At Violet's words, Linda got confused. To her knowledge, the Civil Affairs Bureau is closed on Saturdays. "Did I remember it wrong?" She thought to herself.
"It's open on Saturdays?"
"Of course. People work during the weekdays. If the Civil Affairs Bureau isn't open on Saturdays, how else would people have the time to go through the process?"
Linda scratched her head sheepishly, "Mother, your words make sense. You're so smart!"
"Humph" Violet kept her poker face as she restrained her amusement. She pointed to Linda and was about to say something, when Charles gathered Linda into his arms and said, "All right. Let's enjoy dinner first. The food will get cold."
Linda fed herself another cola chicken wing. Cola chicken wings were her favourite dish.
She didn't expect Violet to cook it especially for her. It tasted good.
Feeling a little full after dinner, Linda asked Charles to accompany her on a walk in the garden.
The Mu Manor garden was quite big. Linda and Charles walked hand in hand as they chatted on their stroll.
All the servants working in the garden exclaimed at the sight, "Young Master and Her Lady make such a perfect match!"
"Linda, we're getting married next month. How do you feel about it?" Charles turned to Linda with a serious look in his eyes.
"Hmm....
I feel...
It's a secret!" Linda grinned coyly.
"Jesus, I can't believe you learned to tease me." Charles arched his eyebrows.
"I'm not teasing you! I just don't want to tell you right now..."
Suddenly, Charles pulled Linda by the waist. Seeing the servants watching them with interest, Linda blushed. She buried her head to Charles' chest and whispered, "What are you doing? Let me go. A lot of people are watching."
"Guess what I'm gonna do."
"All right already, I shouldn't have teased you! Let me go now."
"It's too late, My Lady. You're going to pay for this."
