Chapter 1209

Author: Ginger Bud
Tanner was stunned.

“I know very well how much you loathe and hate me. You're being nice to me because you had to. It's like a task for you to make both our families happy. It isn't that I have to be grateful to every man that wants to marry me. I know how bad my reputation is. Even if no one wants to marry me, I won't shamelessly stick to you, so you can rest assured.

“After all, I was once loved by all the Santiagos in the past. Even if a storm has ravaged a delicate rose, you can't deny that it was once a beautiful flower.

“You reap what you sow. It's my own mistake for getting myself into my current situation, and I don't plan to forget about it. The price I have to pay will never allow me to seek a happy and secure life by committing myself to a man.”

When she finished speaking, she pushed Tanner away. Pulling her suitcase, she headed out without turning her head back once.

Tanner stood frozen stiff on the spot as he tightened his fists.

    Lucy lowered her head to look at her phone. She had sent him a message before coming here.Naomi waited with her for a while and said, “Why don't we go for a walk first? We'll meet up with him when he arrives.”Lucy thought for a while and said, “Alright then.”She then sent a message to Francisco.Both of them went to the shopping mall before heading to a restaurant. Lucy was starving, and she began complaining after taking her seat, “He really has stood us up. He should've told us instead if he doesn't want to come. He shouldn't have said yes to us and not show up later.”As she flipped through the menu, she continued angrily. “All good-looking guys are liars!”Naomi chuckled. “It’s okay. I think we can have a lot of fun as well if it’s only us two.”“You’re right. There are so many good-looking guys in the world. If this one is unreliable, we can always look for another one,” Lucy said. It seemed to Naomi that she was not angry anymore, and she gave her a sheepish grin.Lucy

    Naomi paused for a split second, turned her head, and looked at Francisco, who just so happened to be glancing at her too. She then refuted Lucy immediately. “Nonsense. Where are the similarities? Both our colors look very different, okay?”“Both of you have bright-colored clothing on, while mine is dark-colored.” Lucy grabbed the hem of the front of her black down jacket and covered her chest and abdomen.Before Naomi could say anything, Francisco laughed. “It’s just a coincidence.”After the meal, Lucy proposed that the three of them could go to the movies. And when they got to the movie theater, she skimmed through the several movies that were listed on the screen and decided to watch a horror movie. “Let’s watch this today and make it a challenge. What do you guys think?”When more than two people were watching a horror movie, the atmosphere in the theater would become much more interesting than that of a romance movie. Especially when one was frightened, she could jump into th

    Naomi was astounded for a bit and grabbed the pack of tissues from him. “Thank you.”He stared at the heavy rain. “I don’t think the rain will cease so soon.”Naomi lowered her gaze and pursed her lips.In fact, she hoped that the rain would go on for longer.At that moment, Francisco’s cell phone rang. He took a glimpse at the caller ID and walked away to answer it.Naomi turned her head and stared at his figure. For some reason, she felt like she was on a date. However, as soon as Naomi thought of the word “date”, her cheeks blushed inexplicably, and she covered them instantly.‘Why have my thoughts become so bizarre lately!?’However, what she did not know was that Francisco looked back at her at this moment and happened to witness the scene where she was covering her cheeks in panic. The sight of an innocent girl being in love was truly a feast to his eyes.Apart from this, Lucy’s actions had all been so obvious, so how could Francisco not realize it?He lowered his gaze,

    Francisco frowned and said nothing.‘I agreed to show up to the meal arranged by that woman named Lucy only because she said that they wished to extend their gratitude through a meal. It’d be rather rude if I were to say no to such a warm invitation.‘To this day, all of Lucy’s actions have been very deliberate. It’s obvious that she’s trying to make a couple out of Naomi and me. I’m not really sure if it’s Naomi’s intention or if she arrived at such a decision without Naomi’s authorization.’After his incident with Maizie, Francisco had been very wary toward all women.‘Nobody can guarantee that I won’t run into another Maizie.’At the hospital…Mrs. Hannigan was sitting beside the hospital bed and feeding Nathaniel congee. Because Nathaniel had just undergone a craniotomy and was still recovering, all he could do was basically lying on the bed, and he would need someone to raise the head of the bed if he wanted to get up.Tanner came in through the door at this time.Nathanie

    A thorn seemed to have punctured Tanner’s chest, and he felt as if he could no longer breathe. He was silent for a moment and then stood up shakily. “Then take me back.”The pub manager came over and said, “Miss, please send Mr. Hannigan home. He’s drunk too much. We’ll get into trouble if something happens to him after he leaves the premises.”Pearl did not utter a single word. Pearl saw the coat he draped on the couch, picked it up, and followed him out when they were leaving the pub.Pearl was about to cover him with his coat back in the car when Tanner grabbed her wrist abruptly and called her out drunkenly but looked as if he was completely sober. “Pearl.”Pearl froze. She remembered suddenly that Tanner used to call her that in front of her parents a year ago. She smiled, but there was not even a hint of hilarity in her eyes. “Are you still playing your part? But the play has ended.”He did not speak another word.Pearl drove him back to the apartment building. She knew tha

    Tanner put on his clothes and walked out of the room. Someone was making breakfast in the kitchen, and a pleasant scent wafted out into the living area.He walked over in a hurry, but what he saw was not the person that he had in mind, and his expression stiffened slightly.Sandy placed the fried egg on the plate, turned around to look at him, and smiled. “Have you woken up?”Tanner frowned. “Sandy... It’s you... Why are you here?”Sandy brought the breakfast to the table without any trace of emotion on her face. “Have you forgotten what happened last night?”‘What happened last night...‘Of course, I haven’t forgotten about that, but I clearly remember that the woman I came back with was Pearl. So how did she become Sandy after last night?’“Tan,” Sandy called his name and turned to look at him. “I waited for you all the time. I waited for you for one whole day, and you didn’t even come back to me.”Tanner’s lips were pursed into a single line.“I know. You can’t touch me now

