Chapter 833 Yeager suspected Bernard was teaming up with Cedric, but he wasnât quite sure Without time to ponder, he quickly grabbed a bottle of wine and made his way to Bernard He poured some red wine into Bernardâs glass, then poured himself a glass.
âMr Laurence, letâs have a drinkâ
Just now, he had offered Cedric a full glass of wine. Breaking his own rule once, he had to keep it up. So, the glass he offered to Bernard was also filled to the brim.
Yeager drained his glass in one go, while Bernard only took a sip. It seemed like a gesture of respect for Yeager, yet also a bit awkward Yeager was good at reading the room, so he didnât say anything He just glanced at the wine glass, then smiled friendly at Bernard âMr. Laurence, take your time.
Yeager wanted to leave after finishing his drink, but how could Bernard let him go so easily?
âAidyn also wants to drink with you, hope you donât mind?â
Aidyn, who was engrossed in his food, immediately put down his fork and knife and picked up his wine glass when he heard Mr. Laurence called his name. He stood up and approached Yeager âCome on, Dr Yeager, itâs a great day. Letâs get a little tipsy Aidyn had a strong build. When he put his arm around Yeagerâs shoulder, there was nothing Yeager could do but to be dragged to the corner to drink.
Eleanor glanced at Yeager, who was being forced to drink by Aidyn, and wanted to say something but found her hand being held by Bernard âDonât worry, Aidyn knows his limitsâ
âI knowâ
Eleanorâs gaze fell on Hailey who kept her head down âIâm womed that Hailey would feel upset since Yeager is her boyfriend.â
Bernardâs intention was to gauge Haileyâs level of concern for Yeager If, even in such circumstances, Hailey still showed sympathy for Yeager, then Cedric had no chance at all.
Unaware of Bernardâs motives, Eleanor stood up and approached Hailey, offering comfort âHailey donât worry, Aldyn wonât let Yeager drink too much.â
âUm. Hailey responded, feeling unsure and at a loss for words Caught in an awkward situation, Hailey found herself torn. If she knew that Bernard was aiding Cedric, stopping Aidyn from pressuring Yeager to drink would mean opposing her good friendâs husband. Yet, if she allowed it to happen, she would feel guilty for betraying Yeagerâs pleading eyes.
Hailey felt trapped in a dilemma.
From Bernardâs perspective, Haileyâs internal conflict suggested that Yeager wasnât as significant in her heart, leaving an opening for Cedric Recognizing this, Bernard lifted his gaze and subtly signaled Aidyn with a wave of his hand.
âTake it easyâ
Only then did Aidyn pat Yeagerâs back with a laugh âDr. Yeager, you can hold your liquor pretty well Next time weâll have another good drink, but thatâs enough for todayâ
âAlrightâ
After being forced to drink several glasses of red wine, Yeager seemed a bit tipsy Aidyn chuckled inwardly. Yeager canât hold his liquor yet dared to provoke Cedric in front of Mr. Laurence He didnât know where Yeager got his guts After putting down the wine bottle, Aidyn turned and went back to his seat, picked up his fork and knife, and continued eating He hoped to finish eating quickly and then go to sleep Nina, sitting opposite Aidyn, gave Aidyn a thumbs up.
âYouâre really somethingâ

âHuh? What makes me something?â
Aidyn asked Nina curiously while eating Nina turned her thumb toward Yeager âYou managed to get Haileyâs fiancé drunk, thatâs something!â
Upon hearing this, Aidyn stopped cutting his steak and looked at Nina âDonât you feel sorry for Haleyâs fiancé?â
âWhy should I feel sorry for him?â
Nina felt she still preferred Will âI thought youâd lose your mind at the sight of a handsome man âHumph, Iâm not like thatâ
Well, this kid knows her own mind âAlright, stop talking to me, I need to eat!â
âYouâre such a foodie_â
Nina pouted, lifting her eyes to Hailey who was pouring sobering tea for Yeager âI still think Cedric and Hailey are a better match.â
