Damn hangover.
Everly felt her head was about to explode.
Recently, Everly woke herself up with the alarm clock every day because of jet lag.
When she woke up today, she felt that her head was too heavy to lift.
She sat up with her hands supporting her head. She felt thirsty and dry in her throat and even something wrong with her stomach.
In a word, she felt dry all over.
She vaguely remembered that she was drunk yesterday.
However, she could not remember what had happened after getting drunk.
In the past, Everly didn't know that she would forget everything after getting drunk. And she still couldn't remember it no matter how hard she tried to recall.
Later, she knew it.
Therefore, in the past few years, she had never been able to remember who the man she had a one-night stand with was back then.
Everly stretched out her hand to press her temples and sat there dumbfounded for ten minutes, but still was unable to sober up.
Hangover was terrible.
But she still had to go to work today. Also, before she went to work yesterday, she promised Edmond to to take him to the kindergarten today.
Looking at the time, Everly swallowed her saliva and got out of bed with her hands supporting herself.
She staggered to the bathroom. When she was brushing her teeth and washing her face, Everly suddenly thought of something.
No way. Wasn't she drunk last night?
How did she get home?
She hurriedly washed her face, changed her clothes. When she went downstairs, she saw Edmond was eating breakfast in the living room. Seeing here her daughter coming down, Gloria waved, "Come here to eat."
Realizing that Everly wasn't well, Gloria sighed, "Your brother sent you here late last night. He said that you drank too much. Everly, don't work too hard. It's unnecessary. We don't need you to earn money to support our family."
As she spoke, she brought out a bowl of tea which would help with the hangover, and said, "Here, drink this first."
"Mom, it was my brother that sent me back last night?" Did she meet her brother at midnight?
It shouldn't be that coincidental.
Did Maverick contact her brother?
That was possible.
Everly felt a little guilty. Now that her brother must know she had become that man's secretary. It was a normal change of job, but she felt a little uneasy though she couldn't tell why.
"Who else could it be?" Gloria also sat down and said, "I have to go to the hospital later. Your father is in good condition and will be discharged in a few days."
"Okay, then I'll go see him after work today."
"There's no need for you to go there." Gloria looked at her precious grandson and said, "Edmond, I will pick you up after school today, okay? I'll take you to see Grandpa."
Edmond swallowed the buns in his mouth and nodded, "Alright, Grandma."
"Good boy."
Everly hurriedly ate something and said, "Edmond, I will send you to school later."
Edmond nodded.
When the two of them left the house, Edmond said, "Mommy, I called you at midnight last night, but I was hung up. Uncle said you were drunk. Do you remember?"
"Did you call me?" Everly took out her phone and checked. There was no missed call but she found Edmond's call from the record. She thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I wasn't sober so I hung up. Get in the car."
The Farleys also had a driver. Hendrix specially got one after Edmond began to go to school.