    Tanner stood next to the bed and looked at his father. “What about the child?”Nathaniel was quiet for a few minutes, but his expression didn’t change. “I can accept the child but not the mother.”Tanner seemed to know that was what his father would say, but before this, he would debate about it with his father, but now…Had Pearl influenced him or the ‘accidental’ child? He was in chaos. After he left the hospital, Tanner drove to La Pearla. The employees all knew about him and Pearl. On top of the scene at the wedding, the news was everywhere, and the people started chattering when he showed up.“Didn’t Mr. Tanner run away with that woman and left his to-be wife?”“Tsk! What’s the point of coming to see Ms. Santiago now that the wedding is over? Such an *sshole.”“What *sshole? I think Mr. Hannigan is the victim here. Other than Mr. Hannigan, who would be willing to marry her? I heard that he already had a girlfriend before he was forced to marry her, but the Hannigans wouldn

    “Leave then.” Pearl looked up. “I’m not like your Sandy. I won’t lower myself to make you happy.”Tanner grabbed her by her chin. “You keep bringing her up. Are you jealous?” He inched forward. “Jealous that she’s cleaner than you or that she’s pregnant with my child?”Pearl had heard all the negative things about her, but these words hurt her more than any of them. Even if she didn’t care, they still hurt. She was finally numb to them, but Tanner was the one who kept walking all over her numb heart.Her eyes were dead and hollow, as if there was no soul behind them. She was quiet.Tanner noticed something and pressed his palm to his cheek. “I’m sorry, I… I didn’t mean that.”He hugged her and gave her a little squeeze. “Let’s start all over again.”Pearl melted in his arms, but her eyes looked away, and she smirked. “Don’t you love Sandy? How could you start all over again with me?”Tanner frowned and didn’t answer.Pearl removed herself from his hug. “A dirty woman like me wi

    “Daisie.” Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. “You look so pretty today.”“Thank you,” Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. “I propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.”Daisie clinked glasses with her. “Same goes for you and Morrison.”After the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. “You were great earlier today.”She giggled. “Really?”Nolan added, “You’ll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.”Daisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. “Dad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisie’s hand.”“Consider yourself lucky.” Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. “You’d better treat my daughter well from now on.”Nollace glanced at Daisie. “Don’t worry. She’ll forever be my one and only.”Maisie chuck

    In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriage—the streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrick’s Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisie’s hand and smiled suddenly. “You have sweaty palms.”Daisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, “I’m nervous.”He lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “I’m here, so don’t be nervous. Just take it easy.”Daisie’s gaze landed on his wedding jacket. “You look nice in this uniform.”Nollace chuckled. “And my bride looks stunning too.”Arriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie.

    “By the way, where’s Cameron?” asked Morrison.Waylon replied, “She’s accompanying her father on a stroll. I’m going to go meet them already, so I’ll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.”After saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. “He’s changed now that he has a wife.”“You’re speaking as if you haven’t changed.” Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. “Hey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.”Maisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. “Mrs. Goldmann.”Maisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. “Have you finished catching up?”“Of course. Didn’t you want to go to the Hathaways’ villa with Dad in the afternoon?”Nolan smiled. “I was waiting for you. We’re just going over to have a meal together.”Quincy walked up to Saydie’s side and

    Daisie grinned from ear to ear. “Then I’ll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my mom’s jewelry company and design.”Nollace hugged her from behind. “You can do anything as long as you like it.”…The members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, “Godfather!”Strix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for

    The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, “Nolly, I’m really looking forward to our wedding.”“Really?” Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. “I’m looking forward to it too.”“I can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.”He laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. “You know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.”Daisie turned her head around. “What are your wishes?”“Marry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.”She was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme

    “Yeah, it’s true,” replied Zephir.“It seems like you’ve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.” Naomi patted his shoulder. “I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.” He smiled at her but did not say anything.…Soon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. “Mommy! Daddy!”She hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. “You’re an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.”She smiled back at them and said, “But I know I’ll always be your kid in your eyes.”Maisie chuckled and looked at the other people. “It seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.”Freyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl

    Nollace looked at them. “What a coincidence.”“Morrison and I were here earlier than you guys,” said Leah. “We only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.”Daisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, “Then you should stay a few more days with us.”After Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. “She’s my sister-in-law, Freyja, and she’s my sister. Her name is Daisie.”“I’ve seen them before at your wedding,” said Morrison. “Your sister is my wife’s classmate. She has told me before.”“Since when did I become your wife? There’s a chance I may not marry you in the future,” said Leah.“We’re already engaged. If you don’t want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?” Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, “Engaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?” Leah cleared her throat and replied, “Well, I forgot to inform you abo

    The stall owner said, “$10 for three chances.”“$10 for three chances only? That’s expensive,” commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, “I’m the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.” Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, “Let's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.”After that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, “Please give us six hoops.”The stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, “Leave it to me.”She squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an

    The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?”“Yeah…” She buried her head in his chest and said, “I want to go to take a leak, but I’m a little bit scared.”Nollace kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll go with you then.”Both of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, “You wait for me here.”Nollace nodded. “Just shout my name if you need anything.”She walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollace’s arm. “Alright, let’s go
