Sure enough, there were cards with names on the table. Hers was beside Joshua's.She looked at her seat and then looked in Joshua's direction. She realized that he was still standing on the stage and looking in her direction.She pointed to her seat, meaning to ask whether she was supposed to sit there.Joshua nodded at her. Then, he continued talking to the emcee.Not long after, Jacob, Jared, Hector, and Benjamin came over one after another. They all greeted her.Sylvia was almost younger than all of them and felt unworthy of being in their presence.Isobel and Hugo made their entrance. Everyone's attention was on them.Joshua got off the stage and sat next to Sylvia. He was also looking at the stage.Sylvia felt that Hugo and Isobel were really a perfect match. He was so handsome and had such a strong aura. Isobel was also especially beautiful. They were like a crown prince and his princess…Sylvia was incredibly envious."They're so handsome and beautiful," Sylvia couldn'
"Isobel is not bad. She's the first one in our family to get married," Joshua said.It looked like his playing the bad cop in front of Hugo hadn't gone to waste—Hugo had finally changed his nationality to Merania. To be honest, he was pretty impressed by Hugo's sacrifice. He'd offended the royal family by doing this. If he didn't like Ella, he could've just married another."Joshua, what are you talking about? You're the first one in our family to get married, okay?" Jared said to Joshua.These words made Joshua quiet down for a moment. Thinking about it, it was true. However, he had never felt anything. He couldn't even remember Sylvia's name."That's right," Sylvia said aggrievedly when she heard Jared's words. "You have no idea how embarrassed I feel to be around your cousins. I keep feeling like I'm still single."The alcohol from earlier was boosting her courage."My, my. Sylvia's upset that you didn't give her a wedding, Joshua! You need to take the initiative!" Benjamin sa
“How can I do that? What’s yours is yours. I’ll return them to you,” she said innocently."Return them if you want, but I'll be returning to Windmere City in a few days."Sylvia thought about it and asked, "Are you going to stay in Windmere City for the rest of your life?""Yes. The company and Grandpa are there. That's a responsibility I can't shirk."Sylvia was a little dejected when she heard that. Since she was already married to Joshua, did that mean that she had to go to Windmere City in the future? It was quite unfamiliar to her and so far away from home.She lowered her head silently."What's wrong?" Joshua tilted his head and asked her."Oh, it's nothing," she said. Going to a strange place was so lonely. Moreover, she wasn't very close to him.It wasn't far from Genovia International Hotel to Sylvia's house. They arrived very quickly.Sylvia got out of the car. Joshua watched her enter the villa. Before leaving, he watched her enter the living room through the carved
As soon as she lay on the bed, Sylvia received Joshua's WhatsApp message: [I'm almost home. I have to go back and talk to Isobel about buying a house, so I won't be heading over.]Sylvia took a screenshot of her conversation with Joshua and sent it to her family's group chat.Sylvia: [Look, he's not coming. I didn't say anything at all.]Nelson: [Are you feeling smug now?]Sylvia sent a snoring emoji to let them know she was gonna sleep.However, Nelson felt that what Sylvia said just now made sense. Although she and Joshua had already registered their marriage, the two of them had yet to hold a wedding. There was no sense of ceremony, so it was inevitable that the two of them would forget that they were already married. They had never been in a relationship before, and now, Nelson did not want them to often forget that they were husband and wife.Moreover, Genovia did not know about the marriage between the Burton and Lawrence families. It would definitely make their stocks shoo
Sure enough, everyone started talking about buying a house.After talking about Isobel buying a house, Damien asked Neil to check the dates for Joshua and Sylvia's wedding.There were still more than two months before the summer vacation, and there wasn't much time to prepare for a wedding.Sylvia only learned of this news after she woke up. Although it was not a bolt from the blue, and she had expected it, it was still quite sudden. She sat on the bed and looked at the darkening sky for a long time, just like her gradually darkening heart.Joshua was a gentleman and a very good man, but as a husband, she still felt she couldn't enter his heart. How could she think of him as her husband if she didn't understand him at all?After a few days, she returned to Emmeria to continue her studies.She went to Celeste's school to look for her during this period. They chatted for a long time and even talked about their thoughts on marriage.Celeste was quite open-minded now. Things between
Genovia International Hotel was the most luxurious hotel in Genovia. In addition, Isobel and Hugo's wedding was held here. It was a good start, so Damien thought that all the children's weddings would be held in this hotel.This was because he saw that Isobel and Hugo were very happy after their marriage. He wanted to pass on this happiness.In the Genovia International Hotel, Joshua and Sylvia were indeed the two most eye-catching people.There was a car parked outside the Genovia International Hotel. It was a red Mercedes-Benz with a very beautiful woman wearing sunglasses inside…However, because the window was only half lowered, no one could see her entire face. However, the half of her face that was revealed was already beautiful enough.She kept looking at the hotel with a look of despair and hope. She thought to herself, 'Joshua, we're finally taking separate paths. I heard your bride comes from as good a family as yours, and she's young and pretty. She's better than me in
Sylvia stayed in Joshua's room on their wedding night, feeling extremely nervous…After that, they returned to the Burton family together and were about to set off for Windmere City.After all, she had to familiarize herself with Joshua's life.Sylvia applied for half a month's leave from school, citing her marriage as the reason.Initially, the teacher wanted to give her more time off, but Sylvia said, "No need!"Today, Joshua didn't force Sylvia. He said that he would sleep on the sofa.Even in the Lawrence family, Joshua's room was very big. Everyone's room was very big.Above their room was Isobel and Hugo's room.The two of them went to Deltz for two months and came back. The house they bought was not completely ready yet, so they were still living in the Lawrence family manor.However, Isobel's room had already been moved upstairs because the room upstairs was larger."Oh, right. I'll return your books to you." Sylvia placed the three books she borrowed from Joshua on t
For the past three days, Sylvia and Joshua had been living separately. Hearing the commotion upstairs was indeed quite unbearable for Sylvia.The next night, she couldn't sleep and suddenly felt sorry for herself.After all, she was a woman who was pretty outstanding in all aspects. Why did she have to sleep in separate beds after finding a husband? Did they have to sleep in separate beds until the divorce? Or until they died? What a loss this life would've been!Sylvia was suddenly enlightened. She couldn't continue like this!Anyway, she and Joshua were already bound to each other. They'd have to spend the rest of their lives together whether they got along well, so she obviously hoped they'd have a good life together.So, she had to take the initiative to get closer to him."J-Joshua?" In the darkness, Sylvia called out to Joshua.It seemed that this was the first time she called his name.Joshua was already half-asleep. When he heard this voice in his sleep, he did not know
Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the
Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce
Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres
Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec
Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use
For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student
On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon
"Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A
After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
