holding two bottles of wine.

“Hey Bardot! Your old pal is here to see you! Just look at what I’ve brought you, it’ s the

thirty-year-old Dalva tawny port!”

Upon hearing the old man’s voice, Aidan immediately rushed up to him while donning a

bright smile. “Lawrence, didn’t you say that the Archaeological Society will be having a

meeting today? Why did you rush over here then?”

This old man was Christopher Lawrence, he used to teach History back in the same

he had a different position as an official in the archaeology industry. Naturally, Aidan

was overjoyed to see him.

stomped by Claire. Although he could only see parts of the painting, he was able to

Christopher was shocked all of a sudden. After placing the wine on the ground, he
