Rules of Engagement novel Chapter 170

Soren and Elsa looked at each other, and Elsa put a glass of wine into Maurice's hand. "Have a try. If you still can't talk to her, I don't have other ways to help you."

Maurice didn't care about whatever it was in his hand. He drank it all in one gulp.

Elsa was still a little worried. Maurice's face flushed slightly. "It tastes good!"

He turned around and walked toward Jane. "Hello, my name is Maurice Li. I'm a colonel of the army in Linchuan City. I've seen you at Mr. Sorens home last time. You haven't changed much since we met. How are little Bun and your mother? Please do me a favor to greet them."

Maurice's calm manner made him a perfect colonel. Now, not to mention Jane, even Elsa was shocked. Looking back at Soren, Soren thought for a while and said, "He is indeed talkative when he's drunken, but I have never thought of using it in this situation. If he had known it earlier, he wouldn't have been alone for so many years."

Then, under the surprised gaze of Soren and Elsa, Maurice behaved generously and talked smoothly with Jane. They finished the first happy formal meeting. At noon, he invited Soren and Elsa to have lunch together. Soren and Elsa shook their heads. "You two can have lunch together. We will have lunch at home!"

The two of them went out. When they were about to go out, Soren pulled Maurice and said, "Order some wine for lunch. You need to drink a little!"

Maurice obeyed his suggestion. "Yes, sir!"

As soon as they went out, Elsa and Soren looked at each other. They didn't expect that things would develop so dramatic. Thinking of the flurry just now, the two of them couldn't help laughing again.

But a few days later, Jane asked Elsa out and told her that she and Maurice were going to get the marriage certificate soon. Elsa still felt it was too fast. "Don't you want to wait more time?"

"Well, since we are a perfect match, there's no need to wait for more time. I believe my intuition. Maurice is always a trustworthy person. I've met so many people, but no one has ever given me such a sense of security."

Elsa smiled. "I just hope that you can have more chances to fall in love with each other before you get married. Marriage is not romantic."

"I think you and your husband are very romantic, aren't you?" Jane joked with a smile, "To be honest, although I think it will be a little fast, the story between you and Ren also gives me confidence, making me believe that there is a matter of first marriage and then falling in love."

Elsa held her hand and said, "Anyway, I want to see you and little Bun live a simple and happy life."

"Isn't it already started?" Said Jane with a smile.

Raising the ice cream in her hand, Elsa also smiled brightly. "Say goodbye to the past and cheers for the future!"

"To the future of us!" Jane also raised the ice-cream.

Because of this, Elsa was also in a good mood. When she went to the hospital with Soren for the pre pregnancy check-up, she always had a satisfied smile on her face. She also told Jane to keep some old clothes that little Bun had worn before, so that she could use them for her future baby. Jane made fun of her for a long time because of this.

Thinking that she could concentrate on preparing for the pregnancy after the pre pregnancy examination, Elsa's face turned a little red, and she had been immersed in such happiness. In fact, Elsa was willing to be drawn to the Ministry of Culture because she wanted to prepare for this. She was afraid of being bothered by the work in the newspaper office, and she was also afraid of what happened that night caused by Johnny again. If she really got pregnant, she would not let anything bad happen to her baby.

Seeing her red face, Soren smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's just a simple examination."

"Yes. I'm not nervous." As Elsa spoke, she looked up at Soren subconsciously. The corner of his lips was particularly beautiful, firm and gentle, which made her reluctant to look away. She stretched out her fingers to touch his lips.

"What's wrong?" Soren held her fingers and kissed them.
