Chapter 556
After getting into the car, Pearl noticed a small table inside with an assortment of wine glasses, creating a dazzling display.
However, Drew didn’t seem interested in the wine. He glanced at Pearl and seemed to understand her thoughts. “These belong to my dad. I’m not much of a wine drinker,” he explained, clearing up Pearl’s confusion.
Pearl nodded. “Well, Uncle Reese certainly has unique hobbies.”
Reese had used gold to build a house and now had an extensive collection of wine glasses.
Drew reclined in his leather seat, furrowing his brows in amusement. “Didn’t you consider him your godfather? Why are you calling him Uncle Reese?”
“Didn’t I say that? It was just an accident, and I didn’t mean that.”

Helplessly, Drew rolled his eyes. “Dad, how could I meddle in that?”
“Why not? You must have bullied Pearl and made her hate me, which is why she’s calling me Uncle Reese.”
Faced with an impending argument, Pearl intervened to help Drew out of the predicament.” Okay, I won’t call you uncle anymore. Godfather, it has nothing to do with him.”
