“Your face is red. Did you drink too much just now and get drunk? I’ll get Zachary to bring you to rest and take some hangover medicine?” Shawn said with concern.

Bailey refused, “No need, I’m fine.”

Bailey was someone who could drink too. It was inevitable for her when she socializes in the business world.

Bailey knew very well what was going on with her complexion today. It was just that she was suddenly hit by the alcohol. Coupled with the ambiguous experience just now, Bailey found it a little hard to control her emotions.

“Since Second Grandpa said so, just listen to him obediently. Let’s go, I’ll bring you there,” Zachary said calmly.

“Yes, yes, yes. Zachary, take good care of the young lady later, understand? You can’t always bully her. It’s outrageous!” Shawn looked at Zachary, who had suddenly become more sensible, in satisfaction and reminded him.

Bailey was not pretentious. Since it was said by an elder, she could not decline, so she left with Zachary.

As he watched the two of them leave, Shawn became increasingly satisfied. These two people were so compatible.

Zachary wanted to bring Bailey back to the room he had just booked, but when he thought of what had happened just now, he instantly felt that it was not appropriate. What if the room still smelled?

At this moment, Bailey only wanted to go back quickly. She realized that her thoughts were really too sinful. Zachary was clearly dressed neatly in front of her, but Bailey felt that Zachary was naked.

“Well, I’d better go back first,” Bailey said. Then, she turned around and left, not even daring to say goodbye.

Zachary grabbed Bailey. “Why are you in such a hurry?”

Bailey thought to herself, how could she not be anxious? If they continued to interact, what if her beastly nature appeared and she pounced on Zachary?

“I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with. It’s very urgent,” Bailey said perfunctorily.

Zachary was a little angry. He thought that Bailey was burning the bridge after crossing it. After receiving his promise to help, she turned against him and was unwilling to even spend more time with him.

Zachary handed the thing in his hand to Bailey and said, “Second Grandpa asked me to give it to you.”

Bailey turned around and looked at the pastry in his hand. Wasn’t this the cake from the banquet hall?

When he met Bailey’s puzzled gaze, Zachary explained proudly, “Second Grandpa said that you drank too fast and as such it’s easy to burn your stomach. He asked me to bring you something and you can eat something to relieve your pain.”

Looking at Bailey’s questioning gaze, Zachary felt a little uncomfortable. He quickly let go of Bailey’s hand and turned to leave.

Before leaving, Zachary did not forget to say with a cold expression, “You’re an idiot who doesn’t have any common sense in life. I’ll turn stupid if I see you too much. Hurry up and leave. Don’t harm others.”

Bailey looked at Zachary’s retreating back view and was instantly amused.

It was obvious that Zachary wanted to care about her, but he couldn’t bring himself to do so, so he used Shawn as a shield. He really had a proud and awkward personality.

If it was Bailey in her previous life, she would probably really think that Zachary had no choice but to care about her. However, in this life, Bailey could clearly feel Zachary’s concern and love for her.

Bailey looked at the cake in her hand and left with a smile.

After watching Bailey get into the car and leave, Zachary found someone to follow and watch Xavier.

At this moment, Xavier was suppressing his anger and looking at Julia opposite him. He questioned, “Did you deliberately put that necklace in my pocket?”

Julia did not expect Xavier to suspect her. She felt extremely aggrieved and cried, “Brother Xavier, how can you slander me? How could I do such a thing? Since I already know that you and my cousin are just putting on a show, I have no reason to do such a thing.”

Xavier stared fixedly at Julia’s face, trying to find any traces of her lying on her face.

When Julia saw that Xavier was only staring at her without saying anything, she was a little flustered. It wasn’t easy for her to be with Xavier, so she couldn’t give up.

Julia knelt on the ground and placed her hands on Xavier’s knees. Her words were filled with humble pleading. “Brother Xavier, I want you to be well. You’re everything to me. I know that you’ve been working hard for our future. I definitely won’t do anything to ruin it. Brother Xavier, you have to believe me.”

Xavier looked at Julia, who was kneeling at his feet and trying to please him. The humiliation he felt from Bailey gradually dissipated.
