Chapter 765: I Don't Want to Get Married Anymore

Ivan responded, "On the wall."

After speaking, Ivan looked at Teddy and asked, "Did she call you?"

Teddy nodded, "Uncle Baxter also called just now. He said if he sees you, let him know right away, as he's a bit worried about you."

Ivan made a sound of agreement, "Don't worry, I'll go back later tonight."

Teddy wanted to say something more but Ivan interrupted, "Alright, weren't we supposed to drink tonight? It's my treat, so let's enjoy ourselves."

Teddy looked at Ivan like that and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, "Alright, let's drink. We won't go home until we're drunk."

The group of friends often hung out together, and they could all tell that Ivan was in a bad mood, so they didn't say anything unnecessary.

As for why Madison had been calling all evening, no one was really curious enough to ask Ivan.

After a few rounds of drinks, Teddy sat silently with Ivan.

Teddy watched as Ivan finished one glass after another, and he reached out and took the glass from Ivan's hand, "Are you planning to drink yourself into a stupor before you stop?"

When Ivan heard Teddy's words, he glanced at him, "No, I'm not drunk."

"I know you're not drunk now, but if you keep drinking like this, you'll probably get drunk soon." Teddy drank the remaining contents of the glass and placed the empty glass on the table next to him. Then he turned to Ivan and whispered, "Ivan, it's just the two of us here now. Is there something you can't tell me? If you can't, I'll accompany you in drinking tonight. If you can, just tell me."

After listening to Teddy's words, Ivan fell silent for a few seconds, "Do you have a cigarette?"

Teddy got up and took a cigarette from the other table, handed it to Ivan, and lit it for him. Then he took one for himself and found a comfortable position to sit next to Ivan.

"I don't want to get married anymore."

Just when Teddy was becoming impatient, Ivan suddenly said this.

Upon hearing Ivan's words, Teddy froze for a moment while smoking, then turned to look at him, "Are you serious? Or is it just a momentary impulse?"

"Do I look like someone who acts on impulse?"

"No, you compromised before. Why are you suddenly changing your mind now?" Teddy leaned closer to Ivan, "You're not still hung up on Yanis, are you? She has already reconciled with someone else, you don't have a chance anymore."

"Teddy, do you think I'm someone who doesn't know my limits?"

"You know your limits, but why do you suddenly not want to get married? It's not fair to Miss Hope if you treat her like this." Teddy said earnestly.

Initially, Ivan could endure it, after all, she was his mother. But when he saw the surveillance camera in the car just now, Ivan's already dwindling patience completely collapsed. Teddy, after listening to Ivan's words, fell silent for a while. He didn't know what to say either.

In Teddy's memory, Madison was a woman who understood the big picture, but this obsessive control was truly suffocating. If it were happening to him, he might have shut it down directly. Ivan's ability to endure until now was truly remarkable.

Teddy finished smoking, extinguished the cigarette, and proactively poured a glass of wine for Ivan. "I'll drink with you."

Ivan reached out and took the glass from Teddy's hand, his voice sounding low. "Teddy, I really can't take it anymore."

"Does Uncle Baxter know?" Teddy asked.

Ivan finished his last drag of the cigarette and pressed the butt into the ashtray. "You know he has no say in anything. Whatever my mom says is right, and he must obey her orders."

Teddy gently patted Ivan's shoulder. "Have you thought things through when you mentioned earlier?"

Ivan took a sip of the wine. "Last time, I actually wanted to talk to Mila about it, but she had something come up that day and still hasn't mentioned it until now."

"Ivan, to be honest, do you still have feelings for Yanis?" Teddy asked.

Ivan fell silent for a few seconds after hearing Teddy's question. "Yes, I do."
