Chapter 1224 She Loves Wine
“There's one more thing,” Bertilla said as he placed a gold invitation card on the table. “I forgot to give this to you
yesterday. It's an invitation to Margaret's wine-tasting party.”
When Cooper heard the word “wine,” he paused for a moment and took the invitation card.
Margaret was a globally renowned red wine distributor, and the high-end red wines chosen by its wine tasters were
highly regarded in the industry.
Cooper wasn't particularly fond of wine, but he had a faint memory that Sally enjoyed them, and her favorite was
Château Mouton Rothschild's 1855.
Cooper's face suddenly darkened as he found himself thinking about that woman again. He slammed the invitation
card onto the table, causing Bertilla to jump in surprise.
Cooper motioned for Bertilla to leave, and once he had finished his work, he made his way downstairs.
Tiffany was a dedicated teacher and managed to help Amanda memorize the multiplication table in just one
afternoon.
When Cooper gave Tiffany the skincare products Bertilla bought, she hesitated to accept them, insisting that it was
her duty to teach the children. However, Cooper was insistent.

don't want the gift, I'll give you cash instead.”
Cooper gave the gift to Tiffany not only to avoid owing her a favor but also because he wanted her to be nicer to
the children at school.
Tiffany had no choice but to accept it after hearing Cooper's words.
After the car left Swallow Garden, Tiffany hesitated for a moment before asking, “Mr. Sutton, do you enjoy red
wine?”
“Not really,” replied Cooper.
Tiffany elaborated, “I have a friend who owns a winery. A wine-tasting event will be hosted tonight at Regal Vista
Hotel, and her winery's wine was fortunate enough to be selected for tasting. She invited me to attend and try it
out.”
Cooper then remembered something and asked, “Is it hosted by Margaret?”
“Do you know about it?” Tiffany felt that her question was unnecessary after she had asked it.
After all, event organizers would eagerly seek someone of Cooper's status to attend their wine-tasting event, as it
would greatly enhance the event's prestige.
Tiffany continued, “I spoke to her this afternoon, and she mentioned that there will also be a selection of wines
from Château Mouton Rothschild at the event.”
Cooper drove with an indifferent expression on his face, looking straight ahead.
Observing his demeanor, Tiffany decided against attending the event, especially since Regal Vista Hotel was far
away. She wasn't particularly interested in going anyway. As she was about to inform her friend of her absence,
Cooper suddenly spoke up. “I'll drive you there.”
The wine-tasting event started at five o'clock in the evening and was held in a two-story mansion next to Regal Vista
Hotel.
Upon arrival, Tiffany and Cooper observed many guests engaged in conversation in the garden outside of the
mansion.
Margaret's wine taster greeted and led Tiffany and Cooper into the event hall. He informed them that there were
wines from thirty-three red wine wineries around the world at the event, and each of them was worth a try.
Suddenly, Cooper heard someone calling his name.
Turning his head, he was taken aback to see Jerry in casual attire.
“I have something to take care of. Why don't you ask the wine expert to recommend some wines for you,” Cooper
said to Tiffany before taking a glass of wine and leaving the hall with Jerry.
Cooper and Jerry reached a quiet spot in the garden, and Cooper asked Jerry, “Why are you here? Shouldn't you be

Jerry lifted his hand and rubbed his temples, letting out a deep sigh before explaining, “The Benson family incident
has hit her hard. She hasn't been able to shake it off. She even asked Timothy to investigate her father's death.”
Charlotte had lived a life of luxury for most of her life, but little did she know that one day her world would crumble,
and her father would also pass away.
Recently, Jerry had sought her out several times to try and console her and take her out to relax, but she declined.
Eventually, she even stopped picking up his calls.
After hearing that, Cooper inquired, “Would Timothy look into it?”
“No. I've told him not to.”
If Jiminy's death was just an accident or was caused by anyone else, Cooper might still have been able to assist.
However, since the people in question were Jerry's relatives, Cooper couldn't offer his help to her.
Jerry raised his head and took a few sips of his wine before sharing his recent findings with Cooper. “The cunning
old foxes who sided with the Gaudette family did everything perfectly. I couldn't find any mistakes in their actions,”
he said.
Regardless, given the dark side of politics, it was unlikely that those who sided with the Gaudette family were
innocent.
