So, even though Arthur was a seasoned yer, Neville held his own.
The game ended in a tie.
Pleased with the match, Arthurplimented Neville.
“You’ve got a knack for cards, huh? You must y quite a bit.
”
Neville responded with a humble grin, “I’m ttered, Mr.
Jones.
You’re the toughest opponent I’ve faced.
”
He then gave Kassidy a significant nce, hinting at her to get the contract ready.
Catching the hint, Arthur waved him off.
“No rush.
You’ve made the trip here; let’s not dive into business just yet.
How about I give you a tour first?”
Neville frowned.
He really wanted to wrap this up quickly, but Arthur was his client, and he felt he couldn’t just say no.
He gave a reluctant nod, saying, “Alright, thanks a lot.
”
Arthur slung an arm around Neville’s shoulder.
“You’ve got a lot to discover here.
I’m sure you’ll start to enjoy it all in no time.
”
With that, he led Neville to a car, and they set off.
After about half an hour, they pulled up in front of a winery.
Arthur walked in, with Neville and Kassidy in tow.
“Wee to the biggest winery in town.
You’re in luck.
There’s a wine-tasting event today.
It’s the perfect opportunity to try our finest wines.
You really shouldn’t skip it.
”
Neville just nodded in response.
Once inside the party, Arthur grabbed two sses of wine from a passing waiter and handed one to Neville.
After tasting the wine, Nevillemented, “This is quite good.
”
Arthur didn’t stop there.
He continued to introduce Neville to more wines, and without really noticing, Neville ended up drinking quite a bit.
Finally, Arthur turned to Kassidy, offering her a ss of wine as well.
“Miss, would you like a drink?”
Before Kassidy could say anything, Neville grabbed the ss and smiled.
“Mr.
Jones, she’s not much of a drinker.
Let me drink to your health instead.
”
Arthur didn’t push further.
He lifted his ss, replying, “Thanks.

Throughout the party, Arthur avoided talking about the contract, focusing instead on enjoying his drinks.
Neville and Kassidy found no opportunity to bring it up.
Eventually, without having reached any agreement with Arthur, Neville ended uppletely drunk.
The wine tasting came to an end, and Kassidy supported a now unconscious Neville.
