She knew that if Selina really married Dylan, Peter and Rudopth would definitely not attend the wedding. She wouldn't allow Selina to be married without any of her family in attendance.
Although Tobias did not approve of Selina and Dylan either, he was still a tolerant person. Therefore, he would understand and be willing to take part in Selina's wedding.
Selina shook her head. "How can I ask them to come back when Natalie and Tobias are in the middle of their honeymoon?"
"It's fine." Cecilia said softly. "They've been there long enough. It's about time for them to come back."
Upon hearing Cecilia's words, Selina fell silent.
Later on, Cecilia personally made a call to Tobias.
Following that, Natalie called Selina.
"Selina, are you really going to get married in a week?" Natalie asked.
Her tone was light, without any emotion.
"Yes, it's sure this time. It's no longer a joke,"
Selina said shyly.
Since Dylan's words had always been ambiguous, she really couldn't tell when he meant what he said and when he didn't.
This time, however, it must be true.
That was because Dylan had gone through the trouble of decorating the hotel room for their proposal, and had even gotten down on one knee for her.
"Congratulations, Selina."
"Thank you, Natalie," Selina said, her voice full of joy. She did not hide her happiness at all.
"Tobias and I will be back in two days," Natalie said.
"Natalie, you don't have to come back if you guys are still on your honeymoon. Besides, I've already guessed that my father and grandpa won't be attending my wedding anyway. The both of you should just go on and have fun. I would hate to bother you on your honeymoon," Selina said.
Without realizing it, a twinge of bitterness had seeped into her voice.
Anyone would hope that their marriage would receive their family's blessings, and Selina was no exception.
However, she knew that if she really married Dylan, Peter and Rudopth would definitely not give her their blessings.
"Well then, that's more of a reason to attend your wedding. We're your family, so how could we be absent?" Natalie said in a firm tone. "Besides, our honeymoon is almost over. I too miss home after having been away for so long, and I also miss Hayden."
"Okay, then," Selina said, her voice a little mischievous. "It's just that the wedding might be a bit shabby, so I hope you don't mind."
"How could I? Selina, you're a real princess, and a real princess will still be a princess even if their wedding is tacky."
Selina couldn't help but laugh. When she did so, her eyes suddenly clouded with tears. "Natalie, you really have a way with words."
"No, I'm just stating the truth," Natalie responded with a grin.
Five days later, Natalie and Tobias took a plane back.
The plane was a private one because they had too many things to bring back.
Natalie had bought all kinds of local snacks from every place they had visited, one bag after another, to the point that it could probably fill up a whole room.
When she got on the plane, she suddenly realized that her stomach had become very bulged.
She looked at her lower abdomen in disgust. "Oh my God, why have I become so much chubbier after such a short trip?"
Tobias burst into laughter. "It's only natural, since you've been feasting every day."
During their honeymoon trip, Natalie was simply eating all the time.
Natalie pouted with a pitiful look on her face. "So you don't like me anymore?"
