"Rain, he would be drunk if you do that." Leena said anxiously. She was aware of Nathan's personality, so she worried that Rain's inattentive attitude might irritate him.
"It's okay. I'll drink with you, young man." Nathan took another drink immediately. He knew why Rain was doing this, and he thought, 'It looks like a lot of people like Leena. It doesn't help that I don't like her.'
Kevin frowned and thought, 'Even if I help my dad drink this cup of wine, Rain might not let him off easily. Forget it. Anyway, my dad's not a bad drinker. He won't get drunk that easily.' Kevin consoled himself and silently watched what was happening.
"Uncle Nathan, since they're all toasting you, I'm not gonna be left out. Here, let me propose a toast. I hope you take more care of Leena. She is a good girl." Tom smiled faintly and then drank his wine in one gulp. He was not as gentle as he used to be.
These people were all speaking for Leena, which made Nathan change his mind about her. 'There is a reason why everyone here is very protective and caring for this girl. She must have a lot of good qualities. Otherwise, it would not have been possible for so many people to like her this much, ' thought Nathan. Nathan looked at Tom admiringly, and then drank the wine, feeling a little fonder of Leena.
Everyone toasted Nathan at the meal, so he got a little drunk. Everyone got along very well and the atmosphere was not as tense as expected. It was a little awkward, but fortunately there were no major issues. Nathan was finally willing to reflect on whether he was too hard on Leena.
As an industry owned by FX International Group, the Kate Hotel was fully loaded and well equipped. Here, people didn't have to worry about getting drunk, because those who got drunk were sent to the guest rooms so that there would be less trouble for them.
"Is it proper for father to stay in a hotel?" Leena said nervously. He stayed at the Grand Apartment last night and Claire stayed at the villa.
"Don't worry. My mom's here with him. Besides, Tom is staying here, too." Kevin comforted her. Lloyd was not as drunk as Nathan, so he went back with Duke. They both drank quite a bit, so Belinda drove them home. As for Edward, Daisy could take care of him. So, only Tom and Rain, two single men, stayed the night at the hotel.
"I think it's inappropriate to let father stay in a hotel. It makes us look uncaring and distant." Leena frowned. Although the Kate was the most exclusive hotel in S City, Leena felt it was not a good place for Nathan to stay.
"It doesn't matter. My father drank too much today. It's not good for him to go out like this. Don't think much of it." Kevin pressed the button of the floor they were going and hugged her as they went into the elevator. In fact, Kevin also drank a lot of wine, but he was still sober.
"You're right. He's in his army uniform." Leena suddenly realized that, and thought, 'Why didn't I think about that? It was these haughty guys who made my father-in-law drink so much. Although Kevin helped him drink a lot, he is still very drunk.'
"That's right. Can you drive me home?" As soon as they walked out of Kate Hotel, Kevin gave Leena the car keys and raised his hand to rub his dizzy head.
"What's the matter? Are you feeling sick? Is your stomach all right?" Seeing him like this, Leena asked anxiously.
"I'm fine. Where's Claire? Why didn't I see her?" Kevin asked doubtfully. He had just seen Claire saying something to Leena and then she disappeared without a trace.
