Sabrina had never called Nelson that in their three years of marriage.
In the past, his attitude intimidated her so much that she dared not address him so intimately.
Now, she wasn't afraid anymore.
When drunk, she became listless and sounded gentler than usual. He found it seductive.
"What did you call me?"
Nelson wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Hubby! Aren't we married?" Sabrina said as she rested her face in the crook of his neck and smiled with satisfaction.
Nelson looked down at her. She wore the same smile she had when they had gotten married.
After putting her coat on, he carried her out of the private room.
The cold night wind relieved Sabrina's dizziness a little.
Upon opening her eyes, she saw Nelson's tense jawline, which looked sharp.
She felt that it was a similar scene to when they had just gotten married.
Her mind was fuzzy, and her eyes hurt. She finally felt better after shutting her eyes.
After they got into the car, Nelson pinned her against the car door and kissed her.
Sabrina felt suffocated under his weight. She tried to push his face away.
However, he grabbed her wrist.
"Get off me, you rotten apple!"
Nelson found her amusing.
She couldn't move, so she could only glare at him. It excited him even more.
He held her neck and forcefully tried to kiss her again.
Sabrina gritted her teeth and twisted her body in resistance.
"Sabrina, is this how you behave?"
She had flirted with him while drunk and denied it after that.
The lights outside the window flickered across her face. Her gaze appeared dazed, like an innocent fawn in the forest.
This reminded Nelson of the first time he saw her at home when she asked his parents' permission to have him.
Her eyes had sparkled the same way.
"Didn't you say you wanted me?" Nelson asked.
Sabrina became confused again.
"Like that?"
"Yes…"
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror. Nelson was leaning over Sabrina aggressively as if he was already kissing her.
The driver dared not look any longer and sighed.
He thought that Nelson was shameless for deceiving Sabrina like this.
The faint smell of alcohol grew more intense as Nelson and Sabrina kissed. Sabrina was utterly disoriented as she clung to his neck.
Suddenly, a buzzing phone call made Nelson tense up and stop.
Sabrina tilted her head back unhappily and looked at him in confusion.
"Let's go home," Nelson said.
He brushed his thumb across her alluring red lips. Then, he straightened his clothes and embraced her.
Sabrina's phone rang again in her bag.
Nelson pulled it out and answered, "Sabrina can't answer right now. She won't be going home tonight."
Abigail fumed when she heard Nelson's voice.
"You jerk! Let Sabrina answer the phone! Who are you to say that she won't be coming home?"
Nelson was at a loss for words.
At the sight of Sabrina smiling at him, he handed her the phone.
"Hi, Abby."
"Sabrina, did you drink hard liquor?"
"I got married today, so no drinking."
