Chapter 45

Kieran was still dressed in a suit. He was tall, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and two shirt buttons were undone, revealing his collarbone.

He managed to stand upright, but his eyes clearly showed he was drunk.

He was such a capable man, yet he had a low alcohol tolerance. Lila found it somewhat endearing.

He steadied himself against the wall.

With his handsome features, he stood there with his eyes half-closed.

Perhaps due to the alcohol, his movements were relaxed and lazy, yet his noble demeanor remained unmistakable.

Cole explained, "Today isn't a business gathering. It was just a casual get- together with Mr. Morgan's friends, and he got a few extra drinks.

"Since Ms. Hart is here, I won't go in. Mr. Morgan hasn't had much to drink, so just give him some hot water and let him sit in the living room for a bit. He should recover soon."

He handed Kieran over to Lila, and seeing her nod in agreement, he left.

The door clicked shut behind him.

Lila helped Kieran sit on the shoe cabinet. "Uncle Kieran, let's change your shoes first."

He complied, and as Lila squatted down to look up at him, her eyes sparkled with a smile.
