Being pressured by his sister, David could do nothing.
Since he was together with Shania, his sister, Maisie, had never spoken up for him.
In her eyes, Shania was always right and he was always wrong, giving him an illusion that he was not her biological brother.
"I'm sorry, and I'm leaving, okay?"
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the opposite apartment.
He had no control over each of them.
He could do nothing with his wife or his sister.
Shania happily hugged Maisie. She grew up abroad, and Riverside City was a completely strange city to her, but she lived here with David. In fact, this decision put her through a lot.
However, after she came to Riverside City, she felt incomparably warm and moved because of the support and care given by Maisie all the time, and the sense of strangeness and loneliness she had also faded gradually.
Now she felt that she was living a happy life in this city. She had her beloved man, and her warm family, and now she had a few female friends who could talk with her. Thus, she was very contented.
Her parents planned to go back to Riverside City after retirement, then she would be happier.
In fact, her parents were from Chiobar. They went abroad to study when they were young and then stayed there. However, as their homeland was Chiobar, they had a stronger urge to return home as they got older.
Now she settled in Riverside City. It was also a reason for their coming back.
After returning to his residence, David told Ezra and the other men, "Just wash up and go to bed. They don't let me in now."
Evidently, those women opened the door for David several times as a courtesy.
But now, they were all drunk, having a private talk, and complaining about men. It was inappropriate for David to be present, so he was shut out.
They chatted happily. It should be the happiest party they had. All of them found an outlet to vent their feelings.
They ate, drank, and chatted until midnight. Then they all fell asleep on the sofa except Shania, whose home was opposite. Though she was drunk, she still worried about her husband, so she ran home.
It could be imagined that David had a terrible night. He carried his drunk wife to the bathroom, gave her a bath, and made some honey water to sober her up. Later, he had to stand the noises made by his drunk wife.
The next morning, he went downstairs and bought a variety of brekkie for those women. It could be seen that he was indeed a good husband, brother, and friend.
"Thank you." Maisie yawned, answered the door to get the breakfast, and expressed thanks.
After thinking for a while, she asked, "Was I too harsh on you last night?"
In fact, Maisie had been a gentle and tolerant sister for so many years. But somehow, since he was with Shania, she always felt him annoying.
She was strict with him perhaps out of her love for him. She hoped that David and Shania would live happily, so she always stuck up for Shania.
David snorted, "It doesn't matter. I'm used to being treated that way. Anyway, now Shania is your closest family, not me."
Maisie was speechless.
After saying that, David turned around and went back to his house.
Maisie who had a hangover massaged her forehead. Then she took the breakfast back to her apartment for her friends.
Knowing that the breakfast was bought by David, Jean couldn't help laughing and saying, "Wow, David is so considerate."
Anya echoed, "Of course, otherwise, Shania wouldn't be fascinated by him or come to Riverside City with him."
