Percy’s expression froze, and he explained in a panic, “No way! You and I are engaged. Why would I do something as unnecessary as that? Besides, the red wine’s prepared by the restaurant.”

Inez narrowed her eyes. “It better be.”

She twirled the glass and was about to drink it when the door to the private room suddenly opened.

A warm, large hand snatched her wineglass away.

Perplexed, Inez raised her head and saw Kieran. “What are you doing here?”

Kieran placed the wineglass below his nose and sniffed while glancing at Percy.

Percy gulped and tried to act tough. “Who are you? You’ve barged into my private room! Please leave!”

He stood up and tried to snatch the glass from Kieran.

Kieran stepped back and coldly splashed the wine on Percy’s face without saying a word.

Percy ceased his movements. He pursed his lips as drops of red wine steamed down.

Upon registering what he had just done, he immediately spat the wine out and wiped his lips clean.

Inez rested her chin on one hand while holding back her laughter, staring at the two men as though she had nothing to do with what was going on.

Kieran was usually composed, but, at that moment, he was furious.

He hurled the wineglass at the wall, smashing it into pieces. “You’re an animal! How dare you try to drug your fiancée!”

Percy was dumbfounded for a few seconds.

He wiped his glasses clean and roared, “Do you have any proof to support your accusation? I can sue you for slander! Also, this is my territory! I’m going to make you apologize to me and
