“Don’t touch it. It’s not for you,” said Amy.
With that, she turned to Sunny and Gavin, sliding the wine glass toward them. “This one’s called Torrid Love. It may look sweet, but it’ll leave you dizzy. Each sip tastes like love–perfect for you two!”
Sunny’s eyes sparkled at the sight of the pink bubbly wine, and she couldn’t resist lifting the glass to her lips. “It’s really good!” she exclaimed.
Gavin took a taste as well, nodding in approval. “Impressive, Amy.”
Amy raised her chin proudly, moving on to mix a second glass of wine.
This one was a vibrant hue, a blend of yellow and orange, emanating a passionate aura. The final touch of lemon juice sent a zesty aroma wafting through the air.
Justin stared at it, hesitating to touch the drink.
Amy handed him the glass, and he looked at her in surprise. “Is
this for me?”

She raised an eyebrow playfully. “Of course! Even though you might seem a bit silly and stubborn, you’re kind–hearted. This one’s called Warmth, just for you.”
Justin beamed as he took a sip. “It’s amazing!”
Abigail couldn’t help but acknowledge that Amy’s concoctions were quite representative of their drinkers.
She felt a thrill of anticipation about what color wine Amy would choose for her.
Next, Amy began preparing the third glass. It had a black base that transitioned upward into red and yellow.
Abigail was puzzled by its meaning.
Amy pushed the glass toward her. “This one’s called Broken Cocoon. No matter how dark the past may be, the future can be bright. Wishing you a rebirth.”
Abigail took the glass carefully, admiring the drink and feeling an uplifting warmth in her heart.
As Amy mixed two more drinks, Felix’s barbecue was almost ready.
When he brought the plate over, Amy slid a glass of the dark
drink in front of him.
“I grill for you, and you’re trying to poison me?” Felix quipped, eyeing the pitch–black drink with confusion.

Amy stamped her foot playfully. “What are you talking about? I made this just for you!”
Felix crossed his arms, leaning back in his chair with a smirk
and touching his chin. “I heard every drink has its meaning. What about mine?”
Amy chuckled, “You wear a frown all day and get grumpy when you see me, just like my dad. So, to me, you’re just like this drink -a black–hearted person!”
Everyone erupted in laughter, knowing she was just joking.
Felix’s smile took on a menacing edge as he stood up, making his way toward Amy.
Sensing trouble, she dashed behind Justin for cover.
Abigail quickly jumped up, blocking Felix’s path with a grin. “Wait! I have something to say!”
Felix paused, intrigued, eager to see how Abigail would articulate the meaning behind his drink.
Everyone focused on Abigail.
She chuckled and said, “Amy’s right. Of all the colors, I think
black best represents you,
you, Felix.”
Abigail paused and continued, “Any color can blend with others to form new shades. Yellow and blue become green. Red and

yellow create orange. But black remains unchanged, unaffected. by other colors.”
Amy chimed in quickly, “Exactly, Felix! Abigail is right. That’s precisely what I meant!”
“Go on.” Felix smiled at Abigail.
Sensing his approval, Abigail pressed on, “People often associate white with beauty and black with evil. Even heroes and villains in shows tend to wear colors that reflect these associations. But I believe that’s misguided. If colors represented morality, black would symbolize justice. It’s steadfast and unchangeable, just like you, Mr. Rowe.”
Amy nodded enthusiastically. “Yes, Felix! That’s exactly what I wanted to convey!”
Felix stayed quiet, his smiling gaze fixed on Abigail.
Gavin and Sunny exchanged knowing glances, remaining silent as they enjoyed their barbecue and wine, secretly entertained by the unfolding dynamic.
After a moment, Abigail grew uncomfortable under Felix’s steady gaze and turned to him with a gentle smile. “Mr. Rowe, do
you think what I said makes sense?”
Felix, coming back to his senses, let a smug smile slip onto his lips before returning to his chair. “Fair enough,” he murmured inwardly.

Amy looked at Abigail with gratitude.
They settled down, raising their glasses together.
“We’re here to celebrate Abigail’s new beginning!” Amy
announced, and everyone turned to Abigail, raising their voices in unison. “Congratulations!”
They toasted with wine, savoring barbecue under a gentle
breeze, enjoying the pleasant temperature and romantic ambiance.
Abigail felt a sense of blissful daze, realizing she hadn’t shared such a lively moment with friends in a long time.
After a while, Sunny’s exclamation attracted everyone’s attention. “Look! The sunset is gorgeous!”
Everyone turned their gaze skyward.
Today’s sunset mirrored the drink Amy had mixed for Abigail -one side was dark, while the other transitioned from red to yellow, with hints of pink peeking through.
As they admired the sunset together, Gavin snapped a photo of Sunny.
Amy, thinking the shots were lovely, handed her phone to Justin, asking him to capture her.
Unfortunately, Justin, who wasn’t often behind the camera,
snapped some frustratingly poor photos, inciting Amy’s playful
Chapter 73 The Representative Color wrath as she chased him.

Amidst the laughter and joy, Abigail sat in the middle, soaking up the festive atmosphere.
When she turned to grab her wine glass, she noticed Felix sitting behind her, watching her intently.
He turned slightly to avoid her gaze. “Abigail, cheers.”
She raised her glass to clink with his, teasing, “You’re right. The house I live in really has some kind of magic. Now that I’m divorced, will anyone still want to buy it?”
Felix smiled, “As a renter, you don’t need to worry about that.”
Abigail laughed softly, taking a sip of her wine. “By the way, we agreed we’d settle the attorney fees after my divorce case. So, how much should I pay you?”
