Chapter 1161 Uninvited House Guest
Colin felt that Mandy was being a bother.
"No, I must see her today!" Mandy insisted. She looked up at Colin and smiled. "Mr. Gray, do you know where they're gathering for drinks? Can you take me there?"
Colin rolled his eyes in exasperation. "I have no clue!" He yawned, continuing, "If you don't want to go, I won't get rid of you, but I really need some sleep. If you're willing to wait, go ahead. Otherwise, please remember to lock the door when you leave." With that, Colin stood up and left.
Mandy pursed her lips, rolling her eyes in his direction before settling back onto the sofa to keep waiting.
In the presidential suite of a luxurious five-star hotel in Yatesville, Lucy lay on the bed, completely drunk, her face flushed. She kept weakly pushing away a man's hands that were trying to wipe her face. "Don't... don't touch me!" she slurred. "You scoundrel..."
The man whose hands they belonged to forced a bitter smile, his actions gentler. She had drunk a lot that night and had already thrown up twice. As a neat freak, she would have a breakdown if she woke up to find herself in such a state in the morning.
"Sob... Damien, you scoundrel..." Another slurred female voice echoed in the room. Damien rose, steadying his petite, intoxicated wife, who had started babbling. "I'll take her to the next room to rest."
Lennon nodded without turning around. "Thank you for your help."
As Colin descended the stairs, he discovered the woman covered by her coat, dozing on his sofa. The television in front of her continued to broadcast the day's financial news. On the screen, a woman bearing a striking resemblance to the one on the sofa confidently presided over a conference room discussion at the seat of honor, speaking with others earnestly.
The voice of the woman on the television passionately declared, "Since taking over the presidency, Mandy Wool has significantly elevated Tanner Group's influence in recent years. Despite her young age, Mandy has steered the group with remarkable precision. European media have even hailed her as a business prodigy..."
Colin stood speechless, mesmerized by the image on the television screen. He turned his gaze to the woman before him, peacefully asleep with her eyes closed.
