Shirley raised her head to reply, “It’s okay. I can wait for you.”
Zacharias brought her to the couch and took out a set of jewelry from the bag. “These are for you.”
“Why did you buy these? Stop spending so much money on me.” Though Shirley said that, she still smiled and happily opened the box, revealing a three-piece set of beautifully designed jewelry that shimmered under the light.
“Do you like it?” Zacharias asked. He had personally gone out to choose these. Nodding, Shirley replied, “I do, but stop giving me presents like these.”
However, Zacharias wouldn’t listen. Instead, he would give her these gifts every year.
“It’s getting late. Let’s head upstairs.” Shirley held his hand. It was nearing dawn, and the man had plenty of things to do the next day, so she had to get him to rest earlier.
Meanwhile, Zacharias noticed how eager she was and misunderstood her intentions. He let her lead him upstairs, and once they got to their bedroom, he immediately pushed her against the door. “It seems like you miss me a lot.”
When Shirley raised her head and noticed the glint in his eyes, she couldn’t help but chuckle. “What are you thinking about? I just want you to rest earlier, not-”
The man cut off the rest of her words. Even though she denied it, her body was honest. Damn it! I admit that I want it, too.
Even though they had a tight schedule to prepare for a royal wedding, that didn’t stop everything from progressing in an organized manner.
During the next half a month, Shirley had only one task-preparing herself to become a beautiful bride. She had high-end personalized wedding gowns and evening dresses, jewelry she could pick from, and best wishes from all parties.
Besides that, Angela even hired professionals to educate her daughter so that she would become a very elegant lady at the wedding. That was because Shirley grew up in a graceless environment, and Angela didn’t expect her daughter to marry the vice president. Therefore, Shirley must start attending etiquette lessons.
During the two-hour course, Shirley spaced out for nearly an hour because the etiquette teacher’s tone was like a lullaby, almost lulling her to sleep several times.
In addition, Zacharias didn’t let her sleep well last night. That man seemed to have abnormally high stamina, which even she admired. Not only could he focus on dealing with work matters and wedding preparations in the morning, but he could also work out until late at night. Therefore, Shirley just happened to have the urge to doze off during her afternoon etiquette class.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
