Bonnie took the glass of wine from the dining table and sniffed it gently. The rich aroma of the wine stirred up her desire to drink.
'That reminds me, it has been a long time since I drank wine.'
Ivor saw the craving on her face and couldn't help but find it adorable. He grinned, and his voice was very gentle when he spoke, "Go ahead and drink it if that's what you want."
"Okay. I'll take a sip." Bonnie downed her wine. She enjoyed the scent so much that she closed her eyes. "This wine is excellent. Its flavor is rich, but it's not overpowering."
Then, Bonnie looked at Sigmund at said with a smile, "It's not every day I taste a wine this good. Thank you, Grandpa."
Sigmund chuckled heartily and topped up Bonnie's glass. "I've stored this wine for a long time. Of course, it tastes excellent. Feel free to have more if you love it, Bonnie."
"Okay." Bonnie reached out and clinked Sigmund's wine glass with hers. "Here, Grandpa. Cheers."
She looked at Ivor out of the corner of her eyes as she spoke. "Are you drinking?"
Ivor raised his wine glass and clinked it with Bonnie's. Then, he raised his eyebrow and responded, "How could I miss out on such an occasion?"
"What a smart mouth." Bonnie shook her head. Her voice was laden with playfulness.
Ivor raised his eyebrow and swirled the wine glass. "Hmm… I'll take that as a compliment."
Bonnie rolled her eyes at him. "Not only are you smart-mouthed, but you also know how to take advantage of my words."
