I've Been There Before

Chapter 288 The Worst Thing Cayne Had Done

Leon looked at his friend who had returned in a hurry.

“Is there a ghost chasing you?” Leon raised his eyebrows and teased him.

Cayne strode past Leon and walked to the wine cabinet. He pulled open the glass door and picked up a bottle of whisky without a glance at the wines. He rudely opened it and finished most in the bottle in seconds with large gulps.

Leon rushed over and snatched the bottle from Cayne’s hand. “You can’t drink like that!”

Cayne took a deep breath and the smell of the whisky spread through the air.

Seeing that he wasn’t obsessed with wine, Leon put down the whisky and step back. He sat on the coffee-colored leather sofa and said, “Tell me what has happened?”

Cayne stood by the bar, with his arm resting on the counter and the back of his hand holding his forehead. The smell of alcohol pervaded his surroundings. His light-colored eyelashes trembled and he did not answer for a long time.

Leon was a shrewd businessman. Naturally, he found the core of the problem quickly.

“Your secretary said you went to the James Group.” He crossed his legs. “You’ve been rejected by her.”

Cayne at the bar had no intention of speaking at all.

Leon’s eyes lighted up and said, “Did she reject you?”

These ordinary words provoked Cayne. He suddenly raised his head and shouted angrily, “No!”

Leon raised one hand to support his forehead and looked at him with a faint smile.

“Alright ...” Cayne leaned against the bar and said, “You win.”

Leon smiled and knew what had happened.

Very quickly, he heard Leon’s answer.

“But you’re wrong.” Cayne walked weakly towards the chair in front of the bar and his tall figure slid into the chair. “She didn’t reject me, and I didn’t say anything to her.”
