A Drunken Decision Cynthia Chapter 47
Chapter 47
Annabelle looked at the unfamiliar number on her phone. She first thought carefully and confirmed that she did not have any impression of it. Then, she picked up the call while feeling puzzled.
The call was from Elizabeth. Annabelle immediately recognized the voice. However, Annabelle was still very surprised that she would
call her.
Of course, Annabelle still wanted to do her best to be on good terms with Elizabeth, Lucas’s only sister, although the two of them did not quite hit it off well. However, before she could say anything, the person on the other end of the phone rambled on and said a long sentence. After saying that, she hung up without waiting for her reply.
Annabelle was speechless.
Listening to the beeping sound, Annabelle was speechless. However, she had no intention of getting to the bottom of it. She saved Elizabeth’s number and threw her phone aside. She even forgot that she had wanted to call someone before.
Meanwhile, on the Walker family’s side, Elizabeth showed her phone to the people in front of her. “Look, I’m not lying to you. Annabelle really doesn’t have time to come over! Let’s do it next time! When I’m free, I’ll ask him to bring Annabelle for a gathering!”
Last night, her cousin went home and told them about the fact that Lucas had secretly gotten married. The next morning, Mary returned home to explain this major matter to her side of the family. She was afraid that he would not be able to withstand her parents‘ anger alone, so she brought Lucas along.
Only Elizabeth, who had just lost her job, was left at home. Facing the sudden arrival of the crowd, she was still very welcoming at
first!
However, as she spoke, Elizabeth felt that something was wrong! What did all of them treat Annabelle as? They wanted to see her, so they wanted her to come over and let them take a look at her?
While thinking about that, Elizabeth did not forget to secretly roll her eyes at Yolanda, who was sitting quietly at the side.
Don’t think that she didn’t know that these men were all stupid. They were led in the direction by a few words from the other party. All of them hurriedly charged forward in panic, as if they were afraid that they would be despised by the Queen if they were a step
slower!
Elizabeth glanced at Howard, who had his gaze on Yolanda the entire time. Her eyes were rolling to the sky! He looked quite smart, but he was actually extremely stupid. He deserved to be used for the rest of his life!
Elizabeth retracted her gaze and smiled at Yolanda, who was still lingering around. “Yolanda, are you still used to life here now that you’ve just returned? I see fine lines at the corners of your eyes. Are you still jet–lagged? Did you not rest well?”
Women were very sensitive about their complexion and fine lines on their faces. When Elizabeth said this, Yolanda’s expression changed. There were a few straight men sitting beside her. After hearing Elizabeth’s words, they all came over to take a look.
“That’s right, that’s right. Is this the legendary crow’s feet? Do they grow when you can’t sleep well?” Josh leaned in front of Yolanda and pointed at the three lines at the end of Yolanda’s eyes as he asked in surprise.
Yolanda sat there stiffly. If not for the fact that she had to maintain her usual elegant and dignified image, she would have kicked him long ago and snapped, “Screw you and your crow’s feet!”
“Our company has a new skincare product that helps remove wrinkles. Shall I give you a set later?” Women really minded this. Howard thought that Yolanda must be very anxious about her skin now! There was no need to be afraid. Their company dealt in cosmetics and so, he was very knowledgeable in this aspect.
“Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and send more to Yolanda! At this age, we have to take care of ourselves!”
Elizabeth looked at Yolanda’s morose face and held back her laughter until her stomach hurt. She could not stand this person. It was fine if a girl gathered in front of a group of boys every day and coaxed them until they were head–over–heels. After all, they were willing parties. But why did she come to her to make her presence known?
Elizabeth recalled that when she was young, Yolanda fought with her for favor in front of Noah. Fortunately, although Noah was not good at judging people, he drew a clear line. He did not teach her a lesson just because of this woman’s tricks. The other younger girls were not as lucky as her. For example, Hazel, Howard’s younger sister, had been scolded by Howard countless times because of
Yolanda!
The thought of it made Elizabeth furious again. Such a man should be single for the rest of his life. She didn’t want to like him!

Chapter 47
“Yes, women should take care of their skin starting from the age of 25!” Howard nodded and said seriously, “I’ll bring some for you! too! It’s time for you to use them! Also, does Annabelle… need them?”
“Bring some for her too!” Yolanda said with a smile. Yolanda still did not know what kind of woman Lucas had married. However, it was better to be happy alone than to be happy together. As for maintenance, everyone should take care of their skin together!
In fact, she had never neglected taking care of her skin. It was just taking care of it, not changing her skin. He was almost touching her face to take a look. No matter how well she took care of her skin, she could not stand having someone scrutinize it like this.
“Lucas’s wife is still pregnant. Pregnant women have very poor skin complexion! Find some skincare products that won’t affect pregnant women for her…” Yolanda said gently to Howard.
Howard nodded vigorously. He felt that Yolanda was really very understanding!
When Elizabeth saw this, she humphed coldly in her heart. It was obvious what this bad woman and stupid man were thinking!
However… they were going to be disappointed!
Elizabeth thought of Annabelle’s delicate face which was so fair that it was almost glowing. She was also very impressed!
Who said that pregnant women had ugly skin? Some people are just born beautiful!
Besides, as a woman in her late twenties, she couldn’t understand the natural advantage of a young girl in her early twenties.
However, Elizabeth told Yolanda that some things were not as impactful as hearing it with one’s own eyes.
She was really looking forward to the expression on this old man’s face when he saw her family’s Annabelle!
At the thought of this, Elizabeth suddenly felt that it was best for Lucas to marry Annabelle!
Otherwise, if she married Yolanda, she would be in tears.
Because of Yolanda, Elizabeth made up her mind to treat Annabelle better in the future, even though… every time she went against Annabelle, she would not be able to get anything good out of it.
“I’ll thank Howard on behalf of Annabelle first!” Elizabeth said with a fake smile.
Howard hurriedly waved his hand. “It’s just a small matter. It’s what I should do!”
Not only did Yolanda not gain anything from this trip, but she also faced a lot of embarrassment. She did not want to stay here for a moment longer, let alone see these blockheads!
“I’m still a little tired, so I’ll go back and get some rest first. Let’s meet again when we’re free!” Yolanda stood up and bid farewell to
everyone.
“I’ll send you back!” Howard hurriedly stood up and said gently.
“No need!” Yolanda rejected quickly. She did not want to see them at all now. After saying that, she was afraid that her tone would be too hostile, so she quickly tried to salvage the situation. “I’m going back to my family’s manor. It’s just a short walk from here. I’ll be there in a while. Don’t you still have something to do? Go ahead!”
