Chapter 1149 I Was Fine
Being pressured by his sister, David could do nothing.
Since he was together with Shania, his sister, Maisie, had never spoken up for him.
In her eyes, Shania was always right and he was always wrong, giving him an illusion that he was not her biological brother.
“I’m sorry, and I’m leaving, okay?”
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the opposite apartment.
He had no control over each of them.
He could do nothing with his wife or his sister.
Shania happily hugged Maisie. She grew up abroad, and Riverside City was a completely strange city to her, but she lived here with David. In fact, this decision put her through a lot.
However, after she came to Riverside City, she felt incomparably warm and moved because of the support and care given by Maisie all the time, and the sense of strangeness and loneliness she had also faded gradually.
Now she felt that she was living a happy life in this city. She had her beloved man, and her warm family, and now she had a few female friends who could talk with her. Thus, she was very contented.
Her parents planned to go back to Riverside City after retirement, then she would be happier.
In fact, her parents were from Chiobar. They went abroad to study when they were young and then stayed there. However, as their homeland was Chiobar, they had a stronger urge to return home as they got older.
Now she settled in Riverside City. It was also a reason for their coming back.
After returning to his residence, David told Ezra and the other men, “Just wash up and go to bed. They don’t let me in now.”
Evidently, those women opened the door for David several times as a courtesy.
But now, they were all drunk, having a private talk, and complaining about men. It was inappropriate for David to be present, so he was shut out.
They chatted happily. It should be the happiest party they had. All of them found an outlet to vent their feelings.
They ate, drank, and chatted until midnight. Then they all fell asleep on the sofa except Shania, whose home was opposite. Though she was drunk, she still worried about her husband, so she ran home.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
It could be imagined that David had a terrible night. He carried his drunk wife to the bathroom, gave her a bath, and made some honey water to sober her up. Later, he had to stand the noises made by his drunk wife.
The next morning, he went downstairs and bought a variety of brekkie for those women. It could be seen that he was indeed a good husband, brother, and friend.
“Thank you.” Maisie yawned, answered the door to get the breakfast, and expressed thanks.
After thinking for a while, she asked, “Was I too harsh on you last night?”
In fact, Maisie had been a gentle and tolerant sister for so many years. But somehow, since he was with Shania, she always felt him annoying.
She was strict with him perhaps out of her love for him. She hoped that David and Shania would live happily, so she always stuck up for Shania.
David snorted, “It doesn’t matter. I’m used to being treated that way. Anyway, now Shania is your closest family, not me.”
Maisie was speechless.
After saying that, David turned around and went back to his house.
Maisie who had a hangover massaged her forehead. Then she took the breakfast back to her apartment for her friends.
Knowing that the breakfast was bought by David, Jean couldn’t help laughing and saying, “Wow, David is so considerate.”
Anya echoed, “Of course, otherwise, Shania wouldn’t be fascinated by him or come to Riverside City with him.”
When Anya mentioned Shania, Emelia looked around and asked, “Where is Shania?”
They just got up and each had a quick wash. Then they saw Maisie coming in with breakfast.
Maisie laughed, “Her husband is in the house opposite. Of course, she has gone back to sleep with him.”
As soon as she finished her words, they couldn’t help laughing happily.
While they were talking, the doorbell rang again. Maisie went to open the door and found it was Shania.
With a plate in her hand and wearing pajamas, she rushed in enthusiastically. “Hey, I’m coming to have breakfast with you.”
As she spoke, she came to the table and sat down.
Jean took a look at the sandwich in Shania’s hand and asked, “Why is your breakfast different from ours?”
David bought them sandwiches, bread, and other food, different from the food on Shania’s plate.
She said with an embarrassed look, “My… my breakfast was cooked by David…”
As soon as she finished her words, they burst into laughter, throwing jealous looks at her on purpose.
“Shania grew up abroad. She is not used to having Chiobar’s food. So basically, David cooks homemade food for her every day,” Maisie explained.
With a sweet smile on her face, Shania said, “It’s not that I can’t get used to it. I like Chiobar’s spicy food very much.”
“But David said it was not good to have spicy food every day, so he cooked for me. But now I like having Chiobar’s food. I gotta say that Chiobar’s food is so delicious.”
Everyone laughed again. Knowing that Shania liked Chiobar’s spicy food, they decided to have some spicy food some other day.
After breakfast, they went back to their own houses. After all, most of them had children at home who needed to be taken care of, and some of them had to go to work.
After having a good time, Anya packed up her things and got ready to go to the hospital to visit Lorie.
When she arrived in Riverside City yesterday, it was a bit late and Lorie had gone to bed, so she didn’t go there at that time.
She hailed a taxi and got to the hospital.
With the nurse’s help, Lorie sat in a wheelchair and waited for Anya in the garden of the hospital.
She had an acceptable recovery, gradually regaining the ability to move and speak.
Tears streamed down her cheeks as soon as Anya saw Lorie, and so did Lorie. She couldn’t help but shed tears when she thought that her daughter had suffered from a premature delivery.
They fell into each other’s arms and cried on each other’s shoulders in the quiet garden. Then Anya stood up and spoke slowly.
The nurse left when Anya arrived. At this moment, Anya wiped her tears and pushed Lorie to a bench aside. Lorie motioned to Anya to sit on the bench and talk with her.
Premature birth would impair women’s health. Lorie was clear about it, so she tried her best to not make Anya tired.
“I’m not that weak. Don’t worry.” Sitting on the bench, Anya gave words of consolation to Lorie.
“I have been taking the Chiobar’s herb prescribed by Abigail, Arthur’s mother. I’ll go to her and she’ll make another prescription for me. I believe she will make me get better.”
Though her daughter looked fine, her eyes were red-rimmed again.
She had given birth to a baby before, so she knew how horrible it was for a woman to give birth to a baby. What was worst, Anya was forced to have C-section in advance under that circumstance.
“My good girl…” Lorie was still recovering and could not say much, so she could only raise her hand to rub Anya’s head and say a few words gently.
