Chapter 1161 Uninvited House Guest

Colin felt that Mandy was being a bother.

"No, | 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 takethere?"

Colin rolled his eyes in exasperation. "I have no clue!" He yawned, continuing, "If you don't want to go, | won't get rid of you, but |

really need ssleep. 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,pletely 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."

Damien frowned and glanced over at Lennon, "Cherise can't handle alcohol well. Just one drink, and she'll end up like this. I'm used

to it. Actually, it's Lucy," he paused, his voice lowering, "Lucy hardly ever gets drunk. In the past, when they went out drinking,

Lucy would always be the one to look after Cherise. | didn't expect their roles to reverse today."

"If you're worried, why did you say such things to hurt her?" He sighed. "Because of you, she drank too much and ended up drunk

like this. And yet, you still snuck over behind Violet's back to take care of her."

"I'm left with no other option," Lennon said, his brow furrowing as he took another damp towel, delicately wiping the groff

Lucy's body. "If I'm not ruthless to her now, she'll keep seekingout in the future. Violet already doubts mymitment to her.

If Colin hadn't driven her away earlier, she would've surely found a way toplicate things for Lucy."

"All | can do is try my best to make her resentand keep her distance from me," he continued, lowering his head to gaze at the

woman's flushed face. "This way, it's better for both of us."

Back at Colin's villa, with an unexpected visitor lingering downstairs, Colin tossed and turned in his bed upstairs, unable to find

sleep. After feeling restless for two hours, he abandoned the struggle. He decided to venture downstairs to chat with Mandy, his

uninvited house guest.

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.
