He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 892

Propping his head on one arm, he quietly studied her sleeping profile, his heart swelling with immense satisfaction.

After such a long, agonizing wait, she had finally taken the initiative. She had willingly laid down in his bed, sharing it with him.

He treasured this moment, gazing down at her with unbridled affection, unable to look away.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast, Julian finalized his discharge paperwork. Elara, Dominic, and Scarlett walked with him out of the hospital.

To their surprise, just as they were about to leave, Jacqueline arrived with a massive bouquet of flowers, bringing Dawn and Zara along to see him.

The two families gathered in the lobby, the atmosphere as lively and warm as a major holiday.

Jacqueline and Elara were already as close as sisters, but now that the couple was about to make it official, their bond had grown even tighter.

Dawn, meanwhile, was the undisputed darling of both families.

The moment Elara and Dominic saw the little girl, they immediately rushed over, playfully fighting over who got to hold her first.

Elara beamed brightly. "Jacqueline, I'm so glad you brought Dawn over! Saves us the trouble of sending a car for you guys."

"Sending a car for us?" Jacqueline blinked in confusion. "What for?"

Elara's smile widened. "To talk about the wedding, of course! They've already picked a date to sign the marriage license."

"The Croft family absolutely has to show our sincerity. We've prepared a set of engagement gifts. You and Scarlett are coming over to the estate to take a look. If anything isn't to your liking, we'll change it right away."

Jacqueline looked stunned, while Scarlett froze.

Initially, her transition into actually marrying Julian had been purely circumstantial. Even though their so-called contract marriage had slowly blossomed into something that felt like destiny, she had never expected to ask for anything from his family.

"Elara, you don't need to worry about all those formalities," Scarlett quickly interjected. "We just want to keep things simple and natural."
