Adam didn’t back down and kept downing one gla** after another. After years of being a lone wolf, today was the first time he enjoyed a meál and drinks with a friend and was content.
The two men just kept drinking, and after finishing two bottles of wine, Adam was no longer sober. His vision had become blurry.
He shook his head, feeling even less coherent.
“I can’t drink anymore… Can’t keep drinking…”
Adam didn’t want to continue, but Remington slammed the table. “Admit that you’ve lost… You can’t outdrink me…
“I lost… You won…”
Adam admitted it, but he spoke in broken sentences. After that, he ended up sprawled on the table.
“Adam!”
Cecelia called his name several times, but he didn’t wake up. “He’s really drunk!”
Remington grabbed Cecelia’s hand, his speech slurred. “Cece… he’s drunk… I’m not… I won…”
After saying this, Remington also collapsed onto the table.
Both men were utterly drunk. Cecelia shook her head and sighed.
She had to call Fredric and Verda to come pick them up.
After about half an hour, Fredric and Verda arrived one after the other.
“Miss Linsey, what happened to Mr. Nelson?”
Fredric entered and was surprised to see two men slumped over the table. He asked in surprise.
“He’s drunk. Help me get him back.”
“Alright.”
Fredric had never seen Remington drunk before. Even in a bad mood, he had never been this intoxicated.
Besides, Mr. Nelson had a high tolerance for alcohol. How did he manage to get drunk today?

After Fredric helped Remington leave, Verda arrived a few minutes later. “Miss Linsey!”
“Adam is drunk. Can you take him to the hotel, get a room for him, and let him rest?”
“Sure.”
Verda supported Adam out of the restaurant, and Cecelia followed them.
She left Verda to handle Adam and headed to the Nelson family’s estate to pick up her child.
When she returned to the estate, Fredric had already taken
Remington to his room upstairs. As Cecelia pa**ed by, she heard Remington vomiting.
Seeing Fredric a bit flustered, she entered the room. “I’ll take care of him.”
“Alright, Miss Linsey.”
Fredric made way for her, and Cecelia sat beside Remington, patting his back.
Remington was struggling with nausea but couldn’t vomit. Cecelial sighed lightly, saying, “I told you not to drink so much, but you insisted. Now you’re suffering, aren’t you?”
Hearing Cecelia’s voice, Remington said in a daze, “Cece…”
His big hand waved, and Cecelia reached out to catch it. He then pressed her hand against his chest.
“Cece is mine… mine…”
Observing the scene, Fredric thought he probably wasn’t needed there and quietly exited the room.
He understood now that Mr. Nelson was likely not as drunk as he seemed; he was just seeking sympathy.
“How do you feel now? Still uncomfortable? Should I make you some sobering soup?”
Cecelia was about to leave, but Remington suddenly pulled her back.
Cecelia was caught off guard and fell against his chest, caught between his strong arms.

“Don’t go, Cece…”

Cecelia stayed still, and through Remington’s shirt, she could hear his strong heartbeat and feel his warm b*dy.
“Cece… My Cece looks… so beautiful…”
The man was drunk and kept rambling.
Cecelia stayed in his embrace for a while, her heart racing uncontrollably. She struggled to sit up and said, “Alright, you should rest now. I’ll go ch*ck on the kids!”
“Don’t go… Stay with me…”
Remington pulled her back again, and Cecelia again fell into his arms. This time, he didn’t let her go.
Relying on his instincts, he found her l*ps and k*ssed her. pa**ionately.
At this moment, the children were all asleep. Cynthia, who was taking care of four kids on her own, was already exhausted.
As she left the room, ready to head back, she pa**ed by the main bedroom and saw the lights on inside. Knowing her brother had returned, she wanted to go in and find him.
However, when she entered, she saw the intimate scene. Blushing and embarra**ed, she covered her face and quickly left.
No, she couldn’t peek!
She acted as if she hadn’t seen anything!
Fortunately, she didn’t scream just now. Otherwise, her brother would surely give her a hard time!
As Cynthia left Aroma Villa, she thought with a satisfied smile. It seemed her brother was progressing with Cecelia, which was good!
But when would it be her turn?
She and Shepard hadn’t even held hands yet!
The bigger problem was that Shepard knew she liked him but remained distant and cold towards her. How was she going to resolve this?
On this quiet night, Aroma Villa was peaceful.
The room’s temperature gradually rose as the man immersed himself in this pa**ionate k*ss. Cecelia pushed him away saving

“Alright! You need to rest now!”
She had to leave; otherwise, she feared she might lose control.
After caring for Remington and ensuring he was stable enough to sleep, Cecelia left the room.

She went to the children’s room and saw her three sons sleeping in bunk beds while her daughter Doris was in a separate little bed.
Seeing that all the children were fast asleep, she hesitated to take Doris.
Cecelia checked on each child, saving Doris for last.
She gazed at her daughter briefly, k*ssed her gently on the cheek, and then carried her back to the guest room.
As the dawn broke, Doris woke up first. The little girl fluttered her long eyelashes and found herself in her mommy’s arms; her heart was brimming with happiness.
She didn’t say anything, just gazed at her mommy. She looked at her for a long timé until Cecelia also woke up.
“Doris, you’re awake?”
“Yes, Mommy!”
“My good girl!”
They pressed their foreheads together, sharing an affectionate moment.
“Alright, time to get up.”
Cecelia got up with her daughter, and after washing up, she held Doris’s hand and was about to leave the room when she saw the man coming out of the main bedroom.
Remington woke up that morning with a slight hangover and headache. After showering and changing his clothes, he saw Cecelia and their daughter.
“Cece, you didn’t go home last night?”
“No.”
Thinking about how he had managed to k*ss her by pretending to be drunk last night, Remington felt content.
“Come on, Doris. I will take you for breakfast!”

Cecelia rechecked the time, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. “Is she not coming today?
