Filed to story: I Got Married Without You
Seeing the hickeys, even Rosalyn, who was slow to catch on, knew what had happened to Eva.
“Mandy, have you been breeding a lot of mosquitoes recently? How did my Eva get bitten like that?”
Unable to hold back, Mandy burst into laughter. At the same time, there was a sound coming from the master bedroom bathroom, and Rosalyn instinctively looked up. Rosalyn asked, “Tell me who’s inside.”
Eva pointed her freshly manicured finger and poked Rosalyn’s shoulder. “You’re asking just to tease me…”
Rosalyn, who knew she was being teased, laughed. “Oh, so it’s Paul…”
At this moment, Paul, wrapped in a towel, walked confidently to the floor-to-ceiling window…
The man downstairs in the Converse sneakers raised his cold, icy gaze and looked in the direction of the window, just in time to see his younger brother standing in front of the window.
With his hands on his hips, he had a proud look on his face, as if he wanted to tell the whole world that he had a wonderful night with Eva.
Andrew stared at him for two seconds, rolled his eyes, and then pressed the button to roll up the car window, isolating everything outside.
Paul also saw Andrew’ car and quickly turned around, took out his own phone from his pants pocket, and called his older brother. He wanted to share the good news with Andrew.Upon receiving a call from Paul, Andrew, expressionless, extended his slender finger and pressed the end call button. Unwilling to accept being hung up on, Paul called again.
Andrew’s face darkened as he answered the call. Without waiting for Paul to speak, a furious roar came from the other end: “Get lost!” One word shattered Paul’s desire to share. After furrowing his brows in thought, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Andrew.
“Andrew, I’m at Eva’s house and I have no clothes to wear. Can you bring a set for me?”
Glancing at the screen of his phone, Andrew couldn’t help but tighten his fist… Paul waited for a few minutes but didn’t receive a response. He picked up his phone again and opened the family group chat, mentioning Andrew.
“Andrew, please look at my message.”
Andrew: …
No one replied, so Paul mentioned all members of the group. “Please mention Andrew for me, I need to talk to him urgently.” Sebastian asked with concern, “What’s the urgent matter?” Paul, seeing someone respond, quickly typed, “I’m getting married.”
Why does it concern Andrew if he’s getting married? Sebastian couldn’t understand, but Andrew did. He just wanted to show off.
Suddenly, Paul saw a message from Andrew: “Remove Paul from the group.”
As the group admin, Rebecca seemed to sense Andrew’s speechlessness and considerately removed Paul from the group chat.
Being kicked out of the group didn’t bother Paul at all. After taking a selfie, he opened his Moments and posted a message, mentioning each member of the family. “I’m getting married. Does anyone have a proposal plan? Please send it to me.”
In the group without Paul, Christopher sent a message: “What’s wrong with Paul?”
Sebastian: “Did he take the wrong medication?”
Leonard: “Paul must have taken the wrong medication. Who would marry him:
Even the usually invisible Miles joined in with a message: “If he can get married, I’ll cut off my head and use it as a stool for him.” Andrew scrolled through the messages in the group, and Paul’s call came in again…
This time, instead of hanging up, Andrew calmly answered, “If it’s not important, I’ll break your legs.”
Feeling great, Paul didn’t care about Andrew’s hostility and continued to show off, “Andrew, I’m getting married.”
Andrew coldly responded, “So what?”
Paul kicked the glass of the French window with his toe, “Can I borrow your Jmissa?”
Andrew’s blue eyes turned icy, “If you want to die, just say so.”
After thinking for a moment, Paul also realized it wasn’t appropriate, “Forget it, your proposal venue is a bit shabby. I want to choose the best place for Eva, something she’ll never forget.”
So, his intention wasn’t to borrow the venue from Andrew, but to let him know that he was proposing and that his proposal location and ceremony would be more grand than Andrew’s. Andrew couldn’t help rolling his eyes, “Has Ms. Miller agreed?”
This made Paul, who was uncertain, vague in his reply, “She kind of agreed.”
Hearing this, Andrew knew Eva hadn’t agreed. With a hint of mockery in his unfathomable gaze, he said, “You’re making it public before she even accepts. Aren’t you afraid of rejection?”
