Chapter 809
Emily really couldn‘t stomach this bitterness if she didn‘t give Sophia a hard time or flaunt her new status in front of that woman.
“Get some rest. You have to look your best tomorrow. I want my daughter to be the most beautiful bride in the world.” Vera fixed Emily‘s long hair.
At that, Emily went to bed as told. However, the wedding and, most importantly, the wedding night popped into her head as soon as she closed her eyes. She would truly be handing herself to Arthur soon. As the thoughts crossed her mind, her face flushed, and her heart raced.
Back at the Weiss Manor, Anastasia was already sound asleep. Elliot, on the other hand, went for a drink with Richard and had a heart–to–heart talk.
The topic then came to their survival days in the jungle, three young men about the same age fighting hard, supporting and sticking by each other. Even when so many years had passed, just thinking about it still got their blood boiling
“Richard, have you ever given your love life a thought? You can‘t stay a bachelor forever, can you?” As a married man, Elliot would wish to see that his brothers could have a happy married life as well.
Richard shook his head in response. “My job is my partner. A woman will only affect the speed I draw my handgun.”
Elliot couldn‘t help chuckling at that. “Alright, I‘m going to make a note of that,” he teased, leading Richard to guffaw. The two then clinked glasses and looked at the lights afar. There truly was no romance in Richard‘s eyes. He could safeguard his comrades, brothers, and family, but he never gave his love life a thought, for he absolutely didn‘t need it.
This night was bound to be long for a lot of people.
Sophia, too, couldn‘t fall asleep as she lay in bed. Thus, she moved to the couch and lit a bracket light, allowing the dim light to shine on her as sadness enveloped her.
She flipped through the pictures and videos in her phone album again and
again as tears streamed down her face like a never–ending waterfall.
“Get over here. I‘m recording a video!” Sophia‘s whiny voice could be heard.
Very quickly, a dashing face appeared on the screen. While Sophia was making cute faces at the camera, the man hugged her from behind and rubbed his face against hers affectionately. At that, she put her phone away, but laughter could still be heard off camera.
“Can you be a little more serious? Honestly!”
The man‘s crisp laughter came. “Who‘d have thought my wife knows how to fight back? I‘m impressed, puppy.”
Is her boyfriend handsome? Is he rich? What is his family like? How does he compare to me?
