Jara brushed her off with a cursory, "Oh!" Then, Anderson asked her, "Aren't you playing cards? How come you're out here? Is the card game over?" His question reminded Clarissa why she was there, and she answered, "Oh, the game is over. We're a bit hungry and ready for some snacks. Do you want something to eat? We'll ask the kitchen to cook more if you want." Anderson looked at Jameson and Jara for their opinions. For some reason, Jara was sweating profusely. While he used a towel to wipe his sweat, he answered, "I'll have a bit." Then, Jameson also nodded, "I'll have some too." Everyone had replied, so Clarissa said, "All right, I'll go and tell them." Then, she turned and went inside. However, she had hardly taken a few steps before Jara called out. "Hey, wait a minute." Hearing that, she turned and asked, "What's wrong?" With a huge smile, Jara replied, "When you go inside, ask Emmeline to come out. Just say I a
The picture formed by the drones showed Emmeline and Jara had grown up. Jara left the orphanage while Emmeline remained. Softly, Jara continued, "Teenage love was filled with twists and turns. When we were growing up, we can be carefree and cast all worries aside. But, when we have grown up, there are responsibilities and things that must be taken care of." "The time had come for him to leave where they grew up together. On the day he left, he told her to look for him if she misses him." "He knew that she was stubborn and independent although she appeared to be dependent on him. In his heart, he knew that she may never look for him." "How could she be willing to be a parasite and depend on him? He knew that she wouldn't. Then, he vowed to give himself two years to do what he wanted to do and return to her side." When Jara finished saying that, the lights turned again. A new scene appeared. It showed the time when they met again.
"Emmeline, did you say you'll marry me? Oh." Emmeline was also deeply touched. Although Jara did not answer her earlier, and the thorn in her heart remained, she did not regret the decision she made. Memories of her time together with Jara flashed through her mind. She told herself that she should trust her feelings at this time. Since life was short, why waste time on misunderstandings and separation? As they hugged each other blissfully, Clarissa and the rest of the onlookers were moved by such a scene. Bursting with excitement, Lauren said, "That's amazing! I never thought I'd see this in my life. It's so touching!" Smiling broadly, Clarissa said, "The two of them are now settled. Next up will be the two of you." As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows, turned, and looked at Isaac. Faking a cough, Isaac blushed and said, "Yep. Almost. I'll get ready soon." The girl beside him turned red with embarrassment. This wa
Clarissa did not know why the others were not up yet, but the answer was clear to Anderson. All men think alike. The previous night's event was stimulating, and every man would do what Anderson had done. Instead, it would be a surprise if anyone got up early. Without giving Clarissa a chance to wake up the others, he pulled her to the dining room for a meal. Then, he packed his luggage to leave for home. Lauren woke up behind them and found that they had all packed up their things. Quickly, she packed her luggage and grumbled that Clarissa did not wake her. As she only stayed for a night, Lauren did not have much to pack, but she did have some trinkets she bought the night before. Once done with packing, they bade farewell to Emmeline and Jara and left for the airport. They took the one-thirty flight in the afternoon for Ascijian. It was six o'clock in the evening when they arrived in the country. It had been a long time since Clarissa saw her
As Clarissa said that, she stretched out her hands and moved one step at a time. Anderson smiled at them playing as he leaned on the door with his arms folded across his chest. Surprisingly, Marf did not make a sound this time. Perhaps he had learned from his previous experience or his sister. Thus, Clarissa could only rely on her instincts and feel her way forward. She kept calling out as she moved, "Marf, Anne, where are you? Hide yourselves. I'm coming to get you!" In one of the corners, Anne stifled Marf's laugher with her hand as they watched Clarissa moving step by step towards the door. At the door, Anderson looked at Clarissa with glee. At this moment, Clarissa was wondering where the children were hiding. Then, her eyes lit up as her fingers brushed against some fabric. "Ha, I got you!" Quickly, she grabbed hold of the clothes while her other hand stretched out and grabbed the wrist. Immediately, she realized that it
As he spoke, he moved his head closer to her. Somehow, they ended up kissing each other. That afternoon, as the sun shone on their faces, it seemed to shine on their hearts as well, making them warm. In the end, they decided that the wedding would be held on the third day next month. They heard from Uncle Poick that it would be a good day to get married. As for the location, Emmeline had always liked the sea, but other seasides were suitable for security reasons, and Jara was worried that someone would take advantage to sabotage the wedding, so he decided to set up the location on a private island. This island had been bought a long time ago. When Emmeline asked him the name of the island, he looked at her deeply and replied with a smile. Suddenly, her face turned red. Because he answered, "This island is called Emme Island." Emme Island... Of course, she knew what he meant. Only then did she know that he had bought her an
The priest declared again, "Groom, you may now kiss your bride." But at the end of the day, the atmosphere was already ruined. At this time, both of them stood face to face with heavy thoughts, and they were no longer in the mood for that. Of course, Jara could notice that she had lost her interest too, so in the end, he only kissed her on her forehead to complete the ceremony. After the ceremony, it was time for the banquet. As Emmeline needed to change into a new gown, Jara accompanied her back to the hotel. Naturally, she would bring along the gifts given by the guests. Even if she didn't like Luca, she couldn't embarrass him in front of so many guests. However, when Emmeline reached out to grab the box, her vision suddenly went black as she swayed a little. Seeing that, Jara quickly grabbed hold of her. "What's wrong?" After a few seconds, Emmeline came around and shook her head. "It's nothing." When Jara heard tha
Then, with a frown, she covered her forehead with her hand. Seeing that, Jara hurriedly placed his hand over hers nervously. Even his voice was tensed up. "What's wrong? It is a headache? Or are there other places that you're not feeling well?" However, Emmeline looked at him in a daze. After a while, she shook her head. "No, it's just that my temples twitched, and it was a little bit painful, but I'm fine now." As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced around. At that moment, the room was crowded with people. Originally, everyone was waiting outside in the living room. When they heard that she woke up, they all rushed in. But because she had just woken up, they were afraid to make a noise. So they had been holding back and said nothing. Looking at them blankly, Emmeline questioned. "What's wrong? Why are you all here? Why are you looking at me?" Clarissa frowned. Somehow she had a feeling that there was something wrong with Emmeline'
