"It's alright." John smiled. "Just having her near is fine."Cordy looked on, watching him smile with such tenderness and contentment…She could hardly describe how she felt just then.It turned out that John loved her with all his heart, while she thought he was dating Wendy.The scene then changed to Richard, John, and Wendy discussing how to take a family photo.They talked for a while until Cordy arrived, and they took the family with just Cordy, John, and Richard.She could not help glancing at John, noticing that he was nervously raising his hand and lowering it repeatedly, refraining from putting it on her shoulder.The scene changed again to the afternoon when John was baking a cake.Richard was hurrying him, saying, "Mommy's coming downstairs. Wendy, get clingy with Daddy."Then, as Wendy snuggled up against John as he worked, Cordy remembered that it was exactly what she saw when she arrived at the kitchen at the time.So it was all just an act.As she watched the

Cordy stared at the fireworks that seemed to blanket the skies and John's bewitching face beneath, her emotions ruffled…He really was in love with her and prepared so much for her.Her eyes welled up with tears—she thought she would never feel touched like this ever again. John was looking at her dewy eyes in turn.As they held each other gaze lovingly, all the ugliness, misunderstandings and repressed grievances seemed to fade.In fact, the world seemed to vanish as well, as they only had eyes for each other.John leaned his face toward her just then while she blinked before closing her eyes.As he gently kissed her lips, their hearts seemed to be awash with warmth.Cordy could not help clenching her knuckles as John held her lips, allowing him more.Hence, while it was a gentle brush at first, tongue was soon involved, and they started panting.He then scooped her up in his arms, while she wrapped her arms around his neck by instinct.They were very close, their breathin

John returned to their room after finishing his bath and saw that Cordy was not done with hers, just as he had expected.He did not hurry her and sat against the headboard instead, scrolling aimlessly through his phone as he waited for Cordy.He was clearly distracted, tensing up whenever he sensed movement from the bathroom.However, it was until after over ten minutes that Cordy finally opened the bathroom door, dressed in a pink bathrobe while having her wet hair wrapped in a towel, clearly having washed it.The bathrobe was a couple's set with the other being blue. John could not wear it since it was already in the bathroom after Cordy got in, so he wore a white one that was kept next door.He stared at Cordy, whose cheeks were still flushed after her bath, and her skin crystal fair under the lights.John could not help licking his dry lips—Cordy looked really appetizing at that very moment.Still, he did not give in to excitement and jump on her right away—instead, he walke

Cordy actually felt guilty.She and John were sleeping in the same bed on their wedding night but were doing nothing at all.She had no intention of shirking her spousal obligation since she decided to marry John.To her, marriage was no child's play, and it should be treated solemnly.Even so, what happened tonight was definitely unexpected, and Cordy felt even more guilty when she saw the box of condoms in the bedside drawer.John had really prepared for everything.In fact, that was not all—he even prepared underwear and sanitary pads for her, so there was nothing to worry about despite the surprise.John probably just did not expect that she would need the pads tonight.In fact, Cordy had trouble sleeping the whole night, tossing and turning in bed, probably because she was not used to sleeping in a new place.As for the man beside her, he did not sleep at all.They were still asleep late into the morning because of that until John's phone rang.He picked it up. "Aunt Na

Zoe promptly hung up, while Cordy turned toward John and said, "Zoe and Jay have both returned to Levine Manor. Let's join them—Dicky's there too."John nodded, since they would not not get any sleep in peace.They got out of bed and started washing up.John then entered the bathroom first, telling Cordy, "Your clothes are in the closet room."Cordy headed over, and found the closet room so huge it could match their bedroom.She opened one of the closets to find rows of women's clothing arranged neatly, outnumbering John's clothes by a ton.Naturally, every piece of clothing was her size—John certainly made considerable effort preparing this house.As such, she wondered again how traumatizing it would be if she had rejected his proposal.Still, she did not mull for too long—the dust had settled, and everything was going to be better now.She picked a set of rather formal clothes and put on light makeup while John put on a suit.They got in the car together, with Cordy admirin

Cordy froze outside the front door, left embarrassed by Zoe even before she stepped inside.Talk about a rock and a hard place…Still, Zoe turned and saw her right then but appeared completely unabashed as she called out to Cordy loudly, "Oh, Cordy! You finally brought my cousin—I mean, my nephew home!"John pursed his lips—Zoe was really getting full of herself after she took a promotion in seniority.And to make things worse, he could not argue—which really felt like a defeat."Your dear aunt is getting real impatient. I think she'll drag you both out of bed if you still drag your feet," Zoe teased."Watch your manners," Nancy snapped. "What manners? I'm their aunt too—what I say goes," Zoe argued.Nancy was stumped, while Jay quickly smoothed things over. "Why don't we get things underway? Everyone's hungry, especially the kids."He was certainly concerned that Nancy would start fighting Zoe, especially the latter being so fearless after she got over her past history with

Zoe turned toward her gift envelope, expecting not even ten percent of Jay's, and opened it right in front of Nancy.However, Zoe found nothing inside her envelope and could blow up right then.What the hell…Nancy really knew how to upset her!Still, Nancy could tell what Zoe was thinking from the latter's reaction. "Keep looking.""For what?!" Zoe snapped, speechless. "Lint?!"She then felt something small inside—could Nancy insult her any further?!It had been years, but she was still so petty!"Just take out what's inside already!" Nancy snapped sternly then.She was not worried that Zoe would misunderstand, but she was really afraid that Zoe would be so pig-headed she would throw the envelope away. Zoe was certainly reluctant, but she had been obedient to Nancy for years and did as she was told.And when she did, she was stunned to find that it was not a lint but an emerald ring instead.It also looked so familiar she had the feeling that she had seen it before…"You

"Why not?" Nancy calmly shot back. "Legitimate children take priority!"Zoe was stunned for a moment, before realizing what Nancy meant.Turning toward Jay, she told him, "Your sister is calling you a b*st*rd."Jay was speechless—Zoe really took it all in stride, did she not?Nancy in turn ignored Zoe and helped Cordy with the bangle, satisfied with how it looked on her wrist. "Johnny's grandmother would definitely be pleased to know that he married such a great wife."Cordy was a little embarrassed from the flattery, while Nancy quickly said, "Alright, let's eat.""Thank you, Aunt Nancy," Cordy said earnestly—being accepted by family was most precious and emotional for her, someone who was denied familial warmth since she was a child.After the tea ceremony, everyone headed to Levine Manor's spacious dining hall for lunch. Zoe was famished, since she hurried to Levine Manor without breakfast, worried that Nancy would scold her for being late. In fact, she would probably get
