My Flirtacious Husband

“I’ll drink it!” offered Johanna, panicked.

Johanna did not know how to repay Genevieve after what the latter had done.

Brandy is unlike wine. The former has a higher alcoholic content.

Johanna could not allow Genevieve to drink it.

“No. Only Ms. Rachford is allowed to drink it.” Gabriel glanced sideways at Johanna. “You drinking it doesn’t count.”

Johanna was so furious that her face went pale.

“Why are you being so aggressive, Mr. Jimmond?” Steven, who was standing silently at the side, spoke up coldly. “Before Mr. Faulkner was unconscious, he and Ms. Wood had a great relationship. A lot of projects and collaborations with the Wood family were due to the generosity of Mr. Faulkner. How could the Wood family treat Mr. Faulkner’s wife so badly in return?”

In a demure manner, Gabriel explained, “It’s not me who’s being aggressive. Mr. Wood called and said that his sister was bullied when she was at the Central Group shareholders’ meeting, so much so that the baby in her stomach was kicking around. Not to mention that if it’s so easy to take Ambrosia’s staff away, other guests would start following in Mrs. Faulkner’s footsteps. Sooner or later, there would be no escorts left in Ambrosia.”

Gabriel pointed to the bottle of brandy on the table. “Mr. Wood said that as long as Mrs. Faulkner can finish this bottle of brandy, he would consider that an apology for his sister.” He turned his gaze to Johanna before adding, “And you’re free to take this woman away.”

Steven’s eyes darkened. “Make it two bottles. I’ll drink it in her place-”
