Chapter 1002 Brother-in-Law
David was clear that Shania was not to bring up old scores again when she mentioned how cold-hearted he was. She mentioned those unhappy memories just because she was drunken, so David comforted her gently.
He really overstepped the marks at that time. So, even if Shania mentioned those things when she was awake, he would not stop her. He admitted he was wrong at that time. He felt he had atoned for what he had done to Shania.
Hearing his apology, Shania gently snorted and said nothing. Then she went on to chat with Maisie.
Suddenly, David felt that something was wrong, because he heard Shania, who was completely drunken, told Maisie, “To tell the truth, if David refused to marry me, I had something on him.”
“What?” Maisie was puzzled. Ezra and David looked at Shania curiously.
Shania smiled and explained, “In fact, I asked my friends to come to the hotel that morning. They put their phones in my room and turned on the video. As soon as David and I entered the room, they started to video what we did, including our sex. So, David had to marry me whether he loved me or not.”
Ezra couldn’t help but laugh out loud, which made David stare at him with clenched teeth. Why did he laugh that way? Was it funny?
“Fortunately, he agreed to marry me, so I let my friends go. It seemed there was no need for me to do like that.” Shania, who was drunken, went on saying, without considering how David felt.
David was forced to listen to her. He had never thought she would play tricks and let her friends to “catch them”. Of course, she did it because she loved him and wanted to marry him, but it seemed it was not proper to mention it now. It made him embarrassed, right?
Ezra was here, who would laugh at him.
Maisie also laughed out loud when hearing Shania’s words. Nobody would blame Shania, who just wanted to marry David eagerly. In fact, Shania was quite cute in Maisie’s eyes.
She put in a good word for her brother, “David must be extremely happy when he knew you wanted to marry him. How could he disagree?”
In fact, it was also David’s intention from the bottom of his heart.
Then David said, “Of course I was extremely happy. You know I was worried that you would not forgive me.”
David then pulled Shania back. What was wrong? It seemed Shania, exactly, his wife now, liked his sister more than him.
What was more, Ezra didn’t want her to hold Maisie all the time, right?
David held the drunken Shania into his arms, looking at Maisie and saying, “We will go back home tomorrow.”
“What?” Maisie was surprised. Exactly, she was astonished.
David and Shania had been to the civil affairs bureau and got their marriage certificates after landing on the Riverside City. Everything went on smoothly for all the materials needed had been prepared in advance. Maisie saw with her own eyes their marriage certificates.
She felt glad for them. But they had just been married for such a short time and didn’t know each other’s family well. Could Shania cope with it if she went with David back home and visited their parents?
Everybody knew their parents were difficult to get along with.
“I suggested to go back tomorrow.” Shania said, lying in David’s arms. Although she was drunken, she tried her best to stick up for David.
“Anyway, we will pay a visit to them sooner or later. The earlier we visit them, the earlier David and I can come back and enjoy our life, right?” Shania said, putting her arms around David’s waist.
Maisie didn’t expect Shania was such a cheerful person, but she was still worried. So, she asked, “Do they know about you have married?”
“No.” David replied.
He didn’t plan to tell it to them. In his eyes, there was no need. Without caring much about his parents, he planned to tell them the news after they reached there.
Shania said, “We plan to tell it to them when we are back and meet them. Anyway, we have been married, so it doesn’t matter whether they agree or not.”
“That’s OK.” Maisie nodded, “But …”
“I know what you worry about. Just rest your heart, Maisie. I’m not a coward.” Shania said, full of mettle. David, who seemed to appreciate Shania very much, smiled.
At first, Maisie worried that Shania couldn’t deal with their parents who were always unreasonable. When seeing the relaxed expressions on their face, she set her mind at rest.
Without saying anything more, she raised her glass of wine and gave her best wishes, “Then I wish you all the best.”
“Thanks.” Shania drunk off the wine before David could stop her.
Seeing Maisie also polished off her wine, Ezra held her hand and said in a low voice, “That’s enough, OK?”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Well, Ezra knew quite well that it was better to stop Maisie when she was a little drunken. He got this experience after Maisie was drunken several times.
If she was slightly drunken, she would become very gentle and cute, and act like a spoiled child. Of course, he could make love with her to his heart’s content.
If she was completely drunken, she would lose her mind and did something that he couldn’t stand. For example, she drove him out of the house last time.
And he had to take care of her if she drunk too much. She would be uncomfortable, or vomit sometimes, which made him crazy.
So, Ezra wanted to stop Maisie now. It was the right time.
If Maisie stopped, he would have a wonderful night then.
But what he did made Shania unhappy. Raising the wine trembly, Shania said to him, “My dear brother, it’s the first time that Maisie and I get together. So, we will drink to our heart’s content.”
Ezra was hesitated to stop Maisie when hearing Shania called him “dear brother” sweetly. Compared with David who had never called him “brother”, it was more comfortable to get on with the honey-mouthed Shania.
Shania gave Maisie another glass of wine while Ezra was thinking silently. Then Maisie pushed Ezra away and began to drink like a fish.
Ezra glanced at David angrily, thinking he would regret it if he didn’t try to stop them. He would miss a wonderful night since he had no intention to stop Shania.
They two would be completely drunken if they went on drinking like that. It would be really hard work to look after them then, for they were sure to be noisy and vomit everywhere.
With a lot of pent-up discontentment to release, Ezra teased, “Come on, call me brother, David”
David gave him a cold smile, “Brother-in-law.”
Ezra, who didn’t expect David would call him “brother”, was so astonished that he was choked by the wine in his mouth and began to cough violently. Who knew the damned David would call him brother!
Trying to stop the cough, he said dismissively, “Sounds good. And you don’t have to call me “brother” in the future.”
