In the event hall, the dinner had ended, and after saying goodbye to the guests, Layla was about to leave with Eric.
Eric had not rested throughout the day, and though he did not seem tired, Layla had to make sure that he lay down.
"I will go check on Hayden first." Worried about Hayden, she decided to drop by Hayden's room.
"Yeah. He doesn't usually drink, right? He drank quite a lot today." Eric was grateful for Hayden's help with the guests.
"I don't live with him, so I don't know how good his tolerance for alcohol is. He doesn't really drink when he is around us." Layla recalled how flushed Hayden looked when he left the hall.
"Yeah. Let's keep him away from any alcohol tomorrow," Eric said.
"I'm just worried that he might throw up at night, and no one is there to look after him." Layla hurried toward the VIP rooms, and when they arrived before Hayden's room, Hayden's bodyguard immediately bowed respectfully to them.
"Why are you standing outside the door? Did my brother tell you to?" Layla asked.
The bodyguard shook his head. "He drank too much. I was worried he might need me in the middle of the night, so I decided to wait outside for a bit."
"I will go in and have a look." Layla reached for the doorbell.
The bodyguard stopped her. "He is probably already asleep. Don't worry. I'm standing right here. If something is wrong, I will discover it right away."
"Do you have the keycard to the room?" Layla was worried that the bodyguard might not hear the sounds inside the room.
"I asked the manager for the spare keycard." The bodyguard showed her the keycard.
She nodded. "Make sure you go inside later. If he throws up, make him some tea."
"Sure," the bodyguard said. "You guys should get some rest!"
"Okay."
