realized I could barely remember what Austin looked like, and I could not help smiling.

He and Leonard were complete opposites. I could not help forming a good impression of Austin, perhaps due to the amount of heartache Leonard had caused me.

However, he truly was not the type that I usually went for. I did not dwell on him.

After all, my plan for revenge was the most important thing to me at the moment.

I still had to find ways to get close to Leonard so that I could take the opportunity to cause trouble between him and Phoebe.

I forged ahead with my plan.

I could tell that Leonard and Phoebe had probably already settled on a date for their wedding and the preparations were underway.

Bell Jones had been in the construction business for many years and was considered influential in S City while the Nell family was even more so.

It was almost certain that this wedding would be one of the biggest events to happen in S City in recent years.

I was probably the only one person who did not want this wedding to happen smoothly.

Leonard's matte black Ferrari was extremely easy to recognise, so it did not take me much effort to follow him. As long as I could find his car, I would be able to find him.

This time, he brought Phoebe to a classy bridal shop located in the city centre. They were probably going to get her wedding gown tailored.

I was itching to cause trouble for them.

I sat in my car and watched as Leonard and Phoebe got out of his Ferrari. They walked into the bridal shop with their arms linked.0000
