Shane handed a napkin over to Natalie.

Just as she reached out to receive it, his phone rang.

“Sorry, let me get this call,” he said, quickly pushing the napkin into her hand before taking out his phone.

“Shane, bad news. Something's happened to Jacqueline,” Jackson said anxiously.

Shane abruptly tightened his grip on the napkin in his hand. “What did you say? Speak clearly. What happened to Jacqueline?”

“She drank?” Shane asked, gritting his teeth. “Why did she drink?”

“Why else?” There was a flash of ridicule in Jackson's gaze as he replied, “Because you got married today!”
