Maria stepped aside, allowing Gernard to enter first, followed by Gavin. Gavin, hands casually in his pockets, glanced at Selena and asked, "Why aren’t you asleep yet?"Selena grinned. "I’m too excited! I’m getting married tomorrow, and I can’t sleep."Gavin snorted softly. "Ridiculous."Selena pouted in response. "You’ll eat those words, brother. When it’s your turn to get married, you’ll be too excited to sleep, too!"Gavin scoffed at the idea, dismissing her words entirely. The thought of being too excited to sleep before a wedding? Impossible.Selena, not wanting to argue further, turned away and brought two glasses of water over to them. "Where’s Mr. Cooper?" she asked Gernard."Dad’s abroad at an important meeting," Gernard explained. "He’ll probably only make it back tomorrow."Selena nodded understandingly. "If it’s too rushed, he doesn’t need to come. I don’t want him to overexert himself."Gernard smiled softly. "I’ll let him know."Selena was genuinely happy—her family had

Gernard casually pulled out one of the slips and said, "Let’s see what tasks we’ve got here."Unfolding the paper, he saw the words "sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy." Looking puzzled, Gernard asked, "What does that mean?"Maria explained, "As the name suggests, the groom has to experience all the flavors of life—sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy. No skipping any."With that, she headed into the kitchen and returned a few moments later with a collection of ingredients. "I’ve got lemon juice for sour, sugar for sweet, bitter melon for bitter, and mustard for spicy.""This is great!" Gernard chuckled, clearly enjoying the idea."But I suggest swapping the vinegar for lemon juice—it’ll be even more fun," he added.Maria nodded in agreement. "That works."Turning to Gavin, Gernard said, "There’s one more task. Go ahead, open yours and see what it is."Gavin, clearly less enthusiastic about the whole thing, reluctantly took the other slip of paper and opened it. It read: "Love toast."Gernard p

Aaron entered the room, holding a bouquet in his hands, followed closely by Lance and Lucas."Sweetheart, I’m here to get you!" Aaron shouted as soon as he stepped through the door, his handsome face full of excitement."Hold on a second." Gernard raised his hand, stopping him in his tracks.Aaron paused and looked at him. "I know the drill. What do you have for me? Bring it on!"Gernard chuckled and stepped aside, revealing a table behind him covered with a red cloth. Four red strings dangled from the edge. Maria, standing nearby, explained, "Mr. Fletcher, if you pass the first challenge, you can move forward."Aaron raised an eyebrow. "And what’s the first challenge?"Maria pointed to the red strings. "Pick one and eat whatever it’s attached to. No reactions allowed—if you stay stone-faced, you pass."Aaron grinned and immediately turned to Lance, pulling him forward. "Buddy, it’s your time to shine."Lance remained calm and casually pulled one of the strings. At the end of it was a

Though the letters were a bit crooked, Aaron had succeeded. He placed the bread on the table, glanced at Gavin, and seeing no reaction from him, didn’t dwell on it. His focus was clear—he needed to get to his bride.With the bouquet in hand, Aaron eagerly pushed open the bedroom door, only to find Aveline, her belly prominently showing, standing at the door with the wedding shoes in her hand, clearly blocking the way.She blinked and gave him a warm smile, extending her hand. "Hand over the cash, and I’ll let you through."Without hesitation, Aaron spun around, grabbed two hefty envelopes from one of his groomsmen, and handed them to Aveline.Her arms dropped slightly from the weight, nearly fumbling the envelopes. She looked down in surprise. "Wow, that’s a lot of money!" she said, noting how stuffed they were—likely holding around two thousand dollars each.Aveline hugged the envelopes and shoes tightly, grinning. "Still not enough."Aaron pulled out two more heavy envelopes and teas

Aaron gently slipped the wedding shoes onto Selena’s feet, then leaned in to kiss her. "Wow!" The crowd erupted in cheers and applause.In one swift motion, Aaron scooped Selena into his arms, carrying her out of the room with large strides. As they exited, someone popped a confetti cannon, showering them with colorful streamers, adding to the joyous atmosphere. Laughter and excitement filled the air.A line of luxury cars awaited them, making their way to the hotel with an impressive procession. The street was cleared for their passage, adding to the grandeur of the occasion.At the venue, the banquet hall was vast and opulent, with crystal chandeliers casting a dreamy glow over the entire space. Guests were already seated, chatting and anticipating the ceremony.Selena went to the dressing room, where she changed into a breathtaking wedding gown and had her hair and makeup redone, taking her beauty to another level.Aveline watched, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears.Selena c

