A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )

Chapter 105 

Lucas could not help but laugh when he heard that. However, he still listened to her and took a photo of the watch, and posted it on his Instagram story. 

Compared to Annabelle, who did not have many friends, Lucas had many. When they saw him post a story, both real and fake friends of his would not ignore it. After all, Lucas never posted much. In fact, it was rare for him to post anything, and it would usually be a public display of affection whenever he posted. Regular friends or acquaintances would simply give their blessings for the couple, while those closer to him would complain that he was mocking those single. 

Lucas sneered at the sight of that, “Even stray dogs on the street have a partner, yet, they are still single.” 

Lucas ignored their clamor. However, the group chat with his close friends was very lively. Everyone was spamming memes at Lucas to express their sourness toward him and Annabelle. 

Lucas was in a good mood and joined in the spamming 

Everyone in the group chat instantly realized he was in a good mood. 

Yolanda was also in the group chat. She usually did not like to talk in the group chat because their conversations were boring to her. However, it was the new year, so she joined in the action and wished them a happy new year. 

Initially, she was in an uplifted mood. But after a few people wished for her to retain youthfulness, specifically when Howard mentioned not growing wrinkles in the new year, her good mood was diminished. 

That was not the worst part. The worse was when she came across Lucas‘ Instagram story about the gifted watch after she 

exited the conversation. 

She thought, “It is just a lousy watch. What is there to show off? She did not believe that Lucas would actually take such a watch seriously with his level of wealth. 

“This must have been posted by the little bitch, Annabelle. It must be so,” she affirmed herself. 

However, when she returned to the group chat and scrolled through the chat history, she realized that Lucas did not deny that he was the one who posted the Instagram story. 

So, it was not that bitch who posted it using his phone? 

Yolanda was so pissed off she did not want to hear anything about it anymore and muted the group chat. 

Lucas did not accompany them in the group chat for too long. After chatting for a while, he exited the conversation because he remembered something very important. He immediately sent the few photos that he had carefully selected and edited to Annabelle. 

Annabelle did not forget to wish Nathan a happy new year. She was texting Nathan and chatting with him when she saw the photos Lucas sent. 

Annabelle was initially a little puzzled by them. She only came to a realization when she raised her head and met Lucas‘ 

gaze. 

*I’ll change it. I’ll change it. I’ll change it now!” Annabelle was very sensible. She saved the photos sent by Lucas to her gallery and slowly admired them. She planned to choose the best one for her wallpaper. 

Needless to say, her husband’s photo–editing skills were not bad at all. The edited photos were indeed much better than the original ones. They were especially high–end and classy. 

When Lucas saw Annabelle’s expression, he knew that he had done a great job. 

“Ha!” Lucas sneered on the inside. His attractiveness was indeed not inferior to Noah’s at all! 

“All right, it is getting fate. You should rest!” Lucas said after Annabelle set up the wallpaper on her phone. 

The excitement from before dissipated, and Annabelle also felt sleepy. Hearing Lucas’s words, she obediently bid farewell to Nathan, put down her phone, and prepared to go to bed. 

Lucas also put down his phone and lay down, pulling Annabelle into his arms. 

The firecrackers were still going off outside, but the people in the house were sleeping soundly. 

The next day, Annabelle woke up later than usual because she had gone to bed late the night before. She only tidied up and went downstairs at nearly ten in the morning. 

Just as she reached the stairs, she heard the sound of laughter downstairs. 

Annabelle went downstairs and saw many foreign faces in the living room. 

“Hey, this is Lucas‘ wife, right? You are so beautiful!” A middle–aged lady said to Annabelle with a smile. 

Annabelle did not know the person in front of her, but after hearing her praise, she still smiled in reply. 

“This is Mrs. Smith. You can call her Linda.” Mary was afraid Annabelle would be embarrassed in front of strangers, so she

immediately walked over and held Annabelle’s hand to introduce them to her. 

“This is Mrs. Littleton. You can call her Carly. Mary brought Annabelle to meet Carly Littleton, who was sitting beside Linda Smith. 

Annabelle had met Linda before when she attended the party at the Littleton’s with Lucas. 

“Happy New Year. Carly. Happy New Year, Linda!” Annabelle greeted the two of them sweetly. 

Linda was particularly fond of Annabelle. She liked how smiley and amiable Annabelle was. “Come, come sit here with me!” 

“She will join you later.” Mary beat Annabelle to it before she could say anything. “You guys sit here for a while. I have to make some breakfast for Annabelle!” 

“You have not eaten breakfast yet?” Linda was surprised. “Then go quickly. Don’t starve Annabelle and her child!” 

Mary could not help but laugh when she heard that. They were old friends who had known each other for decades, so Mary did not stand on ceremony with them and directly brought Annabelle to the dining room. She sat Annabelle down at the table and went to make breakfast for her. 

In the living room, Carly looked in their direction and could not resist the urge to complain. 

“Wifes nowadays have it easy. She does not have to do anything all day long, and she wakes up at noon, her mother–in–law has already prepared the food. When we were young, we were not this lucky!” 

Perhaps because of her daughter’s influence, Carly did not like Annabelle. When she spoke of Annabelle, it was inevitable that she would sound sarcastic. 

When Linda heard Carly’s words, she burst out laughing. “Why are you faking it in front of me? When you were young, did your mother–in–law make you suffer?” 

Carly rebutted, “I am just lamenting!” 

“Don’t be ridiculous!” Linda said. “As long as my son finds himself a wife and they have a few children, I will treat my daughter–in–law the best possible, not to mention cook for her!” 

Carly was speechless. 

In the other room, the young people were playing cards together. Some were playing, and some were watching. Lucas was playing. However, when he heard Annabelle’s voice, he couldn’t play anymore. He stood up and handed the cards in his hand to Benjamin. He went out to look for Annabelle himself. 

“Hey, look at Lucas. Other than Annabelle, is there anyone else in his eyes?” When Elizabeth said that, she deliberately leaned in front of Yolanda. 

Yolanda had no words.
