After Miya had calmed down, she went to the bathroom. She removed her makeup and freshened up. Then, she picked up her phone to share her experiences tonight with Silvia and the others. She talked about Jason's proposal, the encounter with the scumbag, and the kiss with Jason.Wendy firmly wrote, ‘If a man were willing to give away his entire wealth for me, I'd marry him in a heartbeat!’She expressed her wholehearted approval of Jason through these words.Having seen Julian's confessions to Nora, Silvia was much calmer. Nevertheless, she encouraged Miya, ‘Jason is a really great guy. Giving him a chance would be good for you.’Jane was also fully supportive of Jason. ‘You should treasure a man who loves you so much.’Thus, Jason received unanimous approval in the group chat with her best friends.Miya herself had nothing to say. Although she initially had reservations about him being a year younger and his youthful appearance making him appear less mature, he had proven
He would have to leave after dinner. In fact, he would definitely stay if Nora allowed him to, but Nora simply ignored him.Even if he came to Old Pierce Manor, Nora only treated him according to her mood. She would talk to him and pay attention to him when she was in a good mood, but she would not go downstairs to see him or would just ignore him if she was in a bad mood. Julian did not get tired or mad at all; instead, he would always be smiling brightly whenever he came. This caused Nora to feel angry every time she saw his smile, making her want to ignore him even more.Julian felt somewhat innocent and helpless. He did not mean to smile like this, but he could not help it when he thought about his impending double happiness.It was truly a double happiness. He would be marrying the woman he loved, and she would be giving birth to his child. He would be accomplishing two major events in his life: Getting married and having a child at the same time. How could he not be happy?
Greg felt heartbroken when he thought of these, then he got up and turned around to leave. “Mr. Greg…”Julian walked over and stopped Greg, who simply glared at him angrily and barked, “What do you think you’re doing?!”Julian stood still in place and looked at Greg with an expression full of sincerity on his handsome face as he said, “I’ll treat Nora well in the future, and I’ll never let her down again.”Julian’s gentle words sounded in the dining room as he gave Greg his assurance that he would treat Nora well. Greg was not the only one who heard these words; Nora, who was outside the dining room, heard them too.Nora bit her lip, and her eyes turned red. She had been ignoring him for the past few days, but no matter how angry she was, her anger dissipated little by little with the exquisite breakfast he prepared every morning. It was not because of how exquisite or delicious the breakfast he made was, but it was because she was moved by his thoughtfulness and concern for he
Julian felt that he only needed to improve and manage his relationship with Ophelia in the future because of this matter. Ophelia would help him to deal with Greg then.The process of obtaining the marriage certificate went smoothly, but Nora was suddenly in a bad mood again when she saw the two copies of the marriage certificates and thought about how she had handed her life over just like that.She felt inexplicable panic, fear, confusion, and hesitation.Nora was still in a daze when Julian held her hand and returned to the car with her.After Julian leaned forward to help her fasten her seatbelt, he glanced at Nora and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”Nora snapped out of it and finally met his gaze. Julian could see through Nora’s inner thoughts with just a glance. He snorted loudly and said, “Don’t tell me you regret it.”Nora bit her lip. Julian glared at her fiercely and said, “It’s useless even if you regret it!”He then snatched the marriage certificate from her hand
“Don’t worry. I’ll teach Nora well.”Julian was about to ask him why he had suddenly had a change of heart, but he noticed the smile on Rowan’s face as he said, “I’ll teach her well so that she won't suffer any injustice or grievance in this marriage. I'll teach her how to make herself look even more attractive, fashionable, and charming.”After hearing Rowan say these words in a good mood, Julian felt as if he was going to have a heart attack.‘What kind of teaching is that? He’s clearly going to teach her how to cuckold me!’Julian had a terrible headache when he thought about how he would have to deal with a neurotic person like Rowan for the next few decades. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a big sip of red wine as he used alcohol to numb the pain caused by Rowan. Rowan, who was sitting across from him, continued talking as if nothing had happened. “Now that you and Nora have obtained your marriage certificate, don’t you think that you should abide by e
Miya had to acknowledge that Jason was truly a good boyfriend. He bought a lot of specialties from Detroit and nutritional supplements for her parents in advance, which gave her a headache. She initially did not have any plans to bring anything back home. She wanted to give her parents money to buy what they needed when she got home. This was mainly because it would be inconvenient for her to carry a lot of things by herself. She had been working in Blackstone for many years and had never brought much home with her whenever she visited during the holidays. Instead, she would always give them money directly to save herself the trouble and effort, but Jason had gotten her a bunch of things to bring home now. She frowned instinctively. When Jason saw her expression, he hurriedly said, “Let me send you back. It’d be convenient if you put everything in the car.”Miya stood in the living room with her arms folded in front of her chest. She glanced at the pile of gifts, then at Jason. He
He was very conscientious and homely. Miya felt that having such a man as her boyfriend saved her a lot of worries. She did not need to worry about him cheating on her, or worry that he would not be ambitious or strive for improvement as he would always be reading and learning to improve himself whenever he had time. She suddenly felt that such a man would be a good life partner. However, she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of the university he was at. Jason frowned and defended himself. “I won’t do that. I will only be missing you so much that I won’t even be able to sleep.”Miya pretended to be disappointed and sighed. “You’re so good at sweet talking. I really don’t know if you would say such sweet words to other women behind my back.”Jason protested, “Miya, how can you think of me like this? The only person I sweettalk is you. When have you ever seen me acting intimately with other women?”Jason believed that he would never have any second thoughts in this as
His tone sounded indifferent, which made Miya wonder if he was angry because she had insisted on not letting him come with her.She felt that things were progressing too quickly. How could she take Jason back to meet her parents after only a week of dating? Moreover, he even wanted to take her back home to meet his parents the day after they had just confirmed their relationship. There were so many variables in the future, so she wanted to take things step by step to feel at ease. There were indeed some differences in their understanding of how to deal with relationships.She did not know whether she was being too conservative or whether he was being too aggressive. Miya thought that they should communicate and have a good talk on this issue after she came back. It had been more than half a year since Miya had left home after the New Year. She used to work in Blackstone, and it was difficult for her to come back home because it was far away. She would only come home to visit her
