Patrick grabbed the cup of water Gwendolyn offered him earlier and took a big gulp of water.
He had no idea the liquor was that strong. Slowly, he grew disoriented as the alcohol took effect.
“I don't fancy women who are too smart,” he answered.
Justin and Julian shared a look and grinned, for that was the most important piece of information.
Right then, Gwendolyn came downstairs in her casual clothes after a refreshing shower. At the sight of
her sons chatting with Patrick, she chuckled and came toward them.
“What are you all talking about?”
The moment Gwendolyn came closer, she detected the pungent scent of liquor.
She sniffed carefully before realizing Patrick looked out of sorts. His cheeks were flushed, and he
seemed to be in a daze.
“Patrick, did you drink?”
Astonishment flashed across her eyes. He must've drank alcohol here.
She turned to her sons, who offered her innocent smiles.
“Mommy, you keep the guest company. We'll teach Juliette her homework,” they said in unison.
The boys didn't like teaching Juliette. As the little girl hated studying, they found it annoying to teach
her.
In the end, they decided silently that Juliette didn't have to be good at studying. After all, they would
support her in the future.

Did they just offer to teach Juliette today?
Gwendolyn beamed. “All right. Teach Juliette well!”
Patrick's lips curved. The boys are smart enough to distract her.
After the kids went upstairs, Gwendolyn looked away. Suddenly, something occurred to her.
“Patrick, did they give you the liquor?”
She belatedly realized that the boys offered to teach Juliette out of nowhere to trick her.
Pursing her lips, she huffed angrily and directed her gaze to the children's room upstairs. However, she
had a guest with her and couldn't yell at them.
Getting to her feet, she offered, “Patrick, do you want some water? I'll get you some. My kids are a little
mischievous, and I'm sorry you had to suffer. Do you feel unwell? Do you need to head to the hospital?”
How much liquor did they give him? What happened to him? Patrick got drunk previously during a
social engagement, but I don't remember him being this drunk then.
Gwendolyn was at a loss for words at how opinionated her sons were. When a male visitor arrived,
they assumed he was an enemy and united against the enemy.
Patrick picked the cup up and took another sip of water.
Squinting his eyes, he mumbled, “I have some water...”

Squinting his eyes, he mumbled, “I hove some woter...”
Shit. He's completely drunk. He can't even speak properly!
Camille happened to come out of the kitchen. “Gwen, dinner's ready,” she announced.
Gwendolyn took one look at the man on the couch and said, “Let's eat now!”
Can he still eat in this condition? Will he slip from the chair and end up underneath the table?
Patrick lifted a hand and waved at her.
“No, I won't eat. I want to sleep.”
Gwendolyn blinked helplessly and wondered what she should do.
Camille inquired, “What happened to Mr. Lowen?”
As Patrick seemed fine earlier, she was astonished to see him in a drunken stupor now.
Gwendolyn pointed upstairs. “Justin and Julian made him drunk.”
Camille's eyes widened in surprise. The boys are usually very obedient. Why would they get Mr. Lowen
drunk?
Gwendolyn gave Patrick a shake. “Mr. Lowen, wake up! I'll help you to your car, so you can sleep back
at home.”
She reached out, prepared to help him back to his car outside.
Patrick's eyes snapped open, revealing that they were a tad red.
“I told the driver to head home, for someone in his family was ill,” came his answer.
