A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )

Chapter 42 

Lucas thought about it. She still had the cheek to ask him why? She didn’t look for him when she was in a bad mood. Instead, she asked to see his brother! Did she want her legs to be broken? 

However, Lucas was really henpecked in front of Annabelle. Other than being sharp–tongued, there was nothing else he could do. In the end, he still obediently asked the driver to send him to the manor. Of course, he also followed! 

Reality proved that when one is in a bad mood, they would indeed feel better when they see the person they like. 

Lucas was very unhappy about this fact. 

What did this woman mean? Was she telling him clearly that he was not the person she liked? 

When he saw Annabelle standing in front of his brother like a little fangirl, the dignified Lucas rolled his eyes. 

“What are you doing? Who are you rolling your eyes at?” Mary sat down beside Lucas and said with disdain. Then, she looked at the two people on the other side and couldn’t help but remark emotionally, “They get along so well!” 

Lucas glanced sideways at her without saying a single word. As her mother–in–law, she seemed to be quite happy that Annabelle was getting along well with her older son. 

Of course, Mary was happy. The relationship between the two of them was obviously very pure, okay? Why did Lucas have to think of it in such a lewd manner? In her opinion, that was Lucas’s problem. 

Today, there weren’t many people at the Walker family’s residence. Donald and Susan had been invited to a hot spring by an old friend. Benjamin usually lived outside on his own and would not come back unless he was asked to. As for Elizabeth, it was said that she wanted to rely on herself so she found a job as a clerk and had been working for two days. 

Timothy was also in the office. If the couple did not come, other than the nanny, the housekeeper, and the chauffeur, there would only be Mary and Lucas’s brother at home. 

Noah had just finished a period of work and could take a break for the time being. It was really inconvenient for a big star like him to travel. In addition, he ran here and there when he was working. It was rare for him to take a break, so he was more willing to stay at 

home. 

“Shall we make ravioli for lunch?” Mary suddenly became interested and said, “We don’t need Brenda’s help. We’ll make our own ravioli. How about that?” 

“Okay, okay!” Annabelle was the first to raise her hand in agreement. “I can make really nice ravioli!” 

Noah smiled and said, “Let’s make ravioli then!” 

Lucas said, “Hehe…” Now, they didn’t even need to ask for his opinion, huh? 

Indeed, no one asked. Brenda saw that they were in high spirits and especially found a few aprons before leaving the kitchen to 

them. 

After two hours of cooking and ten minutes of eating dumplings, Lucas left with Annabelle. Annabelle wanted to struggle a little more, but she was mercilessly suppressed by Lucas. He picked her up and stuffed her into the car. Without saying goodbye to her, he started the car and left. 

Annabelle was smart enough to leave the Walker family. Without anyone to back her up, she became obedient and sat quietly in the front passenger seat. 

Seeing this, Lucas could not help but sneer. 

Annabelle was speechless. 

Just as Annabelle was wondering if she should coax him, her phone suddenly rang and made a decision for her. 

“Are you picking it up? I’ll hold it for you!” Annabelle looked at the phone in the car and asked a certain someone who was driving. 

“Answer it!” Lucas thought for a moment and said. 

Those who weren’t close to him wouldn’t be able to call him. Those who could call him were naturally people who had a close relationship with him. 

When Annabelle heard him say this, she helped him answer the call and even very considerately raised the phone to her ear. 

Chapter 42 

Annabelle didn’t want to eavesdrop. Unfortunately, the voice on the other end of the phone kept ringing in her ears. 

After listening to a few sentences, Annabelle understood that the person who called should be Lucas’s very close friend. He called because another friend had returned from overseas, so they had organized a gathering and invited Lucas. 

Before Lucas made his decision, he didn’t forget to ask Annabelle with his eyes. 

Annabelle quickly waved her free hand. “Go ahead, I won’t stop you!” 

It was normal to have a meal or a drink with friends. Once Christina comes back, she would definitely catch up with her! There was nothing to stop her! 

Hence, Lucas gave her a meaningful look and agreed to the invitation. 

They had an appointment at five in the evening and there was still an entire afternoon left. After Lucas sent her home, he was not in a hurry to leave. 

He first went to the study room to keep himself busy for a while. It was almost 4:30 p.m. before he packed up and prepared to leave. 

After Annabelle returned home, she played with his phone for a while and slept for half an hour. When she woke up, she put away her clothes, ironed them, and hung them up. Feeling hungry, she went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of ramen for herself. 

When she came out with the ramen, she saw Lucas dressed neatly. His facial features were exquisite, and his figure was excellent. Most importantly, his clothes were top–notch. Annabelle felt that the ramen in her hands was no longer fragrant! 

Come to think of it, this was the legendary feast for the eyes! 

“Are you having dinner already?” Lucas raised his eyebrows. How long had it been since lunch? 

Annabelle shook her head and patted her stomach. He said seriously, “It’s not that I want to eat, but your children are hungry!” 

Lucas was speechless. 

“Do you want some?” Annabelle carried the bowl of ramen to the dining room. After taking two steps, she stopped and asked kindly. 

Although she did not cook much, she could share some with him if he insisted on eating. 

“No need!” Lucas said indifferently, “Go and feed the two children! I’m leaving!” 

“Oh!” Annabelle replied and carried the bowl of noodles to the dining room. 

Lucas, who was at the door, stopped in his tracks. He turned around and reminded worriedly, “Remember to call me if there’s anything!” 

“I know!” Annabelle thought to herself, ‘He’s just going out for a meal, not planning to stay out for ten days to half a month. What could happen?‘ 

Lucas looked at a certain someone who had already buried her head in her food and felt his heart wrench up. He was so angry that he didn’t want to care about her anymore. She opened the door but nevertheless, held his anger in. “If there’s anything you want to eat, you can call me and tell me. I’ll bring it back for you!” 

“Annabelle, who had a mouthful of ramen in her mouth, was really in a difficult position. At this time, should she swallow the ramen or vomit? She had no choice but to make an ‘OK‘ gesture at him. 

Lucas was so angry that he went straight out the door. This woman was not only silly and naive, but she was heartless too. His thoughtfulness had been wasted. 

Instead of asking the driver to come over, Lucas drove to the clubhouse himself. At home, he was just an ordinary person. Outside, his domineering aura could be felt from miles away. There was no need to know who he was. The waiter at the door welcomed him in respectfully. 

“Mr. Walker, you’re here. Mr. Smith and the others are already waiting for you in Euphoria Hall!” When the lobby manager saw Lucas, he quickly greeted him politely.
