Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 48

Geoffrey closed the car door opened by Kenneth. “I drank too, so I couldn’t drive. Let Sabrina send you home.”

Sabrina stepped in, “Yes, Ken, I drove. Let me send you home, alright? This way Geoffrey could also get some rest as early as possible.”

Kenneth frowned and stared at Geoffrey, “Are you planning to stay overnight?”

Geoffrey laughed, “I’m a single man and I can sleep wherever I want to. Furthermore, I could afford a hotel room. Go home. Don’t let Auntie worry about you.”

Sabrina said, “Yes, Ken. Auntie is waiting for you at home. We should go home now.”

Kenneth glared at Geoffrey for a few seconds, then turned around and entered Sabrina’s car.

Geoffrey was a little bit terrified from his glare but his expression was well-hidden. His smile remained on his face as Sabrina closed the car door for Kenneth.

Sabrina breathed a sigh of relief and she sounded cheerful. She waived at Geoffrey, “We’ll go home now. You rest early too.”

“Sabrina, you only have one chance,” Geoffrey put his hands in his pocket and said.

Sabrina’s expression was frozen. Without saying anything, she stepped into her car and drove away.

The night was getting darker but the city lights shone bright.

The car was on the road for quite some time. Sabrina’s face flushed with an inexplicable expression as she peeked at Kenneth sitting in the backseat.

Kenneth was leaning against the seat. His legs were slightly curled and his eyes were shut. He sat still like a perfect sculpture. It’s hard to say if he was sleeping or just resting.

Of course, Sabrina hoped he was asleep but when she remembered that Rachel was the reason why Kenneth drank so much, her heart immediately filled with hatred and anger.

What an ugly and useless woman. She didn’t understand why Kenneth couldn’t let go of her. Perhaps it was the period three-year time where they were so used to the existence of each other that made the divorce so hard for him?

It’s fine. After tonight, he will know any other women are all better than Rachel.

When she thought of what was going to happen next, she became excited and cheerful again.

After a while, she thought the alcohol must have been working, so she tried calling Kenneth’s name softly.

Kenneth didn’t respond to her calling.

When Sabrina was feeling happy about the effect of alcohol, Kenneth’s voice raised from the backseat, “What?”

Sabrina was startled. She explained in panic, “I…I was thinking you should call Auntie and let her know that you’re okay.”

Didn’t Geoffrey say Kenneth drank a lot in the bar? Why was he still sober?

“No, I’m not going home tonight. Send me back to Green Bay.”

Sabrina stunned for a second, and then nodded, “Al…Alright, I shall inform Auntie later then.”

This was exactly what she wanted. The lesser interruptions, the better.

Green Bay was where Kenneth and Rachel stayed before their divorce. Kenneth would go back to that place once a while but Rachel never went back.

Kenneth remained silent after telling Sabrina where to go.

The car was in dead silence. Sabrina slowed down the car on purpose.

When arrived at the gate of Green Bay, Sabrina stopped the car and opened the door for Kenneth, “Kenneth, we’ve arrived.”

Kenneth felt kind of dizzy after all those alcohols.
