Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1450 Had One Too Many

"Given the recent flurry of activity at the base and the rapid progress we've made, I propose we give everyone a well-deserved break this weekend," Chloe suggested, shaking her head slightly.

The team's high motivation had expedited progress, resulting in several significant breakthroughs. That would undoubtedly free up time for other tasks in the future. Once the new recruits arrived, the pace would further accelerate.

"Yeah, what's up?" Wendy nodded, walking past Beryl to find Colton sprawled on the bed.

"My brother…" She pointed at Colton, her nose wrinkling at the strong smell of alcohol.
