At the wedding banquet hall, Jenny was changing into her wedding gown in the private room upstairs, while the emcee downstairs welcomed all the guests. Old Mr. Faust was also there greeting everyone, and even Zeke showed up at the scene.Alec was now a member of the Faust family, so it was only natural for the former head of the family to be present at his wedding, regardless of the circumstances. If Zeke declined to show up during such an important occasion, outsiders might think there was discord within the Faust family.It had been many years since the two brothers had seen each other. Now, they no longer had the same tenacity and vigor as before. After exchanging a simple smile, they each went to greet the people they knew.The wedding started soon. With the emcee's announcement, the doors opened. Jenny walked gracefully down the aisle, holding Graham's arm. She made her way step by step toward Alec. Meanwhile, Alec didn't stand still in his spot. He walked steadily toward his b
At the same time, Melanie also looked at Alec and Jenny, who were on the stage, enviously. "I really hope my wedding will be grand like theirs in the future." As she said that, she couldn't help but sneakily glance at Paul sitting next to her.Unfortunately, Paul didn't pay her any attention. Instead, he looked toward the other side as if naturally drawn to something over there. Melanie followed his gaze, and as she expected, she saw Stephanie.Bitterness enveloped her heart in an instant. Although she and Paul had publicly announced their relationship, Paul didn't consider her his girlfriend at all. He only took her out when he needed to put up a front. Melanie felt hurt but didn't dare to speak up for herself. She was afraid she wouldn't even be able to hold on to her fake relationship with Paul in the end."No matter what, I'm still his girlfriend now, right?" she comforted herself inwardly.She'd heard that Stephanie and Leonard would start preparing for their wedding after Jen
After the wedding ended, Jenny and Alec saw everyone off and thanked them for being there on their big day. After that was done, they instructed their driver to take them back.Alec was so exhausted in the car that he slumped heavily against Jenny's shoulder. Nevertheless, there was still a smile on his lips as he suddenly said, "Wifey."Jenny was taken aback for a moment when he addressed her like that."My wife," Alec spoke up again, opening his eyes and looking intently at Jenny beside him. "I love you."Jenny was someone who didn't handle romantic gestures well. When Alec said he loved her, it didn't evoke the warm, mushy feeling that it should. On the contrary, it made her hair stand on end, and she even had goosebumps."You're drunk. Go back and get some rest," Jenny replied, allowing Alec to continue leaning on her to rest.But resting wasn't exactly at the forefront of his list of priorities right now. Holding Jenny's hand fondly, he said, "Tonight is our wedding night. H
Alec was grilling some buffalo wings when he heard Max's comment. He couldn't help but raise a brow. "Why? Are you jealous of me?""What the heck should I be jealous of? I'm already married myself," Max replied. Besides, it was not like he really liked Jenny back then. He was just curious about Alec's feelings toward the whole situation."Why are you asking so much, then?" Alec rolled his eyes at him. "By the way, when do you and Jade plan to have children?"Alec's question came when Max least expected it, so it startled him for a moment. "Why are you asking me this? Don't tell me you and Jenny plan to have children already?""Isn't it too early for that?" Max thought. "We haven't made any plans yet. That's why I'm asking you," Alec replied. He couldn't get a grasp of when would be the perfect time to have children, so he decided to gather some information from others.Max pondered what Alec said seriously for a moment and finally answered, "Well, Jade and I aren't in a hurry to
Paul downed the beer in his cup and said mockingly with a sneer, "Why do you care, hmm? It's all because of you that she's like this now, Gilbert. Stop pretending that you care." Paul didn't show restraint in his choice of words when talking to Gilbert."I'm just going out of my way to remind you to check on her. After all, she's still a Wagner. Are you going to sit back and do nothing?" Gilbert felt that he was being wrongfully blamed. He couldn't quite wrap his head around how Marigold's current situation had anything to do with him. Even if the child was biologically his, it wasn't like he consented to Marigold getting pregnant with his child in the first place. In light of this, how could he be blamed?However, he felt that there was no point in explaining anything. "Whatever, she's Paul's sister. This has nothing to do with me," he thought with a shrug. And so, he got up and left. Since the conversation with Paul was meaningless, there was no need to continue.After everyone
Three days later, Jenny and Alec boarded the plane for their honeymoon. The first destination they'd chosen was Xeridia because many great legends about love originated from that country. Even though they might not necessarily be true, Jenny and Alec still wanted to go and see it for themselves.At the same time, Graham and Lynette started their tour around the world as well. They decided not to travel with Jenny and Alec, as they also preferred to have private time with each other and no one else to make up for all their years apart.However, fate had a funny way of arranging chance encounters when one least expected them. At their first stop, Graham and Lynette coincidentally ran into an old acquaintance that neither of them was particularly fond of.Their first stop was Harthor, a small country with picturesque scenery. At the moment, they were strolling on the streets and browsing the wares the vendors had to offer. To be more exact, Graham was accompanying Lynette to shop aroun
Compared to the unexpected encounter Graham and Lynette had on their side, Jenny and Alec had a relatively peaceful time. After landing in Xeridia, they decided to stay at a hotel by the sea. They had a great view of the ocean by simply looking out of their window, which put them in a rather refreshing mood.At this moment, they'd just gotten up from bed after an intense round of lovemaking. Perhaps it was because they'd left work and other worries behind on this vacation, which was rare for them, Jenny and Alec were in high spirits."Shall we go out for a walk?" Alec asked as he hugged Jenny from behind.Glancing at the nearby beach, Jenny nodded. "Okay."With that, the two of them walked out of their hotel and made their way toward the beach.Sunlight shone upon them, casting long shadows in the sand. The setting sun further added to the romanticism of the scene and made it all the more beautiful.Holding hands, husband and wife strolled along the beach leisurely.Suddenly, a
Stephanie and Leonard's wedding took place two months after Jenny and Alec's wedding was held. Ultimately, they chose to have their wedding on a small island in Clusia. It was more convenient for everyone to attend that way.They didn't invite many people—just their family and friends.At that moment, the sun was shining dazzlingly on the island.Jenny's eyes were fixed on the wedding ceremony taking place ahead. Witnessing the ceremony conducted by the priest, she felt genuinely happy for Stephanie. Jenny was glad she'd finally found her happiness.Then, she instinctively shifted her gaze over to Paul, sitting across from her. His eyes were on Stephanie and Leonard too. Besides a slight frown, he didn't show any other emotions. Upon seeing him in a relatively calm state, Jenny breathed a sigh of relief.Actually, Jenny was rather concerned that Paul might kick up a fuss that day and cause trouble for her best friend. However, it seemed that he had come to terms with the situation
