Chapter 50

    Chapter 50 Andrew calmly stated, This isnt just some local wine, nor something any winery could produce.


    His statement only angered Irene, and she barked, Andrew, would it kill you to stop bragging ? If its not local wine, what is it soine mythical elixir ? Actually, yes, thats exactly what it is, Andrew replied, causing the entire Stevens family to freeze before crupting inughter.


    They thought he was making aplete fool of himself with such an outrageous im.


    Even Harvey could not help but smirk, feeling insulted that such a nobody would darepare himself to someone of his status.


    Dous gently patted Andrew on the shoulder and tried tofort him.


    Andy, even if our wine isnt the best, theres no need topete


    Remember : if youre truly exceptional, others will naturally recognize it.


    Andrew nodded.


    Wise words, Mr.


    Stevens Senior III keep them in mind


    Christina shook her head, thinking how pathetic it was that Andrew could not even understand her


    grandfathers subtle hint to stop embarrassing himself.


    Well, well, it looks like the partys started without me ! a new voice called out.


    It was Gerald Stevens, Douss brother.


    He was an antique dealer in Chetvine, the capital city.


    Dous smiled and said, Gerald, perfect timing! Join us for a drink.


    We have plenty of fine wines tonight! Irene chimed in, Uncle Gerald loves! appreciate what Harvey brought


    wine, but only the finest will do.


    Im sure hell Leroy quickly poured some wine and ced it before Gerald, saying, Uncle Gerald, this is a 50-year old wine from Harvey.


    Please try it! Geralds face lit up


    What a treat! Dont mind if I do! He was about to reach for it when he spotted the wine before Dous. His expression changed.


    dramatically as he snatched Andrews wine instead, leaving everyone stunned.


    Irene cried out, Uncle Gerald, dont ! Thats just a cheap drink put it down! Gerald inhaled the wines aroma, ignoring Irenepletely


    Then, he gulped the entire ss down.


    His face showed pure bliss as he eximed.


    I never imagined Id find this divine nectar in Jayrodale! Where did you get this incredible wine? III pay


    750 thousand dors for whatevers left, bottle and all! The entire Stevens family, including Harvey, sat speechless


    1/2- +20 BONUS Chapter 50 Gerald urged them on.


    Well, what are you waiting for? Get me the rest! Do you even know what this is? Its literally liquid gold! The family was dumbfounded


    Desperate to make sense of it, Irene protested, Uncle Gerald, are you drunk? This is garbage, not liquid gold! Gerald scowled and retorted, Such ignorance! Ive lived in Chetvine for years! Do you think you know better than me? I once had the privilege of tasting just half a ss of this at a noble familys home there, and Ive never forgotten it! The family turned to stare at Andrew, who remainedposed and said, This wine lives up to its name as Divine Elixir.


    And yes, it does have connections to Chetvine.


    Gerald nodded approvingly.

    I assume youre the one who brought this wine?
