Chapter 289 The Reason For The Change

Timothy, about Finnegan, he-

Just as Bernice was about to stop him, Finnegan raised his hand. “Bernie, since your cousin has said so, I must drink this wine.”

Yet, there was a faint unease in her heart.

She felt that Millicent and the others didn’t seem to be genuinely apologizing that night.

She kept feeling as if there was some sort of conspiracy going on.

Following Bishop, he began to toast Finnegan in apology, even offering three cups in one go.

In response. Finnegan did not refuse and drank it all.

Then, Sapphire raised a glass of red wine to toast Finnegan.

Seeing Finnegan down four shots of vodka in such a short time, and that too in two-ounce glasses, Bernice couldn’t help but utter again, “Timothy, Queenie, maybe you guys should call it quits?”

“How could I do that?” Timothy gestured to Queenie to refill Finnegan’s empty wine glass, all the while speaking in a jovial tone. “I was the one who suggested toasting and apologizing one by one. How could I possibly back out now?”

Raising his wine glass toward Finnegan, he said, “Come Let me toast you three times. From this moment on, we are family.”

Bernice’s expression tightened slightly. “Finnegan?”

It seemed like Finnegan had drunk too much. His face was somewhat flushed.

Hearing Bernice calling him, he waved his hand and said, “It’s okay, I can handle it. Besides, everyone’s having a good time. How could I possibly dampen the mood?”

Raising the wine glass, he stood up and said, “Come on. Let’s down three glasses in a row!”
