Christina blinked. “I would like that.”

“Let’s go, then.” Nathaniel said.

Noticing the exchange, Sebastian felt a tinge of admiration.

Madison, too, managed to deduce the reason. “I’ll make the reservations,” she said with a small smile.

Madison poured her another glass, smiling as she did so. “You must not drink very often, Mrs. Hadley.”

She sipped less than half of another glass, then handed Nathaniel the rest. “I can’t drink–hic–anymore.”
