"Oh, I can't drink, but you two can." Melissa Chandler said with a smile.
"How can that be? It's definitely more fun for the three of us to drink together." I was in a good mood and couldn't help but persuade, "Just drink a little, it's fine."
"No way, unless you tell my brother and get his approval." Melissa Chandler pouted, dropping the problem onto me.
I was taken aback, "Me talking to your brother? That's not appropriate, wouldn't it be easier if you just called him?"
"No, if I call, he definitely won't agree." Melissa Chandler nudged my arm, acting cute, "Sister Lily, I really want to drink a little too, can you help me ask my brother?"
"This—" I was quite troubled.
Wennie Lane chimed in as well, persuading, "Just give Mr. Carter a call and tell him we're dining at Holburne, it's no big deal. After dinner, I'll arrange for someone to safely take Melissa home."
I looked worriedly at the two of them.
