The children kept Charles and Nancy busy by chatting with them. They didn't give Brandy a chance to speak.
Therefore, Brandy felt alone even if she was with these people.
Children are the bond of marriage. Brandy had always disdained these words, but today she finally understood that a child indeed played a key role in a good marriage.
Although Nancy hadn't married Charles,
the existence of their children made it impossible to separate them.
Many had tried, but no one succeeded yet.
"Brandy, you should try this one." Nancy picked up some dish for Brandy.
"Thank you, Nancy."
"You're welcome. Charles often say that he admires you a lot. You're brave, beautiful and generous. Let me propose a toast to you." After pouring Brandy a glass of wine, Nancy raised her own glass for a toast.
"Thank you." If she would be honest, Brandy felt out of place around this happy family.
Maybe this was the reason why she let herself drink one glass after another until she got drunk. Nancy drank a lot too, so Charles had to support them both on their way out.
It was a good thing that he didn't drink at all.
As for Brandy's feelings for him, it was not that he didn't feel it at all. It was just that he didn't really care.
Since Brandy was too drunk to go home alone, Charles drove to her apartment first, and then they went home.
The cold wind poured in when Nancy, who seemed to be so drunk, rolled down the car window.
Her hair was being blown by the wind as she sang loudly in the car.
"Aren't you afraid that the kids will catch a cold?" While driving, Charles took a guick glance at her.
"Daddy, Mommy is so excited. She drove Aunt Brandy away herself. How could she not be happy?" A sly smile appeared on Bobby's face as he spoke.
Earlier at the restaurant, his mother treated his father very well. She was unusually sweet, and she even spoke gentler to him.
"Charles, Charles..." Hearing Bobby's words, Nancy puckered her lips and kissed Charles' face.
"Nancy, you're drunk." Surprised by her action, Charles lost control of the steering wheel for a second, which made him frown.
"Bobby is right. I just want to show off our love in front of Brandy. Isn't it hateful?" Nancy flashed an evil smile. "Charles, do you think I'm hateful? Do you feel sorry for Brandy? Her reaction was so funny!"
All of a sudden, Nancy laughed arrogantly. Even so, Charles didn't seem mad. He just reached out to close the window and said, "Do we need to show off our love?"
"Ah, didn’t you like what I did tonight?" When Nancy's laughter died down, she turned her head to look at Charles.
Although she was drunk, she was aware that she was really gentle and charming tonight.
It was seldom for her to be affectionate, but tonight she had flirted with Charles a lot.
Obviously, she did it on purpose to make Brandy feel little. Even Charles had noticed it, but he didn't scold her.
It was strange, wasn't it?
"Nancy, I love you, while Brandy is just my classmate. She saved me, so I'm being nice to her. Who do you think is more important to me? Having to repeat this line many times made Charles feel helpless.
How could he not see that Nancy deliberately embarrassed Brandy?
