Chapter 150 Totally Drunk

"We should celebrate!" Lisa said and was about to flag down a waiter.

Assuming that Lisa was upset about her tea shop, Kate said, "Yes, we have a drink!"

"You mean it?" Lisa just joked with her.

"Yes, of course!" As there wasn't much for Kate to do at work after lunch, therefore a drink or two wouldn't hurt she thought. She could pretend to work and if need be lie down for a rest.

"Okay, since you are agreeing; we are going to enjoy ourselves," Lisa called out, "Waiter, bring us four bottles of beer."

After eating their meals and drinking only one bottle of beer, Kate's face was getting hot. Lisa teased her, "You used to be able to drink a lot before. Now, your face is red after one bottle, or is it because you are in love with Joseph?"

"Don't pick on me! Being in love has nothing to do with it. I am just happy," Kate stuttered. She was feeling a little tipsy but raised another glass to toast with Lisa.

Lisa responded, "If Joseph finds out that you are out for lunch with me and drinking beer, will he get angry and kill me?"

"Don't worry, he won't even know," Kate assumed that her buzz would be gone by the time Joseph picked her up after work, "Forget about everything, just keep drinking and enjoy ourselves."

Lisa was moved that Kate could see she was upset, even if she didn't say it. Kate didn't purposely say anything to comfort her but she could sense Kate's love. Even after drinking two bottles each, Lisa giggled, "Kate, I think I want another bottle."

"Okay, if you get too drunk, you can come back to the office with me. It isn't too far from here," Kate agreed and ordered them two more bottles each.

Kate felt very dizzy and murmured, "Why am I feeling drunk? I have only been drinking beer!"

"Yeah! We shouldn't be…unless the beer is mixed with hard liquor. Waiter…" Lisa shouted.

The manager ran over in a hurry, "What is wrong, ladies?"

"I think we are drunk," Lisa mumbled.

Lisa and Kate had been at the restaurant before, the manager remembered them. He stated, "You won't be having any more to drink. I will call you a taxi!"

"No, thank you. We can get home on our own," Kate said with confidence and stood up. She went to help Lisa up, "Let's go to my office. It isn't safe to call a taxi; we can walk, it is close by."

The two drunk women stumbled to the door and nearly fell. The manager was about to call a waiter to help, however, Rowen walked in and saw them. He

saw the beer bottles littering the table; understanding what happened he quickly put his arm out to help Kate.

"Kate, are you okay?" Rowen asked with care.

Kate squinted and said cutely, "I'm well and happy. Why are you here?"

"Yes sir!" The manager handed the card to a waiter.

Rowen helped Kate all the way to his car, Kate put her hand up and drunkenly said, "I need to go to work. I want to go back to the office. I don't want to go home! And take your hand off of me!"

"Kate, it is Rowen. You are drunk," Rowen's tone was very gentle, and he loosened his hand a little for fear of hurting her.

"Rowen, Rowen...I know you," She laughed suddenly, "I know you. I'm not drunk."

"Okay, I know you're not drunk," He assumed that Kate's stomach would be uneasy after drinking so much, and if they drove she might throw up. He said, "Okay, we will walk back to the office."

"Good!" Kate agreed with a smile.

As soon as they crossed the road, a tall man stepped out in front of them. Rowen looked up and was staring straight into Joseph's cold eyes.

Rowen asked, "Hi! What is going on?"

Joseph looked at him with anger, "I would just like to know where you are taking my girlfriend?"

Girlfriend? I thought they were divorced. Rowen was confused. He looked at Kate then back to Joseph, either way, the important thing was that Kate was drunk and needed to lie down. Rowen ignored Joseph, trying to walk around him. However, Joseph stepped forward and pulled Kate's unsteady body into his arms, then picked her up and walked away.

Rowen watched them leaving and then returned to check on Lisa.

Kate was restless as Joseph carried her toward the office. She tapped on his chest and stuttered, "Is this a wall? How hard is it? I will knock on the wall…"

Then she suddenly put her hand to her face and began to cry. Joseph looked at her and thought she was so cute. He had warned her before not to drink, but she still dared to do it on the first day they were officially dating.

"You didn't hit a wall," Joseph answered after they were in the elevator.

"Then why is it so hard?" Her hands wandered over his chest.

Joseph was starting to feel excited as Kate's hand roamed, he whispered, "Don't move!"

"I didn't," She pressed her face against his chest but her hands still moved across his body.

When the elevator stopped, Joseph carried Kate directly to her office then put her down on the sofa. As he tried to stand up, Kate wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down toward her. He could no longer control himself, he kissed her lips gently. However, he quickly stopped himself.
