Adrian considered Lucius' request. After thinking about it, there was indeed a point. He had also heard much from business relations about the company's rapid growth under Lucius' leadership.Adrian crossed his legs, looking at Lucius with a serious gaze. "If you get married, will you continue to work at the helm of the company?"Lucius nodded his head. "Of course." He had gone this far and this hard; there was no way he could just let go."Alright, I take your word for it." Adrian raised his right hand up with a friendly smile. "I agree to your request to marry Riley."Lucius smiled happily. His heart was filled with happiness beyond measure. Adrian got up and patted Lucius' shoulder lightly. He returned it with a warm hug. "Thank you, Grandpa."Adrian also felt proud of Lucius because he had proved to all of Carson's family members that he was indeed great and could raise Carson's good name.Lucius released the hug. His eyes sparkled with emotion. "I have to tell this to Riley.""Ye
After enjoying their time together, Lucius took Riley home because there was still much work to do. Abriel had also called and texted him, reminding him of the crucial meeting he had to attend after lunch.Lucius opened the car door and helped Riley down slowly. He stroked Riley's stomach, then kissed her forehead lovingly. "I'm back to work. If you need anything, just call the servants. I've assigned them specifically to look after you and serve you."Riley nodded her head. She had been feeling better since she met Lucius again. They hugged each other for a while before Lucius finally got back into the car after some waiters approached Riley."Be careful!" Riley waved at Lucius. The man waved back as he drove, driving his vehicle away from the spacious courtyard of the house.Lucius didn't take long to reach the office in less than half an hour. He drove the car at high speed because the road was quiet with no other drivers. Arriving at the office, Lucius was immediately confronted b
Riley replied with a nod of her head. Eva, who was happy, rushed into Riley's arms. "Oh my, I'm so happy. Congratulations, yes. You're finally going to be a mom soon.""Thank you." Riley was happy to hear her cousin's congratulations. However, she felt bad about not being able to eat the food Eva had brought for her. "But what about the oily beef? You already bought it.""No problem. I'll just eat by myself later." Eva replied lightly. She raised her eyebrows, signaling Xander to carry the paper bag of beef teriyaki into the car so that Riley wouldn't get sick from the smell.Xander nodded, quickly obeying Eva's orders without saying a word. Meanwhile, Riley invited Eva to return to small talk in the living room."So, how is your relationship with Lucius? Has his grandfather approved of you getting married?" Eva changed the subject after chatting about the baby's development in Riley's womb."It was hard at first, but eventually, Lucius got through it all. And now, Grandpa Adrian has
Eva widened her eyes even more with her mouth gaping. She was speechless with disbelief. Something inside her heart was swelling, making her want to cry. Her eyes felt hot and stinging until the tears finally managed to run down her cheeks.Xander placed the ring on the ring finger of Eva's left hand. The sparkling 18-carat diamonds mixed with 24-carat white gold looked beautiful against Eva's fair skin. With a warm gaze, a straight face, and a faint smile on the man's face, he was able to make Eva unable to move.Eva burst into tears, then fell into Xander's arms with tears in her eyes. "Thank you. I'm so happy."Xander stroked Eva's back while kissing the top of her head. It was his goal to make her happy and content. Xander releases Eva's embrace and pays for the ring. Xander has to pay a high price, but it's nothing compared to how good it makes him feel to see Eva happy.From a distance, there happened to be someone who had noticed them. A beautiful woman stood behind a wall post
"Lucius! Why did you leave?" Riley started to panic and get scared. She didn't know whereLucius left without saying goodbye. She didn't want to part with Lucius.Riley rose slowly from her bed, her legs hanging from the gurney. Her head was dizzyas he was about to get his feet on the floor. When Riley managed to get one ofher feet to the floor, her balance suddenly dropped. Riley wavered, almostjust falling to the floor.Just then, Lucius arrived. The man's eyes widened perfectly. "Oh my, Riley. What are you doing?" He ran quickly over to Riley and lifted her up. Returned her body to the bed.Lucuus' heart was racing. Just a few seconds too late, maybe things bad things would happen to Riley and her child. "Where are you going? Why didn't you call me? Or a nurse? What if you fall down?"Riley pondered. She hadn't thought of that. Riley stroked her stomach, worried that if anything happened to her bad for the child in her womb if Lucius had not come sooner. "Sorry, just afraid of y
Riley's wedding dress was fixed. All the wedding arrangements had been finalized. The happy day was on the horizon. Tomorrow was Riley and Lucius' wedding day. Today, everyone in the Carson household was busy. Riley was no exception; she had to prepare to be a bride. This was her second wedding, but she still felt nervous and afraid of making mistakes.Several maids from the beauty house provided by the event organizer came today to give Riley treatment. Each of them carried a medium-sized suitcase containing the equipment to be used.One of the maids knocked on Riley's door. Eva got up from the bed and opened the door. The maid bowed respectfully. "Excuse me, Miss. The salesgirls from the beauty house have come to give Miss Riley a treatment."Riley nodded his head. "Please allow them to enter my room now." The maid interrupted and excused herself from her presence. She quickly exited the bed and entered the bathroom to change into a kimono towel.Eva accompanied Riley to do some sel
