“Uncle!” Manuel kissed Matteo on the cheek.
Matteo was stunned when he saw his face. Although he was used to it, he always saw another person in his face.
He was shocked for a while and Manuel hugged his neck.
“It must have been hard for Uncle to drive all the way here, Aunt Anna cooked a lot of good things.”
“Really?” Matteo recovered and smiled.
“Are you coming home tonight, Uncle?”
“I’ll come home tomorrow morning, I’ll stay the night here with you, will you?”
Manuel nodded vigorously, “I missed Uncle, too.”
Serena watched the scene with a sense of helplessness, she was the mother, but Manuel kissed his uncle and Anna and not her.
Anna and Matteo treated Manuel very well. They treated him almost like a son.
As much as Matteo loved her, he loved Manuel more.
Anna, who was with Manuel every day, became almost his second mother.
After about ten minutes, Anna finally opened the kitchen door and brought in all the dishes. Serena went to help her. Matteo naturally did the same. After putting everything on the table, they sat down.
Serena sat down and after taking a bite of food, she suddenly got up and grabbed a bottle of red wine.
Matteo could not help but frown and say, “Don’t you have to work tomorrow? Do you think it’s okay to drink?”
“Never mind, I’ll just drink a little.”
With that said, Serena filled a few glasses. Anna blinked and took one. Serena smiled, “Be patient, we’ll go out drinking next time.”
Anna immediately blushed, “Don’t talk nonsense, I only like red wine…”
When they were abroad, they often bought beer, and at home then drank it, and eventually got drunk.
After drinking so much, their ability to hold alcohol had risen a lot.
Also, after Serena finished work, she had more time to have fun and drink, and she began to hold up more and more.
For them to have a couple of glasses of red wine was an easy thing.
But Matthew frowned upon seeing this scene, seeing her drinking before eating, and then taking a second glass, reached out to take the glass.
“Brother?” Serena looked at him surprised, “What’s going on?”
“You haven’t eaten anything and you keep drinking, can you manage?”
“I… Of course I’m okay.”
Matthew’s face was calm and he had no desire to joke.
“No, eat first and then drink.”
Seeing Serena struggling, Anna sitting beside whispered, “Don’t expose yourself too much, drink less.”
Hearing those words, Serena reacted by slightly raising her lips, “You’re right, brother, let’s eat first and then drink…. Whatever.”
Those words seemed almost true, Anna rolled her eyes.
Finally, Serena could not control herself and drank two more glasses. Matteo could not persuade her. The red wine was very strong. Her cheeks blushed after drinking, and she lay there staring blankly in a bland manner.
Watching this scene, Matteo felt his head turn and pulled Manuel toward him.
“Has Manuel finished eating?”
Manuel nodded his head, then raised his head, “Uncle, don’t worry about Mom. Mom knows what she’s doing.”
Why was this so familiar to him? Matteo narrowed his eyes, “When she was abroad, did your mother do this often?”
After hearing those words, Manuel immediately realized that he was wrong to say those words and immediately rephrased the sentence.
“No, Uncle, today Mom is happy because she came home and saw Uncle, so she drank a little.”
“So that’s it?” Matthew looked at Serena, who had red cheeks, and Anna stood beside her smilingly holding a glass in her hand and hugging her neck to toast.
That’s okay, after all, she was happy to see him, so he would forgive her this time.
With that in mind, Matthew said, “After dinner, go upstairs and wash up. After you wash up, go to bed, okay?”
Manuel nodded, “Don’t worry, Uncle, I won’t give you any trouble, it’s just that…. Aunt Anna seems to have had too much to drink. Don’t you need my help?”
“No need.”
“Then I’ll go to my room.”
Manuel jumped down from his chair, said goodbye to Matteo, and then went upstairs with his short baby legs.
Matteo followed him with his eyes the whole time. After he left, he looked at the two women in front of him.
The two drunk women.
His head turned a little.
Matthew stood up, his straight legs looked very slender under the table, rolled up his shirt sleeves elegantly, and cleaned up the dishes on the table.
After cleaning everything up, he made to take away the bottle of red wine, but Anna suddenly said, “Stop!”
Matteo stopped and looked toward her.
Anna let go of Serena’s hand, stood up, stumbled and staggered toward him.
“What are you doing?” After Anna got to where he was standing, she took the bottle from his hand and said in a voice altered by alcohol, “Don’t take away our wine, or else…. Serena… He will blame me!”
She struggled to stand and her body staggered in front of Matthew.
Matteo bore patience with her because she was a good friend and helper of his sister, “The bottle is empty. I took it to throw it away.”
When she heard this, Anna said, “Is it empty?”
Then she raised the bottle and poured it on her face. There was no more wine. She nodded and smiled, “That’s right, the bottle is empty…. Well, I’m going to bed.”
After he finished speaking, he took the bottle and made to leave, but suddenly lost his balance and fell back.
Seeing her about to fall, Matthew caught her. Anna screamed and fell into his arms.
“Be still!” Said Matteo frowning and with a cold expression.
His masculine breath flooded Anna’s body. Anna opened her eyes to look at the person in front of her.
After seeing that the person in front of her was the man of her dreams, Anna opened her eyes wide in fright, and then … she fainted.
She got drunk in front of the man of her dreams, and when she fell she was caught by him.
She chose to play dead!
Nothing happened!
Also, at that moment, Serena also fell drunk on the couch, she did not seem to be very well.
They were two fairly normal people, but when there were no strangers around, they would get drunk to the point of insanity.
Now that Matthew had seen them like this, they were really in a situation to make other people worry.
