Chapter 744 Mother-in-law's Approval Counted

Drinking was just Andrew's first test.

Zen couldn't deny that he admired Andrew for taking the drink like man. Raising his own glass, he finished his wine as well.

Afterwards, he poured Andrew another one.

Ashley looked at Andrew with concern. She knew that Andrew had a weak stomach, but she couldn't say anything now. All she could do was to lightly nudge him to remind him to be careful not to get drunk.

Seeing how protective Ashley was of Andrew made Zen unhappy. It wasn't hard to imagine that she would always chose to be on his side, especially when they got married.

Because he loved Ashley so much and couldn't bear to scold her, Zen only vented all his anger on Andrew.

They continued to chat and drink.

Soon, they were talking about Andrew's family.

Andrew was a bit hesitant talking about it.

"Only my grandpa is with me,"

he said matter-of-factly.

His parents had divorced a long time ago, and he had never acknowledged his father as his family. As for his mother, he had no idea where she had gone. Andrew had never seen her nor had he ever asked about her in the first place.

Chant, his grandfather, was the only real family Andrew had. Moreover, the Lu family had done so many vile things to him. At this point, he had almost nothing to do with them.

'Only his grandpa?'

Cynthia guessed that something must have happened in Andrew's family, so he and his grandpa were the only ones left. Her eyes showed more tenderness toward Andrew.

But Ashley cast a suspicious look at Andrew.

'Is that true?

Doesn't he still have a dad and mom?

What is the meaning of his words?'

Ashley was puzzled and looked at Andrew doubtfully. Andrew pinched her hand beneath the table and gave her

treasure of our family. If you even dare to mistreat her, or if you fail her, you will definitely not get away with it!"

"There's no need for you to worry. I love and care about Ashley as much as you do. I won't be able to forgive myself if that happened!" Andrew retorted.

Zen glared at Andrew as he rested his head on his hand. He looked like he had drunk too much, and was starting to mumble something inaudibly.

He had thought to get Andrew drunk to see if he could pry some words out of Andrew's mouth. He didn't expect that he would get himself drunk first. As it turned out, his plan had completely failed.

No one now knew how Zen would react towards Andrew the following day when he finally sobered up.

Cynthia was quite embarrassed. She smiled at Ashley and Andrew and apologized, "Okay, I think Zen has had too much alcohol. Let me help him upstairs. Ash, you can stay here tonight. I've already cleaned up your room. As for Andrew..."

There was a second of awkward silence. Cynthia didn't know if it was appropriate to keep them in the same room even if they already had children together.

She paused, not knowing how to continue.
