Love You Enough to Leave You

Chapter 305 Drunk

Oscar kept downing one shot after another as though he were trying to give up his life. That was the second time Julian saw Oscar being that out of control. The first time was when Amelia asked for a divorce, and Julian would bet his last money that the issue at hand involved Amelia as well.

At that moment, Julian finally understood just how powerful women could be. It didn’t matter how strong a man was because he would still lose himself when dealing with the woman he loved.

Reaching out, Julian snatched Oscar’s bottle away. “Oscar, are you trying to kill yourself?”

Oscar held his hand out to get the bottle back, which made Julian put the bottle further away. “Seriously, Oscar. You’ll look cowardly if you keep drinking like this. Just tell me what’s going on. I can help you come up with a solution.”

Oscar managed to snatch the bottle back and drank all the remaining whiskey in one go.

Frowning, Julian scolded, “Oscar, man up already! You can’t just drink your sorrow away every time something troubles you. How do you expect Amelia to depend on and trust you when you are so weak?”

Those words were like the last straw that broke the camel’s back. At that moment, a punch landed right on Julian’s face. The latter was stunned for a moment, and that gave Oscar the opportunity to throw yet another punch. Soon after, Julian regained his footing, and a fight broke out between the two friends.

The bar’s other customers, including the ones that were on the dance floor, heard the commotion. It didn’t take long before the bar’s manager got the guards over to pry the fighting men apart.

Both Oscar and Julian had injuries on their faces, but Julian looked a little worse, as blood was dripping from the edge of his lips.

Since the owner of the bar knew Oscar, the manager didn’t dare to be too harsh. He ended up politely asking everyone to go home and rest up.

When the men left the bar, Julian massaged his injured face and shot a look at Oscar. Then, he broke burst into laughter out of the blue. “Feeling better?”

Feeling his mood lifted a bit, Oscar replied, “Sorry, I acted impulsively.”

“You’re the only one who can get away with something like this. If anyone else had punched me, I will make it so that he won’t survive long enough to see the next sunrise,” said Julian while massaging his jaw and hissing in pain. “Oh gosh, you are cruel. I almost lost my teeth. Did you see me as the enemy? Because you definitely didn’t hold back.”

Not responding, Oscar strolled numbly to his car. Julian followed along quickly and hopped into the passenger’s seat, even without an invitation from the other man.

When Julian got into the car, he reverted to his carefree style and asked, “Oscar, since you’ve punched me, shouldn’t you at least tell me what I did to piss you off?”

Oscar fired up the engine and stared out the window.
