Chapter 959 I Don't Know How to Weigh It
Grace's casual remark struck a chord with Evelyn, and she couldn't help but find it amusing. "Do I really show it that clearly?" she wondered aloud.
Taking the drinks menu from the waiter, Grace nodded in agreement. "It's not that you're showing it explicitly, but the only one who can affect your mood that way is your husband," she remarked.
Evelyn was speechless. It seemed that... it was true.
"What would you like to drink? Beer, red wine, or cocktails?"
"Whiskey," replied Evelyn, nearly startling Grace with her answer.
"What?" Grace rubbed her ear, thinking she had misheard. "Are you planning to get drunk?"
"I'm in a bad mood. Would you like to have a drink with me?"
Grace was not one to back down, so she boldly ordered a bottle of whiskey. "All right then, since we rarely have a chance to get drunk, I'll gladly risk it all and accompany you."
The drinks arrived quickly, accompanied by a fruit platter. Evelyn put a slice of lemon in her glass and poured a bottom of whiskey. She raised her glass and toasted with Grace, saying, "Thank you for accompanying me."
Grace replied with a smile, "You're welcome."
The spicy liquid slid down Evelyn's throat. She didn't think it was a good thing when she was in a good mood, but when she was in a bad mood, she would drink a glass of it to relieve her anxiety.