All eyes were on Aaron as he stood beneath the spotlight. The usual playfulness and laid-back demeanor were gone, replaced by a look of seriousness and sincerity. He walked with purpose, step by step, to the center of the stage.In the front row sat Aaron’s parents. Though they weren’t entirely pleased with their son’s choice of bride, seeing this formal and committed side of him brought a sense of pride and contentment.Behind them, Aaron’s friends were seated. Lucas and Lance sat together, and Lance leaned over, saying, "Did you notice his hands shaking from the nerves?"Lucas smirked. "And you’re not recording it to use against him later?""Great idea." Lance, clearly amused, pulled out his phone and began recording Aaron’s trembling fingers.Yes, this would give him something to tease Aaron about for years to come.Onstage, the officiant was delivering solemn words of congratulations, and the music began to shift. Aaron turned toward the entrance just as the doors opened, revealing

Sidney, dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, approached Maria, his gaze lingering on her, soaking in every detail. Over the past few months, her life had been nothing short of adventurous. She had traveled to the far north to witness breathtaking auroras, posed with penguins in a remote southern continent, ventured deep into the wilds of an African savannah to observe a massive wildlife migration, and even scaled one of the world's tallest peaks on her own.It was as though she had embraced her true self, living life to the fullest. Every time she posted on social media, you could feel the sense of freedom radiating from her. And now, after such a long time, he was finally seeing her again.Today, she looked elegant in a classic white gown, dignified and graceful, holding a wine bottle in her hands, smiling at him."I..."Sidney began, wanting to say something, but the toasting ceremony was about to start, leaving no room for them to talk.He leaned in closer, speaking quietly as he

One call from Aaron, and in no time, the rest of their friends had arrived. Though it was late, the atmosphere quickly became lively, and naturally, party games were on the agenda.Aveline glanced at the pool, looking eager to dive in.But Lucas, holding her hand, immediately stopped her. "Don’t even think about it. You can’t swim right now."While swimming was fine earlier in her pregnancy, things had progressed. With twins on the way, the risk was too high, and Lucas wasn’t about to let her take any chances.Aveline sighed, her expression falling slightly. "Alright."Seeing her disappointment, Lucas couldn’t bear it. He kissed her forehead and asked, "How about some strawberries?"Aveline adored strawberries, and ever since she got pregnant, her craving for them had only intensified."Yes, please." she nodded with a smile.Lucas brought over a plate of fresh strawberries, feeding her one after another with care.Meanwhile, the others had set up a game of Truth or Dare—a classic that

Jolie stirred, her eyes fluttering open in the dimly lit cabin. The sharp, handsome features of the man before her were so close that she could feel the warmth of his breath. His lips, carrying his familiar scent, gently traced hers, as if torn between waking her and letting her sleep. Her breath hitched, a brief moment of confusion washing over her. Gavin noticed and, in response, pressed a firm kiss to her lips. "Did I wake you?" "You did that on purpose," Jolie replied, her voice soft and husky from sleep. "Mm." Gavin didn’t deny it, his tone unapologetic as he leaned down to kiss her again. Still groggy, Jolie found herself caught off guard, his lips capturing hers with a growing intensity. By the time she realized what was happening, he had deepened the kiss, his tongue teasing and tangling with hers in an intoxicating rhythm. Her breath quickened, and she instinctively pushed against him. Gavin pulled back, only to trail kisses along her cheek and down her neck, his

The night air was cool, a gentle breeze slipping through the car window and lifting the strands of hair framing her face. They fluttered across her vision, briefly distracting her, yet she could still clearly see his eyes. At that moment, the unease and uncertainty stirring in her chest melted away, replaced by an inexplicable sense of calm. It felt as though there was nothing he couldn’t handle. As long as he wanted to. Jolie smiled softly and said, "Alright." When they arrived at the private airstrip, the captain came forward to exchange a few words with Gavin. Standing nearby, Jolie watched and couldn’t resist asking, "How long will you be staying?" Gavin glanced at her. "How long do you want me to stay?" The overly intimate tone of his words, spoken with such casual ease, caught her off guard. Her cheeks flushed immediately—especially since there were others around to hear it. Lowering her gaze shyly, she murmured, "You can stay as long as you want." She turned he

Gavin looked at her, his gaze steady, and replied in a calm voice, "You’ve got the leverage to do it." Oh... Jolie’s heart skipped a beat, her pulse momentarily thrown off rhythm. What was this feeling? It was as if someone was spoiling her, cherishing her unconditionally. Even though it was just a simple conversation, it carried a warmth she couldn’t ignore. For a moment, she realized that what she once thought was affection and care had been nothing but an illusion. A smile unconsciously curved on her lips as her eyes lit up. "Does this mean I can walk around Larbor City like I own the place?" Gavin raised an eyebrow. "Are you a crab?" Jolie burst into laughter, her mood instantly lifted by his quick-witted remark. Her earlier irritation dissipated, replaced by lightheartedness. Whether or not he meant it, the fact that he sided with her made her happy. "I’m full. Should we head out?" she asked, her appetite long gone after everything that had happened earlier.

