    Hannah nced at hisputer screen,menting, “But your work isn’t finished yet.”


    “Can you wait for me for half an hour?”


    His gaze met hers with sincerity.


    Under their locked gaze, Hannah''s heart skipped a beat, feeling butterflies in her


    stomach.


    She looked away andpromised, “Okay, but no more than half an hour. Not even a minute more.”


    “Alright.”


    Noah immediately returned to his seat, quickly getting back into focus to tackle his pending tasks.

    The ambiance was lively, with colorful lights and chatter.


    When Hannah and Noah arrived, most other guests had already gathered in the private room, enjoying themselves.


    Noah, deeply engrossed in medical research for years, had never concerned himself with affairs of the Lawson Group or


    attended any social gatherings.


    He did not enjoy the heavy atmosphere of alcohol, frowning as soon as he stepped in, looking aloof and detached.


    Hannah sensed his difort.


    As they entered, she whispered to him, “If you’re notfortable, you can wait outside or take a cab back to the Moore

    She quickly put on a warm smile as she turned her attention back to the room. However, Noah grabbed her wrist, his tone

    Then, she replied casually, “I’m the heir of the Moore Group, responsible for improving the family business. Whether | like it or

    “What are you doing here? This ce isn’t suitable for you. You should leave.”


    Noah shook his head resolutely.


    “If you can adapt to this kind of scene, | have no reason to feel ufortable.”


    Since he insisted, Hannah did not push further. Instead, she took his hand and led him to an empty sofa, where they sat down


    together.


    Noah lowered his head, staring at the hand she held.


    The warmth of her palm felt reassuringly real.


    Throughout the evening, Noah blocked all the toasts meant for Hannah as drinks were passed around.


    After three rounds of drinking, a rosy flush appeared on Noah’s handsome face, and he seemed noticeably tipsy.


    Hannah shook her head helplessly.


    Drinking this much on an empty stomach and still holding up after three rounds showed his good tolerance.
