“Looks like I have good judgment, and Shirley is a lucky girl.” Angela approved of Zacharias.
On the other hand, Shirley was a little embarrassed. The entire country had heard about the rumor between her and Zacharias a long time ago, and today, while scrolling her phone out of boredom in the car, she found out that the Internet already regarded her as Zacharias’ wife and even gave her the title of Mrs. Flintstone. Moreover, there was also a video clip of her walking into an evening banquet while holding Zacharias’ arm. Even when she watched it again, she felt that she and Zacharias looked great together.
“I was so worried last night that I could barely sleep because I thought that something bad had cropped up on the island,” Angela said, turning to her daughter. “Your dad said that they only apprehended a few criminals. Nothing else happened, right?”
Shirley nodded. “Yes, he’s right that nothing happened.” Nonetheless, the injury on her shoulder was still fresh. Feeling a little guilty for lying, she shifted her shoulder to the side discreetly and tried to maintain a natural appearance,
“That’s great. It’s Christmas tomorrow. Let’s spend it happily by having a meal together and welcoming the new year.”
Before lunch, the three men came downstairs, appearing more at ease since they had finished their discussion. At the dining table, Zacharias and Shirley sat together, and the former offered drinks to his future parents-in-law, showing respect to them like they were his elders.
“I think it’s better not to delay Zach and Shirley’s wedding any longer. After this, he will need her to accompany him to all the functions he’ll be attending,” Ren said, starting the conversation. As the elder and president, it made full sense that he took charge of this matter.
“Uncle Ren, why don’t you pick a date for them?” suggested Richard.
“Let’s hold the wedding two weeks from now. It will be a private wedding without being too lavish. I’m sorry to Shirley about this,” Ren said.
After hearing this, Shirley immediately exclaimed, “No, that’s fine. This is exactly what I want. We should keep it as private as possible.”
“Shirley, we shouldn’t keep it so low-profile either,” Zacharias said with a smile, worried that she would feel neglected.
“Let’s ask Josef out for dinner tonight and set the date,” Richard suggested.
