Bab 101: He Knew!

"I'll take you to Caspar..." Jean said. He gave a sign to the others, "I'll go straight to the car. You wait for me there."

Jean and Finland walked back to where they left Caspar. Jadeith, who saw them approach, escorted them to the table where Caspar and Aldebar were chatting and enjoying their wine chatting.

"You are back?" Caspar asked. He quickly stood up and opened a chair for Finland, then signaled for a waiter to come. He then asked Finland in a soft voice. "What would you like to drink?"

"Red wine or champagne, whatever," Finland answered.

"One champagne for me," Jean said.

Caspar turned and looked at Jean in surprise. He did not remember offering Jean to sit and drink with them because he knew that Jean had to leave with Billie's group.

"Don't you have to go?" he asked.

"Soon," Jean answered. "I can't leave without congratulating my best friend on her wedding."

Just then the waiter arrived with a tray of drinks.
