Chapter 1300: Chapter 399 Help Me Undo the Button_3 Chapter 1300: Chapter 399 Help Me Undo the Button_3 Kak thought of something, and hesitated again, “What if Cather… Uncle, as you know, her methods are not weak. I suspect she dares to do this because she may already have a countermeasure.”
Listening, Logan chuckled coldly, “Haha, we haven’t done anything. Without evidence, would she dare accuse me falsely? If she really dares to do so, not to mention our Bebo Family’s million-strong army isn’t just for show, even the elders of the Lionheart Family will absolutely not allow it. At that time, the Alliance will immediately crumble. The smarter she is, the more she will understand the seriousness of this.”
“Moreover, do you really think reaching the Seventh Rank, a Transcendent Realm, is a casual affair? If she doesn’t comply with the times, such a woman is a disaster waiting to happen anyway. Don’t blame our Bebo Family for disregarding past affection!”
“…”
With these words, Mick’s face finally looked much better.
But as he watched the empty elevator descend from the floor above, his heart suddenly felt as if it was stabbed, burning with jealousy.
Countless people saw Catherine Carter take that man to the top floor into her own suite. What was their relationship, if one needed to guess?
You should know, that is the private room of the Allied Commander, usually frequented by no one but the maids.
…
Leonard Churchill and Catherine Carter returned to the suite.
As soon as they entered, several maids waiting at the door for a long time respectfully said, “Miss, would you like to rest now?”
Catherine Carter waved her hand grandly, “No need, I still want to drink some wine with Leonard. We don’t need you here, go attend to other things.”
The maids: “Yes, miss.”
Since they knew there were spies among the maids, it was dispiriting to keep them around.
They had seen all there was to see, so they might as well dismiss them.
The two entered the room, and the door closed behind them.
Catherine Carter walked straight to the liquor cabinet, took out a few bottles, and said, “Last time you clearly said it was your turn to invite me for drinks. But luckily, Miss Alice sent over a few bottles of precious wine, so I’ll invite you this time.”
Leonard Churchill listened and smiled, “Hmm. Next time, I definitely will.”
“Good, it’s a date,”
As she spoke, Catherine Carter had already casually taken two large wine glasses from the shelf, “Alice said this wine is a specialty from the Southern Continent, very precious.”
Leonard Churchill, not thinking much of it, helped open the amber-colored wine, and instantly a delightful fragrance wafted through the air.
He couldn’t help but exclaim, “What kind of wine is this? It smells wonderful.”
It must be said, the aroma alone made it clear this wine was very, very special.
Something seemed hidden in Catherine Carter’s sparkling eyes as she merely introduced, “Alice said it’s a secret wine made from an ancient mythical recipe.”
Listening, Leonard Churchill also became very interested, “Oh?”
In this world, there are many Secret Skill wines, just like potions, with magical replenishing effects.
Speaking, they each poured some of the amber liquid into their glasses.
“Cheers~”
The crisp sound of glasses clinking echoed through the spacious room.
Leonard Churchill swirled the wine glass, trying to distinguish what it was, the complexities making it hard to articulate.
But the aroma itself had an intoxicating effect.
He took a sip, and immediately a warm flow streamed down his throat.
In an instant, he felt his whole body heat up, the effects of the alcohol still radiating.
Just one sip, and it gave an ethereal, floaty feeling.
“Wow, what a fine wine!”
Leonard Churchill couldn’t help but exclaim.
You should know that alcohol is also a type of Paralysis Poison, and his Sixth Tier toxin resistance is extremely high; normally alcohol, besides a slight fragrance, would almost not affect his body at all.
But this secret wine actually made him feel a bit tipsy?
And upon closer appreciation, the aftertaste was endless, as if the medicinal herbs in the wine were still nourishing his body.
Catherine Carter, of lower tier, also chugged hers in one go, showing even more obvious effects.
The alcohol’s effect was instantaneous, and her cheeks flushed unconsciously.
“Mmm! Indeed, it’s a great wine. The best I’ve ever had.”
She looked at Leonard Churchill, her flushed face adding a seductive allure.
Previously, drinking was social; now, drinking was life.
Catherine Carter added, “I haven’t tried it before either. There were just two bottles. I thought of saving them to drink together when you came.”
As she spoke, she poured some more into their empty glasses.
Leonard Churchill smiled, raising his glass again, “My honor.”
This sip was taken more carefully, slowly savoring, only then discovering the wine was even more potent than expected.
Catherine Carter also raised her slender neck and took a sip.
Because they were quite close, Leonard Churchill’s gaze naturally followed her swan-like neck downwards, then to an expanse of snowy white depth.
The low-cut evening dress had just the right amount of sensuality, coquettish yet not vulgar, glamorous yet not tacky.
For some reason, his gaze seemed unable to move away.
Just then, as Catherine Carter gulped down her last sip and placed the glass down, she caught the gaze that had fallen on her chest.
Far from feeling embarrassed or trying to cover anything, she instead chuckled mischievously, teasing, “Oh, you didn’t look when I was changing earlier, but now you’re interested?”
Listening, Leonard Churchill lightly laughed and shook his head, as if also used to being teased by Catherine Carter without knowing when it started.
Both of them didn’t take it seriously, finding the atmosphere very relaxing, and they continued chatting about some light topics.
After two more drinks, Leonard Churchill settled onto a high stool.
Catherine Carter’s dress wasn’t suitable for that.
The courtly style voluminous dress, designed for ultimate grandeur with wire reinforcements, meant that from the beginning it could only be worn standing up.
