Chapter 1301 How Luke Treated Her

Dr. Albus was quite excited when he heard that. If the president of the Pharmaceutical Association served him wine from his personal collection, that would be something worth bragging about to his friends back in A City!

He lifted his glass and said, "Thank you for your invitation, Mr. Abel. It's an honor to have a drink with you."

Abel smiled lazily to cover up the viciousness in his eyes. He lifted his glass and said, "A toast to you, Dr. Albus."

The people around the dining table lifted their glasses. Luca knew that it would be strange if she did not follow what the rest were doing, but if she drank from the glass, she was afraid that she might fall into Abel's trap.

While she hesitated for a few seconds, the other people turned their hands and looked at her.

With no other choice, she lifted her glass and clinked it with the other glasses. The other people began drinking the precious red wine from Abel's personal collection.

Luca brought the glass next to her mouth but did not drink it. Instead, she closed her mouth and let the red liquid wet her lips.

When Abel saw that, he smiled and said, "Why aren't you drinking, Dr. Craw?"

Luca calmly put the glass down and said, "I'm not feeling very well today, so I don't think I should be drinking red wine, n

Abel narrowed his gaze and nodded. "I see. Indeed, you shouldn't drink red wine when you're feeling unwell. Waiter, bring Dr. Craw some fruit juice and water."

"Yes." The waiter nodded and left the room. Soon, he returned with a glass of orange juice and a glass of warm water.

Abel smiled and asked Luca, "Fruit juice and water shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Luca looked at the three glasses of liquid in front of her. She dared not drink anything that Abel offered her.

However, it would be very suspicious if she continued to decline Abel's offer.

Luca smiled gently and said, "They're no problem. Thank you.
