Mr. Poker Face’s Sweetheart By Lee Dubois

Chapter 27

Today Giselle was in a surprisingly good mood and lost count of her drinks. Giselle drank more than usual with various cocktails in turn and did not care about the alcohol level.

Afterward, she was the first to become lose consciousness.

Giselle slept on the sofa with flushed cheeks, and even the edge of her eyes was tinted with slight peach color.

Due to heat, Giselle’s dress was unconsciously unbuttoned for the first two buttons, revealing a slender, pale neckline.

Hymes noticed it and immediately took off his jacket to cover Giselle.

Hymes turned toward Kila who was still complaining about the work with her colleague and said. “Giselle is drunk. I’ll be sending her home first.”

“Sure, no problem. Go ahead!” With an incomparably profound look, Kila waved her hands to urge them home.

Kila watched Hymes carrying Giselle and walking away.

Kila immediately grabbed the colleague’s hand and exclaimed, “Look! This is the happiness of marrying the right person!”

The colleague teased. “Then you better hurry up. There are plenty of male colleagues that are interested in you. Even a random pick is quite good.”

“I’m not going to marry a lawyer as my husband. When we get married, will it be him scheming against me, or will I be the one scheming against him?” Kila’s eyes shone brightly and said, “I’m going to marry a simple and honest man.”

“A simple and honest man is boring. Do you think that Giselle’s husband looked like a plain and ordinary man?”

“He doesn’t really look like one… This kind of man is the most difficult to handle. Speaking of which, I’m slightly worried. about her…” Kila shrugged her shoulders and continued, “But they are already married. There’s nothing we could do except wish her all the best.”

“Forget it. Let’s stop discussing other’s husbands. Although tomorrow is the weekend, I still have plenty of material to catch up on. Let’s go back now?”

Kila could only agree and said, “Well then, we’ll drink again next time.”

Kila got up and went to pay for the bill but learned that Hymes had already paid for them.

Hymes carried drowsy Giselle into the car.

Upon smelling the familiar scent, Giselle snuggled up in Hymes‘ arm and pouted her mouth into a very kissable position.

Hymes hugged Giselle tightly and sighed helplessly, “How can you let your guard down so easily? What if I abducted you and sold you away?”

Giselle’s lips pressed against the nape of Hymes‘ neck and murmured, “Hymes… What are you talking about? It’s so noisy.”

It seemed like Giselle was really drunk.

Hymes was more reassured and nodded at the driver.

The car drove smoothly on the road, and Giselle would not know that they were currently riding in a luxurious car that was worth millions at the moment.

Giselle was currently in a half–drunk state. She knew what was happening around her, but Giselle was too sleepy to open her

eyes.

Giselle knew that Hymes was beside her, so Giselle was not too worried and let her guard down to relax.

However, with the effect of the alcohol, Giselle kept feeling very hot and tried to open up her dress collar even further apart and lift the hem of her dress.

Hymes quickly held Giselle’s hands and stopped her while his voice was unbearably low, “Gigi, stop moving around”

Giselle opened her half–lidded eyes, grunting and purring like a cat. “But I feel so hot, and I want to have some water.

Hymes throat tightened, and then took out a chilled bottle of water, opened it, and fed it to her, “Drink some.”

Giselle enjoyed Hymes‘ service and gulped down most of the water. She burped with satisfaction and finally stopped all the

fuss.

Hymes quietly sighed in relief.

Hymes managed to hold on until the car finally drove into Giselle’s neighborhood and parked below her house.

The driver came to open the door for them while Hymes carried Giselle out of the car in his arms.

Hymes didn’t expect Giselle to be slightly awakened at this moment, muttering vaguely, “Water! Bring my water with you! I still haven’t finished drinking it.”

Giselle’s behavior was so innocent and enchanting, and surprisingly cute.

Hymes had no choice but to rush back into the car and carry Giselle and her bottle of water all the way back home.

When Giselle was finally on her bed, Giselle closed her eyes comfortably while enjoying the blanket’s softness.

Hymes went to the bathroom to get Giselle’s usual facial towel and wanted to help her wipe her face briefly.

This morning the makeup Giselle wore had mostly vanished. Also, in the car, Giselle rubbed most of it on Hymes‘ collar just

now.

Giselle’s skin was very fair, and her face basically had no flaws. As most of the makeup had been removed, it increased Giselle’s charm.

Hymes had never done anything like this in his life, so he could only try to be gentle and slowly wipe away the remaining makeup on Giselle. Afterward, Hymes tucked Giselle in.

“Sleep, Hymes whispered coaxingly.

However, Giselle suddenly grunted with closed eyes, “I haven’t streamed today!”

Hymes failed to catch what Giselle said and asked, “What did you just say?”

“I didn’t stream today. I failed to earn some money for today…” Giselle sighed and then fell asleep completely.

Squatting by the bed, Hymes chuckled helplessly and reached out to pinch her soft cheeks. “You little money–grubber…”

When Giselle woke up the next morning, she did not quite remember what had happened last night Giselle only remembered that those drinks were quite good, and she drank a little too much.

In the past, when socializing, Giselle would bring along a hangover cure and make sure to be extra careful with her drinks, and never once had Giselle gotten so drunk.

Probably because Giselle always had been so uptight when drinking, so even when she had reached her maximum alcohol tolerance level, Giselle still managed to struggle home before collapsing.

However, yesterday perhaps because Hymes was around, Giselle let her guard down and soon got too drunk until she lost

consciousness.

Giselle got up from the bed and noticed she was still dressed in the same clothes she wore yesterday.

This proved that someone did not take advantage of Giselle even though she was drunk.

Surprisingly, Hymes was such a gentleman.

Giselle smiled, and there was a strange feeling stirring inside her heart.

After washing up, Giselle went downstairs and noticed that Hymes had even prepared breakfast for her, which was kept in the thermos container.

Hymes did not even sleep in on the weekend, and he was probably off somewhere at the moment.

Giselle sat down and had her breakfast while messaging Hymes.

Hymes quickly replied: [I’ll be back at noon to cook lunch.]

[There’s no need for you to rush. Just continue with your work. I can handle it myself.]

Although Giselle was not good at cooking, it was not so bad that she could not eat it.

Hymes only replied: [Wait for me.]

Giselle was touched and went straight to bed and slept some more.

Almost around noon, when Giselle got downstairs to throw the trashes, she saw a bottle of water on the table.

Giselle could not but be startled, “Where did this bottle of water come from?”

This imported brand of mineral water was very famous. Giselle knew that a bottle of it cost a lot, and drinking it was like buying stones with gold.

Giselle once complained that would one who drank such an expensive bottle of mineral water be turned into an immortal?

Yesterday that bar did not have such an expensive brand of water, did it?

But Giselle was only puzzled for a moment before continuing down to throw out the trash.

When Giselle arrived downstairs, she ran into a familiar neighbor living in the same building.

“Hello! Did you have your lunch yet?”

“I’m just getting ready to go home and cook. And you?”

I’ll eat later.

After greeting each other, the lady smiled and said to Giselle, “Not bad, Miss. You’ve found a rich boyfriend. Last night, he drove such an expensive car to send you back!”
