Chapter 72 He Did Not Mind


    Antony got an empty cup, and Arthur filled half of it with alcohol.


    “Mr. Hilton, have a drink.”


    Antony ced the cup before Matthew and shed a friendly smile.


    Matthew nced at the cup. I already have a cup of water. What are they doing?


    Despite his confusion, he said nothing. The boys seemed eerily familiar with their striking features. It


    seemed like he had seen them somewhere, but he couldn’t put a finger on where.


    Arthur’s frosty voice rang out. “Mr. Hilton, this is a rule in our family. Please finish the


    drink!”


    Abby was batting her eyshes innocently.


    “Arthur, what rule is that? I haven’t heard of it!” she protested.


    Are they bullying Mr. Handsome? But Arthur and Antony have never bullied


    anyone.


    Arthur nodded. “You’ll get the same treatment in the future.”


    Comprehension dawned on Matthew. This is a test by the boys. They think that I’m


    Elizabeth’s boyfriend. When Arthur said that Abby would get the same treatment in the future, he


    meant that her boyfriend would have to pass the same test. Indeed, it’s a test in the Wade family. The


    boys are smart, huh? No wonder Elizabeth hasn’t gotten lost all these years. It was all thanks


    to her sons.


    He took the cup and downed it swiftly. A burning sensation spread across his mouth, and he


    btedly/realized the drink they gave him was liquor. It also had quite a high alcohol content


    too.


    Matthew had been in the business world since he was young. With his experience attending


    all sorts of events, he had a high tolerance for alcohol.

    shing a faint smile, he showed them the empty cup.


    Arthur refilled his cup without a word. The kids resumed their action of staring at him.


    intently.


    Matthew drank cup after cup of liquor. Soon, he felt an unpleasant sensation after drinking


    on an empty stomach.


    He wasn’t drunk but felt a little dizzy. A hint of amusement appeared in his bleary eyes as he


    asked, “Do you still want me to drink?”


    Both boys remained unfazed, but it was clear how opinionated they were.


    “No need,” came Arthur’s reply.


    The brothers immediately got rid of the evidence as Abby inched nearer to Matthew.


    “Mr. Handsome, you drank a lot of water. Do you need to pee?” she asked.


    Matthew had finished the entire bottle of water. If Abby were to drink that much water, she


    would be feeling the urge to pee now.


    As hisrge palm brushed across her soft cheek, he shook his head. “Go and y! I need to


    talk to your brothers.”


    Abby pursed her lips. “All right. I’ll go watch TV now.”


    She ran to the TV happily and settled into afortable position on the carpet to enjoy her


    cartoon show.


    Soon, the boys joined him on the couch. They gazed at him intently.


    Arthur asked, “What is your name? How old are you? Are you married?”


    Matthew had been waiting for them. A corner of his mouth lifted as he said, “My name is


    Matthew Hilton. I’m twenty-five years old and single.”


    Hearing his answer, both boys exchanged nces. He’s a year older than Mommy, but we’re worried


    about him being single. He’s young, handsome, and tall, but Mommy has us. It sounds


    impossible for him to ept Mommy readily.


    Antony continued with the questions. “Do you mind if your girlfriend has children?”


    As Abby adored Matthew and wanted him to be their daddy, the boys wanted to find out if he


    was qualified to take up the position.


    Matthew’s smile widened, for the alcohol had gotten to him. Clearly, the boys had calcted


    the time urately and knew when he would get drunk.


    “A-As long as I like her, I don’t mind.”


    Arthur pressed on. “What if she’s not that smart? Would you still like her?”
