Liliana Davis took a deep breath, controlling her emotions.
"If you still consider your mother, from now on, don’t ntion Vera Wave to ever again!"
Nathan Leafcastle’s hands, hanging by his side, slowly clenched and then released.
"Fine, I won’t ntion it. I will never bring it up again!"
Turning around, he stord out of his mother’s room, stomping quickly down the stairs.
"Nathan?"
Sally Dalton ca out after changing clothes, only catching a glimpse of his back before turning to look, seeing Liliana Davis standing at the door with tears in her eyes. She was startled and hurried over.
"Auntie, what’s going on? What... What happened with you two?"
Bang!
From downstairs, the sound of Nathan Leafcastle slamming the door heavily was heard, followed by the car engine starting and swiftly driving away.
"That kid!" Liliana Davis heard the sound and angrily shouted, "He drank alcohol, how can he drive like that!"
Saying this, she rushed towards the hallway, running too fast, her body swayed, almost falling.
"Auntie!" Sally Dalton caught up and supported her arm, "Don’t worry, I’ll go find him. Rest assured, I’ll definitely bring him back safe."
Liliana Davis raised a hand to her chest, "Quickly go, make sure to bring him back, don’t let anything happen!"
"Alright!"
Sally Dalton didn’t care about changing her clothes, grabbed a handbag and hurried downstairs, picked up the car keys, switched her shoes, and rushed out the door.
Driving the car, she chased out of the neighborhood, but Nathan Leafcastle’s figure was nowhere to be seen.
She hit the steering wheel with her hand, thought for a mont, then steered the car to the right.
...
...
Engagent party.
As ti went on, the guests gradually began to leave.
Finally, after sending Kenton Maverick and Andre Colin and others away, the party finally ca to a complete end.
Watching the elevator doors close tightly, Vera Wave slightly pouted her lips, letting out a sigh of relief.
After a whole night of socializing, she was extrely tired by now.
"Tired?"
Bailey Hansen turned her face, asking warmly.
"A little." Vera Wave replied with a smile, "I almost forgot to say, Auntie, your dress looks stunning today."
"To wear this dress, I haven’t dared to eat much all evening!" Bailey Hansen patted her belly, "I’m starving now, how about... we find a place to have so late-night snacks?"
"Sure, sure!"
Vera Wave, being a little food lover, imdiately agreed.
There was food and drink at the banquet, but with all the greetings and farewells, who had the appetite to eat? Moreover, after all this commotion, even if you ate, it’d have been digested away.
Christoper Cooper took off his suit jacket, "It’s been a long ti since I had barbecue, how about... we go have so skewers?"
Bailey Hansen imdiately laughed and hugged his arm, "I was just thinking the sa!"
Vera Wave widened her eyes, "You’re going to eat barbecue?"
"You don’t like it?" Bailey Hansen asked.
Vera Wave imdiately shook her head, "Of course I like it, I just didn’t expect... you guys to eat this too?"
Originally, she hadn’t really eaten it before, but after the family’s downfall, she ate it a few tis with Isla Hawskin, and fell in love with the taste.
"We’re not gods!" Bailey Hansen imdiately pulled her arm, "Let tell you, there’s a shop that’s super nice and unbelievably cheap, a whole lamb leg is only 78... Oh... I can’t stand it, I’m drooling already... Let’s go, let’s go now!"
So, the four of them, still dressed in their formal wear and suits, headed straight to Bailey Hansen’s favorite old shop.
