A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )

A Drunken Decision Cynthia Chapter 38



Chapter 38 

When Madeline saw that Annabelle really came alone, her face immediately turned sullen. 

Seeing that Annabelle was about to call her, she turned around and left without looking at her. 

Seeing this, Annabelle quickly shut her mouth and sat obediently on the sofa. 

After a while, Ashley rushed back from the company. When she didn’t see the person she wanted to see at home, she couldn’t hide the disappointment on her face. 

Madeline’s heart ached when she saw her daughter like this. However, she did not say anything and only made a decision from her heart. 

The atmosphere during lunch was neither warm nor awkward. Nathan was the only one who ate happily and did not forget to put food into Annabelle’s bowl from time to time. 

Ashley was in a daze and had no appetite at all. Madeline felt sorry for her daughter while looking at the two heartless people. She was so angry that her heart ached. 

Alter finally making it through lunch, Madeline chased Annabelle away. 

Nathan wanted to follow Annabelle, but he was stopped by Madeline. 

Annabelle did not know what Madeline wanted to say to him. Intuition was not a good thing 

As it turned out, her intuition was accurate. 

The first thing she said made her feel helpless. 

“Divorce Lucas immediately! Let your sister, Ashley, have him!” 

Annabelle carefully sized up Madeline, as if to confirm if she was joking with her. Madeline had a serious expression on her face and did not show any signs of joking. However, if it was not a joke, how could she say such a thing? 

“Mom…” 

“I know you have many reasons to reject me!” Madeline interrupted Annabelle. 

“Annabelle, tell me, in the past 23 years, have your father and I ever mistreated you?” Madeline looked at Annabelle and asked expressionlessly. 

“No!” Annabelle said with a bitter smile. “You’re all very good to me!” It was because they treated her so well that she would receive such a drastic change in treatment after Ashley returned. She had indeed fallen to the doldrums. 

Annabelle looked at her mother, Madeline. So? Did she want to use these 23 years of kindness to get her to divorce Lucas? 

“Since you were young, we always gave you whatever you wanted!” Madeline looked at her and said calmly, “All these years, we have never asked you to do anything! Today, as your mother, I beg you, please give Lucas to your sister! Ashley…” 

“Mom!” Annabelle interrupted Madeline. “Let’s not talk about whether Lucas is an item or not. Just based on my current situation, I still have two babies in my womb. Have you ever thought about what will happen to these two babies if I divorce Lucas?” 

Although she was already used to Madeline’s cold treatment, Annabelle still couldn’t help but feel sad. 

She admitted that Ashley had indeed suffered a lot out there, but she did not cause these sufferings. Why should she bear the consequences? 

“You don’t have to worry about that!” Madeline could not feel Annabelle’s discomfort at all. She was still trying her best to persuade her. “Ashley is your sister. Your children will be her children. As long as you leave Lucas, Ashley will definitely treat these two children as her own!” 

As for whether he could do it, Madeline thought to herself. Who knew at that time? 

When Annabelle heard this, she felt that it was ridiculous. 

“Mom, I don’t agree!” Armabelle said crisply. “I won’t let my children leave my side. I also promised Lucas that I would manage this marriage well and build a healthy and loving home for my children!” 

“Annabelle, don’t be so selfish!” Madeline said with a cold face and a sharp tone, “the Ross family raised you up and gave you everything you wanted. Now, we’re asking you to do just one simple thing for the Ross family. Are you unwilling?” 

“Mom, if you want me to do anything else, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not oppose. But this matter really can’t do. Besides, I’m also part of the Ross family. I…” 

“You’re not!” Madeline snapped. After she blurted it, Madeline was also stunned. 

Annabelle was dumbfounded too. Her face was pale as she looked at Madeline. She could not recover from her shock. “Mom, what… did you mean by that just now?” 

Annabelle thought of her brother, Nathan. So, she wasn’t actually her parents‘ biological child. Did they adopt her from the orphanage? 

However, that thought only lasted for a moment before it dissipated. If she was really adopted, her grandfather wouldn’t have given her 20% of the Ross Group’s shares after she was born. She still remembered how Donald liked her so much. 

Nathan was adopted but her grandfather and parents doted on him. He was given a lot of pocket money, but he had never owned any of the Ross 

pter be Group’s shares. 

So, Madeline was lying to her just to convince her to divorce Lucas, right? 

Yes, that must be it! 

“Mom, I’ll be filial to you and Dad in the future. I’ll support you in your old age, but i won’t get a divorce!” After saying that, Annabelle wanted to leave. She really didn’t want to stay for a moment longer and didn’t want to say a word to Madeline. 

Only she knew how afraid she was of Madeline saying that she was not their child. 

“Annabelle!” Madeline came back to her senses. The panic from before disappeared completely because of Annabelle’s rejection. “You’re not our daughter, to begin with. You’re just a substitute for Ashley! We raised you, fed you, clothed you, and gave you money to spend. You owe us this! You can’t repay us enough for the rest of your life. I don’t want you to spend the rest of your life repaying us. I just want you to do this. Divorce Lucas and give him to Ashley. Then, you won’t owe the Ross family anything anymore!” 

“No!” Annabelle couldn’t help but cry. She didn’t believe what Madeline said. She strongly believed that she belonged to the Ross family and that she was their child. She was sure that their love for her wasn’t fake. “Mom, don’t be like this! Don’t be like this! Ashley is your child, and so am I Since Ashley has been through suffering, you can love her more. You can be fierce to me, but don’t say such things again. I…” 

“Do you think I’m lying to you?” Madeline looked at her miserable expression and could not help but think of her Darling Ashley! Thinking of how. Ashley did not eat or drink for that man, she suddenly felt a secret pleasure in her heart. “I’ve only given birth to one child in my life, and that was Ashley. It was just that a vicious person swapped her with a dead baby! At that time, I felt like the sky had collapsed, and I wished I could die with Ashley! You came to our house at that time! I treated you well only because I took you for Ashley!”
