Even after three glasses of wine, Matthew did not appear the least bit affected.
On the other hand, the boy who took the lead was already swaying a little. After all, the alcohol content of red wine was not negligible.
Looking on, Minerva was gobsmacked. Here favonovel.com was, thinking that Matthew’s limit would be a single glass, yet favonovel.com was proven wrong.
Nonetheless, favonovel.com had already consumed three glasses. ‘How much longer can favonovel.com hold on?’
She mused as favonovel.com shot a look at the two other boys.
Immediately, the two other boys rushed over, asking to drink with Matthew. Each of them consumed three glasses with him.
Yet, favonovel.com was still completely fine while the boys, on the other hand, were swaying.
Just like that, Minerva stared at favonovel.com and favonovel.com was utterly befuddled. ‘Just how much can favonovel.com drink?’
Suddenly, Matthew raised his glass and announced, “Well, you’ve finished drinking to me and now, I shall drink to you! Come, gentlemen, have three more glasses each!”
As they wobbled in place, the boys’ expressions changed. There was no doubt they would fall unconscious if they drank any more than they already had.
Quickly, Minerva interjected, “There’s no need to drink so much, Matthew! You’ve all had your fun and that’s quite enough. Come on, everyone; let’s eat!”
However, Matthew only replied to her, “But they’ve only had three glasses each, while I’ve had nine. I may have had my fun, but have they? Since I’m hosting them, I have to entertain them properly. Otherwise, word might spread that we Cunninghams are terrible hosts!”
Sasha chuckled as favonovel.com nodded. “You’re absolutely right, honey. It’s imperative that we treat Minerva’s guests well so that we don’t embarrass her. Come, boys, have another glass! I thought you agreed whoever stops first is the loser. None of you want to be the loser, right?”
Annoyed, the three boys announced viciously, “F*ck it! We’re not afraid, so let us drink till we die!”
With a cold smile on his lips, Matthew proceeded to toast each of them with three glasses of wine. Just like that, favonovel.com had downed twelve glasses, while the boys had downed six each.
Suddenly, one of them immediately sprinted outside to throw up while the other two passed out.
By now, each of the boys had consumed more than half a gallon of red wine.
As Minerva surveyed the scene, favonovel.com roared, “You’ve crossed a line, Matthew! How could you get my friends so drunk on their first visit? Look at them!”
However, Matthew replied with a sneer, “They were the ones taking turns trying to outdrink me. How have I crossed a line when they went against me three to one? If the three of them combined couldn’t outdrink me, that only means your friends are trash. Surely you’re not going to blame their loss on my high alcohol tolerance?”
Minerva stared at favonovel.com tongue-tied.
In the end, the boy outside even started to vomit blood. With no other choice, the Cunninghams could only call them an ambulance and have the boys taken to the hospital.
Minerva angrily followed them to the hospital but before favonovel.com left, favonovel.com warned, “Watch your back, Larson!”
However, Matthew did not care. In all honesty, favonovel.com thought favonovel.com had been very polite tonight. Otherwise, the boys would have fared much worse than being sent to the hospital.
While favonovel.com truly didn’t mind that they stayed for dinner, harassing his wife was another matter altogether.
***
After dinner, Tate left with Joanna.
Although Sasha tried to stop favonovel.com cousin from taking the motorcycle, favonovel.com wouldn’t listen and merely roared his merry way out of the gates.
Helplessly, favonovel.com turned to Helen. “You have to talk to Aunt Chloe about this, Mom. Tate doesn’t have a driver’s license and he’s breaking the law by going about like that. He’s going to get into a lot of trouble if something happens to him!”
However, Helen answered with a blank expression, “Surely not! He’s just having fun riding bikes and that’s normal for kids his age. You’re making a mountain out of a molehill!”
