Chapter 2106 Carter's eyelid twitched, and he quickly interrupted Vermont. ""Have some water. Do you want me to walk you to the washroom?" Vermont pushed him away and rested his hand on Marshall's shoulder. "I really don't understand. What's so good about that woman? She got married to someone else right after breaking up with you. What exactly do you see in her? "Is it because she was pregnant with your child when that accident happened, so you've been feeling guilty and can't forget about her?" Carter had a sudden urge to stuff the dice into his mouth to shut him up.
"How come I didn't realize this guy
talks so much when he's drunk? Does he even know what he's talking about right now?" — However, Marshall's expression remained calm. He took a sip from his glass and calmly asked, "Who is Willow?" "Do you really not remember? Why aren't you willing to get a new girlfriend and settle down if you don't?" Vermont poked his chest as he added, "When Felicity and I went shopping the other day, we bumped into your mom.
"She knew I had a girlfriend and said to me with a sorrowful face, 'You've settled down too. I wonder, when is Marshall's turn.' You can never imagine how downhearted I felt when I heard that."

"But none of these would've happened later if your family were more lenient.
"That child would be about seven years old now, huh? If I had stayed in Rivera back then, I'd do everything I can to save that child for you." Although Marshall looked very composed, Carter noticed a slight ripple in the glass he was holding, suggesting that he was not as calm as he appeared.
Then, Carter reached out and took the glass from Vermont's hand before
offering him a cup of water. "Stop drinking, or you won't be able to walk later. Everyone here has been drinking, and nobody can drive you home." isk." Vermont clicked his tongue.
"Are you saying that I can't hold my liquor? I don't need anyone to drive me back. Instead, you two can drink all you want tonight. I'll get you both home safely later. Also, I promise that Lena and Mrs. Moore won't nag you about it." Carter laughed. "What about you? Is Ms. Thompson not going to scold you?" Vermont frowned. "Let's not talk about her. She's an ungrateful thing. At this point, I don't even want to meet her mother anymore." He stood up unsteadily and said, "1
need to use the restroom. Wait for me here. We'll continue drinking when I come back later." - As soon as he said that, he stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, he managed to grab onto the edge of the couch in time.
Marshall looked at the state he was in and suggested, "Let me come with you." "t's fine." Vermont waved his hand.
"I'm going now. Don't drink without me. I'll be back in a bit." Then, he wobbled out of the room.
Carter swirled his glass and said in a gentle tone, "I've never seen him like this. It seems like he's really into Ms.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThompson." Marshall took a sip of tea and said,
carter, I need your help to look someone up." | Carter smiled. "You should go to the police if you want to do that. I'm justa working man; how can I possibly help?" Marshall kept quiet for a moment before he said, "I'm only asking for your help because I have no other option." He then took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Carter. "I know you have your method. Please look this person up for me. I'll owe you one. If you need anything in the future, just ask." Carter lowered his gaze at the photo without saying anything.
The person in the photo was the same
man who fell to his death at The Hox Club, the one Keegan asked him to investigate. - "It's true that Marshall is looking him up, too," Carter thought to himself.
Carter looked away after a glance at the photo. "I can't help you with this. You know what my wife does for a living. I don't want to interfere with her work.
Besides, I'm not capable of doing that anyway." After a brief pause, he added, "Marshall, there are plenty of other ways for you to investigate someone.
Why ask me and take such a big risk?" Marshall replied flatly, "I wouldn't have come to you if I had other options."
He placed the photo next to Carter's hand and said, "Then show this photo to Lena. This person died from falling | at The Hox Club about five years ago.
Perhaps she was involved in the investigation of that case or had seen him. Please ask her for me." Carter could not say no to that, so he took the photo and said, "I'll try to help, but don't get your hopes up. She never liked me asking her about work." Marshall nodded. "IT understand. Just try your best. I'll try to find out more through other means." Carter then took the photo and put it away.
