When Zoey had been younger, she had also had a crush on Xavier. She had kept up with his life and had initially wanted to marry him.

But now that he was blind, she had chosen Jeremiah, who was currently more accomplished than Xavier. She no longer cared about her past feelings. She said, "Xavier, Yvette, let's have a drink."

To make it easier for Xavier, she handed the glass to him. All he had to do was raise his hand to take it.

However, Xavier didn't take the glass; instead, he grabbed Yvette's hand. "My wife and I don't drink. Go toast with someone else," Xavier stated.

Zoey froze and looked at Jeremiah. Jeremiah picked up his glass and handed it to Zoey. "If Xav and Yvette won't drink, we will."

"Alright," Zoey agreed and drank it.

Initially, the couple had been supposed to toast only their closest family, but Jeremiah ended up toasting to everyone present. He drank all the wine Zoey couldn't handle.

By the end of the engagement party, Yvette finally saw Zachary.
