As Colton departed, Beryl exhaled a sigh of relief. He turned his gaze to Wendy, who was still in a state
of shock, or more accurately, self-reproach.
She understood her brother's disdain for Nicole and the circumstances that led them to their current
predicament. Similarly, she was also aware of Nicole's actions and whether she had betrayed him.
Caught in the middle, she found it challenging to navigate the situation. Despite her careful efforts to
maintain a balance between the two parties, the situation spiraled out of her control.
Beryl glanced at Nicole, his expression distant. He sighed quietly and turned to Chloe. "I'll leave Nicole
in your care. Wendy will leave with me."
Chloe was slightly startled when he addressed her. Before she could respond, the man before her had
already departed, leading Wendy away as if she were a precious jewel.
It was understandable. With such an exceptional woman by his side, how could he spare a glance for
her? His flirting back then was merely to gauge Nicole's situation, so she should not be overthinking it.
"Let's go, Nicole," Chloe whispered to Nicole, whose expression made her uneasy.
Nicole snapped back to reality and nodded stiffly, signaling her agreement. At last, they exited the
restaurant after Beryl had settled the bill before his departure.
Once outside, Chloe instinctively searched for him, but he and Wendy seemed to have left hastily and
were nowhere in sight. She felt a twinge of disappointment and withdrew her gaze, slowly assisting
Nicole and making their way toward the apartment.

Back home, Nicole behaved absentmindedly and locked herself in her room. Regardless of Chloe's
pleas, she refused to open the door. She would never forget the look in Colton's eyes—a blend of
disgust, revulsion, and hatred.
She caressed her stomach, suddenly questioning the wisdom of her decision. Even if it was a mistake,
it was too late for regrets. Since things had reached this point, she had no choice but to press on.
Meanwhile, Colton returned to his hotel room alone and shut the door. The voices of Beryl and Wendy
echoed from outside, but he did not move to open the door. He felt a sense of indescribable betrayal.
"Please open the door, Colton. Don't lock yourself in your room, okay?" She persistently knocked on
the door and pleaded, fearing that Colton would resort to alcohol again. His habitual drinking had
already impacted his health. If he drank excessively because of her, how could she face their parents,
let alone herself?
On the other hand, Beryl knew Colton would not want to see them. Perhaps he doesn't blame her at all.

"Wendy, you should rest for now." He comforted her with a pat on her shoulder, touching the room card
in his pocket without pulling it out.
She turned to him and suddenly remembered that he had the key to Colton's room. She clutched the
corner of his clothes and implored, "Don't you have his room card? Hurry and use it. Aren't you worried
about him being alone in his room?"
She could not think of any other solutions and had to rely on Beryl. Seeing her anxious expression, he
felt a pang of heartache but knew that Colton might not want to see her at the moment.
"You must understand that in times like this, your brother prefers to be alone. You should go back and
rest, and I'll handle this. Okay?" Beryl had no choice but to persuade Wendy to leave with a different
approach.
She was taken aback by his words but had to concede that he was right. Her brother did not want to
see her right now. "I understand, Beryl. Please ensure he doesn't overdrink." She finally nodded with a
bitter smile, reminding him not to let Colton drink excessively before she turned and left, retreating to
her room.
In situations like this, it was best to leave matters in Beryl's hands.
