Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 1222

Late at night, there was no groom in the large wedding room.

The bride was the only one sitting by the bed.

When the clock pointed to twelve, Ava May's tense nerves finally relaxed, slowly exhaled a breath.

Looks like he shouldn't be coming tonight.

However, just as Ava gets up, ready to go to the shower and go to bed, the bedroom door is opened.

Horace Jason stood in the doorway and froze when he saw her, "Are you still awake."

Ava instantly looked a little frazzled up: "Just about to go to sleep ......"

Horace loosened his tie with one hand, closed the door and walked in: "You sleep, I'll take the couch."

Ava sat back down on the bed, her hands clasped together as if she wanted to say something but didn't know how to speak.

Time long so minute by minute, the whole house, are filled with a faint smell of alcohol.

Horace leaned back in the sofa, his eyes slightly dozed, and he didn't know if he was asleep.

After a long time, Ava finally gathered the courage to go to him, pick up the thin blanket next to him and cover him with it.

Just as she turned around with the kettle on the coffee table again, ready to go downstairs to pour some water, her wrist was suddenly choked.

Ava turned around in surprise.

Horace opened his eyes at some point, and his voice took on a bit of a drunken hoarseness: "My mom is outside."

Ava understood what he meant and responded dryly, putting the kettle down again.

Horace let go of her hand, "It's quite late, you go to bed."

Ava nodded gently and walked over towards the bed.

Turning off the lights and lying in bed, she kept her eyes open and couldn't sleep.

Can't help but, think of something messy.

Her father's company has encountered a lot of problems in the past two years, has been thinking of various ways to solve, and then somehow, hitched Horace this line, originally her father wanted her sister to marry Horace.

But for some reason, the night she waited for the engagement to come down, her father told her that she could start preparing for the wedding.

This also made her sister, who already did not like her, see her as a thorn in her side.

Ava actually knows very well that Horace also did not marry because he liked her, but because of his mother.

His mother is sick and her greatest wish is to see him get married and start a family.

So they are actually just taking what they want, a contract marriage that ends when it expires.

Before the wedding, Horace made it very clear to her that she could refuse if she didn't want to.

But Ava also wanted to escape from that home, so she agreed without even thinking about it.

They are like two people who have no choice and are forced to make a choice to come together.

This night, Ava did not sleep much, she could not ignore, sleeping on the sofa of the man.

That too, her husband for the next three years.

The feeling is subtle and indescribable.

The next morning, when she woke up in a daze, she was alone in the room.

Ava hurriedly washed up and rushed down.

In the living room, Lucy was sitting on the sofa, and when she saw her coming down, her face was full of smiles, "Ava, why are you up so early, don't you sleep more."

Ava said, "I can't sleep ......"

After the words, she looked around, but did not see Horace's figure.

Seeing this, Lucy, Horace's mother, explained, "Horace had some business at his company and was in a hurry to go take care of it."

Ava sighed with relief at his words.

Lucy got up and said, "But you came down just in time to eat your breakfast and then go back to bed."

In the kitchen, the maids had already prepared the meal.

Sitting in front of the table, Lucy added, "Horace will be back at noon and will accompany you home this afternoon."

Ava quickly waved her hand: "It's okay, if he's busy forget it ......"

"How can we forget about this kind of thing." Lucy said while serving her porridge, "We still need to have the etiquette, I've prepared the gifts, just take them with you when you go out."

Ava reached for the bowl, "Thank you Auntie Lucy."

Lucy paused her hand and said with a smile, "And call your aunt."

Hearing her say that, Ava's face reddened slightly and brewed for a while before speaking in a whisper, "Mom."

"Eh, that's right." Lucy satisfied to put the porridge in front of her, and said, "Ava ah, our family some years ago something happened, almost bankruptcy, but in Horace gave all the efforts to finally save the company back, but also slowly on track, now also considered to restore the Jason Family when the scenery."

Immediately after, she continued: "Horace, also because of this, the mind has been pouncing on the company above, sometimes they are sick are not cared about, I have not said a lot about him for this, but it does not work."

Ava listened and nodded slowly, "Auntie Lucy...... mom don't worry, I will take good care of him in the future."

"That's not the reason I gave you so much information. A person's mind is so focused on his work that he is inevitably negligent of those around him, so don't mind if there is something he hasn't done well." Lucy took her hand. "Ava, since you're married, you're a family now, so you have to live a good life in the future."

Ava said, "I know he's busy with work and won't mind."

Lucy laughed: "But don't worry, I will also remind him at any time, married, and a person is still different. What's more, I'm still waiting for you to give me a grandchild."

At this, Ava's face was completely red and she buried her head to eat.

After breakfast, since she really didn't sleep well last night, she went to her room to catch up on her sleep.

And in Lucy's opinion, she was probably tired last night ......

It seems that her wish to hold a grandchild is just around the corner.

At noon, Horace returned.

Lucy called out to him, "Ava is still sleeping, don't disturb her up there."

Horace stopped in his tracks.

Lucy picked up the small clothes and shoes on the coffee table and asked him, "This is what I found from your sister's room, these are not worn, and they are quite nice."

Horace glanced over, "Logan is in elementary school, what are you doing finding these out."

Lucy did not have the good grace to slap his arm: "Of course I know Logan in elementary school, I can still give him wear it, I'm here for you to prepare, a little later this afternoon I will go out to buy some, no ...... still have to wait for Ava together, choose what she likes most important. "

Horace pursed his lips, "I just got married yesterday."

"What's wrong with getting married just yesterday, there are some things that should be prepared in advance." Lucy said. Lucy said, a look of desire to say, "Ava ate breakfast today and slept all morning, I see the day from my grandchildren is not far away."

Horace: "......"

Lucy put her things away, "Okay, okay, it's almost lunch, go get her, you have to go back to her mother's house with her in the afternoon, it's not good to go late."