Riley held a bouquet of fresh white flowers in her hand. She and Lucius were facing backward, their backs to the guests. They were all getting ready, even to the point of hunting for the frontmost spot so that they could catch the bouquet that Riley was about to throw.The host raised his five fingers up. "Are you ready?" Everyone shouted in unison, saying ready. "Okay, 5, 4, 3, 2 ...."Riley and Lucius grasped the bouquet together, lifted it high up, then threw it together forcefully backward on the count of one. Shouts and applause went up in the air as the bouquet was caught by someone in the crowd."I caught it!" One of the invited guests shouted loudly, prancing in excitement as he managed to get the flower hill from the bride and groom.It is said that whoever gets a bouquet of flowers thrown by the bridal couple, then that person will soon follow down the aisle as well. If the saying really happened, that person seems very happy to be getting married soon.Everyone there applau
Lucius and Riley's wedding was very lavish. Not only during the day, the festivity lasted until the climax of the evening party, which was the dance party. Every one present during the day had time to go home and change their clothes into dance clothes according to the dress code on the invitation card.The dress code on the night of the ball was black and gold, in contrast to the main wedding party in the afternoon. The garden decorations also changed drastically from before. If the decorations were simple in the afternoon because they were only white-themed, at the evening of the dance party, they were more diverse, complete with lights that enhanced the decoration.Riley wore a long black dress with handmade silver and gold thread embroidery. The gold and silver thread embroidery lines formed a beautiful flower carving around the stomach and waist area.Riley's hair was handmade too. If during the day, it was done in a beautiful flowing updo with white ribbons and pretty little flo
Riley, Lucius, and Lurren prepared neatly. All the servants were busy preparing the dinner menu to welcome Adrian's arrival. The food provided used only a few spices because Adrian could not eat too many spicy foods.Lucius reached into his pants pocket, dialing Wilson's phone number to also come to his house. The common thing that Lucius did when Adrian came to visit was to check on his grandfather's health. Even though his grandfather was in good condition, Lucius still paid attention and checked every so often.Wilson, who had now become Lucius' personal physician, immediately left for the Carson family home. It didn't take long; Wilson arrived at the Carson residence in just fifteen minutes.Lucius warmly welcomed Wilson with a hug. Lurren, who knew Wilson's arrival, immediately ran over, teasing Wilson by taking the medical tools in Wilson's pocket."Oh, my God." Wilson shook his head. It was not a new thing that Lurren had done to Wilson. There had been many times when Wilson ha
Riley was running with her breath taken away. Her sweat was pouring down her body. She stopped several times just to wipe off the sweat. She continued to run while waving her hands, calling out to someone she was chasing.A little boy laughed out loud as he looked at Riley. It turned out that Riley was running after his four-year-old son. The boy's name was Lauren. He was mischievous, exploratory, and good at hiding.Riley found him a few minutes ago, but the boy ran at full speed. Riley bent her body while scrambling her waist. "Oh my, Lurren. Come here!"One of the maids also ran behind Riley with a rice bowl filled with vegetable soup with chicken. Riley tapped her forehead so hard that it made a loud sound. "Lurren, eat first!"The maid was so tired that he could no longer run. Riley took the bowl in the maid's hand and continued running after Lurren, who was now getting farther away from her sight. Riley was also tired of chasing after him, but she wasn't satisfied if she hadn't
Lucius hung up the phone after the doctor on the other side said he would be there soon. He quickly put his cell phone on the nightstand, then hurried to change the wet clothes still attached to Riley's body.Deftly, Lucius' hands stripped Riley of her clothes one by one. He took a change of clothes from the closet. Not a dress, but an evening gown because there were no more clothes that Riley could wear. All the clothes they had brought were, of course, honeymoon clothes. Lucius didn't know that it would turn out like this, so he didn't prepare a change of clothes other than the white dress that Riley had bought at the shopping center.Unfortunately, they only bought one dress, while the rest were evening dresses that Riley wanted to wear to spend the last night of the month for them at this resort. Lucius didn't care and quickly changed Riley's clothes; the important thing was that the clothes were not too revealing so that the doctor could examine her, and Riley wouldn't get sicker
