A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )

Chapter 46 

Lucas went to take a shower while Annabelle carried the piping hot minestrone soup to the dining room. As expected, the taste was as good as before! 

Lucas took a shower and put on comfortable home clothes. Then, he carried the clothes he had changed out of to the laundry room. 

After everything was done, he found his wife in the dining room. Annabelle was holding a spoon in one hand and crispy biscuits in the other. She ate contentedly, and her little mouth was red from the spiciness. 

Lucas sat down beside her, his gaze never leaving her. 

Annabelle felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. She endured it for a moment but soon asked him to stop staring at her. At first, she was a little puzzled, but when she saw the minestrone soup, she immediately understood. 

“Do you want to try it?” Annabelle looked at him and asked seriously. Before he could answer, she pushed the bowl of minestrone soup toward him. 

“I want to try it!” Lucas nodded and said softly. 

When Annabelle heard him say this, she was not stingy either. She handed him her spoon. Seeing that he did not move for a long time, she thought that he minded the fact she had used that spoon. Just as she was about to retract her hand, she saw his face coming closer and suddenly enlarging in front of him. Before Annabelle could react, he covered her mouth. 

Her large, round eyes widened immediately, filled with shock and shame. 

A moment later, Lucas finally let go of her and sighed with a serious expression. “It’s indeed quite delicious!” 

It took Annabelle a long time to understand what he meant. His face instantly turned red. 

This person… this person is really… too shameless. She didn’t ask him to taste it like that! 

“However, the doctor said that this sour and spicy soup has a strong taste, and it’s easy to get heaty. You should eat less! Therefore, after eating this meal, you have to eat the next one a few days later!” 

The topic changed, and Annabelle’s attention was easily diverted. She was an easily satisfied child. At this moment, she was already feeling very contented to be able to eat the minestrone soup she had been longing for. 

Hence, when he heard Lucas’s words, he immediately nodded obediently. 

Lucas really liked her obedient appearance. Seeing her like this, he wanted to reach out and knead her face. 

With that thought in mind, he did so. 

Annabelle was furious. She reached out and slapped his hand away. Just as she was about to continue eating, she remembered that the smell of perfume had lingered on his body. She quickly put down her chopsticks and planned to have a good talk with him. 

When Lucas saw her expression, he wanted to laugh. He was afraid that he would anger her, so he could only endure it and wait for her to speak with a serious expression. 

“You said that marriage is not a joke. Since we’re getting married, we have to treat it seriously. You also said that we have to give our children a healthy and family. I took all of this seriously! Did I do something wrong?” This was also one of the reasons she 

Ashley have Lucas despite knowing that she liked him. 

refused to give in and 

“No, you did well!” Lucas stopped joking and said seriously. 

Annabelle nodded. “They say that marriage takes effort from both parties. I can’t be the only one working hard. You have to work hard too!” 

Lucas nodded again. “You’re right!” 

“Therefore, you have to know your limits. First of all, you have to keep a distance from the opposite sex! Even if she’s just a friend or even a best friend who grew up with you, you can’t cross the line!” 

Lucas was silent for a moment before nodding seriously. “I understand!” 

Annabelle felt that his attitude was alright and was slightly satisfied. Then, she continued, “Of course, I’ll follow the same standards too! I won’t get too close to other men!” 

When Lucas heard this, he immediately remembered how passionate Annabelle was toward him. He quickly added, “Then stay

away from my brother from now on!” 

When Annabelle heard this, she could not believe what she was hearing. This person was really… However, In the end, Annabelle still agreed. She did not get too close to him to begin with. Since he was her idol, it was good enough to see him shine from afar. 

After this problem was settled, Annabelle could finally eat in peace. 

After having had his fill and clearing the table, Annabelle went back to the bathroom to wash her teeth and face. Then, she climbed onto the bed and very consciously grabbed one of Lucas’s arms to put it down. She rested her head on his arm and wrapped her arms around his waist. She also wrapped her legs around his and closed her eyes in satisfaction. 

Great! After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, he still had someone to accompany him to sleep! 

Lucas thought of Annabelle, who was frowning even in her sleep when she first came back. Then, he looked at her smooth movements and satisfied expression. His mood inexplicably improved. 

“I’ll bring you to meet my friends when we’re free one day!” Lucas poked her cheek and said softly. 

Annabelle did not open her eyes and merely assented softly. 

Annabelle naturally had no objections to meeting his friends. This meant that he had started to bring her into his territory. 

“I have a friend you should meet too, but she’s still overseas. She’s different from ordinary people. Once she’s busy, she can’t be contacted even once for half a year. When she comes back, I’ll bring you to meet her too!” Annabelle said as she rubbed her face against his shoulder. 

“Okay!” 

Lucas responded. Seeing that Annabelle was really sleepy, he did not continue talking. Sure enough, after a while, he heard Annabelle’s regular and calm breathing. 

Lucas turned off the lights and carefully hugged the person beside him before closing his eyes. 

The next day, Lucas woke up at the right time. He looked at the person who was still sleeping soundly beside him and gently pulled his arm out. Seeing that the person was frowning, he quickly stuffed his pillow into her arms. Seeing that she was stable, he quietly got out of bed. 

After washing up, he changed into a fresh set of clothes and left the bedroom. The part–time housekeeper, Brenda, had already brought fresh ingredients over. 

Brenda made breakfast for Lucas because she knew that the mistress would wake up late. Usually, she would clean the house first. before preparing breakfast for the mistress. 

Lucas got off the treadmill. Afraid of waking up Annabelle, who was still sleeping, he went to the bathroom in the guest room to take a shower as usual. After tidying up, he went to eat breakfast and prepared to go to work. 

When Annabelle woke up, she was alone in the house again. As usual, she went to the kitchen to find some food to fill her stomach. Then, she took out her phone and filtered out those useless or unimportant messages. Annabelle saw the message Nathan had left for her. He said that he had arrived safely and had settled down with the help of Lucas’s friend. He told her not to worry and asked 

her to thank Lucas on his behall. 

Annabelle did not 

should do since Lucas to ask a friend to pick Nathan up. She had not thought of this and had forgotten what her brother 

was unfamiliar with the place. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Lucas’s arrangement was really thoughtful. She wanted to call him to thank him. 

However, before she could dial the number, a call came in.
