Bailey smiled. “A businessman would be too unprofessional if he focuses on saving her dignity.”

Beside her, the President of the Lincoln Group, Layla’s father, Kenny, and her mother, Sarah, also raised their glasses and insisted on toasting Bailey. Bailey had no choice but to stand up and clink glasses with them.

After three rounds of drinking, Bailey felt a little groggy. Perhaps it was because she was happy, but she did drink a little too much tonight.

She staggered out of the room and suddenly, an external force knocked into Bailey, causing her to take a few steps back uncontrollably. Then, she was pulled forward by someone. In an instant, a strong fragrance that made Bailey dizzy and disgusted rushed into Bailey’s nose.

Instinctively, Bailey’s right hand swiftly moved forward and grabbed the hand that was grabbing her collar. She exerted force and an ear-piercing wail instantly sounded.

“Damn it, Bailey, you b*tch. Let go of me, or I’ll kill you later.” Mason wailed as he scolded arrogantly.

Initially, he wanted to take advantage of Bailey when he saw that she was swaying on her own. She was a beautiful woman who had never experienced sex before. How exciting would it be if he could press her down and play with her?

Unexpectedly, Bailey broke his hand cleanly even though she was already so drunk.

Bailey panted slightly and looked up at Mason, who was in so much pain that he was about to convulse. She smiled evilly and said, “You want to take advantage of me? Do you think a weakling like you is worthy?”

Mason exploded in anger. It was one thing for him to be in pain, but to be humiliated by a woman like Bailey, it was simply humiliating.

Mason scolded, “Bailey, you shrew. You’re fierce, rude, and barbaric. No wonder your boyfriend would cheat on you with your cousin. He definitely can’t stand you like this. Let me tell you, I’m giving you face by taking you. I’m giving you face but you don’t want it… Ahhh!”

Bailey grabbed Mason’s arm forcefully and smiled languidly. “No matter what, I’m still better than you, a man who’s been beaten up by a woman.”

After saying that, Bailey gave Mason’s abdomen another hard kick and said in an extremely arrogant and cold voice, “If you see me in the future, avoid me. Otherwise, I’ll beat you up every time I see you.”

Mason sat on the ground in shame and anger. He gnashed his teeth in anger as he watched Bailey leave, but there was nothing he could do. His entire face was contorted with anger.

After finding someone to treat the wound on his hand, Mason had an evil smile on his face as he stared at the surveillance cameras. How could he allow Bailey to bully him in his own hotel?

Mason handed the medicinal powder in his hand to the manager beside him and said threateningly, “You know what to do. If you fail, your position as the Manager will come to an end.”

A struggle appeared in the Manager’s eyes, but in the end, he still left with a dark expression. The salary given by Mason’s family was not low. He still had a family to support and could not lose this job.

After seeing the Lincoln family leave, Mason’s smile widened. If he were to make Bailey his and announce it, wouldn’t she be in his pocket? Other than marrying him, Bailey had no other way out.

Not only could he win the beauty, but he could also take over the Shear Corporation. This deal was too worth it. If his family found out, they would praise him for doing well.

Bailey was waiting in the private room for Sue to pick her up and catch her breath. Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Bailey frowned and turned around.

“President Shear, you’re really here!” A group of people suddenly came in with wine glasses and greeted Bailey familiarly. “Come, come, come, President Shear. Since we’ve met, it’s not appropriate not to drink. Come, let’s toast President Shear.”

Bailey smiled and looked at the group of people opposite her. Although they weren’t big shots, they were considered seniors in the business world. Although she didn’t really want to deal with them, there was no need to offend them.

Bailey was about to raise her glass when the attendant who had followed everyone in immediately filled Bailey’s glass.

Bailey raised her glass and said politely to those people: “It is my honor that seniors are here to drink with a junior like me. I should be the one toasting everyone.”

Bailey raised her wine glass and was about to pour it into her mouth when an angry shout suddenly sounded.

“Don’t drink!”

Everyone was shocked by this shout and looked at the person who shouted.

Bailey, on the other hand, didn’t care. A thought-provoking smile appeared on her lips. She raised her head and poured the red wine into her mouth. The smooth and fragrant coldness slowly entered Bailey’s throat from the tip of her tongue.

After drinking it, Bailey turned to look at the door with a seductive expression.
