Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 745

Chapter 745 Extremely Expensive Wine

The wine was made out of the first batch of wild grapes that was grown in Cave Vineyard ten years ago. The first batch of wild grapes was a smaller batch that had produced less wine than the other batches, so there were only a total of 100 bottles of wine made. These were practically sold out the moment it was put on sale. Due to the limited availability of wine, the price of one bottle was extremely high. The first 50 bottles cost almost 5 million for one, while the remaining 50 bottles were a little cheaper—about 3 to 4 million each.

Although the wine was pricey, there were also a lot of wealthy individuals who could afford it. Its sales weren’t affected despite it being highly priced. Toby had first phoned Cave Vineyard to order ten bottles of the wine, but he had finished it a long time ago. Since this specific batch of wine was sold out right after it was released, and since the factory hadn’t released much information about this wine to the public, most people weren’t aware of the fact that the factory had ever produced this batch of wine.

Yet, Sonia had one of these exorbitantly-priced wine bottles with her. Toby wasn’t looking down on Sonia—he simply knew that it was impossible for someone with her spending power to purchase this type of wine. That explained why he was so shocked to see her showing up with that wine bottle. Sonia had no idea what the man was thinking about, and she sat down while responding to his words. “It’s not too bad. Apparently, this costs more than a million. My dad left it behind. He said that a friend had given it to him and that he had left it here because he couldn’t bear to drink it. However, I’m not sure if it was really a friend who gave it to him. He’s a huge fan of red wine, and he usually collects expensive wine, so it’s possible that he was the one who bought it. Furthermore, I’m not sure how much this actually costs. I tried looking for this brand online, but I couldn’t find any information about it. I would’ve thought my father had been conned if he wasn’t someone who was relatively knowledgeable about wine. I might have thought that he paid all that money for an unknown wine brand.” Sonia let out a smile at the thought of her father. Her eyes were filled with longing for the past.

Eventually, Toby forced the cork out of the bottle and held a wine glass up to pour some of the red liquid into it. He passed the glass to Sonia. “I’m not sure if your father was the one who bought this wine, but I can tell you that he didn’t lie about the price.”

Sonia’s hand trembled a little upon hearing the man’s words. “Are you serious? Is it that expensive?”

“Of course.” Toby poured a glass for himself before he sat down and swirled the wine glass in his hand. He took a sniff before he continued speaking. “There are only a total of 100 of these bottles in the world. The first 50 bottles cost 5 million, while the remaining 50 bottles cost about 3 to 4 million. Yours is probably…”

Toby reached over and spun the wine bottle around to check the number on the back of the bottle. He raised an eyebrow. “Your bottle says number 50. It’s the 50th one.”

“Does that mean that this was worth 5 milion?” Sonia stared at the wine bottle before looking at the glass in her hand. She gulped after speaking in a shaky voice. Although her father had once boasted about owning a bottle of wine that was worth millions, she had never truly believed his words and had always assumed he was just exaggerating. Her father did have that bad habit, after all. However, she was shocked to hear that it was the actual price of the wine.

Sonia didn’t consider the possibility of Toby lying to her since he had no reason to lie about such a thing. Toby chuckled when he saw the dumbfounded expression on Sonia’s face. “Yes. This costs 5,000,000.”

5,000,000… 5,000,000! Sonia hastily placed her glass down on the table. “I’m not drinking this anymore. This is so pricey; it probably costs at least 10,000 for every sip. It’s such a shame to finish it. I don’t even feel like I’m drinking alcohol—it feels like I’m swallowing money, and it makes me feel guilty. I should pour this back and replace the cork so that it can become some inheritance that I pass on to my nephews and nieces. Stop drinking,” she ordered. Right after that, she reached her hand over to snatch the glass from Toby.

Although Sonia was also from a rich family, she had never tasted wine that cost more than 3 million. Even the wine that cost 3 million sounded too expensive to Sonia, let alone trying one that cost 5 million. Sonia felt like she couldn’t take another sip of the liquid after hearing its price. Toby hadn’t expected her to react in such a manner upon hearing the price. She attempted to pour the wine back into the bottle, and she even tried to snatch the wine away from him.

How could he allow her to do that? With Sonia’s hand still reaching toward Toby’s glass, he abruptly threw his head backward to pour the whole glass of wine down his throat. Sonia widened her eyes when she saw his actions. “Why did you drink it, Toby?”

“Isn’t this wine meant for drinking?” Toby put down his wine glass before staring at her with an innocent look on his face. Sonia felt as if someone had stabbed her chest when she saw his empty glass. Her face was twisted into a frown as she felt a physical ache in her chest. “This isn’t just any regular wine,” she muttered while looking like she was about to burst into tears.
