Operation: Cobra Is Back novel Chapter 44

That afternoon, Duncan was going to the bar.

The place where he currently lived was not far from the bar, which was only ten minutes’ walk.

Just when he was halfway down the road, a Toyota SUV suddenly stopped in front of him. Just as Duncan was puzzled, the window was rolled down, revealing a fat face with a bright smile.

"Duncan!"

Duncan turned his head to look at the other person. After a little while, he hesitated and shouted, "Tim?"

"Damn it! It’s been a while, but you actually forget me, your big bro?"

Tim opened the door of the car and got out of the car. He smiled and punched Duncan neither lightly nor heavily, and then put his hand around Duncan's shoulders with a look of smug, "Well, how about this car? I just bought it. 40,000 dollars! "

Seeing this, Duncan shook his head and laughed, "Not bad."

"Just admit it if you’re envious, dude. I paid the full price! See, the luxurious leather seats, abundant space! If I want to have a sex here, I can try every position I want, no space limitation!"

Tim peeked at Duncan, and then continued to show off his car.

This Tim, whose full name was Tim Harris, was Duncan's best friend when he was in college.

After graduating, Tim helped his father’s business and became a labor contractor. He was relatively rich among their generation.

Tim was not damn rich, around several million in assets. But he treated Duncan well enough and often hung out with Duncan.

"Why haven't I seen you recently? I can't get through your phone. Where did you go for fun?"

After chatting for a while, Tim asked.

Duncan shrugged and said, "My phone is broken. I changed my number by the way, and forgot to tell you, sorry!"

When Duncan returned from rebirth, many things needed to be dealt with. If he hadn't met Tim today, he might have forgotten him.

"Never mind. We’re friends. Let’s go to have a drink! Recently I ran into my destined girl in a bar! She is so beautiful. Let’s go to see my future wife!"

When Tim talked about this, his eyes were shining. He didn't wait for Duncan to reject, but just pulled him into the car and left.

But when they got to the bar, Duncan couldn't help but laughed. Because the place where Tim brought him was Mysterious Midnight Bar!

Thinking of Flora, Duncan looked at Tim strangely.

"Your destined girl is the owner of this bar?"

"Yes, it's her. Her name is Flo..."

Tim frowned. Actually, he had only seen Flora one or two glances. He didn't even have the courage to talk to Flora, so he didn't even know Flora's real name!

"Flora!" Duncan added.

"Yes, it's Flora. Hey, Duncan, how do you know her name?"

Tim patted his own thigh, then looked at Duncan strangely.

Duncan said helplessly, "Because I know her. Our relationship is pretty good."

Tim obviously didn't believe Duncan and gave a humph.

"You? Look at what you wear, it’s not worth a thousand dollars. How could you know Flora? Well, you don’t have to pretend in front of me!"

As he said, he parked the car and led Duncan into the bar.

In fact, Tim just showed off in front of Duncan. Services in the Mysterious Midnight Bar was costly, which was a well-known fact. Ordinarily, it had to consume tens of thousands at a time. Even if Tim had some money, he couldn’t come here frequently.

Duncan didn't intend to expose Tim. In his previous life, Tim helped him lot. So Tim was one or two of his rare friends in his previous life.

‘I’ll let the staff free our bill. I treat Tim this meal.’

Duncan thought to himself. Then the two had already walked into the bar.

At this moment, when a waiter saw Duncan, he hurriedly walked up and was about to say hello.

Tim spoke first, "Arrange a booth for us!"

The waiter was stunned and glanced at Duncan. After seeing Duncan nodding slightly, he smiled and said, "Okay, please this way!"

Hearing it, Tim was very happy. He didn't forget to show off to Duncan, "See, I'm a frequent visitor. The waiters all come to greet me!"

Duncan smiled and said nothing.

He didn't intend to reveal to Tim that he was working as a manager in this bar.

Not long after, the two sat down in a more conspicuous booth near the bar counter.

Tim ordered two dozen beers. They two clinked the bottle.

"Duncan, cheers. We haven't seen each other for a while. Just enjoy ourselves tonight!"

Duncan smiled slightly. Running into Tim by chance made him remember some memories of his previous life. He really wanted to chat with Tim.

But seeing Tim frowning, he couldn't help asking.

"How’s your life recently?"

"Nothing special. The biggest worry in the world is nothing more than women and money. I owned these two now. What else should I worry?"

He was talking, but the look on his face was not as simple as it seemed.

Duncan vaguely recalled that Tim had a beloved girl, but then the girl cheated on Tim.

This made Tim sad for a long time.

Seeing Tim's face now, it seemed to coincide with the things in the previous life.

However, regarding emotional matters, even if Duncan had great skills, he couldn't help Tim. He could only pat Tim on the shoulder, talking and drinking with him.

"Jane, sit here, okay?"

At this moment, a voice that was neither light nor heavy sounded in their ears.

Duncan and Tim turned their heads one after another. Then they saw a man and a woman standing at the booth next to them.

The man looked young, with a brand-name suit, and looked handsome.

The woman was dressed up in dazzling fashion and looked pretty. She was holding the man's arm.

Tim's hand holding the wine bottle tightened a bit when he saw them!

Duncan noticed the change on Tim’s face. Then he looked carefully, only to find that the woman was not someone else, but it was Jane Carter, who was their classmate at university before. Besides, she was Tim's ex-girlfriend. It was her who cheated on Tim!

In the previous life, Tim pursued Jane from freshman to junior year And it was until the senior year that the two finally got together.

However, their love affair was not favored by Duncan.

Jane looked pretty, but she worshiped money very much. Maybe she just fancied Tim’s money, so she would be with him!

Facts proved that Duncan's guess was correct. It didn't take long after graduating from university that the two broke up for some reason.

Knowing these things, Duncan reached out and patted Tim on the shoulder while comforting him, "Tim, forget it. It’s all past! I don't think she is worthy of you at all."
