Chapter 57: When He Was Drunk

Ryan ordered a few dishes for them all to share.

Sophia assumed that it might take a while for them to get their food as the restaurant was so busy, but everything came surprisingly quickly.

Once the food had begun to be served, another waiter appeared with a bottle of wine. Sophia had no idea when Ryan had ordered it.

Without asking for Pearson's agreement, Ryan poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile, "I'll drive, Mr. Pearson, so you can drink freely. There is nothing to worry about."

Then, he turned to Sophia, "Do you drink, Miss Green? Would you like some wine?"

Sophia shook her head, "No, thank you!"

Albert Pearson said nothing, but picked up his wine and drank slowly.

Throughout the meal, Ryan kept him topped-up. After several glasses, Pearson's face had grown reddish, and yet Ryan kept pouring.

Sophia had known Albert to be a non-drinker. How could his habits have shifted so quickly in just a few months?
