The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

Chapter 73: She Was Drunk But Didn't Make A Scene 

Instead of going upstairs to take a shower, Ayla headed for the kitchen.She reached into the refrigerator and took out the dishes for the supposed dinner tonight.

Then, she placed them on the dining table.

"Here you go.Have a taste," she said as she approached Brian.

It was Chinese New Year's Eve, and people were supposed to have a family reunion dinner tonight.

But unfortunately, Ayla was all alone.

As such, she lost her appetite.

While staring at Ayla, Brian also entered the dining room and took a seat.

Then, his eyes shifted to the dishes on the table.

"Did you prepare all of these yourself?" She nodded.

"Yeah, I did.Why? Is there anything you don't like?"

Since she wasn't busy, she decided to make dinner for New Year's Eve.

Unfortunately, she found herself alone that night.

After picking up his chopsticks, Brian tasted the dishes.He looked at her with an impressed look.

"They taste fine."

As she met his gaze, Ayla politely answered, "Enjoy your meal.I'll leave first."

She had no reason to stay in the main villa since he was already home.

"Wait.Who told you to leave?"

A hint of coldness was in his voice.

"Fetch me a bottle of wine."

If she had known that he was going to ask for alcohol, Ayla would have left earlier.

Instead of preparing dinner for him, she would have shut herself in her room.

Unfortunately, it was too late to change her mind.

With a frown, she headed to the wine cabinet.

After getting a bottle and a glass, she went back to him.

"Should I pour you a glass?"

It seemed so natural for him to be served by her.

As such, he nodded at her.

Since his several meetings swamped his schedule, it had been a long time since he had a decent meal.

He decided to enjoy himself tonight with the delicacies and wine in front of him.

While pouring wine for him, Ayla cursed in her thought, 'I hope you drink too much that you'll die.I don't want to see you ever again"

However, when he noticed that the glass was full, Brian told her, "Drink it."
