At night, Monica followed Algerone and Belinda back to the blooming rose-filled villa, which was Algerone's home. Since returning to Arkpool City, it was the first time he had brought Belinda back as his wife, making her the lady of the house. Monica watched the two of them walk into the living room hand in hand and felt a sense of comfort. With a smile on her face, she said, "It's been a busy day, so let's rest early."
"Are you staying here tonight?" Algerone looked at his daughter. "It's quite late, so don't have Tristan come to pick you up. He might still be busy."
Tristan had been called back to the office after dinner.
Monica nodded with a smile, "Okay, I won't leave."
Algerone then escorted Belinda upstairs. Watching her parents ascend, Monica knew her mission had been accomplished. Her greatest wish had been fulfilled, leaving her with no regrets. It was a special day, and she felt particularly happy.
Her phone chimed with a WeChat notification. Checking it, she saw that Tristan had messaged to inquire about the situation. Monica called him back and quietly reported, "We just got back and are getting ready to rest. What about you? Are you done with work?"
"Yes, I just left the office," Tristan replied. "When do you plan to meet Rowan?"
He was referring to the matter of their formal introduction, something that couldn't be delayed for too long.
Monica truthfully told him, "Tomorrow morning. Algerone and Belinda are also going. I agreed."
"Take me with you," Tristan said. "I'd like to meet this soon-to-be father-in-law of mine. I need to ask him for his daughter. I can't have you promised to some prince."
