Chapter 173

 Philip was trying to get her out of her foul mood.

The beeping sound of her phone, alerted her, she picked up her phone and, clicked on the newly sent message, she saw the pictures, of the two of them together, once again.

Tears started streaming down her eyes, she sobbed “I want liquor” she said to Philip, with her bloodshot eyes.

He nodded, and got a bottle of red wine, and poured a glass for her, she drained all, at once.

Philip grinned, and poured more for her, getting her drunk wasn't a bad idea, he thought, as he filled her glass cup to the brim once again.

Jo stepped on the brake, His father secretary lowered her head, when she saw him peering outside the car.

Amanda hugged the radio tightly, fearing for its existence, her mother squinted her eyes on Jo, who was standing nonchalantly behind Amanda.