Madam Lyla and her husband waved at Riley and Lucius, who had come out of their yard. Lucius and Riley were deliberately walking to enjoy the beauty of the beach. Riley also wanted to always hug and hold hands with Lucius.Riley and Lucius enjoyed their walk in the afternoon while looking at the reddish-orange sky. They hugged each other until the rain poured down on the earth without permission."Ah, no. You can't get caught in the rain." Lucius raised his hands above Riley's head, shielding her from the rain.They walked into a restaurant on the side of the road. Riley's dress was white, making it see-through and exposing some small body parts.Lucius, who realized that immediately hugged Riley's body, causing everyone in the restaurant to stare at them. Riley blushed with embarrassment. "Lucius, everyone is looking at us."Lucius tightened his embrace and covered Riley's exposed body under his clothes. "Don't bother. You must be cold too. I don't want you to feel cold."Riley was f
Riley and Lucius spent their honeymoon happily. They were initially going on honeymoon for only four days, but they spent two weeks because Lucius didn't want to be disturbed by anyone.All the work problems had been solved by Abriel on Lucius' orders. Luckily, the work problems were solved easily because there was no significant work, so Abriel could handle it himself without disturbing Lucius, who was on his honeymoon.The next day, it was time for them to go home because it was the last day of their honeymoon. Lucius took Riley for a short walk to the shopping center to buy clothes. Riley seemed happy to hear it, especially since the shopping center in that area was famous for its excellent quality of clothes.Lucius and Riley walked into a clothing store. Riley was interested in one of the dresses displayed in front of the shop window. The dress was a unique design made by a famous designer in the area, not because of the design either, but because the dress was made of a very com
Lucius drove the vehicle at a moderate speed. The wind was blowing gently on Riley and Lucius' faces. Riley seemed to enjoy their journey and didn't know where Lucius would take her.Riley looked out the window, which was full of tall trees. He had never been to that area before. "Where are we going?"Lucius was silent. He didn't want to tell Riley where they were going because this particular gift was a honeymoon to the beach not far from the Carson family home. It wasn't that he didn't want to take her on a honeymoon to another city, but he was worried about Riley and the child in her womb.More or less, Lucius knew that Riley should be energized, especially when traveling long distances by air or land like this. Hence, Lucius would only take Riley on a honeymoon nearby. Moreover, they had just had a wedding yesterday and a wild and extraordinary long night battle. Of course, it would be very tiring for Riley if they traveled far away.Riley pursed her lips forward. "So, you don't w
As the night wore on, Lucius and Riley's play became hotter and more passionate. Both of them had passed the peak for the third time, but as if they were never satisfied, the game continued wildly. Lucius seemed to forget that his partner was pregnant, and Riley seemed to forget that a baby was in her stomach.Riley was no less wild. She showed another side that Lucius had never seen before. Riley was good at keeping up with Lucius's game, even to the point of looking tireless for a pregnant woman.Riley played on top of Lucius. Her hands rested backward on Lucius' knees to support her body. While her hips moved back and forth, along with the pounding. Occasionally Riley seemed to close her eyes, enjoying the sting in her intimate area down there.Lucius enjoyed Riley's play, but he was impatient and got up. Both stomped and moved, giving each other a rhythm that stung their intimate organs. Both moaned and sighed loudly, along with the flow of desire inside.Unexpectedly, the bed the
As the night wore on, the wedding dance party finally ended. One by one, the invited guests began to leave. The time on the wall clock, deliberately placed in the middle of the garden to make it look like a fairy tale, was already half past eleven at night.Riley had already entered the room. While Lucius still had to escort his business client home to the front yard with small talk. Lucius followed Riley into the room until all the essential guests had left.Riley had removed all the makeup on her face using a makeup remover. The hairdo had also been removed. Riley just came out of the bathroom wearing a white kimono towel. Her body felt refreshed after cleansing herself with warm water and therapeutic scented soap to calm and relax her body.Riley sat in front of the dressing table mirror. She poured the night serum into her palm and rubbed it on her face. Cold, refreshing feeling in the pores of her cheek skin. She was already feeling tired after a long day of wedding festivities,
Norman and Grace, Eva's parents, also attended the ball. They hadn't missed a detail of the wedding since the afternoon. Of course, they were surprised because it differed from the party earlier in the day. Norman looked amazed for a while at how luxurious Riley and Lucius' wedding was.One of the servants came over to them with a tray containing several red beverage glasses. The glasses looked luxurious, with beautiful carvings on each side. Of course, it was costly for a set of glasses. Norman knew that because the small glasses were luxury items displayed in several large stores.Norman picked up one of the glasses and looked at the details to ensure it was indeed the glass he had seen that day. He approached his wife, bowing slightly. "Eva's going to have a fancy wedding like this."Grace only responded with a nod of her head. Norman pursed his lips, arrogantly thinking he could afford to make Eva's wedding even more lavish than this. Who wouldn't be jealous of a wedding like this
