Chapter 1173:

But things took a turn when Juliet’s whole family showed up and insisted on treating Cliff to a meal as an apology for Juliet stepping on Laney’s toes.

Philip had previously instructed him to handle the Foster family’s matters properly. Considering how Juliet had helped Madison before and how respectful the whole Foster family currently was, Cliff couldn’t turn them down.

As a result, Cliff ended up drinking too much, and by the time he left the table, his head was pounding. Feeling his presence in this state at Laney’s competition would be pointless, he asked Madison to tell Laney not to expect him.

Drunk, Cliff found himself later sleeping in a hotel room.

When Cliff woke up, it was already late. He checked his watch and noted the competition had ended a while ago. Rubbing his temples, he felt a strange emptiness. He figured Laney would likely be mad at him again and probably end up crying.

Cliff sighed, ignoring the headache, and headed for the restroom, intending to take a shower before setting off to pick Laney up.
