In the lounge, Martha felt bored after waiting for a while.
Since she was alone there, she decided to walk out to get some fresh air.
Who knew that as soon as she opened the door, she saw Sam standing at the door and raising his hand to knock.
She blinked her eyes and looked at the tall man standing in front of her in shock.
"Sam, you are here too?"
"How can I not come to your wedding?" Sam answered calmly.
In fact, only he himself knew how many things he had dealt with in advance in order to make time to come to Martha's wedding.
Martha was Elsie's daughter, so he must come to her wedding.
Martha, after a daze, came back to her senses and asked, "Stefan asked you to come here?"
"Yep," Sam responded lightly, his eyes fell on Martha's wedding veil before looking away quickly.
Martha was moved by what Stefan did for her, but she didn't show it on her face.
She smiled and stepped aside, "Sam, sit inside."
"OK," Sam responded lightly and walked into the room.
Just now he seemed to have seen Elsie through Martha, as if Elsie had stood in front of him and smiled brightly at him.
He wondered if Elsie was also so happy when she got married.
With his eyes cast down, he got a positive answer in his mind, "She must be, because she married her beloved man."
Based on his understanding of Elsie, she would not marry that man if she didn't love that man.
The next second, Martha's gentle voice sounded, interrupting his thoughts.
"Sam, drink some water."
Sam looked at the water she handed over, his eyes darkened, and he reached out to take it.
After taking a sip of water, he parted his lips slightly, "How are you feeling now?"
"I'm fine. Look at me, my face is rosy, and I am alive and kicking."
Sam pursed his lips, took out a small delicate box from his pocket, and handed it to Martha.
"This is your wedding present."
Martha was taken aback for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she smiled and took Sam's small box and opened it.
There was a purple bracelet in the box, crystal clear and natural.
In the next second, Sam's cold voice sounded in the lounge, "I bought it years ago, and it has been kept in the warehouse. It looks quite suitable for you, so I gave it to you as a wedding gift."
"Thank you, Sam, I love it."
Martha's eyes lit up when she saw the bracelet, and she picked it up and put it on very fondly.
After Sam saw it, his eyes were unfathomable with emotions.
In fact, he made some efforts to get this purple bracelet as a birthday present for Elsie.
Unfortunately, before he could have a chance to give it to Elsie, Elsie had left the country.
Now he was very happy that Martha was fond of it.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door, making Martha look sideways.
She turned her head to look in the direction of the door, and sure enough, she saw Maxwell approaching slowly.
She raised a smile and said, "Dad, you're here."
"Who is this?"
Maxwell looked at the man sitting in front of Martha, with obvious doubts in his eyes.
Martha got up quickly and introduced Sam with a smile, "Dad, this is my uncle, Sam Lucas."
Maxwell was stunned for seconds after listening to his daughter's introduction, and then suddenly realized that this man was his wife's family.
He smiled and reached out to Sam.
"Sam, hello, I'm Maxwell Doyle."
"Hello." Sam frowned imperceptibly, but reached out to shake Maxwell's hand anyway.
Maxwell smiled humbly, and a warm voice came from his thin lips, "Gage, thank you for coming to Martha's wedding."
"It's nothing," Sam responded lightly, keeping his eyes on the man whom Elsie fell in love with.
The man in front of him was tall and straight, his face was chiselled, and he had a refined temperament.
He suddenly remembered that when they were teenagers, Elsie told him, "In the future, I want to marry someone who's tender, nice to me with good looks!"
Seeing that Gage didn't speak, Maxwell felt a little uneasy.
He guessed what Sam would like in his mind, and he said after a while, "Sam, the current economic situation seems bad. It may lead to economy plummet. What do you think?"
Sam was impressed by Maxwell's statement and felt that Maxwell was less repulsive.
Later, after some discussions between them, they discovered that they had many of the same opinions.
Soon they found out that they had many similar ideas and quickly hit it off.
After Maxwell chatted with Sam and left, another distinguished guest came into the lounge.
