Chapter 1343 She Wanted to Run Away

Luca lifted her head, and the two pairs of eyes met, which caused her to shudder involuntarily.

Sue took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet. She smiled and said, "I'm in the mood today. Shall we all have a drink? I know it's weird to pair red wine with fish, but we're all friends here, and we don't really mind that, do we?"

Luca's alcohol capacity was quite high now, and she did not have to drive herself home later, so she had no problems with drinking during dinner. She nodded and said, "Alright."

Luke did not voice his opinion.

Jason said, "Let's not, Sue. Ms. Crawford drove here. If he drank wine, how is he going to drive home later?"

"If he can't drive home, he can spend the night here," Sue said matter-of-factly. "Mr. Crawford, if you don't want to spend the night here, I'll get some freshly-squeezed orange juice for you. That's what the children are drinking too."

Luke glanced at the bottle of red wine in her hands. He knew that Jason had bought some bottles while on a business trip in France a few years ago, and Jason had planned to save them for a special occasion.

"Red wine is fine." Luke made his decision. He did not want to be drinking orange juice together with the children.

Sue nodded and asked the caretaker to bring four wine glasses. "That's more like it. It's a special occasion today, and we ought to drink some wine to celebrate it. If you can't drive, I'll get a cab for you."

Jason massaged his temples when he heard what Sue said.

The caretaker brought four wine glasses to the table. Sue uncorked the wine and poured it into the glasses. "We don't have time to decant the wine, so let's just drink it straight from the bottle. This wine has a great texture, and it's quite good even if you don't decant it."

"Thank you," Luca said with a smile as she took the wine glass from Sue's hand.

"Don't be a stranger, Dr. Craw," Sue said magnanimously." Right, calling you 'Dr. Craw' sounds too formal. Is it okay if I call you by your name?"