The girl stared in disbelief, her hands clutching her face. "You hit me?" Jolie blinked innocently at her. "Weren’t you the one insisting I hit you earlier? I just gave you another slap to match your story. You should be used to it by now." "Jolie Quin!" Ian had reached his limit, his voice full of anger as he glared at her. "Apologize to her!" Jolie glanced at him, her expression calm but icy. "Get lost." She had thought he might be reasonable, but clearly, he was blinded by infatuation. She had no patience to deal with him any longer and turned to leave. Before she could take a step, Ian grabbed her arm roughly. "Jolie, you’re not leaving without apologizing! I don’t think I’ve ever wronged you, have I? We used to get along just fine, didn’t we?" "Let go," Jolie said, her brows knitting in disgust. She hated being touched, especially by someone she considered beneath her. Ian tightened his grip, his hand digging into her arm hard enough to cause pain. "Jolie, yo

Jolie was completely baffled, a string of question marks running through her mind. But when the girl suddenly dropped to her knees, it genuinely startled her.She quickly reached out to help her up. "Get up first. We can talk properly."Before Jolie could react, the girl grabbed her hand and slapped herself hard across the face with it.Smack!The crisp sound echoed in the quiet hallway, leaving Jolie frozen in shock."Why did you hit me?" The girl, who had just been crying like an innocent damsel in distress, now clutched her face and loudly accused her. "Ian and I are the real couple! You’re the one coming between us. How could you hit me?"Jolie blinked, completely dumbfounded, as the girl’s voice rang out.A few passersby paused, glancing over to witness the commotion.Meanwhile, Ian, who had been waiting and wondering why his girlfriend hadn’t returned, came looking for her. The scene he walked into—his girlfriend on the ground, crying and accusing Jolie—made him stride forward,

The person in the hallway glanced at her briefly but quickly looked away, as though she were a stranger. Jolie’s hand, lifted halfway to wave, stalled in mid-air.What... was that? Gavin noticed her reaction and asked in a low voice, "What’s wrong?" "Nothing," Jolie replied, shaking her head and brushing it off. The man outside was Ian. Pretending not to know her was probably his way of avoiding unnecessary trouble—after all, they had already "broken up." The door to their private room shut completely, and Gavin hadn’t seen Ian or his group. He turned back to her and asked, "Do you come here often?" "Yeah," Jolie nodded. "I come here a lot with friends." So, this was one of her favorite hidden gems. The fact that she was willing to share it with him felt significant somehow. Gavin caught himself lingering on that thought and was momentarily taken aback by his own reaction. He kept his expression neutral, not letting on what had crossed his mind. The food arrived qui

The reason it wasn’t the same was simple—her plan would fall apart if she got caught.Of course, that wasn’t something she could admit.Jolie simply said, "I just don’t want any unnecessary complications. Since you’ve already arranged the flight, let’s just leave directly."Gavin’s dark eyes fixed on her for a moment, but he didn’t press the issue.It was clear she didn’t want to talk about it any further, so he let it drop.When the elevator doors opened, the two of them walked out together. A car was already waiting at the entrance. Gavin, ever the gentleman, opened the door for her.The car pulled away from Cooper Enterprises, and Gavin asked, "What do you want to eat?"Jolie, busy typing on her phone, replied, "I know a good restaurant."It was a cozy place she loved, one she often visited with her friends."Alright," Gavin replied, pulling out his phone to respond to some emails. With his work condensed into such a tight schedule, he seized every spare moment to handle it.Jolie p

Gavin suddenly recalled Wilfried's words, "That girl doesn’t even like you."Lowering his gaze slightly, Gavin pushed the thought aside without explanation, his expression remaining cool and indifferent as he watched her. After Jolie finished looking through the photos, she turned to him and asked, "Why do you have pictures of all these women?" "My father brought them over," Gavin replied. "Oh." Jolie nodded knowingly and didn’t press further. It was easy enough to figure out—the Cooper family obviously wanted him to consider an arranged marriage, so they sent over these photos for him to choose from. She could understand that. In fact, she even helped him look through them, just in case one of these women turned out to be a good match for him. After all, their relationship wasn’t meant to last forever. When he grew tired of her and she had her fun, they’d part ways, and everything would return to normal. As she neatly organized the photos and placed them back on the ta

It was Jolie’s first time visiting Cooper Enterprises, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about the place.No, to be precise, it was her first time stepping into any corporate office. The Quin family also had company, but she had never visited, nor had Daisy or Terence ever asked her to.The private elevator for the CEO was stunningly opulent, its polished surface gleaming like a mirror, perfectly reflecting their images. Jolie’s heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement.The assistant glanced at her and said with a warm smile, "Miss Quin, there’s no need to be nervous. Mr. Cooper will definitely be delighted to see you."Jolie nodded and replied, "I’m not nervous."The elevator moved swiftly, and as they neared the executive office, Jolie adjusted her cap and mask, pulling them snugly to hide her face as much as possible.Meanwhile, near the adjacent employee elevator, Rosalie was holding a stack of files, ready to head downstairs.She froze the moment she s
