Chapter 1461

Author: Ginger Bud
Ian did not answer.

Elaine also felt that she had spoken out of turn because they had agreed not to interfere with each other’s life. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. I just think that if you’re regretting it, it’ll be better for us to stay engaged for the time being.

“Being engaged will make it easier for you to seize power too.”

‘I’ve never liked to force others. Even though he’s the one who proposed the marriage at the beginning, the purpose of the marriage has always been the benefit that each of us will get from the marriage at the end of the day. We won’t have anything to do with each other, let alone fall for each other.

‘But I’ve been a little hesitant recently, hesitant about my decision.

‘I’ve never been afraid of a marriage of convenience as I could still keep the life that I want after the marriage. Getting a divorce can be done any time if I find out we don’t suit each other. The whole thing will still be acceptable to me as long as it’s not troublesome.

    Ian seemed to have seen through her thoughts. “It’s the last four digits of my cell phone number.”Elaine was rendered speechless.‘This is a little awkward now.’She chuckled and helped him in the door. “There’s no need to explain that.”He responded with a light hum. “I’m not explaining.”‘I’m just telling her the pin. It doesn’t mean anything.’He stretched out his hand to turn on the chandelier, and the space lit up instantly. The interior of the villa looked quite simple. There were not as many bells and whistles as she imagined, and it did not look luxurious.It looked simple, clean, and spacious.She helped him back to the bedroom, which looked even emptier. There was only one king-sized bed, a wardrobe, a desk, a bookshelf, and no extra sundries or other items.She looked around. “Your place looks way too simple.”It did not look shabby. It was just that it was extremely simple. It seemed almost vacant and did not feel like home at all. It was more like a temporary sh

    After doing all this, she crept back to the bedroom.Ian slowly opened his eyes, touched the blanket on his body, and turned to look at the silhouette that was stepping into the bedroom.He was well aware of how much he had drunk. He did drink a lot, but he was not completely drunk. Moreover, he was an undercover agent and had taken up a lot of dangerous undercover missions back then, so he had always been a very light sleeper. He had already woken up when she opened the door and walked out of the room.Ian chuckled softly.He had wanted to see what she would do, but he was really surprised by her actions.The next day…Elaine slept until 8:00 a.m. and woke up on time. She washed up and walked out of the bedroom only to realize that the blanket and pillow were the only things left on the couch.“You’ve woken up.” Ian came out of the kitchen with breakfast.She was astonished and walked toward the dining table. The breakfast was simple but looked good and smelled delicious. “You

    Elaine was astounded and explained casually, “I’ve already gotten used to it.”Ian stared at her and let off a faint smile. “You still have to get used to our new relationship.”Elaine took a deep breath and smiled at him. “Okay, I’ll get used to it gradually.”She pushed the door open and got out of the car.He glanced at her as she stepped into the mansion and slowly raised the car window. At this time, he received a call from his father, Juan.At the Saldana manor…When Ian stepped into the living room, he saw Juan sitting on the couch smoking a cigar while the servant beside him was brewing tea.He raised his hand, motioned him to sit, and dusted off the ash. “Ian, I plan to give you a big gift before you get married.”Ian sat on the opposite couch. The engagement between him and Elaine had not been fully disclosed. It was just an agreement between him and Edward. Thus, Juan should not know about it.Ian smiled. “Then I truly look forward to what kind of gift you’ll give m

    At that moment, Elaine was busy working on the software. After receiving the message, she flipped through her phone in her spare time half an hour later.[Isn’t this your fiance?][Do you know the woman your fiance is meeting behind your back?][!!!]A photo was attached.She tapped on the photo to view it—it was indeed Ian. He looked at the woman who had a gentle smile and was sitting across from him. She did not look as gentle as any ordinary woman. There was a hint of affection and tenderness that existed only between a couple mixed within her gentleness.Others might not recognize her, but Elaine could with only one glance.It was exactly as she had guessed.Elaine did not reply after reading it and turned off the screen of her phone.She thought she was a little ridiculous. It was made clear that they would not interfere with each other’s private life or do anything for each other, but she was still a little downcast when she saw this scene.She thought that the marriage

    After that, Ian calmly smiled. “You’re a little sensitive.”He picked up his teacup and slowly took a sip. “I bumped into your colleague at the cafe today.”She paused, then suddenly smiled. “Really?”“Did she tell you something?”Elaine’s smile froze, and she looked into his deep-set eyes. She started feeling guilty. ‘Did he find out that my colleague secretly took a photo of him?’If Ian didn’t have great observational skills, could he have been an undercover agent? That would be a terrible choice.She admitted with a smile, “She did, but I don’t question your private life. The outsiders don’t know about our arrangement, so that happened. I’m sorry for causing any inconvenience.”“Was that why you switched off your phone?”Elaine started sweating cold sweat. Sometimes men were sharper than women when it came to observation. “No, I just don’t like being bothered while I work.”She then explained, “I know our situation, so I don't need to read too much into it. Who you meet is

    Ian thought that in return, he would give some shares to Elaine after taking down Synergy. Elaine wanted benefits, and he would give them without holding back. However, he forgot about one thing: ' feelings’.When people were bound by marriage, even if they didn’t love each other, they would develop feelings if they stayed together for too long.He hadn’t been too drunk the other night, so he clearly remembered what she had done.He had come across many women, so he could tell when they were genuine toward him.Elaine was more secretive and didn’t show much. He could see how she tried to distance herself, and she knew that what they had was ‘business’.Elaine looked down and understood what he meant. After a moment, she asked, “So, we can just stay engaged, can’t we?”Ian didn’t answer.Elaine looked calm. “Once you get what you want, we could just call off our engagement.”She thought that it would be simple for them to get married, but she was hesitating now that they wer

    After getting out of prison, Tyrese wanted to take revenge on Ian. However, if this woman had a background, it wouldn’t do him any good. Nonetheless, he didn’t buy that and scoffed. “You’re just scaring me.“Or have you used her to get where you wanted, and she knows your dirty tricks?”Tyrese looked at Elaine. “He was merciless when it came to using women. Go ask around and see how many had fallen because of him. You’re probably just a pawn to him.”Elaine pressed her lips together and looked at Ian after a few seconds. “I don’t need you to tell me what kind of man he is.”When Tyrese heard that, he laughed maniacally, and a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes. “You’re so loyal. Too bad you’re not getting out of this tonight.“Owen, you ratted me out 10 years ago and sent me to prison. I lost an eye there, and I’m going to claim it back from you.”Ian’s eyes were cold. He pushed Elaine behind him. “Leave.”Elaine stumbled and almost lost her balance while Ian rushed towar

    Elaine forced a smile. “I didn’t know that he had a blade.”She just didn’t want him to be hurt. Ian put pressure on her wound and cradled her in his arms. “Hang in there, Elaine, don’t fall asleep.”When the ambulance got there, Elaine was put on the stretcher and taken away. Ian’s hands were covered in her blood.Elaine had lost consciousness by the time she got to the hospital, and they had to send her to the ER.When Edward and Jenna received the news of the incident, they rushed over and saw Ian standing in the corridor. “Where’s Elaine? What happened?”“I’m sorry,” Ian looked down, “I dragged her into this.”Edward’s knees turned into jelly while he looked at the red light of the ER, looking worried. After two hours of surgery, the doctors exited the ER, and Edward immediately went forward to ask, “How’s my daughter?”The doctor removed his mask. “Are you a family member of Ms. Xavier?”“I’m her father.”He said in a heavy tone, “She’s safe, but the blade pierced too

    “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
