Chapter 83
This bottle of liquor was worth 3.5 million dollars, and its extravagant price was precisely why Bernard had chosen to collect it. He had added this brand of liquor into his collection because it was the most
expensive liquor.
Despite appearing tactless and easygoing, Bernard had a love for drinking. The higher the alcohol- content, the more he liked it. Hence, most of the drinks in the wine storage were from his personal
collection.
Taking the tequila in a platinum bottle, Aspen opened the bottle and took a whiff. “Do you mean ‘The Ideal Nursing Home“? How many days will Gisele stay in the program?” he asked warmly.
While he was speaking, the door swung open, and both of them turned their heads simultaneously. When they saw Dorian dressed in gym attire, they paused in surprise.
Bernard was the first to snap back to his senses, springing to his feet and covering his mouth in shock. You actually showed up! This is unexpected! You refused to come the last time I asked you out for a drink. What made you give up the
company of your lady today?”
It seemed like Dorian had just finished exercising. His usually impeccable hair now looked messy, but in a natural way. The high and mighty company owner whom everyone looked up to during the day had turned into the good–looking young man next door.
Dorian took a glance at Aspen on the couch and plopped into a couch in another corner with his hands in his pockets.
“Here, give me the tequila, Aspy. The last time we gathered to have a drink so casually was three years ago. This time, let’s agree not to get riled up over a woman,” Bernard said, disregarding everything else as he tried to liven up the atmosphere.
Just before this, Aspen was warm and had a smile on his face, but he suddenly turned cold. The chilly air around him seemed to be competing against the deadly air exuding from Dorian, and neither wanted to
yield.
Bernard poured out the drinks. When he saw that nobody made a move, a frown appeared on his face. Hey, both of you! Are you guys still at it? Is it worth it to give up on your friendship over a woman?”
“Yeah, a woman was controlling the usually decisive Mr. Jefferson.” Taking the glass from Bernard’s hand, Aspen finished the strong liquor in one shot.
Pulling a long face, Dorian took a glass as well and finished the drink without even batting an eyelid.
After a shot, the fury within them seemed to be ignited. Seeing them in this state, Bernard wanted to protect his drink out of reflex. It was a waste of good liquor to have these two dummies drink it without enjoying it.
“Why didn’t you think about the dumb things you’ve done before speaking about others?” Rising to his feet, Dorian snatched the bottle of tequila in Bernard’s hand and poured a glass.

Back then, Someone couldn’t get the person he loved, so he took it out on himself in a bad way but tegretted it halfway and came back again. Do you remember who that was?” Dorlan mocked,
Aspen was speechless. This incident happened three years ago. At that time, upon learning that Sierra wasnt the one Dorian was marrying, Aspen had looked for Sierra to confess his feelings for her, hoping that she would consider him.
However, she turned him down. To add salt to the injury, Dorian also insulted him badly. After that, he went abroad and would only return during the festivities.
While pointing out each other’s flaws, Dorian and Aspen continued million dollar liquor to finish.
They spoke about matters that took place since they were children.
Yes, they were now speaking about Gisele,

the topic involved Gisele.
Aspen was feeling the alcohol in his system. With one hand holding a glass, he held his phone in his other hand. “With just one call, I can make Gisele come over to me right away. Dorian, do you think that
everyone has to revolve around you?”
“Call her.” In one gulp, Dorian finished the liquor and fixed his eyes on Aspen. Not everyone would revolve around him, but Gisele was something else. Nervousness gnawed at him, and he felt uneasy.

At the same time, Aspen already made the call. After Gisele picked up, he put the call on loudspeaker mode, and her soft voice sounded, “Aspen? What’s up with you at this hour?” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
