Memories Of The Night 455 Chapter 455: He Helped Annie

In the evening, Duke goes to the birthday party of his best friend, together with Annie.

It is the birthday party of young people, after all, the atmosphere here is much more relaxing than the formal dinner.

Seeing Duke come in with Annie on his arm...

Someone comes over to joke immediately, "Duke, no wonder so long time I haven't seen you, originally you have a girlfriend! Your girlfriend is so beautiful, why don't you introduce us early, punish a cup?"

In the face of the jokes of his friend, Annie lowers her head with some embarra.s.sment.

But Duke...does not explain their relations.h.i.+p, but obediently drinks a cup of wine.

"She's just come back from abroad. Don't frighten her!"

After that, the friend leaves...

Duke whispers in Annie's ear, "If they hear that you don't have a boyfriend, they're going to hara.s.s you, so... I beg your pardon for what happened just now."

When she hears what Duke says, Annie just realizes.

It turns out that he has not explained much just in order to protect her.

Annie gives him a grateful look and nods, "Yeah, I wouldn't mind."

Duke shows up at the party on Annie's arm. Everyone thinks they're in a relations.h.i.+p.

Duke puts some sleeping pills into Annie's wine secretly.

Annie doesn't spend much time at the party with Duke...

She begins to feel dizzy.

As Duke sees Annie begin to feel groggy and a little top-heavy in her walk, he holds her up and says, "My girlfriend has had too much drink. I'll take her away first."

After leaving the birthday party...

Annie is almost entirely unconscious.

She leans most of her weight on Duke and just wobbles along as she walks.

Seeing this dizzy and totally defenseless woman...

Duke finally makes up his mind, picks her up, and wants to take her to the hotel.

Anyway...

It's all the same to him to marry any woman.

At least this woman, he does not like but also does not hate.

Marrying her in the future will help him inherit the Wilson family, that's enough.

After stuffing Annie into his car, Duke is about to get in and drive to the hotel.

Who knows, at this moment, not far from suddenly a strong dazzling light hits.

Duke unconsciously covers his eyes. When the light disappears, Duke looks in that direction, only to find that Aaron's car has stopped behind his.

Duke is shocked.

How could he meet Aaron at this very moment!

Anyway, they are brothers.

Despite all the compet.i.tion in secret, Duke pretends to be polite and courteous in front of people.

Seeing Aaron's car...

He finally walks past and greets him, "Elder brother, why are you here?"

Aaron rolls down the window and looks at Duke with his black eyes and asks, "Eating dinner, what are you doing here?"

"I... today is a friend's birthday, and dad asked me to take Annie out to his birthday, so she could meet some new people. Annie got drunk, and I am going to take her home."

"Oh, well, I'm just on the way home. Let's go."

Aaron says, and he raises the window.

Duke can only answer, "Okay."

Then he goes back to his car.

He planned it all out.

He thought after tonight...

Annie would become his woman.

He would have a picture of her sleeping with him, so he's not afraid that she might choose Aaron.

But...

He just happened to meet Aaron!

Duke, though, is annoyed that his plans have been disrupted.

But Aaron's car is parked right behind him.

If he doesn't drive, Aaron will not drive.

Duke starts the car after all and takes unconscious Annie back home.

Aaron, too, drives behind.

The two cars return to the Wilson Family almost at the same time.

At this point, it is just 9 p.m., Edward and Jane are still up.

Hearing footsteps outside, Edward wonders, "Why do they come back so early?"

However, when he raises his eyes, he sees Duke holding Annie to come in, and Aaron keeping a close distance behind.

Edward is shocked to see Annie unconscious.

"Duke! What's going on here? Was it not for you to take good care of her?"

Duke only can reply, "Dad, I didn't know that Annie was so not good at drinking. I didn't stop her, but... after a few drinks, she's drunk like this."

"Take her to her room, and have the servant wait on her!"

"Yes, dad!"

After Duke sends Annie back to her room, Edward follows them with a look of concern.

But Jane is speechless and incredulous.

According to their plan, Duke and Annie will not come back tonight.

But now...

That is to say, their plan failed?

When Jane accidentally turns her head and sees Aaron's eyes...

Only to find there is a bit more disdain and cold in his black eyes.

Jane's heart sinks.

Has Aaron seen through their plan?

Jane quickly looks away and follows them to Annie's room.

Well, it doesn't matter even if Aaron knew that he doesn't have any evidence.

What can he do to them?

It is a pity that...

Their plan is not carried out successfully.

Aaron, this guy, his existence can only be bad for them!

After everyone left, Aaron went back to his room.

He just happened to accompany the client out of dinner. As soon as he got into the car, he saw Duke come out with a drunk and unconscious woman.

Duke has always been a decent guy. He wouldn't let a woman drink so much under his eyes.

When Aaron noticed that the woman was Annie, he was on his guard.

Jane and Duke wanted to take advantage of Annie to get the right of inheritance. He heard it all in the pool. How could he not understand what they were trying to do?

However...

He had no idea that they would have no bottom line.

Duke, he would even do something like that.

Although Aaron had no feelings for Annie, and even if he would occasionally spend time with her, it was for Edward's sake.

However, he could not watch Jane and Duke scheme her secretly.

So he helped Annie.
