A Drunken Decision ( Annabelle Ross )

Chapter 70 

When Annabelle heard Lucas’s words, she quickly waved her hand. She thought it was something much more serious and comforted him, “It’s okay! They won’t bully me again. Besides, I made a new friend today. I’m very happy!” 

She was really happy to have a like–minded friend! 

Lucas pinched her face, but he made up his mind. No matter what she said, he would never leave her alone again. 

Howard and the others were playing cards, so he did not notice Lucas’s message. He played until two in the morning before Howard remembered Hazel. He searched everywhere, but he couldn’t find her. 

The Littleton family’s maid told him that she didn’t see Hazel today, nor was she staying overnight with the Littleton family. As for the master of the Littleton family, he had already gone to bed since it was too late. 

“Let’s ask Yolanda!” Josh suggested when he saw Howard’s angry and desperate look. He felt that it wasn’t too big of a problem. Hazel was no longer a child. She might have gone home alone. Although their family didn’t live here, there was also the Ross manor over here. Perhaps Hazel had returned 

to the Ross manor. 

“No need!” Howard rejected the suggestion without thinking. What time was it now? Yolanda must be asleep. How could he wake her from her sleep? 

“Then call Hazel!” Irving said. It was only two o’clock at dawn. To him, it was not too late. “You’ll know once you ask!” 

Only then did Howard remember that he still had a phone, so he went to look for his phone. But he realized that his phone had run out of battery! 

“Forget it, forget it. I’ll call Hazel!” Seeing this, Josh took out his phone and called Hazel. 

The call went through, but no one picked up. After a while, his phone was shut down too! 

“My phone’s dead!” Josh put down his phone and looked at Howard as he muttered. 

Howard was really angry. If Hazel was in front of him, she would definitely receive a good scolding from him, 

“Call uncle and ask if Hazel has gone back!” Irwing noticed Howard’s ashen face and quickly comforted him, “You can’t blame Hazel for this. We were so engrossed in playing that we forgot the time. The party downstairs has long ended. Don’t tell me you want Hazel to wait for us?” 

“Can’t she come up and tell me that she’s leaving?” Howard said with a dark expression. 

Even so, he still asked Josh to call Timothy 

Yolanda, though, had just left the room, her coat slung over her shoulders. She looked confused when she spotted them waiting and asked, “Is the party over? Are you still going back today? Don’t go. It’s too late. Rest here and you can leave tomorrow morning” 

Howard felt that he must have been too loud just now and ended up waking Yolanda. He immediately felt extremely guilty. At the same time, he was even angrier at Ashley. 

All of this trouble occurred due to her selfishness. 

“No, I’m going back to the Ross manor to rest!” Inwing was the first to speak out. The Ross manor was nearby, and the Ross manor was just a short walking distance away. There was no one else living there, so he didn’t have to worry about disturbing anyone in the middle of the night. “By the way, Yolanda, do you know where Hazel went?” 

Yolanda frowned at the sound of Haze’s name. Then, she replied, “Hazel left with Ms. Rooss. Didn’t she say that she’d told Howard about this?” 

These words completely ignited Howard’s anger. He immediately gritted his teeth and said, “When did she tell me?” 

“Alright, alright. Don’t be angry anymore. She’s still young. Don’t bother so much about this. Perhaps she forgot to tell you!” Yolanda persuaded gently. 

However, these words did not appease Howard. Instead, he became even angrier. Young? 24 years old and she was still considered young? 

“That’s it!” Looking at Howard’s angry expression, Josh patted his shoulder. “It’s good that now you know that she left with Annabelle. I’ll sleep at Irving’s place! What about you?” 

This topic immediately calmed Howard down. He sneaked a glance at Yolanda. Seeing her smiling gently at him, Howard immediately became shy. He wanted to stay, but he didn’t dare to do it. He hesitated and decided to go with Josh and Irving. 

“Yolanda, go back and rest. We’ll leave first. Don’t worry, we’ll lock the door properly!” Josh waved at Yolanda and said seriously. 

“Alright then!” Yolanda smiled. “Don’t go on knocking at the wrong door!” 

After saying that, she reminded Howard as if she was worried, “You better not be angry and scold Hazel tomorrow. Hazel is still young and there are many things that she doesn’t understand yet. You should talk to her properly as a brother!” 

Howard, who had already forgotten about Hazel, became angry again when he heard her words. He made up his mind to deal with Hazel, this troublesome sister of his, tomorrow. However, in front of Yolanda, Howard remained calm and acted in agreeing with her. 

Yolanda led the three of them out of the house. Initially, she wanted to send them out of the courtyard, but the three of them said that it was too cold outside and refused to let her go out. 

The next day, Noah was picked up by his assistant and started his busy life again. Annabelle didn’t plan to leave today because of Elizabeth and Hazel.

Chapter 70 

The elderly of the Walker family were naturally very happy that she could stay. Donald and Susan had no opinion against this and were happy to see the young people talking. 

Lucas saw that Annabelle was quite happy staying here, so he didn’t rush her. Instead of going to the company, he worked remotely in the study room. 

upstairs. 

Howard arrived at the Walker’s at ten o’clock. When he saw Hazel, he went out on a rant of fury at her before she could say anything. 

The smiling Hazel was instantly scolded to tears by her own brother! 

Elizabeth and Hazel were good friends, so it was natural that she couldn’t bear standing by for Hazel to be scolded like this. 

“I am talking to my sister. What does it have to do with you?” Howard was so angry that he said such words. After he was done, he realized that he had gone too far. But, a man’s pride usually prevented him from putting his face down to pay for his error, even if he was aware of it. 

Elizabeth was so angry that she could barely breathe. How… How did he become like this? 

Annabelle looked at her new friend crying sadly and Elizabeth’s face turned red with anger. She immediately demanded, “Don’t lose your temper in our house! If you have anything to say, please calm down first.” 

Howard went silent. 

Howard was already terrified. He noticed Donald and Susan’s disapproving look from a distance. Since he wasn’t their grandson, they wouldn’t say anything to him about this despite how wrong his actions were. 

They felt that Annabelle was right. If they had anything to say, they could talk about it after calming down. 

Howard opened his mouth, but in the end, he kept quiet.. 

Elizabeth and Annabelle ignored him and went to comfort Hazel, who was still in tears.. 

However, just as Howard walked out of the Walker’s, he saw Yolanda coming over. He immediately didn’t bother to hesitate and quickly walked toward her.
