Chapter 457

John was surprised. “Are you here to attend a social gathering?”

Isabelle nodded. “Yes. I’ve followed my dad to such gatherings a few times, but I’m still not used to it.
The room was filled with the smell of cigarettes. I seized the chance to sneak out when they were a
little drunk. This kind of gathering is a torture.”

John smiled and kept the lighter, deciding not to smoke.

Gazing out the window, Isabelle continued, “In fact, I’m a light drinker. I didn’t want to come, but my dad
insisted that I should get used to such gatherings.” After saying that, she put on a smile. “You know that
my brother is still young, so as the elder sister, I have to pave the path for his future. As my dad’s
health has declined, I guess I’m pretty useful at this point.”

She guffawed upon finishing her words as though what she had said was just a joke.

John understood the situation the Bailey Family was in. Isabelle’s younger brother, Dexter Bailey, was
still a student. Naturally, the other men from the other branches of the Bailey Family wanted to seize
the chance and divide up the company.

Old Mr. Bailey was aged, therefore he had less energy to take care of the company. Hence, he needed
a helper at this point, and the only person he could trust was Isabelle. Despite that being the case, it
was difficult for Isabelle to transition from a carefree debutante to a businesswoman.

It’s really tough for her. Gazing at her, John’s expression changed. Sometimes, he thought there were
many similarities between them.



Isabelle let out a sigh and tapped on her chest. “I feel unwell after drinking some wine. Do you think I’m
useless?”

With his hands tucked in his pockets, John gazed out the window. “You will get used to it. Sometimes,
there are responsibilities we can’t dodge.”

Isabelle’s lips quirked up. “For example—” She suddenly halted her words as she understood it wasn’t
a good topic to bring up, so she changed it a little. “Take you as an example. I can see that you don’t
like to attend such social gatherings either, but you’re trying to get used to it.” She wanted to talk about
his marriage with Sophia.

Turning to her, John put on a smile.

A while later, Isabelle had to return to the private room. Before she left, she said in a helpless manner,
“I hope the gathering will be over soon.”

Seeing that John remained silent, Isabelle heaved a sigh and left.

Moments later, John returned to his own private room. A social event like this wouldn’t end without
most of the people becoming inebriated.

John took a seat and fell into silence. A short while later, when someone came to him with a glass of
wine, he put on a smile and picked up his glass. “Alright, Mr. Mccoy. Let’s drink.”

Upon gulping down the wine, he directly refilled it and said to Mr. Mccoy, “Come on, I apologize for
going out just now. Let’s drink again.”



Mr. Mccoy was flattered since John showed so much respect to him. After a few rounds, he couldn’t
take it anymore and slumped into a chair, dozing off.

John was a heavy drinker, so when he was done with Mr. Mccoy, he still could go straight to another
person.

William was a little drunk, but he understood what John was trying to do. Therefore, he supported his
forehead with his hand and fell into silence as he watched John drinking with his fellow businessmen.

After getting a few more people drunk, the gathering was officially over.

Since John gulped down the wine too quickly, he was unable to take it as well. Taking a seat, he panted
and pinched his glabella.

The chauffeurs of the intoxicated businessmen came in and helped them out.

Without the need for any support, John and William took a rest for a while and walked out of the private
room as they reached for the elevator.

Just then, the door of another room was opened as Old Mr. Bailey came out with Isabelle.
