Things went smoothly for Aurelia and Neil.
It was said that Noah went to the palace with gifts to propose their marriage the next day.
Alexander was close with the Harrises to start with, so he very much approved of the union.
Helene was still not in her right mind, but she no longer harbored the usual hostility toward Neil this time. When everyone discussed the details of the marriage in the hall, she sat quietly by the side, carrying her pillow, her sunken eyes watching all of them curiously yet timidly.
Later, she softly added, "Don't bully my baby. You can't bully her!"
Neil was startled to find that Helene was staring at him. Suddenly, a complex feeling rushed to his heart.
"Auntie, don't worry." Alexander walked over and gave her a gentle hug. "Neil's a very good person. I promise he'll be loyal to Aurelia."
Helene seemed to have understood the discussion about the marriage just now, but she seemed to not understand it again now as she rocked, holding her pillow and humming a lullaby.
She then walked out of the main hall aimlessly, murmuring to the pillow, "Baby, don't cry. Mommy will take you home. Mommy's here. Mommy will take you home…"
Aurelia could not help her tears. Alexander was sad too. He gently patted her shoulder, comforting her, "Don't worry. I'll take good care of Aunt Lene after you get married."
"We can't let you bear this responsibility alone." Neil smiled. "It's my responsibility to take care of my mother-in-law too. Aurelia and I will come back to see her often!"
Alexander glanced at him. He had never seen Neil so serious.
Southeast Aciatic men were a little bit arrogant, so this was the first time Alexander saw a man rush to use "mother-in-law" in addressing before he even got married.
…
After everything settled down, the Hamerton couple returned to the ever-familiar Centrolis with their son.
Everything finally returned to its normal pace after a long absence.
Liam had handed the Hamerton Group to Zephyr, but Cordelia was still in charge of all Hamerton household expenditures and decisions at home.
As for Zephyr's "ex-inmate" pals…
Josiah and Kelly had a grand wedding. The union between the Bayers and Tanners was already a big event that caused a sensation in Centrolis. Coupled with the pair's legendary love story, it had been the talk of the town.
Happy marriage alliances were rare since most of them were for the sake of family interests. Josiah and Kelly had dated of their own free will, which had already made many people envious.
Trinity and Fredric had no plans to get married yet. Fredric was the anxious one, for the most part, while Trinity was devoted to her career. No matter how many times the lawyer proposed to the director, the latter would not budge.
For this reason, Fredric asked for help on social media.
[Help! How do you make a career-oriented woman willingly shift her focus to building a family? How can I make her feel I'm worth more than the Oscar trophy?]
As a result, his friends liked his post without commenting. Nicholas was the only one who was blunt enough to reply with: [Hahahaha!]
This infuriated Fredric so much that he wanted to fight him.
Speaking of Nicholas, Sol Entertainment was constantly growing and had become a top player in the industry, occupying half of the entertainment industry's resources. As his business grew, it naturally attracted a lot of criticism and jealousy.
