Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1327

Maggie had wanted to hide the development of their relationship from her parents, but she knew now that she would undoubtedly not succeed in doing that in consideration of the situation. With this in mind, she could not help but roll her eyes. With a heavy, thunderstruck face, she looked at Edgar miserably. Knowing that she would not escape today's events, she curled her lips into a forced smile and weakly greeted everybody present, "Wilson, Dad, Mom." After greeting them, she pulled Edgar towards her, locking their hands together, fingers intertwined. Standing by his side, she bravely said, "As you know, I've married Uncle..." She swallowed her words immediately when she realized what she was calling Edgar. Then blushing, she corrected herself immediately, "I've married Edgar. We've obtained our marriage certificates. Hmm, that's all what I wanted to say."

William had tried his best to prevent himself from laughing aloud while his daughter was speaking. Finally, he could not restrain this great urge any longer and burst into laughter. He walked towards her and carefully looked her up and down. In a relieved tone, he said, "Great! My daughter's ultimate dream of so many years has finally come true. Congratulations! Aha... Hana, go to fetch the special spirits which I have been saving for years. I must celebrate and have a good drink together with Wilson and Edgar today." Seeing that Edgar had opened his mouth, intending to say something, William knew that Edgar wanted to refuse his plan. Pulling a long face, he said, "You're taking a vacation. And today is the weekend. Nothing would be affected by taking a drink with me."

Just as William said, it didn't matter if they drank on the weekend, especially on the day on which Edgar and Maggie had legally gotten married. Besides, Edgar was on vacation. A drink would not affect his work.

"Dad, can you drink now?" Maggie asked, throwing cold water on her father's plan. She was miffed, and she would seek revenge for even the smallest grievance on anybody, and William was no exception.

Hearing his daughter's question, William was dazed by her spoiling the moment. Then he said complacently, "Well, your mother, my leader, agrees. Aha..." While laughing, he pulled Edgar over to the dining table.

The day on which someone was legally married would always be one of the most important days in their life. However, since William and Hana knew Edgar really well, they felt like he had already been a part of the family, and the obtaining of the marriage certificates was more like an episode in their daily lives.

Hana provided a few side dishes for the men to snack on while drinking. Since it was not time for dinner yet, she didn't cook a big meal. Then she took Maggie to the sofa in the living room. While watching television, she asked, "Maggie, are you satisfied that your marriage is settled in this way?"

Hearing this, Maggie held her mother's arm with hers in an intimate manner which was special to all mothers and daughters. Now that Edgar was absent, she didn't have to pretend to be as arrogant as she had been in front of him. Rubbing Hana's shoulder with her cheek, she mumbled, "Mom, I've already obtained the marriage certificate. What else can I do?"
