Chapter 185: Counterfeit Wine

Flagging down a passing waiter, he obtained a couple of glasses, filled them, and, with a grin, offered them to Bianca and Dave.

“Ashley wanted her sister and brother-in-law here to experience the high life. It’s only right that I play the gracious host for her sake.” Joshua lifted his glass with a smug smile. “See this wine? It’s a rare Romanée-Conti vintage, worth a fortune per bottle. Bet you’ve never imagined sipping on something this exquisite. But hey, I’m feeling generous. Consider it my treat.”

Ashley, nestled in Joshua’s embrace, looked on with pride. This time, Bianca must surely feel envy and jealousy. The Reed family was immensely wealthy, and Joshua showered Ashley with affection. Soon, she would be Mrs. Reed, a position far more prestigious than Bianca’s.

In her thoughts, Ashley sneered, convinced that Bianca couldn’t compare to her.

With each passing moment, Ashley’s self-confidence swelled. How fortunate she was to have caught Joshua’s attention.
