"Yonas, if we can't finish it, you can take the rest back for your grandpa," William said with a chuckle. Irene laughed. "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Would Mr. Russell really want the leftover wine?" "You're right, that's my bad," William replied. "Yonas, I've got plenty of fine wines in my cellar.
