Memories Of The Night 299 Chapter 299: Farrah Gets Drunk

Bob smiles back and says in a gentle voice, "Of course, I do. How could I not appreciate an expensive gift coming from you?"

The girl grabs his arm and studies the watch on his wrist. "Well, it's not as good as the one you used to have, but I also have good taste!"

"Well, you've always had good taste. I am not making any fun of you, but you literally have a good taste,"

"That's true!" the girl says, giggling. "By the way, the rest of the family's trying to get more control of the company. They want more authority and more shares. Bob, are you really going to be a doctor all your life?"

"What's wrong with being a doctor? Doctors heal the sick and rescue the dying. Nothing compares to the joy of saving a patient at the brink of death. Compared to the politics of family businesses, I prefer the life I have now. I am more than happy to serve people who need my medical knowledge. Political life is not for me. I'd still rather be a Doctor than enter the turbulent world of politics."

Farrah recognizes the girl as the same one who bought the $40,000 watch in the shop this afternoon.

Bob and the girl are fast approaching. Panicking, Farrah rushes into a nearby restroom to hide.

That girl can easily buy him a new watch, while I can't even afford to replace the strap of his watch. The thought drains all of Farrah's confidence. No matter how much I like him, I'll never be able to fill the gap between us. He came from a n.o.ble family.

Farrah remembers the girl's words. Is Bob the heir of a big family? She takes out her mobile phone and searches the internet for the most powerful family businesses in Abbe city. The Simon family ranks first, followed by the Woods family.

His family is even more powerful than Marcellus' family! He's more out of reach than I thought…

Farrah rarely falls in love with a man. Bob is the only person she entertained thoughts about spending a future with.

The more I learn about him, the more unreachable he becomes. How will we ever be together? I'm humble and insignificant. I can't confess my feelings to him!

Before Farrah's love has a chance to grow, it's ruthlessly uprooted from the ground. Her heart is filled with inexplicable sadness and pain.

After leaving the hospital, Farrah goes to the bar. She orders a lot of wine, intending to alleviate her sorrow through alcohol. But drinking alone only makes her feel worse. I need someone to talk to.

With unsteady hands, she dials Katrina's number on her phone. When her friend answers the call, she asks, "Katrina, are you off work?"

Katrina can't hear Farrah's voice well. "I'm on my way out." Sensing that something is wrong, she asks, "Farrah, what happened? Where are you now? Why is it so noisy over there?"

Farrah takes a sip of wine before giving the name of the bar. She says in a low voice, "Katrina, do you want to meet up after work?"

Katrina is shocked to hear that Farrah is in a bar. She never goes to a bar! What happened? Why is she drinking alone?

Farrah has always supported Katrina when she's in trouble. Knowing that Farrah is going through something, Katrina doesn't have the heart to say no.

Fearing that something will happen to Farrah, she agrees without hesitation. "Okay! Farrah, stay there and wait for me! I'll be there right away! Don't go anywhere!"

After Katrina hangs up the phone, she quickly takes her bag and runs out of the station. She finds a taxi at the roadside and heads straight for the bar.

When she's inside the taxi, she calls Aaron. "Aaron, you don't have to pick me up after work. Farrah's going through something right now. I'm on my way to see her."

Aaron doesn't expect Katrina to leave him alone two days in a row. The news leaves him upset. He answers coolly, "Katrina, was I too gentle with you last night?"

Katrina purses her lips at the response. I can't leave my best friend alone just because he's a child!

She takes a deep breath and says patiently, "Aaron, don't give me a hard time. Farrah is really depressed. I need to see her now, I'm afraid something bad will happen to her. I'm hanging up now. Bye!" She disconnects the call before he can threaten her into coming home.

As soon as the taxi stops at the bar entrance, Katrina pays for the fare and rushes inside.

The lights in the bar are dim and the place is ringing with loud music and boisterous voices. Katrina finds Farrah at the counter, arguing with the bartender.

"Farrah!" Katrina hurries over and grabs Farrah before glaring daggers at the man. "Hey! What are you doing? Stop bullying her, or I'll call the police!"

The bartender looks at Katrina with surprise. Pointing to Farrah, he asks, "Are you her friend?"

Despite her confusion, Katrina nods. I'm not letting anyone bully Farrah!

"You arrived just in time!" The bartender hands a bill to Katrina. "Your friend keeps ordering drinks without paying. When I asked her to pay for her drinks, she said that I'm bullying her and discriminating against her for being poor!"

He lets out a loud sigh and continues, "I'm just making a living! I'm not discriminating against her at all! I just want her to pay for the drinks so my boss won't deduct my salary. Where's the discrimination in that?"

Katrina looks down at Farrah, then to the pile of empty cups on the table in front of her. She must have drunk a lot. She's way too drunk to pay for the bill.

Her glare softens into understanding. She quickly takes out her wallet and pays for Farrah's bill. Satisfied, the bartender leaves without another word.

I've never seen Farrah so drunk. What happened to her? Katrina asks worriedly, "Farrah, what's wrong? What happened?"
