When Lucy heard that the meal was ready, she immediately extended a warm invitation to Charlie’s family of three to go to the dining room.
At this time, there was a man in his sixties who was busy setting the plates in the dining room. After Lucy’s introduction, it was revealed that this man was her husband, Jalen Marten.
The young man who had invited them to the dining table earlier was Lucy’s son, Kyler Marten.
Jalen was very enthusiastic. After inviting the family of three to sit down at the dining table, he smiled and asked Charlie, “What kind of wine do you like to drink, Charlie? I have red wine and Moutai here.”
Charlie said politely, “I’m sorry, Uncle Jalen. I have to drive, so I won’t drink.”
Jalen was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and said, “It’s okay. Don’t drink if you’re driving.”
After saying that, he looked at his son, Kyler, and said, “Kyler, if you have nothing else to do tonight, why don’t we both have a drink?”
Kyler smiled and nodded. “Let’s drink a little, then.”
Lucy hurriedly admonished, “You two should drink a little less.”
The father and son agreed. After that, Kyler took out a bottle of Moutai, and he could not wait to open it and pour a glass for his father and himself.
It could be seen that the father and son duo were both addicted to alcohol. So, from the moment the bottle of liquor was opened, the two people seemed to be a little uncontrollable when the fragrance of the liquor wafted out.
However, although they both craved liquor, neither one of them picked up the wine glass. Instead, they could not help but look at Lucy.
At this time, Lucy smiled and said to Elaine, “Elaine, let’s not drink and start eating!”
Elaine did not like to drink, so she readily agreed to it.
