Only Elliot was worthy of such a gaze.
It was as if the heavens had decided they were a pair from the start and that he himself was only a missionary who sent Anastasia to Elliot.
This was still devastating to him, even though he already knew the truth.
Nevertheless, he was not jealous of them. Rather, he truly wished them happiness, as the thing he hoped to see the most was Anastasia living the life she wanted.
Anastasia, who was being extra shy today, was being led by Elliot into the main hall quietly and obediently.
Only when they entered the elevator did she finally turn back and see Nigel. She raised her hand to greet him. “Hi, Nigel.”
Smiling somewhat bitterly, Nigel replied, “You finally see me,”
Anastasia started blushing harder and harder, while Elliot only looked on smilingly, admiring the woman who was soon to be his fiancee. He also showed
what it meant for one’s mind to be filled with someone.
Tired of being the thirdwheel involuntarily, Nigel coughed lightly. “Can you two stop publicly displaying your love? At least wait until the engagement party is done and dusted.”
Smiling, Elliot peered at him. “Nigel, you wouldn’t understand this feeling.”
Anastasia started laughing at his words while covering her mouth, as did Nigel, while thinking about it.
Inside the venue hall.
Everything looked very romantic and dreamy. Since Anastasia liked a blue themed engagement venue, the whole thing was decorated in teal and sky blue, making it seem very simple yet dazzling.
Blue roses were scattered around the scene, making the venue have a slight flowery scent.
Upon being sent to the waiting room by the side, Anastasia finally remembered
about the watch, so she took it out and gave it to him. “Is it this one?”
Elliot nodded. “Yup. It’s this one.” Taking off his other watch, he said, “This was a gift from my grandma for my 20th birthday.” Wearing it, he continued, “Grandma said that this was a watch that would bring me luck and happiness.”
