Chapter 257 Without waiting for Andrews input , the two women eagerly ordered drinks .


    The restaurant manager approached with a respectful smile to make suggestions .


    Ms.


    Rhodes , Ms.


    Aicker , for refined youngdies like yourselves , Id rmend our premium wine selection , the manager suggested smoothly .


    Its gentle on the throat and wont leave you feeling unwell .


    Lauren scoffed at his rmendation .


    Who do you think we are ? Bring us your best vodka ! Francesca pped the table in agreement , adding Exactly ! Wine tastes like fancy water .


    We want the strong stuff ! The manager turned helplessly to Andrew , clearly impressed that this mysterious man had earned thepany of two of Jayrodales most prominent heiresses .


    Andrew simply smiled and said , Let them have whatever they want .


    Their happiness is what matters .


    By the end of the meal , they had barely touched the food but had emptied two bottles of premium vodka .


    Andrew was amazed at Lauren and Francescas tolerance .


    The alcohol level was really high , yet each woman had finished an entire bottle .


    Lauren leaned against Andrew , her breath sweet with alcohol as she murmured , Dr.


    Lloyd , I have a secret Ive wanted to tell you .


    Andrew , who had barely drunk anything himself , smiled and replied , Im all ears , Ms.


    Rhodes .


    11 Lauren moved closer , her perfume subtle and intoxicating as she gazed at Andrew until he felt almost shy .


    Finally , she whispered softly , I … have fallen for you ! The simple confession caught Andrewpletely off guard .


    Looking at Laurens flushed face and stunning features , he found himself at a loss for words .


    The alcohol had made Laurens thoughts fuzzy as she curled up against Andrews chest .


    I dont want to marry into the Driscoll family , she mumbled .


    Ive only ever liked Dr.


    Lloyd .


    I hope youll give me that King of Diamonds … With that , she drifted off to sleep while still clutching Andrews shirt .


    Andrew could only smile wryly at the situation .


    Did he just receive a drunken confession ? However , Lauren had mentioned the Driscoll family .


    It seemed the Rhodes family had arranged a marriage alliance that she clearly did not want .


    Fran , are you okay ? Andrew called out with concern to Francesca , who had also drunk quite a bit .


    Looking up , he found she had already curled up asleep in her corner of the couch .


    Andrew rubbed his temples , wondering what he was supposed to do now that both women had passed out from drinking .
