Chapter 521 Milk the Other Party Dry
“Show off their wealth?” Wynter glanced at the bottle of red wine, wondering what kind of logic it was to flaunt one’s wealth with wine.
Seeing the disdainful expression on Wynter’s face, Dalton coultin’t hold back anymore and started to laugh as he leaned against her shoulder.
Wynter genuinely didn’t understand what he found so amusing. She held his chin and tilted it up slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.
“Please explain to me how much wealth can someone flaunt with a bottle of wine,” she said.
At this moment, Lester wished he could become invincible.
Although Wynter was the Quinnell family’s daughter, Lester thought no one would actually treat Dalton this way.
In fact, it somehow felt like Dalton was the disaster–causing mistress who was kept in the
harem.
Lester shook his head, not wanting to get lost in his thoughts.
As they were all men, Dalton understood what the other party’s intentions were. It was precisely because he understood that he had just shown his emotions in front of others.
“The meaning behind them sending wine is simply, ‘Since you can’t even afford to open a bottle of wine, your brother–in–law has sent it to you.“” Dalton’s voice still carried a hint of amusement, but his eyes were cold.
Wynter raised an eyebrow at those words. “That’s it?”
“That’s it.” Dalton chuckled softly, playing with Wynter’s hair as he sat there in a casual manner. “You’re still young. It’s normal that you don’t understand social nuances.”
After saying that, he added, “And you don’t need to understand
- it. It’s just a pointless game.
That “brother–in–law” probably wanted to remind a certain someone of his presence.
How annoying.
Dalton exerted considerable effort to suppress the surging hostility within him.
He remembered what Margaret said about someone who always liked to run behind others since childhood while shouting out the name Charlie.
Wynter didn’t know why he suddenly became moody. She simply followed the line of thought he provided and understood what was going on.
Lester’s only thought at the moment was that those students must be out of their minds.
“Face?” Dalton didn’t mind her description. He only lazily glanced over. “Now that you have someone who can be the face of a shop accompanying you, you should fix your taste.”
