He wasn’t just drinking a little; maybe it was because he was at home and didn’t have to worry about the consequences of drinking too much.
Gina Sutton’s gaze remained fixed on him after landing on him, always waiting for the opportunity to get close to him.
Tonight, she came prepared.
She couldn’t afford to make the same mistake as last time!
The banquet was still going on at eleven at night.
At eleven thirty, Adrian Walyon left early, pulling Summer Sutton to the master bedroom in the Walyon family home.
Ryan Walyon was left alone to handle the scene.
The guests directed all their toasts to him at once.
Ryan Walyon was clearly not doing well, as Gina Sutton could clearly see him rubbing his temple several times, seemingly trying to stay awake.
He was just trying to hold on, attempting to appear like he wasn’t seriously affected, but his unsteady posture betrayed him.
Gina Sutton watched this quietly, her red lips gently curling up.
The Old Master was also watching Ryan Walyon.
The old man felt sorry for his grandson. At eleven forty, he directly ordered the servants to escort Ryan Walyon back to his room.
Gina Sutton’s gaze followed the direction Ryan Walyon left in, watching as he stumbled and fell to the ground just a few steps out of the banquet hall. She slowly stood up.
Calmly walking towards him, pretending not to know anything, she asked with concern, "What happened to Ryan? Did he drink too much?"
"Yes, the young master drank a bit too much tonight," said the servant.
"He seems quite drunk! Would you like me to help?" Offering her arm to Ryan Walyon, Gina Sutton helped the servant lift him up.
She had been to this house countless times, always behaving well in front of the elders. The Walyon family elders liked her, and so did the servants.
The servant didn’t have any suspicions and, together with her, helped Ryan Walyon back to the room.
Ryan Walyon was evidently unconscious, not even resisting her nearing him like he usually did.
This made Gina Sutton, who was initially a bit nervous, completely relax.
"Uncle Chapman, I’ll look after Ryan, you go prepare some sober-up soup for him!" Gina Sutton suggested, assisting the servant in settling Ryan Walyon onto the bed.
"Thank you, Miss Sutton." The servant nodded and turned to leave the room.
Once the servant’s shadow disappeared, Gina Sutton immediately shut the door of the room.
Returning to the bedside, she quietly stared at the man on the bed.
The Walyon men all had distinctly handsome features.
If she couldn’t marry Adrian, marrying Ryan wouldn’t be too bad.
"Ryan!" Tentatively, Gina Sutton called out to the man on the bed.
Ryan Walyon’s long eyelashes lay tightly shut, with no reaction.
"Ryan!" Gina Sutton called out to him again.
However, the man on the bed showed no response.
Ryan was truly drunk, quite heavily so.
Gina Sutton achieved what she was hoping for.
"Let me help you take off your clothes; you might sleep more comfortably!" She leaned over, removing one piece of Ryan Walyon’s clothing after another.
The man on the bed showed no reaction throughout, making Gina Sutton act even more boldly.
She took off her own clothes and slid into the bed beside him.

Uncle Chapman took half an hour downstairs to make the sober-up soup. When he went upstairs, he hesitated upon seeing the closed door.
Gina Sutton was still inside, and the second young master was drunk. With a man and a woman alone behind a closed door, Uncle Chapman thought it best not to disturb them, quietly carrying the soup back downstairs.
