After Being Cheating novel Chapter 315

All of them wondered what on Earth had happened to them. It had been of those rare cases in which Nicole, the graceful upper-class lady, had showcased her fury to the eyes of other people around her.

Daniel then put down the wine list, and the waitress dared not urge him to make the order.

"I take that you're here to see how I flirt with other women, aren't you?" said Sven. He changed his usual naughty look, and then seriously held the pretty waitress who was next to him into his arms.

The pretty waitress hadn't expected this, and all of a sudden she dropped and sat on Sven's legs.

Nicole silently looked at what happened in front of her, with her fists clenched tight.

"Sven, what're you doing?" scolded Daniel. He cast a cold glance onto the woman in Sven's arms, and the woman immediately stood up from his legs, and lowered her head and stepped back.

If there hadn't been so many other people around that would be offended, the waitress wouldn't have let go of Sven, the wealthy man, so easily.

When Sally saw Nicole clenching her fists, she held her, and said, "Sister, don't be angry..."

Nicole then tried to restrain her distressed feeling and then turned around to smile at Sally, and said, "I'm not angry, he can do whatever he wants. I have nothing to do with it."

'Since he doesn't trust me, I don't need to explain anything more to him, ' thought Nicole.

"What? You're so anxious to break up with me, and restore your relationship with your first boyfriend?" confronted Sven. Hearing his words, everybody finally knew the true reason of their quarrels.

Nicole didn't say anything. She opened the wine list she had in front of her, and while pointing at the XO class, the limited version of the finest French brandy, she said to the waitress, "Five glasses of this, now!"

...

The price for just one glass was 8888 dollars, which made the other women in the room feel their heart slightly ache at the price.

But the men didn't care about the price.

They were more generous in spending money than they were.

Daniel then stopped the waitress, who was about to take the order, and said to Nicole, "Sister, I think this brandy is too strong for you to be drinking."

Nicole grinned a slight smile at him, and said, "It's okay, Daniel. You're all here, I'm not afraid."

Then she waved to the waitress, and said, "Please go, and Mr. Sven will make the payment for it later."

She was even calling him 'Mr. Sven' now.

Daniel felt that he'd better not intervene in the couple's private affairs. He glanced at Sven, but Sven didn't react to him.

Janet and Angela Si exchanged glances, then Angela ran up to Nicole and pulled her over, and said, "Sister-in-law, come, let's drink... this! That brandy is for men!"

While randomly pointing at a glass of cocktail with a low alcohol content, Angela asked Nicole's if she agreed on her option.

"Right, Nicole, let me be your company too!" said Janet. She changed seats with Daniel, and squeezed herself beside Nicole and Angela.

While raising her hand, Selina also joined them, and said, "Yes, Nicole, count me in!"

Sally looked at the excited women, but when she had another look at her swollen belly, she quickly gave up on the idea of joining them.

When she saw that all were against her, Nicole had to give up, and said, "Okay."

In a generous manner, Angela said, "Waitress, please bring us ten glasses of this White Lady Cocktail!" and then added, "It's Mr. Sven's treat!"

Her words made all the other women there burst into laughter.

When he saw Nicole giving up on the strong brandy, Daniel took a glance at the waitress, who was also looking at him, and waiting for his agreement, and nodded at her.

Sally rested her chin in her hands, and while looking at Jerry, she asked, "Could I order some red wine? Are you going to let me drink water all evening?"

"Yes, you're so smart!" Jerry then pinched Sally's nose, and called in the waitress to bring some more water for her.

...

Sally felt speechless, and she wanted to give birth to the baby as soon as possible.

Then, Sally shook away Jerry and also squeezed herself beside Selina.

"Sister-in-law, let's toast!" Janet raised her glass, and while calling to Sally, she proposed a toast to all the other women present there.

Jerry saw Nicole drink her glass of cocktail, moved closer to Sven's side, and asked, "What had happened? You two were doing just fine yesterday."

Daniel also took a cold glance at Sven, who was unusually silent.

Nicole was Daniel's elder sister. If Sven had done anything wrong to his sister, even he was his good friend, Daniel wouldn't let him go off easily!

"Well!" Sven slightly let out a sound, and then raised his glass of whisky and gulped half of it.

Last night hadn't turned out to be the best for them. Sven had seen a man kissing Nicole, but without knowing the real reason, Nicole hadn't refused him!

Sven gave the man a heavy punch, but he hadn't expected that Nicole would protect the man herself!

Remembering this, Sven then gulped down the other half of his whisky. His whole glass of whisky had been drunk in just two mouthfuls.

"Sven, don't drink too much!" Daniel kicked at Sven's leather shoes.

But Sven didn't pay any attention to him, and instead filled his glass with liquor again.

Since they had gotten married, this was the first time that he had had such a serious quarrel with Nicole.

"Sven, if Nicole will be drunk later, and you are also drunk, how will you drive her back?" Jerry frowned, and thought, 'Aren't you a doctor, Sven? Don't you know that it's bad for your stomach to gulp so much liquor so fast?'

"Drive who? She won't be willing to go back home with me!" yelled Sven. Nicole had taken their child and had gone back to her mother's manor the previous night!

She initially didn't want to come to this gathering, but she was forced to come there by Sven in a threatening way!

"If she won't go back with you, then are you going to let another man take her away?" asked Jerry. These words seemed to have hit Sven's wound.

He suddenly smashed his glass onto the ground, as if he wanted to release all of his built-up anger and frustration.

The shattering sound wasn't that loud, but it still shocked everyone present in the room.

They had seldom seen Sven wearing such a dark face.

Nicole kept on sipping on her cocktail in silence, and acted as if she hadn't seen Sven's moves.

"Nicole, if you still love him, then say it out loud, now!" Sven felt annoyed, and while he turned off the music, he started shouting at Nicole, distressed.

The whole room was now locked in a dead silence.

Nicole raised her head to look at the ceiling, to prevent her tears from pouring down her cheeks.

She then stood up from the sofa and was just about to leave.

Angela and Janet hastily stopped Nicole, and Angela stared at her brother, and yelled, "Brother! What's wrong with you? Can't you mind your words for a second?"

"Mind my words?" scornfully said Sven.

He had minded his words the other night, but Nicole hadn't given him one more explanation to what had really happened!

Nicole couldn't tolerate his unreasonable anger, and she got rid of their hands. Taking her handbag, she went towards the door.

"Nicole, if you dare to step out this door today, I will never forgive you!" Sven was now feeling very uneasy.

Daniel kicked his leg again, and warned him to watch his manners.

Nicole adjusted her emotions, stood well on her feet, and turned around to smile at Sven. In a low voice, she said, "Okay, Sven. If you won't forgive me, then we will... divorce!"

'Divorce?'!

They were all dumbfounded from what they had heard. What had happened between them? How could she easily spit out the word 'divorce'?

Hearing her talking like that, Daniel frowned, and called out to her, "Sister."

Nicole understood what Daniel wanted to say, but she didn't look at him. Instead, she kept her eyes on Sven, who was still restraining his emotions.

For the first time, the problem of divorcing had risen between them.
