Shirley glanced at the time and realized it was already 9.30AM. She felt like she had been slacking in her internship.
She went downstairs and the servant immediately put down her work and said, “Miss Lloyd, I’ll prepare breakfast
for you.”
Shirley nodded. “Please keep it simple.”
“Of course!”
“Has Mr. Flintstone had breakfast?” Shirley asked.
“He had breakfast half an hour ago and left,” the servant replied.
“All right, Shirley said. She picked up a glass of water and was ready to take a sip when she heard footsteps coming
down the stairs again.
Tony was making his way downstairs and his hair looked a bit disheveled. He spotted Shirley standing in the living
room and immediately gave her a somewhat ambiguous smile. Shirley, who noticed his grin, couldn’t help but ask,

“Do you not remember what happened last night?” Tony quickly inquired. She was thirsty, so she took a sip of water
before saying. I only remember us leaving the bar.”
After taking another sip, she heard him exclaim loudly, “So, you don’t remember kissing my uncle in the room?”
“Pfft!”
Shirley sprayed the water onto the floor while gasping in shock. She grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth and glared
at Tony. “What did you say?”
Upon seeing her intense reaction, he was taken aback. “Why are you so worked up? Aren’t you dating my uncle?”
She set down her glass and walked toward Tony, and then grabbed his shirt collar and questioned, “What happened
last night? Tell me quickly.”
Did the scenes in her memory fragment actually happen? Did she really passionately kiss a man in bed? Tony
replied, “Okay, okay. Release me first.”
She let go of him and he continued, “I brought you back from the bar last night. You fell asleep on the way and
when we arrived at the door, my uncle showed up.”
“And then?” Shirley asked nervously.
“Then, my uncle scolded me and took you to your room,” he replied helplessly. “Tell me more.” Her face had turned
somewhat flushed as she had a bad premonition.
“Then, you and my uncle stayed in the room for about fifteen minutes. I was worried that my uncle’s injuries might
make it difficult for him to take care of you, so I went upstairs to check. I was shocked to find you two… hehe.” Tony
chuckled knowingly. Shirley’s face felt a bit warm and flushed at his smile. “Don’t make up stories. Nothing
happened between us…”
She refused to accept it. Tony snorted. ‘I saw you kissing each other with my own eyes. Are you trying to deny it?
Are you refusing to take responsibility for my uncle?”
Shirley bit her lip and blushed in embarrassment. She seemed to have grasped more fragments of her memory

She remembered calling Cole’s name and also initiated a kiss. Could she have mistaken. Zacharias for Cole and
forcefully kissed him? Her beautiful eyes widened and she put her hand to her forehead while wearing an
expression of disbelief.
“Mr. Tony, I have forgotten everything that happened last night. There’s no need for you to remind me. Thank you,”
Shirley said before picking up her glass and heading upstairs. She needed to calm down.
Tony watched her embarrassed departure and felt somewhat bewildered. Could she really be so picky as to have an
issue with Zacharias?
She returned to her room and gazed at her bed. Memories from last night assaulted her thoughts. She swallowed
hard. If she had mistaken Zacharias for Cole, she was the one who had him pinned beneath her and she had even
initiated the kiss.
Oh no! She had forcefully kissed Zacharias!
Shirley had never regretted anything in her life, but this was undoubtedly the greatest regret she had ever
experienced. Alcohol was indeed a menace and she decided she would never touch it again..
After cooling down, she decided to bid farewell to her feelings for Cole in her heart and vowed never to do
something so foolish again.
