A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )
A Drunken Decision Cynthia Chapter 61

Chapter 61

At home, Madeline smashed everything that she touched. When Braxton returned, he saw what was happening and immediately frowned.

“What’s wrong now?” Braxton was feeling vexed. He also felt that after his daughter, Ashley, returned, his family had become a mess. However, it was not that he could not understand his wife’s thinking. Therefore, even if he did not agree with her on some things, he still let her do it.

As long as she could feel more comfortable because of this, it would be worth it.

However, the truth was obviously not as wonderful as Braxton had imagined. Even though Madeline smashed things, her mood did not improve. The mood in the house was oppressive and depressing. Braxton could not help but think of the past. When his son Nathan and daughter Annabelle were still around. Even though both of them did not have much ambition or ability, they made the family lively and cheerful.

And now? Nathan had left the country. The money Braxton had prepared for his son had been taken back by Madeline. Annabelle was married off in a disgraceful manner. Fortunately, the person she had married was the Walker family’s second

son, Lucas.

It was the Walker family. If there wasn’t an accident, the Ross family wouldn’t have anything to do with the Walker family!

What a great opportunity!

The Ross family and the Walker family had become in–laws. Even if the Ross family could not use this opportunity to raise their status instantly, they could definitely take a huge step upward.

However, because of his wife’s attitude, that opportunity had been thrown away.

“You’re like this every day. Can’t you stop?” In the end, Braxton still felt dissatisfied. Soldiers who did not want to be generals were not good soldiers. A man should have ambitions. In the past, he did not have opportunities and could only develop the Ross family to this extent. Now the opportunity was right in front of him. He also wanted the Ross family to enter the circle. of the most wealthy.

The prerequisite for all of this was for his wife to reconcile with his older daughter.

“You want me to stop? Why don’t I stop?” Madeline’s anger did not subside after hearing Braxton’s words. Instead, her anger burned even hotter. “Do you know how she bullied our daughter?”

Annabelle knew clearly what Ashley was thinking, but Annabelle still posted those disgusting things on her Instagram story. Wasn’t Annabelle deliberately making her sister feel terrible?

Yes, Annabelle must have done it on purpose!

Annabelle was deliberately showing off her loving husband and making her sister feel terrible. Poor Ashley. She had already run away to hide and was still bullied by Annabelle. Madeline’s heart ached when she thought of how Ashley tried to hide

her sadness.

Annabelle was simply despicable!

“Don’t blame everything on Anna!” Braxton frowned and said impatiently, “I’ve seen Anna’s Instagram story too. I don’t think there’s a problem!”

It was just a hand. If Ashley could not take that, it was better to block her from Annabelle’s Instagram story as soon as possible. What if Annabelle posted an intimate photo on Valentine’s Day, wouldn’t Ashley die of anger?

“What do you mean?” Madeline frowned at what her husband said. “Have you forgotten who your real daughter is?”

“What are you talking about?” Braxton’s face instantly turned cold. “Anna and Ashley are both our daughters! You’d better not

talk nonsense!”

Madeline looked at him with a sinister expression and did not say anything. She only smiled coldly.

“I want you to treat Anna better in the future!” Braxton continued to tell his wife. “How have you treated her in the past? If

you

continue to treat her in the same way and go against her again, don’t blame me for falling out with you!”

With that, Braxton went upstairs.

Madeline watched as he left. She was so angry that her chest heaved violently.

However, she soon found out from her daughter why Braxton’s attitude had changed. When she found out, Madeline could not help but sneer.

That man was even more disgusting than her.

At noon the next day, Annabelle had lunch with Braxton. She arrived at the restaurant half an hour earlier than the agreed time. It showed how much she was looking forward to it.

However, halfway through the meal with her father, the anticipation and joy in Annabelle’s heart disappeared.

At first, Braxton was concerned about what was happening in Annabelle’s life. Then, he asked about her relationship with Lucas. After that, he talked about the development project of the new technology park in the southern district of Yaleview.

So, Braxton did not look her up because he missed his daughter and wanted to eat with her, but because he wanted to work with Pearl Group on the development project of the southern district of Yaleview?

Annabelle could not describe how she was feeling!

Maybe it was just as her mother had said. Maybe Annabelle was not Braxton and Madeline’s child?

Then whose child was she?

Annabelle suddenly felt uninterested. What did it matter whose child she was?

In the end, her father did not love her. Otherwise, why would he let someone else raise her?

“I don’t know who Lucas intends to work with either!” Annabelle looked at Braxton, who sat across her with a face full of anticipation. She said calmly, “Dad, you know I never cared about these things! And I don’t have a say in them either!”

“Why not?” Braxton sounded anxious. “You’re his wife, Annabelle. He has to hear your opinion on such a big matter!”

Annabelle shook her head. “I have no opinions. I know my limits. I won’t give opinions on things I don’t understand!”

“You foolish child!” Braxton was furious. In the past, he thought that it was fine for a girl to be a little foolish. Anyway, he did not expect her to achieve anything. It was not bad to just shop, go to cafes, and do beauty treatments. Now, he realized that it was not good to be too foolish. His daughter was so foolish that it made his head spin.

“You have to tell him more,” pressed Braxton. “Ross Group is still competent. We’re also his in–laws, so we’re the most trustworthy partners! Tell him to consider working with us!” Braxton did not hold back anymore. He feared his daughter would not understand him, so he went straight to the point.

“I see!” Annabelle revealed a look of realization. “Now I get it!”

When Braxton heard her say that, he immediately beamed with joy and praised Annabelle.

As Annabelle listened on, her heart was already numb! Her father’s praises would never cause any ripples in her heart again.

This numbness lasted until Braxton was satisfied and left. Annabelle sat in the restaurant and watched her father’s figure leave until he was out of sight.

Then, she lay on the restaurant’s table and cried silently. She seemed to have finally accumulated enough disappointment. At this moment, she vented it out with all her heart.

Chapter 61

When Lucas came in, he saw her lying on the table and trembling slightly.

In fact, when he knew that his father–in–law had arranged to meet Annabelle, Lucas already expected that this would happen. However, Lucas did not stop Annabelle, who was full of excitement and anticipation. There were some things that were better for her to see clearly. Although this process was a little painful, it was better to end the pain now than to let it drag on. Instead of holding onto an impossible dream, it was better to completely shatter it.

“Let’s go home!” said Lucas.
