Thanks to God he ate pork. He found the bottle of champagne I had put in the fridge. Moët Chandon Grand Vintage 2000 Brut. It was closed, on the coffee table, with two glasses. "Are you sure you want to drink this today?" he asked. “It's pretty fancy. I have a Beaujolais at home. “You deserve something fancy. My God, Nav, it's your first exhibition. This is too much important. He flashed a quick smile.

I closed my eyes, enjoying what he was doing to me. “Can I get you a drink?” A woman asked, making my eyes pop open. Callan stopped nibbling my ear and looked at the young lady who had interrupted us. “We will have a bottle of Dom Pérignon please.” I looked at Callan shocked. I never really drank champagne because it was so expensive and Marcus never thought I was worth the money, but even I knew that was an expensive bottle. “Of course, have you looked at the menu yet?” “No, not yet.”

"Yes, he said Miss Anderson sent him to help us because she was worried." "Do you still have at least one of the bottles of that champagne?" She asked. "He took the bottles after the party." She sighed. It was a dead end again. "But I know the brand. I wanted to taste it before serving it so I took a bottle and was about to drink it when he interrupted me." The man said. "What brand?" She asked. "Memoir. It has a gold label with a picture of Germany in the background." The caterer said. Her heart pounded. That was it! Everything fits together. That champagne probably had a mixture of the memory serum. But why would they mix it with it? What was their plan?

Ribbs now. Because of her complicated feelings, that she is suffering now Jamie didn’t notice that her shot from the wine that the bartender gave it to her is deeper than normal, one after another until she drowned her sorrows from it as if it’s the only solution she has at the moment… And now she is drunk… That even her background is already blurred in her vision. But still, she is trying to compose herself. She rose from her seat, went near Diane, and bid her goodbye. “I’ll go first… Lucho is waiting!” Jamie uttered.

Luke takes his seat; JJ opens the door, and our waiter enters with a bottle of champagne and a carafe of water. “Good Evening, Mr Craven.” Luke nods, “Good Evening, Sean.” “From your private stock, Sir.” The waiter, Sean, removes the cork with a flourish and pours the Champagne into the two flutes. Sean turns and sets the champagne bottle in an elegant champagne bucket pedestal and adds the water carafe to our table. I can’t help but check the label of the Champagne and almost choke Dom Perignon, a P3. We don’t even stock this at the bar. We have a couple of bottles of Dom but not P3; those bottles are more than $2000 each, which is from his private stock?!

Charming. I take it from him, bringing it to my own lips and taking a little sip. When I go to hand it back, though, Chase gives me a look of disapproval, so I raise it to my lips again, trying to take a bigger swig this time. Champagne isn’t meant for chugging. The bubbles tickle my throat as it goes down, nearly making me choke. My eyes water as I pull the bottle from my mouth and hand it back to Chase, but he’s completely unphased, immediately taking another long swig of the champagne. He must be impervious to the effects of the carbonation.

Under the antique European chandeliers, the champagne flutes piled high at the banquet were filled with expensive champagne. Britney was feeling thirsty too. She walked up and picked up a glass of champagne, its light golden hue shining brightly. Just as she was about to take a sip, a hand snatched it away and replaced it with a glass of clear yellow liquid. "You shouldn't be drinking now." Manuel took a sip from the champagne glass he had taken from her and cast a quick glance at her abdomen, signaling that it wouldn’t be good for the baby.

I paused, feeling Mike almost humming with excitement beside me. "What is this?" I asked, looking at Mike, his face paling as he stammered over his words. "Champagne." He uttered, his eyes flashing behind me to Anthony. I eyed his glass, which looked like water and frowned. "I don't drink champagne. Would you mind if we swap?" I asked with a winning smirk as I held my hand out for his glass. "I know you like this stuff... but it always tastes like cat's piss if you ask me." I revealed, taking the glass out of his hand without waiting for a reply.

So, Henry knew very well how much he needed to say to piqued his curiosity. Sure enough, Calvin said, “I will be there in Twenty minutes.” He grinned, “Then I am going to open the bottle of Champagne you have saved. Don’t feel bad.” This Champagne is worth of tens of thousand dollars. It’s not that Calvin can’t afford to open it. But good wines are rare so there must be a price for it. Henry knew that he couldn’t get that with money, so he wanted to use this opportunity to drink this wine.” Calvin didn’t dare much, “Still persistent on it?”

Over the main course—an exquisitely cooked filet mignon paired with all my favorite sides—I find myself unwittingly opening up more about past events I’ve catered, high profile clients I’ve served, and most importantly, the Alpha gathering. “Champagne often causes headaches,” I explain through a bite of tender steak. “So to keep my clients happy and feeling good, I always keep an array of various ginger ales stocked behind my bar.” Damon listens intently, his focus solely on me in a way that would be flattering if it didn't feel slightly excessive. It almost feels… intimate, the way his intense eyes barely stray away from my face.
