A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 103 Ignorant

In reality, almost nothing was left of the 300 thousand or so that was Beau’s share from the sale of the houses. His family had less than 50 thousand left. What was more, Kieran’s car was bought with a loan.

Nevertheless, this didn’t stop Kieran from feeling smug in front of William. After all, in his eyes, a knockoff high–end car would never hold a candle to his BMW XI.

William gestured to Jason who immediately dashed over.

“Bring two boxes of whiskey over.”

Jason nodded and ran back to the car to get the boxes.

At the mention of whiskey, William’s male cousins were startled. Good whiskey was expensive. How could he possibly afford it?

Troy and the others stopped walking as well. They wanted to see what kind of whiskey William brought with him. Whiskey came at many different price points. Some were only about fifty Talons while others could cost thousands per bottle.

When Jason brought the whiskey over, Kieran took a look at the writing on the box and guffawed. He slapped his hand against the box and said, “Thirty–year–old whiskey, huh? William, do you know how much a bottle of that would cost?”

William wasn’t sure about the price. “I think it was around two grand.”

Kieran sneered. The market price is approximately 2,250 a bottle. There are six bottles in one box, so that means each box would cost you 13,500! It’s not a big deal if you can’t afford expensive gifts, but you shouldn’t be hauling over two boxes of fake stuff. Do you think I’ve never had thirty–year–old whiskey before?”

Upon hearing that, William opened the box and took out one of the gift–wrapped bottles of whiskey. He opened it on the spot.

As soon as the bottle was opened, the rich scent of the whiskey wafted out. Troy couldn’t resist taking a few deep sniffs. His eyes were gleaming.

He enjoyed drinking and had thirty–year–old whiskey before, but it was only one time. Even now, he could still remember the taste of it. That was why he knew it was the real deal as soon as he caught a whiff of it!

Just as he was about to say something, William frowned and remarked, “You’re right. It does seem fake. Sorry about that. I guess I must’ve been tricked. He instructed Jason to take the whiskey back to the car.

Troy quickly stopped him. “It doesn’t matter if it’s fake. It smells alright to me. Take it up to the house.”

William glanced at Troy and said solemnly, “Grandpa, as your grandson, how could I possibly allow you to drink fake whiskey? What if you fall ill? I wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences.” With that said, he Jason to put the whiskey back in the trunk and bring over two boxes of tea instead.

Troy’s expression was stormy as he glared furiously at Kieran. Nevertheless, since Kieran said it was fake, Troy couldn’t say it was real as he didn’t want to embarrass his grandson.
