Chapter 517 Sending Wine to Humiliate Wynter
Judging by Yvette’s demeanor, Charlie believed he might have been overthinking things.
With Yvette nestled in his arms, Charlie contemplated finding a moment to speak with Wynter after the
gathering.
He hadn’t forgotten the advice his father gave him back in Southdale. If he could win over Wynter, perhaps they could use that as leverage to get in good with the Secretary–General, Lucas Keller.
Moreover, he had to admit that Wynter was still as beautiful as he remembered.
He doubted that Wynter had already moved on from him. Otherwise, why would she choose to be with a gigolo instead of pursuing a serious relationship?
With those thoughts in mind, Charlie began to devise a plan. “Don’t worry, Yvette. I’ll send over a bottle of wine to Wynter as a gesture of goodwill. That’ll preserve your sister’s dignity.”
Charlie’s plan was simple. By sending wine to Wynter, he could highlight her new boyfriend’s stinginess and subtly let her know of his presence at the restaurant.
Yvette was taken aback. “You want to send her wine?”
“If you’re against it, just forget it. It’s entirely up to you,” Charlie replied, eager to assert himself without revealing his true intentions.
However, Yvette was too focused on her own scheme to worry about Charlie’s motives. Sending wine seemed like the perfect way to embarrass Wynter.
“No, you’re right. We should send wine to Wynter to remind her of the treatment she deserves,” Yvette
said, feigning concern for Wynter’s well–being, Secretly, she was relishing the chance to chowcase her
fiancé’s generosity.
Aware of the potential embarrassment, Charlie’s companions eagerly anticipated Wynter’s reaction when she received the bottle of wine.
Yvette couldn’t contain her joy any longer and quickly made the request, instructing the waiter, “If they decline, just say it’s from her future brother–in–law.”
When Charlie and his companions heard the waiter’s reply, they couldn’t help but chuckle. “This restaurant sure has lots of rules and regulations. We’re just trying to send a bottle of wine, yet they have to follow a whole procedure.”
