Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason) novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269 It’s Expensive

An old man and a young girl? It’s funny.

Ainsley must be crazy. I didn’t expect her to dance with a beggar.

Irene answered, Lower your voice. Those who can come to the party are not ordinary people. Don’t

talk nonsense.

Manuel continued, Look at his tattered clothes. He doesn’t look like a wealthy person to me.

Under the spotlight, Manuel and Irene were dancing. Irene gently placed her hand on Manuel’s shoulder and looked at Manuel’s handsome face. But Manuel looked slightly absentminded

because Manuel wasn’t looking at Irene

Not far

away, Ainsley was dancing with an old man. Although the man had grey hair, he still had at tall and straight posture. Irene could imagine how handsome the old man was when he was young.

Suddenly, Irene felt something was wrong.

She turned to look at Manuel immediately. There was a faint smile on Manuel’s face. She thought

that the old man couldn’t be a beggar.

Who was the old man?

The melodious waltz music came from the orchestral instruments. It was the first time that Ainsley. saw that old man so serious. The old man kept looking down at her as if he wanted to look at another

soul through Ainsley’s body.

At that moment, the old man didn’t seem to be ridiculing the wine, and he didn’t look childish as

when he was talking to Lainey. Through the gap in time, Ainsley seemed to see the old man’s

temperament when he was young.

When I was young, I attended a ball. At that time, I was too young. I had never seen such a scene. I felt inferior and timid and didn’t dare to speak. She appeared in front of me and pulled me to dance. I always remember that it was the first time I saw such a bright smile,the old man said.

You fell in love with her?Ainsley asked appropriately.

No, I didn’t know how to dance at that time. I kept stepping on her feet. Everyone in the venue was laughing at me. I just wanted to invite her to dance again when I learned how to dance.

Then did you succeed?

The old man continued, No, she couldn’t dance anymore.

Ainsley didn’t speak again. She didn’t know what to ask. She was afraid that she would ask the

wrong question.

Get Boys

Little girl, you are very similar to her when she was young. Even the words you said when you were winetasting are very similar to hers.The old man’s eyes softened even more.

Maybe I can become good friends with her.

Maybe not now. She’s gone.

After the music ended, the old man’s originally straight back instantly bent down. Ainsley even

suspected that the old man tried hard to straighten his back just now.

And the old man looked totally different when he went back to his seat. Little girl, don’t think

about running away. Come, tell me which wine you like here the most.

Lainey looked at the bottle of wine in the old man’s arms and licked her lips. This one in your

arms.

Don’t even think about it. Do you know how much this bottle of wine costs?The old man

immediately protected the bottle of wine in his arms.

I don’t care. You were the one who asked me.Lainey quickly grabbed the bottom of the bottle.

The two of them grabbed a bottle of wine. The old man had to protect the wine from spilling out.

I’m old. You can’t do that to me.

That doesn’t sound like an excuse to me,Lainey said with a flushed face.

Ainsley stopped Lainey immediately. Come on, stop. This bottle of wine is expensive. One sip may be worth more than thousands of dollars. I just saw that he has already let you take a few sips.

Lainey put down the bottle, and then he looked at the old man in plain clothes and the ordinary

bottle in shock.

What? It can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Lainey shouldn’t be blamed for her ignorance. Although the Salter family was rich, Jaydan would not spend more than 160 thousand dollars to buy a bottle of wine. Naturally, Lainey couldn’t buy a bottle of wine that was so expensive.

Ainsley looked at the entire hall. Wine glasses were piled high with all kinds of wine bottles in the

corners. There were many varieties and unique packaging. There was no lack of expensive wine, but no one would take out a bottle of wine that was worth more than 160 thousand dollars for people

to taste.

You don’t know that, do you? What can be bought in the market is not too expensive and valuable. The real topquality wine has long been put into the wine cellar for collection. Some time ago, Sotheby’s sold a bottle of La RomaneeConti worth more than 480 thousand dollars. I had been looking forward to it for a long time, but it was too late for me to know the news,the old man said with regret. The pained expression was not fake.
