In the business world, drinking was inevitable. At most, you just drank yourself into oblivion, woke up after a good sleep, and everything went back to normal.
After the previous nightclub incident, Faye Fordham knew Shalma Hughes's alcohol tolerance like the back of her hand. She watched Mrs. Winslow down glass after glass, only to pour herself more...
Eventually, Shalma couldn't hold on any longer. She excused herself and walked straight out of the private room. Faye immediately followed. Upon stepping out, she saw that Shalma hadn't gone far. She was pressing herself flat against the wall and, upon seeing Faye, immediately collapsed onto her.
"Faye, I'm done for. I think I'm drunk. My head is spinning," Shalma said. She tried to stand up on her own but failed after several attempts.
Although Faye was a trained fighter with more strength than the average girl, it was still quite difficult for her to carry the full weight of a drunk woman.
