Chapter 645 Drinks on the House?
1/4
The bustling ambiance that had filled the air just a moment ago inexplicably turned cold.
The bright smiles on the faces of the group members disappeared, replaced by unease.
Although many didn’t recognize the man at the entrance, there was an underlying feeling that this man had an air of unparalleled charisma, shining like a galaxy of stars yet also carrying an ominous undertone as if he could unleash destruction at any moment.
His appearance instantly turned the previously vibrant private room into what felt like a battlefield.
Cora was also caught off guard as she hadn’t expected Byron would come to their private room.
Among the people in this room, he was only more familiar with her and Tyler.
However, due to Tyler’s past affection for Cora a few years ago, Byron hadn’t interacted much with Tyler lately.
Hence, in this instance, he could only have come for her.
However, his behavior in the elevator just a moment ago made it seem like they were total strangers. She had started to believe he
Chapter 645 Drinks on the House? genuinely intended to cut off all contact with her.
Cora felt a bit flustered and anxious.
She carefully observed the man’s facial expression, hoping to catch a glimpse of concern. The manager, following the man, arrived with a bottle of wine.
The manager announced, “Mr. Hansen has kindly gifted this bottle of Roma Imperiale Grand, a delightful dry red wine for everyone’s enjoyment.”

The manager was swift in action, promptly opening the red wine and carefully pouring it into a decanter.
Upon hearing the name of the wine, the people in the private room couldn’t help but whisper to each other, “Wow, Roma Imperiale Grand dry red wine. A single bottle could buy me a
commuter car.”
“Just a few sips would cost me a month’s salary.”
“It’s my lack of money that’s constraining my imagination!”
However, even though they were impressed, no one dared to approach and thank Byron because his intimidating presence made it impossible to get close to him.
It had been a long time since Tyler saw Byron, and after a brief moment of surprise, he greeted him, saying, “Byron, long time
no see.”

“Yeah, it’s been a while. That’s why I brought a bottle of wine for you guys,” replied Byron. His tone was flat, but the chilling aura he exuded made his words sound as if they were mixed with shards of ice.
“Then, on behalf of my classmates, thank you, Byron,” Tyler said as he took the corkscrew from the manager and poured two glasses of wine.
He handed one to Byron, and they clinked glasses.
Byron asked, “You’re not leaving for good this time?”
“Yeah, I’ve decided to stay and explore opportunities in New York,” Tyler confirmed.
“That’s good to hear. Well then, enjoy the rest of the party and have a good time,” Byron said.
After saying that, Byron downed the red wine in his glass and left.
The manager nodded at Tyler and quickly followed Byron.
Throughout the entire interaction, the man never once looked at
Cora.
Both Sally and Tyler could sense that something was off between Cora and Byron, and they gazed at Cora in bewilderment.
However, after a moment of hesitation with her eyes lowered, Cora chased after him.

Only then did the rest of the people in the private room realize that it was not solely because Tyler was there that they could enjoy the expensive red wine.
Almost everyone wore an expression of surprise, while Evie, in the corner, seemed to be contemplating something.
Despite online claims about Cora having influential financial backers, Evie remained firm in her belief that Cora was using media publicity to create her image.
However, the man’s arrival just now made Evie wonder if Cora honestly had a powerful capitalist behind her.
Yet, after she observed the man’s cold and aloof demeanor and noticed how he completely ignored Cora…
Evie immediately thought that perhaps she could soon have such a man backing her up too…