Confidently patting his chest, Paul said, “No matter what, I will win her over this time. Andrew, just wait for my good news!”
Andrew’s lips curled up, a mischievous smile forming, “Have you informed your parents?”
A seemingly casual remark instantly brought Paul, who had been showing off, back to reality. He no longer felt like bragging in front of Andrew.
Staring at Andrew’s profile picture on the screen for a while, Paul gritted his teeth, “I’ll go back tonight and let them know the good news.”
Andrew hadn’t expected Paul to think this way. His lips curled up slightly, revealing a deeper smile. It seemed that Paul was serious this time. If he was willing to settle down and focus on his family, Andrew would naturally be happy for him. However, Paul’s parents would not make it easy for him, especially considering what Edith had gone through. Hopefully, they would let Paul off the hook…
While Andrew considered things carefully, Paul’s mind was still focused on showing off. “Andrew, are you going to send the clothes or not? If not, I’ll find Rosalyn.”
The man in the car raised his cold gaze and glanced at Paul, who was standing by the French window, wrapped only in a towel.
“Dare you!”
Paul knew he was being scrutinized and twisted his muscular body, “Do you think I dare…?”
Now that he had a wife to support him, did he still fear Andrew?
In reality, his wife was also afraid of Andrew, but not Rosalyn.
Andrew listened to Rosalyn, Rosalyn listened to Eva. If he could get Eva, he would have all the power in his hands. Why would he still be afraid?
With the logic sorted out, Paul took a bold move and hung up the phone before turning around.
In the moment Paul turned around, Andrew, who was agile, quickly pushed open the car door.
Just as the master bedroom door was opened, Rosalyn turned her head and hadn’t seen what was coming out yet when her eyes were covered by a big hand.
Then, a cold and pleasant voice came into her ears, “Don’t look, you’ll go blind.”
With her eyes covered, Rosalyn smiled to herself. Was her husband afraid that she would see Paul’s revealing clothes?
But…if just one look would make her go blind, then what about Eva?
When Eva saw Paul suddenly appear, her face turned as red as an apple. She rushed over, pushing Paul back into the room while complaining, “Didn’t I tell you to stay inside? How did you come out?”
Paul frowned, “I’m not some disgusting thing that will hurt your eyes. Why can’t I come out? Besides-
Before he could finish his sentence, he was forcefully pushed back into the room by the strong Eva. After locking him inside, Eva grabbed the doorknob, turned around, and looked at the couple. “We didn’t do anything last night, do you believe us?”
Andrew had no expression on his face as he looked at her…
Eva, feeling uncomfortable being stared at, quickly changed the subject, “Rosalyn, how about we go to the living room?”
When Rosalyn heard this, she quickly poked her head out from between Andrew’ hands and said, “Sure-“
Eva, who casually suggested in an attempt to ease the awkwardness, thought Rosalyn would say that they wouldn’t disturb them today and would leave first. Who knew she would say “Sure.”
Helpless, Eva covered her face and ran downstairs, saying,
“Follow me…”
Laughing, Rosalyn said, “Honey, I’ll just say a few words to Eva and then I’ll go to the car to wait for me…”
Andrew’ cold and indifferent eyes stared firmly at the master bedroom door, “You go, I’ll stay here and wait for Paul to come out The man eavesdropping at the door, hearing this sinister voice, decided that he would rather die than go out-
In the guest area, Rosalyn and Eva sat on the sofa, staring at each other.
After staring at each other for a while, Rosalyn broke the ice first, “Did you make up with Paul?” Eva, who was still blushing, smiled awkwardly again, “No, I just accidentally drank too much, and then…”
Understanding, Rosalyn nodded, “How is it?”
Eva thought Rosalyn was asking how she felt, so she quickly shook her head, “Not good, it happened too many times, and it’s a bit uncomfortable…”
Rosalyn laughed, adjusted her sitting position, and said, “What I mean is, did Paul say he wants to marry you?”
Eva, suddenly realizing, blushed again.
Seeing her like this, Rosalyn couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh, “Eva, this is the first time I’ve seen you so shy…”
