Chapter 1123 Damien's Friend
"l..." Colin's voice trailed off, growing softer until it was nothing more than gentle, rhythmic breathing.
After a few moments, the woman in the bed quietly slipped out, carefully covering him with a blanket. She sighed softly, sounding
a little amused.
"Didn't you say you wanted to hear my story? In the end, it waslistening to yours." She shook her head with a gentle smile.
"How childish."
The following day, Colin woke up on the floor and found himself covered with a dark blue blanket he hadn't had the night before.
When he stood up, he discovered his bedroom was impeccably neat. It was so clean that it didn't feel like his room. A strange
feeling washed over him.
Suddenly, his phone rang. It was Otto calling to remind him about thepany meeting. Colin quickly grabbed a formal suit and

As he hurried downstairs, he saw Lucy in the dining room, smiling as she wiped the face of a small boy who looked about four or
five years old.
Hearing footsteps, the boy looked up first. "Wow, Mommy, your husband looks just like Cherry's husband!"
Colin froze, staring at the boy. Is he... Lucy's son?
"Where are your manners," Lucy gently chided, tapping the boy's head. "His nis Colin."
"Oh." The boy nodded before looking back at Colin. "Mommy, your husband, Colin, looks just like Cherry's husband."
Lucy rolled her eyes before turning to Colin, standing in a daze on the stairs. "Are you heading to thepany? Skipping
breakfast?"
Colin snapped out of his thoughts, feeling a bit awkward. "Yeah, I'm running late. There's something urgent in thepany."
He rushed to the doorway to put on his shoes and coat.
"Hmm." Lucy raised an eyebrow at him. "You should stop mumbling to yourself at night and get to bed early to have breakfast in
the morning."
Colin paused. Did she hear everything last night?
He pursed his lips, mumbled a quick response, and dashed out the door.
Outside, Otto leaned against the car, watching Colining over in his suit. He seemed a little lost in thought. "You're starting to
look more like my boss."
Colin exhaled deeply and got into the car. "I hope | can handle the shareholders at today's meeting like him."

It was his first day as the president of Gray Group. Knowing he had to face the employees and the numerous shareholders was
daunting, to say the least.
"Don't worry too much," Otto reassured him with a smile. "Given your inexperience, my boss has arranged for a friend from Lenoir
Group to help you."
Colin's eyes widened. "Really?"
Having Damien's help was already a pleasant surprise, but now he has even sent his friend to help me.
"Who is this friend? Are they also business experts? Are they well-known? Will the shareholders accept them?"
Otto was not sure how to answer Colin's barrage of questions. After briefly pausing, he cleared his throat, saying, "My boss' friend
is brilliant and famous. Actually... it's Lennon."
Colin's jaw dropped. "Lennon?!"
Hearing the name, Colin almost fell out of his leather seat. "Why him?"
