Keith and Trent didn’t know what had happened between Charlie and Hannah before. But they had been in the Compton family for years and knew what kind of person Charlie was. So, they both were alert when around Charlie.
Trent scowled at Charlie and asked, “Are you close to Hannah? If not, I am sure she doesn’t need a welcome from you.”
“Master Trent, Master Keith, you’ve never been so kind to Miss Compton. Could it be that you want to become the boss’s son-in-law?”
Charlie covered his lips with a fan, revealing only his eyes, which seemed to be smiling with mockery. “Lady Hannah will need to think carefully before making a choice of whether she should choose either of you.”
His words made Keith and Trent feel annoyed, and they both jumped to their feet, ready to pounce on him.
“What do you want?”
Charlie showed no sign of fear. With his fan still covering his lips, he continued, “Are you angry because you are embarrassed by my words?
You want to hit me?”
Bang!
Hannah suddenly smashed a bottle of whisky right in front of Charlie, and the bottle happened to hit Charlie’s arm, which immediately drew the attention of others present there.
“They won’t hit you. Didn’t you say you would welcome me warmly?
This whisky is on me. Drink it!”
Charlie raised his eyebrows while glancing at the opened whisky bottle. “What do you mean, Miss Moore?”
“I mean what I said.”
Cupping her chin with her hands, Hannah looked at him and said innocently, “Didn’t you say you would receive me well? I like watching an interesting show the most, and drinking whisky is very interesting. When you drink the whisky, you must gulp it down in one go. Or else, it wouldn’t be fun.”

With that being said, Hannah turned her head and glanced at the Compton brothers. “You two, take your seats. Let’s watch him drink.”
Before, Charlie deliberately said that he would receive her well just to annoy her. However, his plan didn’t work for Hannah.
Instead of falling into his trap, she managed to set him up in his own trap.
Seeing him stay silent, Hannah showed a big smile and urged, “What are you waiting for? You don’t want to drink? You said you would have welcomed me in person. They were just empty word, weren’t they?”
“I’ll drink it.”
Charlie quickly picked up the bottle with a wry smile. “Of course, I will entertain you and make you enjoy yourself tonight, Lady Hannah.”
Putting the bottle tip on his lips, he raised his head and gulped down the entire whisky in it. This amount of liquor didn’t mean anything to him.
“Bravo!” Hannah generously complimented. “I’ll ask the waiter to get us two more bottles. It’s so amazing that you could gulp down in one go. I really enjoyed the show a lot.”
Charlie couldn’t say no to her request although he knew very well that she was giving him trouble intentionally.
