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 absent–minded
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.

“Little girl, you are very similar to her when she was young. Even the words you said when you were
wine–tasting 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 top–quality wine has long been put into the wine cellar for collection. Some time ago,
Sotheby’s sold a bottle of La Romanee–Conti 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.

“Mr. Glover, this bottle of wine is in my house. Last time, my grandpa and Manuel drank half a bottle
together. There was still half a bottle of it in the wine cellar. It was a top–notch vintage wine. How about
I invite you to drink the rest on behalf of my grandpa?” Irene’s clear and bright smile made people want
to get close to her.
Ainsley raised her head slightly. Irene stood in front of the old man, and Manuel followed behind.
Irene.
Mr. Glover? She seemed to have heard of this old man.
Hudson slowly turned around while firmly holding the bottle of precious wine in his hand. “Irene, I won’t
drink the remaining wine. I have plenty of fresh wine to drink.”
A lot of people would think that they had said something wrong after they heard Hudson’s words, but
Irene still had a faint smile on her face. She said generously, “Mr. Glover. My grandpa has collected
many kinds of wine for a long time, and some of them are ten times better than La Romance–Conti. I
said this because I heard you mention La Romanee–Conti, and I specifically mentioned it to lure you
over so that you can drink the wine my grandpa collects.”
Hudson’s eyes opened widely, and he suddenly smiled, “I think you’re a good girl. But if Brady knew it,
he would probably be very angry.”
“Mr. Glover, if my grandfather knows that you are the one who is coming, he will be very happy,” Irene
said properly.
“Even better than La Romanee–Conti? What is that?” Hudson was curious.
“Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon, the King of Wine. It is the most mysterious wine in California.
My grandpa got a few bottles of wine produced in 1992. And they are the most elementary ones. They
have been collected in the innermost part of the wine cellar. Don’t you want to taste it?” Irene looked
calm. She had absolute confidence.
Due to the fame of Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon, no one could refuse it. No wine collector
would be willing to miss the wine produced in 1992.
Lainey quietly walked to Ainsley’s side and whispered into her ear, “Elementary wine? Seriously?”
Ainsley shook her head. “You don’t know what that means. Back then, the most popular wine
consultant in Napa Valley came to Screaming Eagle. He used a high proportion of Cabernet
Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc to make the first batch of wine. It was the purest batch of wine.
Although it is called the elementary wine, it has the best taste.”
According to Hudson’s obsession with wine, he would accept the invitation.
“Okay. But before that, let’s finish the wine party first. The real good stuff is yet to come,” Hudson
laughed.
