Louis then closed the door.

The housekeeper stood still outside the door, hesitating whether she should inform Mrs. Lucas about this tomorrow.

Ryleigh turned over, scratched her cheek, and spoke vaguely while sleeping.

Louis sat beside the bed, placed the hangover remedy on the bedside table, and looked at her. "Ryleigh."

She did not wake up, so Louis leaned over and patted her on the shoulder. "Hey, wake up." "Shut... Shut up." Ryleigh waved her arms around her face, smacked his hand by accident, and inadvertently clawed his collar with her fingertips, tearing off a button from his shirt.

The buttons rolled to the bottom of the bed, and Louis grabbed her by her wrists. "Ryleigh Hill, you..."

But Ryleigh happened to be a drunk woman who was sleeping soundly. He stared at the face that was only inches away from his cheeks. And it seemed that the smell of alcohol that she exuded was intoxicating enough almost to push him off the cliff as his Adam's apple rolled twice, and he gulped.

He sat up immediately, calmed himself down for a

moment, and left the room.

The housekeeper informed Larissa about the incident early the next morning. Larissa put down the magazine in her hand, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. "What?"

The housekeeper said, "Madam, the young master did bring a lady back last night. As we all know, the young master is indeed engaged with the Hills' daughter, but what if the young master has found a lady that he likes? What should we do if that were to happen?"

Larissa narrowed her eyes. She knew her son's personality. After his breakup with Xyla Mayweather, the daughter of Mr. Mayweather of Royal Crown Entertainment Co, he had never found another woman. Larissa had never gotten her mind off his age. She was extremely anxious about introducing ladies to him over blind dates, but it was a pity that her son had not fancied any of them.

Thus, she had thought of their family's close-knitted relationship with the Hills. It would be perfect if she could get Ryleigh to get engaged with her son, but if her son really did not want that, she would not dare to push it onto him too harshly.

As such, she had mentioned the engagement three years ago and had not brought it up until now as she was still waiting for her son to voice his opinion on the engagement. The strange thing was that Louis had never objected to the idea of this marriage.

'So why would he bring a woman back home out of the blue?'

It just so happened that Louis was coming downstairs, and his attractive face looked haggard, probably because he had not slept well.

The housekeeper and Larissa exchanged gazes as he pulled out a chair and sat down with a bowl of oatmeal but without bringing up what happened last night. Larissa cleared her throat and asked, "Louis, have you found a woman that you like?" Louis froze in position and then raised his head suspiciously. "What?”

Larissa did not care whether it sounded too straightforward or not as she had to get a clearer picture of the matter first, so she continued earnestly." I mean, if you've found a woman that you like, then the engagement between our family and the Hills... I can always go over and discuss with Uncle Hill to see if we can cancel it."

Louis stared at her. "Why would you cancel the engagement?"

Larissa was bewildered and astounded. Seeing that her son had no idea about what he had done, she was upset at the moment. "If you don't want me to cancel the engagement, then why would you bring a woman back for the night?"

Louis slowly ate the oatmeal in the bowl and gave off a casual smirk. "What makes you think this is a hilarious thing to do?" Larissa put her silverware down heavily. "Louis, I don't care who the lady you fancy is, but since you've chosen that woman, you should issue an announcement or a statement about your relationship. Not to mention that you still have an engagement on your shoulder. Yet, here you are, bringing another woman home for the night. How do you expect me to explain this to Uncle Hill?”

Louis burst into laughter. "Wouldn't Uncle Hill be delighted to know about this?"

"You!" Larissa's face turned purple with anger. "If you don't want to cancel the engagement, then break up with the lady that you brought home last night. And if you wish to be with this lady, then I'll inform the Hills truthfully and give them a proper explanation for that. After all, this mess originated from my useless son."
