She didn’t argue and downed the glass of red wine in one.
gulp.However, her alcohol tolerance was too low. After a few
glasses, her fair cheeks were especially rosy from the alcohol.
However, she was not bad at drinking. When she drank too
much, she just sat in her seat and supported her head with her
hands.
Initially, she thought that it was still manageable and could
continue some professional topics. However, as they chatted,
the person in front of her started to have double vision.
She felt light–headed and her head felt heavy.
Britt did not expect her alcohol tolerance to be so bad. “Ms.
Cummings’s alcohol tolerance…”
“She doesn’t usually drink. This drink is too strong.”Alan picked
up the wine bottle on the table and looked at it. He said at the
right time, “How about this? It’s getting late. I’ll send her back
first.”
Lottie heard someone talking, but she was still in a daze. It
seemed like someone was helping her out.
Chapter78
She came with Alan today. The reason why she dared to drink
was because she knew that there were acquaintances present.
When there were more men than women at the dining table,
they were destined to drink.
She didn’t mind giving Britt face so that the communication in
the future would be smoother.
However, she did not expect the red wine to have such strong
aftereffects today.Alan had just helped her out of the restaurant
when a black Bentley slowly stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down and Lewis sat in the back seat. He
glanced at his hand on Lottie’s shoulder and reminded him in a
businesslike manner,
“Mr. Livingston might have to return to the private room. Britt
still has some professional questions to communicate with you.”
When he was about to leave, he didn’t hear what Britt said.
Alan frowned. “But Lottie drank too much. Should I send her
home first before coming over?”
“It’s okay.”Lewis pushed open the car door and grabbed the girl’s
slender waist. He said calmly, “I’m leaving anyway. I’ll send her
off.
Chapter 78
His tone was as normal as if he was doing a good deed every
day.
Alan was worried. “Mr. Pollard…”
“Mr. Livingston,”
Lewis’s expression was so indifferent that no emotion could be
seen. “Are you afraid that I’ll abduct her to some remote
mountain forest?”
“..“Alan choked. He had also heard a little about his past with
Lottie from his teacher.
Before that incident back then, he had always been a good
brother.
Thinking of this, Alan did not insist. “Then I’ll have to trouble
Mr. Pollard.”
Lewis nodded and carried her into the car.
The sudden soaring allowed Lottie to regain a trace of
consciousness. She frantically crawled on the leather seat and
sat up.
Her eyes were misty as she subconsciously called out, “Brother
Alan…“The car drove slowly on the road. The streetlights were
Chapter78
blocked by the branches on both sides of the road, and the
dappled light shone into the car, making Lewis’s deep and tough
face look even colder.
“Are you close to Alan?”
This voice was too familiar. It was so familiar that it dispelled
the panic in Lottie’s heart and he let down his guard.
She leaned against the headrest in a daze and said truthfully,
“Not bad.”
“Brother Alan… treats me very well.”
The man looked at the girl’s fair and moving face. His eyes.
surged as he patiently guided her. “Isn’t Lewis good for
Easy?““Lewis?”
It had probably been too long since anyone called her by her
nickname.
Perhaps it was because alcohol was too relaxing, Lottie
muttered and felt a little sour in her nose. However, even
though she was drunk, she habitually held back her tears.
Her mouth compressed, but she was relieved. “He… he doesn’t
want me anymore.”
Chapter78
She still remembered how she was ruthlessly sent back to
Erma’s side seven years ago.
It was too deeply rooted.That was the first time she trusted
someone other than her parents wholeheartedly.
She treated him as her salvation, as her family.
He treated her like trash.
“He didn’t.”
The man’s expression was dark and unclear. His throat rolled.
He wanted to say something else, but he saw that the girl was
about to fall asleep again.
He asked in time, “We’re still staying at Greenwood Estates,
right?“””No, I’m moving.”
The girl’s voice was soft and unguarded. She whispered
carefully, “Building Fairmont Avenue, Block Scenic Ridge2,
Level 21.”
The car shook slightly as it passed through the speed bump, and
her head swayed in midair.
Lottie only felt that she could not sleep well until it was as if a
big hand was holding her head.
Chapter78
She narrowed her eyes in pleasure.
