The dinner, orchestrated to be a relaxed affair by Grace, was fairly enjoyable.

The only hiccup was when Murray ordered a bottle of red wine.

By the time the wine was finished, he was visibly intoxicated, his eyes blurry with drunkenness.

Grace paused for a moment.

"Don't get me wrong. At this hour, Sadie would have already left, so there won't be anyone at the mansion. But with Mr. Sherwood in this state, he'll need someone to look after him. If you don't mind..." Grace responded, "Of course, I don't mind. Let's go then."
