Due to the little awkwardness that just happened, Alice Turner didn’t reach out to take the glass of wine Thomas Fisher offered her. Out of courtesy, she smiled and declined, "Thank you! I’ll pass, I still have to drive later."
Saying that, she politely pushed away the glass held in front of her.
Even if she were not driving, she still wouldn’t drink. She knew her alcohol tolerance—two small glasses and she’d be drunk. She didn’t want to make a fool of herself.
Besides, she didn’t co here to drink. She ca here to et her sister.
"Alright then, we won’t force you."
Thomas Fisher didn’t insist on making Alice Turner drink. For so reason, being rejected didn’t make him feel unhappy or angry at all.
Since Benjamin Shaw arrived, he hadn’t interacted with Alice Turner at all. Faced with her interaction with Thomas Fisher, he chose to remain silent, yet his gaze couldn’t help but follow her.
The only reason Alice Turner ca here tonight was because of Lily Turner. If she had known earlier that Lily wasn’t coming, she wouldn’t have co with Benjamin Shaw at all.
Benjamin Shaw was well aware of this, and precisely because he understood, he brought Alice Turner here.
However, seeing her disappointed expression in this situation, he felt inexplicably irritable inside.
Benjamin Shaw picked up his glass and tipped his head back, finishing the drink in one go.
"Second brother! Our eldest and third brother have already finished theirs. The three of us should hurry and drink too." Seeing Easton Hols and Benjamin Shaw drink their glasses one after the other, Thomas Fisher didn’t dare slack off and reminded the Taylor siblings before he started drinking his own glass.
"Alright! We finished the celebratory drink, now let’s get down to real competition and see what we’re made of."
After downing the glass, an animated Thomas Fisher loudly proposed.
"Alright! Tonight, we’re not going ho until we’re drunk."
Thomas Fisher’s proposal received an enthusiastic response from the others, especially from Evelyn Taylor, whose response was the most tily, enthusiastic, and determined.
Seeing his sister gearing up for a drinking spree, Ryan Taylor felt quite a headache, but before he could speak up to stop her, he saw his sister already starting to pour wine into her glass.
Why can’t she be more considerate!
"Evelyn Taylor! You’re a girl; none of this ’not going ho until drunk’ nonsense. Drink less, will you?" Watching Evelyn Taylor raise her glass to drink, Ryan Taylor couldn’t help but speak up to stop her.
Already irritated by the unexpected news of Lily Turner’s pregnancy and Easton Hols avoiding her in front of so many people, Evelyn Taylor was in an especially bad mood. Ryan Taylor’s words were nothing but wind to her ears, brushing past without effect.
"Thomas! Long ti no see, let’s have a drink."
Pretending not to hear Ryan Taylor, Evelyn Taylor raised her glass to toast with Thomas Fisher. She had observed that only Thomas Fisher would cooperate with her to drink.
Sure enough, Thomas Fisher cooperated very well, pouring a glass and toasting with Evelyn Taylor.
Seeing this situation, Ryan Taylor sighed helplessly, but he didn’t say anything further because he understood Evelyn Taylor.
If he forcibly stopped her, she would cause a scene with him.
With so many people around, especially since Alice Turner was here, he’d better hold back. Making a scene would be very unsightly.
With Ryan Taylor’s indulgence, Evelyn Taylor instantly let go of her ntal burden and began drinking even more recklessly, competing in a drinking match with four grown n.
