The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 99

“Annoying?” Jennifer just shrugged and poured Pandora a drink, then topped off her own glass.

“Pandora, my dad said some things he shouldn’t have. I’m really sorry about that,” she said. “He’s having a glass as punishment, but I’ll take three to make up for it.”

Without hesitating, Jennifer tipped back her glass and drank. Then she did it again. And again.

Daniel glared at her, practically fuming. “Hey! You’re just trying to finish off all the good stuff I made!”

Jennifer wiped her mouth and grinned. “That’s exactly what I’m doing. Who knows if I’ll ever get to drink something this good again?” What she didn’t say out loud was that she might never get to taste her dad’s homemade liquor again.

Her words hung in the air. The whole table fell silent.

Jennifer realized she’d said too much and scrambled to fix it.

Pandora jumped in, her voice light. “If Jennifer likes it, let her drink. Once she finishes it, you can always make more for her. Or are you planning to stay lazy in that wheelchair forever?”

That hit home. Jennifer jumped in, teasing, “Yeah, Dad, your health hasn’t been great this year, but you’re not planning to be stuck in that chair again next year, are you? Or did you hear those electric wheelchairs can drive down the street and are even better than a car?”

Suddenly, Daniel broke down in tears. “Pandora, I can’t stand anymore. I won’t be around much longer.”

Pandora put her chopsticks down, sounding annoyed. “Daniel, what are you going on about in front of your daughters? Have a little dignity. Look at them, you’re making them so upset.”
