When Evelyn left, she wanted to hail a taxi.
But Elizabeth thought it would take a long time for her to walk out of the neighbourhood, and it was not convenient to hail a taxi outside, so she asked the driver to send her back.
After Evelyn left, James held Elizabeth in his arms and leaned slightly, "What did Evelyn tell you?"
Elizabeth looked at him with confusion, "What?"
James said, "You two were smiling so happily just now. When she left, it seemed that you didn't want to part with each other. What's wrong? Did she win the lottery? "
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud, "Why are you so imaginative?"
"Humph!"
"Even if she won the lottery, she wouldn't be as happy as now."
James raised his black eyebrows, "Oh? Is that so?" "Of course." Elizabeth nodded with a smile. She had no way to hide her happiness at all, "She's going to be in a relationship."
Hearing this, James frowned, "Why are your words... so confusing? Is she going to be in a relationship?" It sounded so strange.
"Alas!" Elizabeth curled her lips, "I don't know how to explain it to you. Anyway, that's what I mean. Maybe she'll be in a relationship soon."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Then just forget it." Elizabeth didn't mind it at all and said with a smile, "I'm really happy for Evelyn. I hope that she could get married with him and live a happy life, just like us."
Hearing this, James couldn't help smiling, "It seems that you are very satisfied with our love life." He was proud!
Elizabeth coughed lightly, "It's... not bad."
"Hey!" James was unsatisfied, "Honey, what do you mean by 'not bad'?" He didn't like to hearthat!
"Honey, you..." James thought for a moment and said, "Do you know how sad I was when you said that? Look at me! I treat you very well, don't I? I almost give you everything you want, and you're the only one I I love, but you said that to me. Aren't you afraid that I'll be sad?"
Elizabeth pursed her lips and didn't say a word.
"For example, didn't I say that I would accompany you for a walk after dinner? You promised me, didn’t you? But later, you stood me up because Evelyn came to you, right? Honey, you really value your friend over me!"
Hearing James's complaint, Elizabeth finally couldn't hide her amusement and burst into laughter.
James's face darkened. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't bear to say a harsh word to her.
"Are you angry because of this?" Elizabeth took his hand and shook it gently twice.
James turned his head aside and explained his annoyance in this way.
"Alas! Evelyn just comes here occasionally. Since she was here, of course I had to accompany her. Don't be angry, okay?"
Elizabeth repressed her smile, "Just now, I lied to you. In fact, our love life is very perfect."
"I'm serious, and I'm telling the truth now. James, why are you so nice? I actually met you. How lucky I am! Ha-ha!"
James's expression softened as he smiled, "Alright, I might as well forgive you for the sake that you're the mother of my son."
"Thank you."
