Everyone else held their breath as they watched in utter silence.
Nichol was the first to speak. The kis is supposed to be on the lips.
So, this doesnt count, he mumbled.
Marco frowned, but said nothing. He simply picked up the glass of wine that Loraine had just poured and drank it in one gulp.
Is that enough? he asked Nichol.

Nichol nodded, Of course.
Loraine, on her part, was feeling a little restless. Her face, especially the part that Marco had kised, was very hot.
She tried to pretend as if nothing had happened, but she failed miserably.
What made it worse was the fact that Marco was still sitting next to her.
She closed her eyes for a while and then got up on her feet. I have something urgent to do, so Im going home. You guys can continue the game, she said with a forced smile.
Im also leaving now, Marco said and got up too.
Carl knew what his boss was thinking, so he quickly came to his assistance. Miss Torres, Mr. Bryant just drank a glass of wine for your sake. Since its not safe for him to drive, can you give him a ride?

Loraine froze.
Her aim was to avoid facing Marco any Longer, and now, she would have to sit in the same car with him?
No way! That would not happen!
She cleared her throat and replied, Youre his assistant. Why cant you drive him yourself?
Carl smiled and pointed at the bottle in front of him. Ive drunk a lot myself. Besides, Mr. Bryant has given the driver a holiday, so hes not available.
Loraine was speechless.
She just didnt know what to say. She tried to think of something, but her mind was blank. Already, Marco was smiling, thinking that she was going to agree with Carls idea.
But Loraine pointed at Nichol and said, He hasnt had any wine. He can take Marco back home.
With that, she picked up her bag and hurried out of the place.
Marco stared at Nichol, which made Nichol shiver in apprehension.
He couldnt help but remember all the mistakes he had made in the past few years. He knew Marco could easily decide to punish him now for all those past mistakes, so he decided to apologize immediately.
