Chapter 1996

It was already late at night. Even if Mary was anxious, she knew she should not disturb a pregnant woman during her sleep.

Thus, she decided to talk about it tomorrow.

“Is it cold? I’ll drive you home,” Andrius said softly.

Only then did he notice Mary was sleepy.

“Let me carry you!” Andrius spoke as he carried her without waiting for her to agree. He walked to the place where he parked his car.

Mary was drowsy. She dozed off as Andrius carried her into the car. All she felt was his warm embrace, which she thought was a warm blanket.

In a daze, she could feel Andrius packing the things and felt secure. She dozed off without realizing it.

After a while, he whispered to her, trying to wake her up,’ Mae… Mae… We’ve arrived at your house!”

Mary woke up, her head feeling heavy. But she was wide awake when Andrius called her Mae.

She grinned at him.

Her current identity was his girlfriend.

“Why did you bring me home?” She was suddenly reluctant to leave and wanted to stay with the man a little longer.

“We… can’t just go to a hotel.” Andrius’ gaze had become passionate.

Mary was flustered and knew it was not a suitable time for that.

However, she came up with an excuse to stay with him longer. She pouted and said, “I mean, I’m hungry.”

“Alright, let’s have supper,” Andrius answered, turned on the engine, and made a U-turn.

She sat up from the back seat and crawled to the front seat as she giggled. “From today onward, the front seat is my personal seat!”

“No problem! From now on, I’ll only pick you up with this car. Oh, and Aunt Wilson.” Andrius’ voice was suddenly deep and pleasant to listen to.

Joy surged through Mary’s calm mind again.

The following day, early in the morning, Rosalie was awakened by a call from her best friend.

Hearing about Andrius confessing to Mary took Rosalie aback. However, she felt happy for her friend since the two had finally gotten together.

At last, Mary hesitated momentarily before mentioning the purple wish bottle.

“Rosie, Andrius and I are just curious. Of course, you can just ask. It’s been over a decade. With President Lawrence’s wealth and features, he must have attracted many women back then. It’s nothing surprising! I’m not telling you this to cause conflict between you! Oh, I shouldn’t have said that. I shouldn’t have been so gossipy. I don’t want you to have any conflict with Byron now that you’ve finally gotten back together with him.”

She regretted saying it.

Some things should never be mentioned again. It had been so many years. Maybe Byron had forgotten about it.

Unexpectedly, Rosalie burst into laughter.

“Rosie, what are you laughing at? Be serious. I don’t want to see things like what happened with Chloe repeat themselves again. Byron is outstanding. Be careful!” Mary reminded me seriously.

Rosalie still chuckled.

After being yelled at by Mary several times, she stopped.

She responded calmly, “Well… would you believe me if I told you that I wrote that purple wish note?”
