The Imposter Bride - Season 3 Episode 75

Lexi fumbled for words, acutely embarrassed by her previous hysterical cry for help that echoed in the room. That was a real face palm moment!

Meanwhile, Callum had been choosing wine in his cellar when he stumbled upon a long–cherished bottle of red wine. He instantly thought of Lexi, believing the sweet, fruity wine would be to her liking. So he brought the bottle up to share

Callum uncorked the bottle with an elegant twist, letting its rich, sweet aroma fill the room.

“Sweetheart, this is a special wine from my private collection perfect for ladies. I thought I’d bring it up to share with you,” he said, pouring the ruby liquid into a delicate wine glass, twirling it gently to aerate the wine befom handing it over to Lexi

Lexi shook her head T I don’t drink *

Truth be told, Lexi could hold her liquor given it was sweet enough. But she didn’t want to drink anything from Callum

Why? Because the last time she drank, she ended up under him

Seeing Lexis evasive gaze, Callum knew what she was thinking. He reassured her “Darling, this wine won’t get you drunk. And I promise, there’s nothing poisonous in it.”

Hearing his words, Lexi felt a surge of defiance. She wasn’t going to let him think less of her. She grabbed the glass, threw her head back, and downed the wine. To her surprise, the wine was indeed delicious–nch and sweet with a tantalizing fruitiness. Very refreshing!

“Mmm, this is really good wine!” Lex couldn’t help but praise.

Callum nodded approvingly and refilled her glass 1 told you it’s good. But remember, fine wine is to be savored, not gulped down”

He lifted his glass, guiding Lex’s eyes to his fingers. “Appreciating wine is a three–step process. Observing the color, smelling the aroma and tasting it gently & insually appealing wine isn’t necessarily good, but a truly good wine always has a captivating color”

Lex nodded She was vaguely aware of these things, but never really bothered to delve into them.

Callum continued to swirl his wine “Two–thirds of a wine’s value lies in its aroma. If the wine’s aroma hasn’t fully developed, gently swirl the glass to let it interact with the ait releasing its richness”

“Yeah, yeah, Lexi raised her glass. “I know all that.”

Seeing her dismissive gesture, Callum chuckled and pointed to her fingers holding the glass. “When holding a wine glass, your fingers shouldn’t touch the bowl it not only maintains the aesthetics but also prevents your hand’s warmth from affecting the wine

Only then did Lexi realize she was holding the glass by its bowl. She shrugged “So what? This is how I always hold a glass. Whats the big deal?”

Callum saw through her nonchalance and laughed. “Appreciating wine is an elegant pastime, not downing shots. Sometimes, seemingly insignificant details can reveal a

person’s class”

‘So you’re saying I lack class? Lex puffed up her cheeks in indignation. “I insist on holding my glass this way. Refill my glass!

Callum shook his head in amusement. Tve never heard of anyone demanding a refill of wine like that. You really are something else!”

“So what? It’s just wine Even the most expensive bottle is made to be drunk. I’ll drink how I please. I can stand, sit, lie down wine bottle on the table, refilled her glass to the brim, and downed it in one gulp.

whatever makes me happy!” Lexi grabbed the

Watching Lex’s childish antics, Callum found her amusing Indeed, no matter how expensive something was, it was meant for enjoyment. Why would he fuss over the rules? Whether you preferred to chug or sip wine, as long as you were happy, that was all that mattered!

“You’re right I’ve been too rigid Let s drin

A short while later Rita returned with a cart full of wine bottles Satisfied Callum dismissed her “Good. You may leave now

Once Rita left, Lexi and Callum were alone again

“This is boring Let’s play Rock Paper, Scissors Lexi suggested already a little tipsy She stood up, swaying slightly, and demonstrated the game to Callum.

“Rock Paper, Scissors? Callum echoed puzzled

Lexi decided it was time to enlighten Callum about the ancient game of Rock, Paper, Scissors She stood up, swaying a little, and gave him a demons

“Rock, scissors, paper

Lexi began to sing and make playful fist bumping motions “See this?” She explained, “We start with these moves, and then fish with a round of rock paper scissors. i bet you know this one, right? Rock

smashes scissors, the scissors cuts paper, and the paper covers the rack. Whoever loses, sings a song!”

Callum watched her perform with a hearty laugh, his interest piqued I’ll give it a shot

“Good lad” Lex replied, giggling and slightly tipsy she felt k to that Callum, feeling jovial, disregarded his usual decorum, and filled his glass to the brim, imitating Lexi.

“Cheers” Lex, her cheeks flushed, raised her glass to clink with Callums.

“Cheers” Callum found the whole situation amusing. They clinked glasses, drank, refilled, and clinked glasses again

Before they knew it, the bottle of wine Callum had brought was empty. Lexi, having forgotten about the storm outside, giggled tipsily. This wine is so good, too bad there’s

only one bottle

“You want more? Callum rang the bell in the room, summoning Rita “May I help you?” She asked

“Go to my cellar and bring the vintage Lafite Callum commanded without even looking at her

Rita nodded. “Yes, sir How many bottles do you need?

Callum waved his hand. “The more, the better” a sense of joy in playing the role of a teacher
