A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )
A Drunken Decision Cynthia Chapter 44

Chapter 44

“Hm?” Lucas raised an eyebrow.

Yolanda continued, “A marriage without love won’t last long! If you only get married for the sake of your child, not only will you be irresponsible to yourself, but you’ll also be irresponsible to others!”

“Love?” Lucas thought of that person and could not help but laugh softly. Although they had not been together for long and he had not reached the level of love for her, he did not dislike her. She was simple, straightforward, and wore her heart on her sleeve. He did not like playing mind games. Annabelle’s personality was surprisingly to his liking. The key was that she was beautiful and had a perfect figure. At least, it was all because of his love. Although he did not want to admit it, he was indeed infatuated with her body.

Lucas thought that if he was given a little more time, he would definitely fall in love with that person.

Yes, he would love her although it was infuriating when she made him angry!

“Yes!” In front of outsiders, Lucas still saved Annabelle a lot of pride. Although he didn’t love her yet, he would definitely love her in the future. Therefore, Lucas felt that he wasn’t lying

“…Is that so?” Yolanda’s expression was a little stiff as she muttered unnaturally.

The person singing sounded incredibly devoted as she seemed to be pouring her heart out in song. They shouted so loudly that Lucas did not hear what Yolanda said at all. Under the dim light, she did not notice Yolanda’s expression.

Coincidentally, Josh came over and pulled him over to talk. Lucas was no longer in the mood to pay attention to Yolanda.

Yolanda was pushed to the side by Josh. She sat there expressionlessly. The singing in her ears was out of tune, and she had no choice but to increase the volume of her voice. Yolanda felt that she could not control her frustration, but she also understood that the reason for her frustration was not the noisy environment, but the word ‘love‘ that Lucas said.

“Yolanda!” At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in her ears. Yolanda turned around and saw Howard sitting beside her. When she looked over, he stuffed a small gift box into her hand.

“This is the gift I prepared for you! Welcome back!” Howard was one of the people who grew up with Lucas and Josh. He had a gentle personality and did not like to talk.

Yolanda looked at the small box in her hand and could not help but smile gently.

“Can I open it?”

“Of course, you can!”

Howard was embarrassed by her smile and hurriedly spoke.

There was a bottle of perfume in the box.

When Yolanda saw this, she looked pleasantly surprised. “I’ve wanted this for a long time, but I didn’t manage to cop it back then!”

This was a limited edition series worldwide. It was not something that could be bought with money!

Seeing her sincere joy, Howard could not help but laugh. “I didn’t get it either. I asked Lucas for help. As long as you like it!”

“Thank you, I like it very much!” Yolanda could not help but pause when she heard this. Then, she said to Howard. After saying that, she even glanced at Lucas.

Howard did not know what to say. He only repeated, “As long as you like it.”

After saying that, he felt a little vexed. He always seemed to be so bad at talking in front of this person.

“Can I spray it to try?” Yolanda looked at it again and again before asking..

“Of course! This perfume already belongs to you!” Howard said.

Yolanda smiled and nodded. She took the perfume and sprayed it in the air. The rich fragrance of flowers immediately filled the air.

Yolanda was willing to spit it out. The scent had more or less landed on the people around her.

Yolanda liked this strong smell very much, but Lucas did not like it that much. When mixed with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol, Lucas felt that he could barely breathe.

“It’s getting late. I’m worried about my wife being alone at home. That’s all for today. Continue playing. You can charge me for

tonight’s expenses. We’ll meet again when we’re free next time!”

Lucas couldn’t care less about being angry with Annabelle. He stood up, took his coat, and said goodbye to these people.

Normally, Josh and the others would not let him leave just like that. However, when Lucas mentioned the pregnant Annabelle, everyone was too embarrassed to ask him to stay. They only asked him to bring his wife out for a gathering sometime.

Lucas naturally agreed. As for the date, that was another matter.

Before leaving, Lucas did not forget to say a few words to Yolanda. However, the fragrance beside Yolanda was even stronger, so he said a few more words and left.

He did not understand why anyone would like such a strong perfume. Thinking of this, he felt that his wife’s scent was still the best. Annabelle’s body had always smelled fresh and refreshing. Even if there was a scent, it would be subtle and fresh. He did not feel sick of it at all.

“I always thought that Norman would be the first one among us to get married. I didn’t expect Lucas to beat him to it!” In the corridor, Josh said absentmindedly as he watched Lucas walk away.

“I didn’t expect it either!” Irving muttered. “My cousin, Lucas, got married and my aunt didn’t even tell my grandfather, my father,

and the rest about it!”

“I’m very curious about what kind of girl can conquer the dignified Mr. Walker!” Howard said.

“What’s there to be curious about? Just go to the Walker family’s residence tomorrow!” Yolanda stood behind them and said calmly, “I just came back and want to visit Grandpa Donald and Grandma Susan! And Lucas’s parents too! If you guys are so curious, come with me!”

“Yes, we’re going. Yolanda, wait for me tomorrow morning. I’ll go with you!” Josh was the first to express his stance.

The others also raised their hands in agreement.

Lucas naturally did not know that his good brothers were so curious about his wife, Annabelle. He did not ask the driver to pick him up and drove back himself.

However, just as he started the car, his phone, which had been silent for the entire night, finally rang.

Lucas was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he took out his phone from his pocket. When he saw the person who sent him the message, some of them raised their eyebrows.

Annabelle was a little embarrassed. After dinner, she washed up and prepared to sleep. For some reason, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

In the end, she had no choice but to get up from the bed and scroll through her phone.

She had just scrolled through her classmates” Instagram stories of them having some minestrone soup at the food trucks near the

school.

The minestrone soup immediately left a deep impression in her heart. No matter how many times she scrolled through the Instagram stories and watched the reels, she could not forget about the minestrone soup.

She had initially planned to go out searching for food on her own, but when she looked at the time, it was almost ten o’clock. She

took off her coat.

It was already so late. It was still very dangerous for a beautiful young lady like her to go to such a far and remote university town!

It was fine if she was alone, but she was pregnant with twins. If she implicated the children, she would be unable to absolve herself of the blame even if she died 10,000 times.

After much consideration, she hesitantly sent a text message to Lucas. “Is your gathering over?”
