Jeffrey Thompson went to his mansion feeling pensive.He did not like the situation that Annette was now in.He felt a craving for her spontaneity as when they were together.He recalled how she had laughed at his good humour changing the colour of her face.
It was late afternoon and the sun seemed to hide behind the clouds.He started walking towards Layla's cottage.A strange sensation came over him as he saw Annette cuddling William.His steps grew quicker and he halted in front of her.
"Annette will you dine with me today?" He asked.
" Yes of course," she smiled back at him.
The day disappeared into night and Annette dressed up after putting William to bed.
"Jeffrey will be coming soon," she said to her mother.
" Oh are you going out with him?" she asked.
" Yes he has asked me to dinner," replied Annette.
" Remember he's a Thompson too." Said Layla.
The car wheels crunched on the driveway and Annette answered the door .
" You look beautiful as usual," he said giving her a red rose.
" Thankyou," she answered.
They drove into the night and after half an hour reached Molly's bar.They had a few drinks and ate sea bass dressed in herbs and mushroom salad.
" What have you decided?" asked Jeffrey.
" About what?" She asked.
" Your marriage," he said.
" I'm going to sue for a divorce," she answered.
The expression on his face relaxed.
" That's a great decision,"he said.
" Why so?" She asked.
" I want to marry you," he said.
She blushed as never before.
" Annette Hobson daughter of Layla Hobson will you marry me?" He asked.
