Chapter 15
It seemed that Griffon was not interested in Roman’s
comparisons.
Roman said nothing more and led me to sit opposite him.
As soon as we sat down, a man in an expensive suit opened a bottle of wine and handed it to me.
“Taya Palmer, right? Can you drink?”

I didn’t know who this man was, and the suddenness of his offer made me feel uneasy. I hesitated,
unsure of what to do. I wasn’t sure if he was a wolf or not, so I didn’t know if he was offering me regr
wine, or wineced with wolfsbane.
Wolfsbane would ki ll me.
Seeing me hesitate, the man suddenly smiled. “Don’t worry. There isn’t any wolfsbane in this.”
The man’s gentle demeanor put me at ease.
I epted the wine and took a small sip, but I still felt unsure about drinking it.
The woman sitting next to the man noticed my hesitation and began to sneer.

“Beta Starke, the girlfriend you found is awful. Preston kindly poured her a drink, but she’s too scared
to drink it. How rude.”
Preston… This must be Griffon’s cousin, Preston Knight, also a yboy but not as depraved as
Roman.
When I was still Griffon’s secret lover, I never met any of his family or friends.
I couldn’t help but take a few more nces at Preston. He looked a little simr to Griffon but not nearly
as cold as him.
The woman’s face darkened when she saw that I didn’t bother to
react to what she said.
If it were anyone else, they would have understood what she meant and apologized to Preston, then
they would have drunk the entire ss of wine as to not seem rude. I knew what she meant, but the
words were for Roman to hear not me, so I decided to y du mb.
Frustrated, the woman turned to Roman. “Beta Starke, without Preston, you wouldn’t even have had
the chance to meet
Griffon, let alone talk about the project,” she scolded. “But your girlfriend doesn’t even want to drink a
ss of wine. How are we going to have funter?”
