Chapter 53 Pouring Wine


    Chapter 53 Pouring Wine


    "Miss Yonng has been engaged to Henry for so many years but hasn''t married into the Herbart


    family. Is it because she has an unmentionable disease?"


    Flora red at Tammy with a fierce expression.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? Henry and Miss Yonng have a sweet rtionship and are


    about to get married."


    Not far away, Vivian stood quietly, looking elegant. Tammy narrowed her eyes, secretly specting.


    Three years ago, Vivian and Henry had their engagement ceremony, but since then, the two


    families had yet to discuss the wedding.


    It was strange. Louis had already gotten married, but Henry showed no intention of getting married.


    "Are they about to get married? That would be great. They should hurry up, or I''ll be a grandmother


    soon."


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Tammy''s words hit a sore spot in Flora''s heart.


    To be honest, Henry and Vivian were a perfect match in terms of appearance and family status.


    Flora had long wanted them to get married and have children.


    However, Henry kept making excuses, saying there was no rush to get married. He refused to get


    married no matter how Flora persuaded him.


    Flora decided not to stay here to embarrass herself anymore and left with a clenched jaw.


    In a secluded corner of the banquet venue, Cathy drank alone with a sullen expression.


    She regretted pushing nche into the pool. Otherwise, nche''s real identity as a pretty girl


    wouldn''t have been exposed by her.


    It was like shooting herself in the foot and hurting herself badly.


    ......


    "This isn''t the way home." Louis drove silently all the way.


    nche nced at the route and realized it wasn''t the way back home.


    Louis raised his hand and looked at his watch.


    "It''s still early. I need to go somewhere first."


    The car stopped in front of a bar and Louis got out.


    nche also got out of the car and looked up at the shing bar entrance. She wondered where


    they were going, but it turned out to be a seedier bar.


    She followed Louis to the entrance of a private room. Louis pushed the door open and went in, and


    nche said, "I''ll go to the restroom first."


    Louis didn''t stop her.


    After nche went to the restroom and returned to the door of the private room, she overheard their


    conversation.


    "Isn''t it Old Mrs. Herbart''s birthday banquet tonight? Why are you out here ying?" Nicky asked


    Louis.


    "The banquet is over."


    "After it''s over, instead of going home, youe out to y. Oh, I see. nche is too ugly and you


    can''t stand looking at her at home, so you came out to y."


    Nicky continued to mock.


    "If I''m forced to marry someone like nche, an ugly freak, I don''t know what I would do. Although


    ugly girls are pitiful, I just can''t face them."


    What?


    nche frowned. An ugly freak like her? Humph, that was a despicable description.


    She pushed the door open and walked in. Nicky, who was speaking, hadn''t realized that nche


    had entered.


    "Louis, don''t you have nightmares living with nche?"


    Seeing nche approaching, Daniel started coughing.


    "Ahem..."


    Daniel had juste from Doris''s birthday banquet. The dramatic scene of nche transforming


    from an ugly girl to a beautiful one was already etched in his mind.


    Nicky didn''t go, so he still didn''t know the truth.


    "Since you have a cold, why are you out drinking?" Nicky didn''t realize what was going on and


    instead showed concern for Daniel, thinking that Daniel was really coughing.


    Daniel was speechless. This idiot was beyond help.


    "Mr. Green, did nche provoke you? It''s not nice to talk behind someone''s back, right?"


    A clear female voice sounded, and Nicky turned around. nche walked over.


    Nicky''s eyes lit up instinctively. This unfamiliar woman was incredibly beautiful. Howe he had


    never seen her in Cloud City before?


    "Who are you and who let you in? I didn''t invite you." However, this woman dared to challenge him.


    In Cloud City, who dared to speak to him like that? Nicky intentionally acted dismissive.


    "Honey, why is your friend so silly? Was his head hurt before?"


    nche walked straight to Louis and tapped her own forehead before bending over and picking up


    a ss of juice to sit down.


    Nicky''s eyes widened. This woman, who seemed not to be pushed around, actually called Louis


    honey and sat next to Louis.


    Oh, so Louis really disliked nche.


    Wait, this woman''s voice was so familiar. He must have heard it somewhere before. Looking at


    Daniel''s meaningful gaze, Nicky remembered it in an instant. It was nche''s voice, wasn''t it?


    "Are you nche?"


    nche took a sip of the juice and put it down.


    "Don''t call my name anymore. Just call me an ugly freak, as you wish."


