Chapter 201

Edward was drunk again, unconscious.

Arya and Nanny Joy struggled to carry him to the guest room.

Nanny Joy frowned. "Why are you young people always get drunk?"

Arya covered the quilt for him and said to Nanny Joy, "Let's go out.”

Nanny Joy nodded. Arya poured him a glass of water and said, "Your throat won't be comfortable. Have some water before you sleep.”

When Edward was drunk, he would just sleep and wouldn't throw up or make a scene.

Xavier came back very late. There were many guests at the wedding, and they were all dignitaries. Naturally, he had to attend to these guests.

Xavier also had some wine, but he wasn't drunk.

However, he seemed to have drunk a lot. He lay on the bed with his eyes closed and his voice low and hoarse. "Give me a glass of water.”

Arya handed over a glass of warm water. Xavier didn't take it but lay still.

Arya had no choice but to put the cup on the table first, to help him, let him lean on her, take the cup, and put it on his lips.

He opened his eyes, drank the water in one breath. After that, he took off the glass in her hand and hugged her. "Lay down with me."

She lay down and nestled in his arms.

He stroked her long hair. The reason why he drank too much was that he felt bad. This was his woman, but he couldn't introduce her to others.

She was always quiet and rational, which made him heartache.

She held him tighter and looked at him. "I'm Mr. Jones’ wife."

He opened his eyes abruptly, which were shining brightly. Her words seemed to cheer him up much. He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "You are Mrs. Jones. No one can change it." The night was getting late.
