Chapter 1119
“Dr. Sherwood, hasn’t anyone taught you to offer a drink to others before pouring your own?”
“Is that so?”
Jayden retorted but received no response. He calmly picked up the bottle and poured himself a drink.
“Well then, I’ll pour myself one first.”
As Jayden raised his glass to drink, Preston’s fingers suddenly tapped the table.
“Fill it up.”
If he wanted to force him to drink in front of everyone, he would have to suffer the same fate.

“Okay.”
Jayden didn’t say anything and nodded. He put down his glass, picked up the bottle again, and filled up his glass.
“Senior, this is a high-proof drink I brought from the nightclub. Can you handle it?”
“I can.”
After giving Harper a gentle smile, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing Harper frown and look worried about Jayden, Preston was so angry that he picked up his glass and finished the drink in one go
He drank too quickly and accidentally choked. He coughed and looked for tissues, appearing quite embarrassed.
The napkins were within Harper’s reach. She hesitated for two seconds, but eventually took one out and handed it to Preston, who sat opposite her.
The two exchanged eye contact, but Preston looked away from her face and towards the tissue, naturally reaching out to take it.
“Thank you.”
The polite and distant words created a distance between the two, making them seem like the most familiar strangers, without any
further conversation.