    Nicky was dumbfounded. This beautiful woman was really nche. Could someone tell him what


    was going on?


    Daniel raised an eyebrow, smiling with an air of mystery.


    "Something big happened at the banquet today, and you missed the exciting scene. What a pity."


    Nicky scratched the back of his head vigorously and then showed a face of shame.


    "nche, don''t make things difficult for me. I''m sorry. I was just joking. Please don''t mind."


    "Don''t stand in the way and find a ce to sit." Louis looked up at Nicky who was standing in the


    center.


    Nicky sat down as instructed, and nche nced around the room. Besides her, there were four


    men and five women. The women seemed to be the men''spanions.


    nche yawned, crossed her arms in front of her chest, and stared at the screen in front of her. A


    sappy love song was ying, and she would rather go back to sleep.


    At this moment, a charming woman poured a ss of wine and walked affectionately to Louis.


    "Mr. Herbart, this is the champagne you like."


    Her soft voice gave nche goosebumps. Upon closer inspection, she found that the woman had a


    slim waist and long legs and was quite attractive. nche stopped yawning.


    Instead of reaching out to take the ss of wine, Louis nced sideways and looked at nche.


    nche squinted slightly. It was obvious that this woman was interested in Louis.


    The others stopped ying around and turned their attention to this dramatic scene.


    nche put down her hand from her mouth and lowered her gaze. This woman clearly didn''t take


    her seriously. Did the woman think that calling Louis ''honey'' was just a formality?


    And Louis didn''t refuse the woman, which meant that he didn''t take nche seriously, either.


    Seeing that nche actually lowered her head and ignored this scene, Louis withdrew his gaze,


    looked down, and simply epted the wine.


    "Thank you."


    The woman immediately smiled knowingly. nche sneered. It was obvious that the woman was


    deliberately embarrassing her.


    The atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. nche could tell that those people were all


    looking at her with a judgmental gaze.


    nche squinted again. Humph, she could salvage the situation herself.


    "Pour me a ss too."


    nche raised her chin, pointing to the champagne in Louis''s hand and looking at the woman.


    The woman immediately looked angry.


    "You have juice, don''t you? Besides, you misunderstood. I''m not a waitress here." Suppressing her


    anger, the woman exined softly.


    nche could of course tell that the woman wasn''t a waitress here, and she rested her cheek on


    her hand.


    "I don''t want to drink juice now. I want champagne. You''re not a waitress, but can''t you pour me a


    ss of wine? Didn''t you just pour a ss of wine for Mr. Herbart? Do you look down on me?"


    nche smiled, her lips curling upwards.


    The woman''s face froze as she stole a nce at Louis. It seemed that nche was not as easy to


    bully as she had imagined.


    She couldn''t bear the humiliation to pour wine for the wife of the man she liked.


    However, the way Louis looked at her was too indifferent, and he didn''t intend to speak for her at all.


    She took a deep breath and poured a ss of wine for nche, bringing it over. nche epted


    the ss and smiled brightly.


    "Thank you."


    After walking back, the seductive woman nced at the empty seat next to Louis, suppressed her


    desires, and sat in a corner.


    In the short confrontation just now, she realized that she couldn''t confront nche head-on.


    "The wine tastes much better than juice."


    nche took a gentle sip and savored the aftertaste.


    When the light shone, her beautiful face seemed to be in full bloom, particrly charming.


    Knowing that she couldn''t drink, nche only took a sip and then put down her ss.


    The woman, on the other hand, decided to leave quietly. If she stayed here, she would only


    embarrass herself more.


    Daniel and Nicky exchanged a nce, admiring nche in their hearts. nche was quite smart,


    driving away the woman who wanted to get close to Louis with just a ss of wine.


    Louis nced at the distance between himself and nche and realized that since the woman left,


    nche had moved slightly away from him as if she didn''t want to sit close to him.


    nche knew how to take advantage of him.


    As his wife, she couldn''t endure any grievances, but she didn''t show him any kindness.


    The femalepanions brought by others all sat considerately next to their men, peeling grapes


    and feeding them wine. How understanding they were!


    Louis came to the conclusion that nche was a different kind of woman.


    Feeling bored, nche yawned again.


    Nicky enthusiastically suggested, "Let''s y dice. The losers have to drink."


    Everyone nodded in agreement and sat down one by one, except for nche who remained


    uninvolved.


    "nche,e over quickly. We''ll be divided into four teams, and you and Louis will be on the


    same team. Both members of the losing team have to drink."
