Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 261

The way Marcus Thomson said it was believable, and the anxiety in his tone was vivid.

Holding the phone, I stood on the balcony feeling irritable. The wind was blowing, and I said calmly, “If he doesn’t give a damn about himself, let him drink to death!”

“Clara...”

“Clara George, are you out of your freaking mind? You are such a terrible wife!” Dennis grabbed Marcus’s phone and yelled in a rude drunk voice.

“Says the terrible husband! Dennis George, you are a mad man now acting like a freaking three-year-old!” I had no idea Marcus had put me on speaker, so Dennis took offense immediately after hearing what I had said.

Marcus got nervous and said “My dear bother...” to Dennis in a teasing way.

But Dennis might have just given him an angry stare as a reply, so the other side of the phone went silent for a couple of minutes.

I was not in the mood to battle with him over this at all. I went ahead and spoke easily, “Dennis, don’t call me anymore if you just want to start fights!”

Before he could reply, I hung up right away.

I turned off my phone afterward.

That night, I didn’t sleep well. I had nightmares all night and finally fell asleep in a fuzz at dawn. And then Jackie Wells called.

Hearing my voice a little hoarse and tired, she couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Clara, did you have a good night’s sleep?”

I hummed and said, “Send me the address, and I’ll be there shortly!”

My head hurt so bad. I got up and sat at the bedside for a while before I could regain my senses.

Listening to my voice, Jackie Wells paused and said, “Hey, how about I come to pick you up later. This way you could sleep in for a little longer. I’ll come over later and bring you some breakfast, too.”

I opened my mouth and was about to refuse, but she said, “Remember to open the door for me later. I’ll hang up now, see you soon!”

Then Jackie directly hung up the phone.

I felt a bit fuzzy. I took a look at my phone. There had been any messages or calls after the one made with Dennis.

I wasn’t able to fall back asleep. When Jackie came, I had to take some painkillers as my headache got unbearable.

She brought me breakfast. Looking at the dark circles under my eyes, she said, “Would you like to take the day off and get some more proper rest?”

I shook my head, “The banquet at the Kennedy family is about to start on Monday. Leo has rearranged my gown fitting - I stood him up a few times. After I finish handling the stuff here, I will have to make this one!”

Jackie pondered for a few seconds, then said something almost unbelievable, “I am afraid things won’t go as smoothly as expected!”

Saying so, she looked at me and continued, “Eat breakfast first!”

I nodded, but my head was still aching - I felt uncomfortable.

When getting out of the YT Apartment, I felt a little unwell. It was the feeling of low pressure that made my heart uncomfortable. In addition, my head hurt, so I felt irritable.

Seeing Jackie driving towards the suburbs, I couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “What are we going in the suburbs for?”

She pursed her lips and said, “I’m taking you to meet the person you’ve been wanting to see!”

The person I had been wanting to see?

I went over a lot of people quickly in my mind but failed to figure out who it could be.

So I asked Jackie directly, “Who is it?”
