Chapter 501
Chapter 501
"Then what do you like? I'll gift you with it." Patrick lowered his head and looked at me.
I knew he was talking about cars.
He had long disliked my MINI car at the price of over 20 thousand dollars which I had been driving for a long time.
However, I held his arm and answered immediately without deliberating for even one second, "I like you."
After hearing my answer, Patrick seemed to be a little surprised.
But soon, the smile at the corner of his mouth was brighter. Lowering his head, he gently kissed me on the forehead with profound gentleness in his pitch-black eyes, "Well, okay. Then what you need to think about is what kind of wedding ceremony you want."
"A wedding ceremony?"
I was stunned.
Thinking about it, it seemed that I indeed didn't even think about having another wedding ceremony with Patrick.
After all, we were no longer young. And we had held a wedding ceremony.
Despite the fact that I had married Patrick in the name of Caroline back then...
I hesitated.
If I said that I wasn't looking forward to a wedding ceremony, it would be a lie... However...
Patrick, who seemed to figure out the embarrassment on my face, asked me in a somewhat unhappy tone, "Why? Don't you want to marry me?"
"No." I reached out and touched my cheeks, "I am willing to. And I will marry no one else but you. But we don't have to hold a wedding ceremony. It's so troublesome. And..."
"Do you mind that I married someone else previously?"
He interrupted me.
"Of course not." I quickly denied it and explained, "It's just that I think that when it comes to getting married, it's too troublesome. We should be prepared for too many things. In that case, we'd better stay at home and have a good rest for a whole day."
In fact, when Caroline got married back then, Gina and Jeremy didn't bother to manage affairs. As the authentic bride, Caroline couldn't be lazier.
Therefore, I was in charge of all the matters, either important or trivial.
I was so busy that I didn't have a good rest for several nights.
"No." Hearing my words, he refused without mercy, "Speaking of other things, I can do them as you say. But I'll make a final say on this matter."
He looked resolute.
Looking up at him, I knew that he wouldn't agree despite what I would say later.
Helplessly, I could only nod my head, "Alright. You have the final call."
"Good girl."
He said gently...
After Patrick and I stood outside for less than five minutes, someone arranged for us to go in.
Because of Patrick's high status, we were arranged to be in a private box.
There was a large-sized TV inside with which we could see what was going on in the wedding ceremony in real-time.
After going in, I looked around and asked nervously, "Where is Glenn?"
Seeing that there were so many people. I was so afraid that Glenn would get lost.
Patrick sat down and shrugged with a hint of helplessness on his face, "Our son is no longer our son anymore."
I looked at him.
He continued, "When he came in just now and saw Nancy's daughter, he insisted on staying with her despite my persuasion. I couldn't do anything with him."
Hearing what he said, I smiled and said, "Oh, he is with Cicely."
In that case, it made sense.
Ever since Glenn's childhood, it seemed that he hadn't ever paid much attention to any girl except for Cicely.
At first, it was Cicely who insisted on having fun with Glenn. Later, she grew up and seemed to learn to be reserved. And now, it was Glenn who insisted on staying by her side instead.
At the mention of Cicely, Nancy, her husband, Jerrold, Cicely, and Glenn came in.
They sat down on four chairs respectively.
The six of us were seated properly in a small private box.
The wedding ceremony soon began.
We sat in the private box and looked at the largesized screen. Because it was a Chinese- styled wedding, the wedding venue was furnished in Chinese style.
We watched as Roger and Lisa entered the hall together.
Roger's parents were sitting in the forefront.
It was the first time that I saw Roger's parents. The two seniors were sitting there with smiles on their faces. At first glance, I could tell that they were very kind.
The etiquettes of a Chinese-styled wedding were quite different from those of an ordinary wedding.
However, they weren't complicated. And the wedding ended soon.
Then, Roger's parents and Lisa's leader came onto the stage to give a speeck. After that, it was Patrick's turn.
However, instead of asking Patrick to move to the wed venue, Roger came over with a microphone and a video camera in his hands, asking Patrick to say something in his chair.
The scene would be directly projected on the projector in the hall through the camera.
In this way, Patrick wouldn't feel embarrassed.
After everything was over, Roger and Lisa went to get changed and began to toast the guests.
Everyone sitting in the private box was elders, including Roger's parents and Lisa's leader, who were all seated in the forefront. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
So, they soon came to toast the ones sitting at our table.
This time, Lisa got changed with another set of clothes of traditional style. It was like a curving-front robe which was so long that its tail was spread onto the ground. With a simpler hairstyle, she wore a lot of accessories on her head.
Wearing this kind of clothes, Lisa didn't have to wear high-heeled shoes. Instead, she only had to wear embroidered shoes with turn-up heads.
After they came to our private box, Glenn sitting on the other side spoke first, "Godmother, you look so beautiful today!"
"Thank you, Son!" Lisa blew him a kiss.
After that, Roger held up a glass of wine in his hands and said, "Thank you, everyone, especially my elder brother, for attending our wedding ceremony today."
After saying that, he drank up the wine in the glass in one gulp, picked up the wine glass in Lisa's hands, and drank up the wine as well. After that, he said, "Sorry, my wife is pregnant. She can't drink. So I drank for her."
"Got it. Got it."
Nancy nodded.
After they were done toasting each of us, Lisa touched her stomach and said half- jokingly, "Glenn, there's a little younger sister in my belly. I'll make her your wife after she grows up, okay?"
Originally, Lisa said so jokingly.
Unexpectedly, Glenn said at once, "No, I like Cicely. I have promised her that I will marry her after I grow up!"
His words were so shocking.
After he said that, we looked at the two children in unison.
Cicely sat there and blushed immediately. She lowered her head and said nothing.
Hearing this, Lisa put her hand on her forehead, looking very hurt, "What's wrong? My daughter gets dumped before she is born, right?"
"No, no," I said quickly, "You are a super beauty with an excellent curvy body figure. The pursuers of your daughter will definitely line up overseas in the future. When that time comes, it won't be my son's turn."
"No, no. The main purpose is that we advocate free love and oppose arranged marriages."
Nancy said on the side.
Lisa lowered her head and touched her belly, saying, "Oh, my dear daughter, I thought I could arrange a good marriage for you. But I have no choice. You are born late."
Roger laughed, "It's okay, it's okay. It doesn't matter if our daughter doesn't get married. I'll support her!"
"That's right. Who said my daughter had to get married?"
Lisa followed suit.
As we were chatting, a waiter behind us said, "Please wait a moment. The wine is bottomed up. I'll go and get some more now."
The waiter left. It happened that we could stay here for a while longer.
Roger supported Lisa and said mysteriously, "By the way, I have something to tell you."
We all looked at him.
Roger smiled, "Do you know where our wedding room is?"
"I don't know."
I shook my head.
Nancy also shook her head.
Lisa punched him and said, "Nobody knows the answer."
Roger smiled and said, "It is in Water- like Pavillion!"
