Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 1349

Winona hesitated for a few more seconds, but eventually, she got up and walked over.

She found Harold Huber's memorial and gave a quick bow.

"Harold, don't blame me, all right? Your grandson told me to grab these. I'm just the messenger here. If you're upset, go haunt him, not me, okay?"

She muttered a bit more to the photo before she dared to move.

She grabbed two bottles of liquor and, on a whim, snagged two fresh glasses as well. Only after sneaking back to Keaton did she bother to check what she'd actually taken.

One look and her hands literally shook.

"Holy crap-Pappy Van Winkle Reserve and a bottle of limited-edition Russian Standard Gold?!" she gasped.

Winona stared at the bottles, then at Keaton. "Are you sure you want to drink these?"

Just a quick Google would tell you-each bottle could buy you a house in the suburbs!

Keaton, totally unfazed, just grinned. "That's right. Tonight, we drink the good stuff. Open 'em up!"

Winona swallowed hard, set the bottles aside, and went to grab the takeout they'd ordered.
