The Bound Between Us

Chapter 262

The drunk male coworker didn’t let Harmon off the hook because of his silence. The guy got up, waving his arms around, and said to Harmon, “How about I set you up, mate? A girl from my hometown, just divorced for the third time last month, got two daughters. I’m doing this for you because we’re buddies. But you better move fast. These divorced women are like hot cakes these days. The gender ratio is all outta whack.”

To introduce a woman who had been divorced three times and had kids? Who the hell would go for that? Generally speaking, the kind of person they introduced to him reflected what they thought of him. In this coworker’s eyes, Harmon could only match with a woman who had been divorced three times and had kids.

Harmon immediately got pissed off, pushed the guy away with force, “I don’t need it.”

The coworker staggered, caught by others before he fell. Alcohol could really get his emotions all over the place. He got angry as soon as Harmon pushed him, “You ungrateful sod! I’m trying to do you a favor here and you’re acting like a dick. You’re not even worth having a wife. Can you even afford one? Serves you right getting scammed by those matchmaking sites, you idiot.”

Harmon was up in a flash, looking ready for a fight, “Say that again. I dare you!”

The coworker kept provoking him with words.
