Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies novel Chapter 1128

Chapter 1128

Only Ken rode in the same car with Anne. He noticed that Anne’s mood was not too good, and on top of that, Leonora had told him on the phone that Mr. Marwood looked very angry.

The two of them were probably having some problems.

It was already almost eight at night when they arrived downtown, and they only started having dinner then.

She was familiar with such business dinners. All this had nothing to do with her in the past, but at that moment, she had to learn to get used to it.

She was considerably able to handle the socialization at the dinner with ease. It was just that she was certainly not as good as her father when it came to holding their liquor.

Someone commented on it at the table. “Ms. Vallois, you’re already flushed after only drinking this bit of alcohol. You really can’t compete with your father in these.”

The person who said that was a long–tenured employee of the company, and he was almost the same age as Nigel, so he was able to say it without causing any discomfort.

Anne smiled humbly. “That’s a given. I can’t even be compared to Mr. Trujillo’s ability to tolerate someone’s shortcomings.”

“However, other than being unable to hold your liquor, you’re comparable to your father, maybe even better than him, at managing the company!” Mr. Trujillo praised her.

“This is my father’s life’s work. I will certainly manage it well,” said Anne.

“Here, Ms. Vallois, I’ll drink to you!”

Ken, who was next to her, was afraid that she would get drunk, so he got up and drank in her stead.

Later, Anne practically did not touch the alcohol anymore, and nobody insisted on forcing her to drink either.

It was a simple business dinner, to begin with.

When they left the restaurant after having dinner, it was already past nine at night.

Anne felt she was floating a little as she walked in the night breeze.

Ken helped her stabilize herself by supporting her gently. “Ms. Vallois, are you alright?

“Yes. My mind is still clear!” Anne waved her hand and bade all the leaders goodbye.

After all of them left in their cars, she got into her car.

She looked back and saw that Ken had no intention to get in the car. She knew he was preparing to hail a cab himself, so she said, “Get in. I’ll give you a lift. I’m not in a hurry to go back anyway.”

Ken wanted to say very badly, ‘Really? Aren’t you mad at Mr. Marwood? Is it alright to not go home?‘

“It’s fine, Ms. Vallois. I’ll be able to get a cab very quickly. Take care, Ms. Vallois.” Ken closed the door and signaled the driver to start driving.
