Chapter 746 Liquid Courage

Sonia’s movements had been bold and exaggerated when she first drank the wine, but Toby burst into laughter when he saw the way she scrunched up her face in response to the taste of the alcohol. “Slow down. You don’t want to choke.”

“I’m not going to choke!” Sonia placed the wine glass down with a loud clang before pushing it closer to him. “Give me another glass of that.”

“Doesn’t your heart ache over the price of the drink now?” Toby raised an eyebrow. She glared at him. “Of course my heart still aches, but I’d rather finish it than let it turn bad. Hurry and pour me another glass,” she urged.

“Okay. I’ll pour you another glass,” he uttered after laughing for a while more. Then, he held the wine bottle up to refill her glass. Sonia let out a sigh as she held the wine glass up and glanced at the sparkling, red liquid inside. “It’s all your fault. Why did you decide to prepare a meal out of nowhere?”

“What?’ Toby was confused. “Did you say it’s my fault?” How can it be my fault? he wondered.

“It’s obviously your fault!” Sonia stomped her foot on the ground. “I wouldn’t have thought of celebrating anything if you hadn’t made me a meal. I wouldn’t have recalled the existence of this red wine if I hadn’t thought of celebrating anything. You wouldn’t have gotten the chance to open this bottle if I hadn’t thought of it. So, whose fault do you think it is?”

Toby was shocked and speechless upon hearing her explanation. This brat is so two-faced! I can’t believe she’s putting all of the blame on me. She’s expecting me to deal with all the consequences on my own! Sure, I made the meal, and I suggested the idea itself, but I wasn’t the one who suggested having a celebration, and I even tried to stop her when she brought it up. She’s the one who insisted on bringing a bottle of wine here. Yet, it sounds like everything’s my fault now. Great. Toby pressed his palm against his forehead while feeling sorry for himself.
