Jasmine took over the water but didn’t drink. She pulled Dolores’s hand to let her sit down next to her. She felt quite sorry. Their children’s wedding would be held tomorrow, but such an incident happened tonight.
“I truly feel sorry,” she gripped Dolores’s hand and said apologetically.
Dolores patted her on the back of her hand and comforted her, “It’s alright. Fortunately, everyone is fine.”
Jasmine nodded.
“It’s almost dawn. I’ll cook something to eat. Let’s have something. Later, we’ll get busy. Jasmine and Dolores, you would also be the protagonists today. You will need to dress up and put on makeup. The bride and bridegroom will feel quite happy.” Theresa put on the apron and looked at Jasmine. “By the way, when will Boyce come back? Will he be late for the wedding?”
“No, he won’t. He’ll come back after arranging the work. There shouldn’t be any delay.” Jasmine stood up. “Let me help you.”
Theresa pressed her down. “You seldom come here. Why don’t you talk to your in-law? I’ll prepare for the food.”
Jasmine smiled. “Thank you so much, Theresa.”
“You are welcome.”
The three women smiled at each other.
Theresa truly looked quite young. Probably it was because she never gave birth, her shape wasn’t changed. She had been running her own tailor’s shop and always concentrated on her career, so she was always in a good mood and looked pretty young.
In the new villa.
After everything was cleaned up and others left, Joshua pushed the door of the guestroom open. Bonnie didn’t speak at all. No matter how much Amanda comforted and encouraged her, she kept silent.
She shed tears quietly.
Seeing Joshua come in, Amanda stood up and said, “Help me comfort her. I don’t think we can continue staying here. Let me reserve a hotel room for you.”
Joshua nodded.
Amanda passed by her brother and whispered, “Talk to Bonnie nicely. She should be scared.”
Amanda was also scared, let alone Bonnie.
