EuropeNovelChapter 640:
Cedric turned his gaze away, speaking without emotion.
“No.
You can leave now. Close the door behind you.”
Nina curled her red lips into a smile.
“Are you upset? This wine is really good. Want to give it a try? It has an amazing taste.” She raised the bottle of
wine and, without waiting for his response, walked into the room with it.
Nina uncorked the bottle of wine with practiced ease, a skill that spoke of experience. Before Cedric could even
furrow his brows, she had already filled their glasses and set them neatly in front of him and Ryan. Nina's alcohol
tolerance had been honed deliberately, and she could outdrink almost anyone—a fact that wasn’t far from the
truth.
Ryan and Cedric, for their part, were no strangers to holding their liquor. As the alcohol worked its magic, Ryan's
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttongue loosened. With a mischievous grin, he turned to Nina as she took her seat.
“So, are you into Cedric?”
Nina ducked her head, a bashful smile curling on her lips as a blush bloomed across her cheeks.
“Oh, don't say that! If Daniela hears, she’ll be upset. Besides, someone like Cedric is way out of my league. He's
like a star shining high in the heavens, and I'm just a tiny speck of dust on the earth—completely unworthy.”
While speaking, Nina's eyes flickered up, her gaze resting on Cedric’s lips. The sight sent a soft flutter through
her chest.
Cedric remained largely quiet, his silence only fueling the quiet adoration blooming in Nina's heart. Determined
to hold his attention, she worked tirelessly to find topics of conversation, all while skillfully refilling their glasses
without drawing notice.
Cedric, brooding and moody, continued to drink with little hesitation. Ryan matched him drink for drink, and
despite Nina having made three trips downstairs to fetch more wine, neither man seemed remotely affected.

“We're out of wine?” Ryan asked, casting a glance at the collection of empty bottles littering the table.
“Yes, that's it,” Nina said, spreading her hands in mock defeat. She had hoped Ryan would take the hint and
leave, but instead, Cedric rose to his feet and said, “If we're out, you two should go.”
At Cedric’s words, Nina quickly jumped in.
“Oh, wait! | just remembered—I've got a bottle of excellent vintage at home.
You two stay put, and I'll bring it over.”
With that, Nina pulled out her phone and dialed Elyse.
“What? Cedric actually drank your wine?”
Nina's voice brimmed with excitement.
“Yes! They're upstairs right now, waiting for it. Mom, you still have those century-old bottles, right? Please send
someone to bring them over. After tonight, Cedric will be mine.”
Elyse sounded doubtful.
“Are you sure Cedric actually asked for your wine, or is this just your idea?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIrritated, Nina shot back, “Mom, what's that supposed to mean? You've always thought Natalie is better than me.
Do you really think Cedric should just sit around and wait for her to cback instead of noticing me?”
Elyse stiffened, realizing Nina had read her thoughts perfectly.
