Freya smiled warmly as she clinked her glass against theirs, the crystal producing a delicate chime.

Trent observed the interaction with keen interest, adjusting his gold-rimmed spectacles before turning to Ellis with calculated precision. “Shouldn’t you, as Freya’s devoted boyfriend, assist her with these numerous drinks?” he suggested, his voice dripping with implication.

“It’s her celebration today; a few drinks won’t cause any harm,” Ellis responded, completely oblivious to Trent’s underlying motives. “Even if she becomes slightly intoxicated, I’ll personally ensure her safe return home.”

“We’re not talking about merely a few drinks,” Trent countered, his strategy unfolding with remarkable subtlety. “After Frederick finishes, the others will undoubtedly take their turns toasting her as well. Freya’s tolerance for alcohol isn’t particularly high. As her boyfriend, don’t you feel obligated to intervene?”

Ellis paused, contemplating this unexpected perspective. The role of a caring boyfriend certainly seemed to require protecting his girlfriend from excessive drinking, he reasoned silently.
