But Finch had just said, "We're going to get married eventually anyway. We’re building a future together, Wendy. And in my book, that means trusting you with everything I have."
That one sentence had given Wendy a sudden urge to get married, but she held herself back.
The impression Finch gave was one of sincerity.
From a friend's perspective, he truly loved Wendy. Although they couldn't judge for sure from just one meeting, his gaze and his actions showed that he genuinely cared for her.
"Here, here, let's toast! We'll be waiting for your wedding invitation," Melody said, raising her glass.
Wendy didn't say anything, but Finch thought for a moment and replied.
"I'd be ready to go get the marriage license tomorrow, but Wendy wants to date a bit longer. I'm hoping to make her my wife as soon as possible, though."
With that, Finch looked at Wendy. "I'll be on my best behavior to earn your seal of approval sooner rather than later."
"Wow, are you two trying to shove your happiness in our single faces?" Maggie couldn't help but tease.
"Well then, here's to you both getting what you wish for. And like we said, we're waiting for that wedding invitation," Janina said, raising her glass. She was happy that Wendy had found someone who only had eyes for her.
The best relationships were built on mutual love and admiration.
Unlike her, who had been blind enough to chase after someone who didn't love her back, playing the doormat for over a decade, only to end up...
Learning her lesson in the most painful way possible.
She hoped things would go smoothly from now on.
Janina silently prayed for a peaceful future, but her wish was shattered the very next day.
Julius had somehow found out which complex Janina lived in. He showed up at her front door, his arms full of bags of baby supplies.
Janina had just finished feeding the baby when she heard a knock on the door.
Ethan Holt was in the kitchen making breakfast. He went to open the door, spatula in hand.
He thought it might be building management, but instead, a handsome young man was standing on his doorstep.
"I told you, the children have nothing to do with you. Please leave immediately," Janina said, ordering him out.
Hearing his daughter's words, Ethan understood everything.
So this was the twins' biological father.
He slapped his forehead, regretting his carelessness. How could he have just let him in? He should have at least asked his daughter first.
Just then, Grace also came downstairs.
Julius's eyes were sharp, and he immediately greeted her politely.
Grace had already heard the conversation. She gave a cool, distant nod. "Please, have a seat."
The atmosphere in the living room was awkward. Janina didn't want to see Julius at all.
"Thank you." Julius's gaze shifted to Janina. "I'm here to see the children. Can we please not argue in front of them?"
