It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1720

"Yes, I am ready! I will be with you as long as you want me. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I am sure of it." Annie nodded firmly, looking at Rain with determination and large affectionate eyes. She took Rain's hand and walked into the building with him, finally having no regrets. And by the time the two of them left the building, she had already become Mrs. Xia legally.

"Congratulations, Miss An. You are Mrs. Xia from now on. How do you feel right now?" Rain reached his hand out to shake hands with Annie, sealing their deal, and trying to keep a straight face at the same time. In fact, he just couldn't contain his happy grin. He was finally married to the woman he loved!

"Congratulations to you too, Mr. Xia. Now you finally have a wife. How do you feel right now?" Annie reached out and took Rain's hand in hers. They were finally married after all these years' suffering and waiting. She finally had the man she had been in love with, and chasing for years. Now, they were a legal couple, and they had their own little family. They couldn't wait to start their married life.

"I feel like kissing you. I really want to kiss you, right now!" Rain said in a fervent tone. And before Annie could react, he put his lips on hers and held her tightly in his arms. Though it was not the first time that the two of them kissed, it felt like the first time. Now, they kissed as a bona fide married couple, and their passionate kiss showed their deep love for each other.

Kissing in public would surely make some heads turn, but they didn't care at all. They just got married for God's sake! They were happy and needed the kiss to celebrate their love and seal their promise. Besides, this was the local Civil Affairs Bureau after all, and they were not the only ones who were here to get married. People here would surely understand their feelings. It was a sacred place, and it was also the place where they became legal partners.

Unfortunately, right as they were passionately kissing each other, Annie's phone rang, making both of them jump in surprise. They had to break the kiss. Annie removed her phone from her pocket and frowned at the name on the caller ID.

It was Fred. Annie hesitated, and looked at Rain with unsure eyes. She was worried that Rain would be unhappy. This was after all their moment, so she didn't know if she should answer it or not.

"You moved away? Then where do you live now? Please give me your new address. I will come and find you." Fred's heart sank upon hearing Annie's words. Why did she move away? Was she avoiding him? He felt that things were getting out of his control. Suddenly, he didn't know what to do anymore. That was why he hurriedly asked for Annie's new address. He wanted to see her and be assured about their relationship.

"Um. Fred, how about I call you back later? I am a bit busy right now, so, I can't really talk," Annie answered Fred's question a bit vaguely. She didn't know how to explain to him about her relationship and history with Rain. She just didn't know what to say, because it was complicated, and she was also still confused herself. She just knew that she loved Rain, and was ready to spend the rest of her life with him. But she couldn't just tell Fred that, because she knew that it would hurt his feelings, and she didn't want to hurt him. Besides, it was not a conversation that should be done over the phone. Though she had never accepted Fred as a significant other, she could not bluntly ignore his care and company over the past few years. He deserved better from her. His solicitude was something she was forever indebted to him for, and she couldn't thank him enough for being there when she needed someone. But she just couldn't lie to herself. She would never be in love with Fred. So, no matter what, she owed it to him to clarify things, and give him a proper explanation. After all, Fred had just confessed his feelings for her the other day. If not for that, she could have pretended that she was unaware of his feelings, and everything would have been fine. But now, she just couldn't act like nothing happened between them. She would set things straight. It was just that today was really not the time. This was their day. The day that she and Rain got married, and it belonged to the man she would spend the rest of her life with. It was time for celebration and being with their family.

"Oh, okay. I will wait for your call then." Fred's heart had sunk into his stomach. He couldn't help but fear the worst. She wouldn't even tell him her new address for God's sake! He felt sad and uneasy. It seemed that they were suddenly drifting apart, and it was not something that Fred wanted. He was in love with Annie, and he wanted to be with her. He knew he was pressuring her, but he just couldn't help it. He had a bad feeling that he was about to lose her. Thinking of this dark possibility, Fred just couldn't breathe. His heart throbbed painfully in his chest, making it hard for him to breathe properly. It felt like his whole world was crumbling in front of his eyes.
