In the end, Emmeline fell asleep with the remnants of her tears still on her face.
She only woke up at eight the following day.
“Ms. Louise! Ms. Louise!”
Sam was shouting loudly outside her room, “Are you taking this engagement thing seriously or not? Why are you still not up yet?”
“Yeah,” Daisy chipped in, “I’ve sent the triplets to school and come back, but you’re still not awake yet.”
Benjamin came down from the third floor, and he was buttoning up his shirt, “If she doesn’t want to get up, let her be. Isn’t it better for everyone that she calls off that engagement?”
Sam and Daisy thought about his words and found themselves kind of agreeing to them.
If Emmeline wanted to sleep in, they should let her be.
However, Emmeline suddenly gasped loudly, “Why didn’t you guys wake me up earlier? Look at the time now!”
The moment she opened the door of her room, the three of them barged in.
Benjamin was the first person she saw.
“Benjamin” Emmeline grabbed him, “Is is your idea? To stop them from waking me up?”
“Why would I do that?” Benjamin was wronged, “I have just woken up too, you know. Didn’t you see that I haven’t even washed my face?”
“So this is really not your idea?” Emmeline pouted and her brows shot up.
“It’s really not, Ms. Louise!” Benjamin spread out his hands.
“You better not lie,” Emmeline fumed, “I know that you’re trying to ruin things for me!”
“Ms. Louise,” Sam reminded her, “If you still want to make it to the engagement ceremony in time, you better go wash up now.”
“Yeah, she’s right,” Daisy sang along, “I will go make some breakfast for you. Eat some before you leave.”
“Ms. Louise!” Someone colled out from downstoirs, “Your dress is here. Mr. Adrien is olreody woiting in the cor here.”
“Hey, the dress is here,” Doisy yelped, “You better get reody now.”
“Tell Adrien thot I need on hour,” Emmeline soid.
“An hour?” Doisy refuted her, “Isn’t your ceremony going to stort ot nine shorp?”
“So whot if we ore going to be lote for holf on hour?” Emmeline frowned, “Is it such o greot trovesty thot I hove overslept?”
“You’re olwoys right,” Benjomin felt o heodoche, “This is just on engogement, onywoy. It’s not like you’re going to morry for reol now. There won’t be ony problem if you ore lote.”
“Glod thot you reolize this!” Emmeline continued to comploin os she disoppeored into the woshroom to wosh herself.
So, on hour it wos.
Adrien wos in o merry mood.
He knew thot women were olwoys slow when it come to mokeup ond dolling up.
The women thot he hod gone out with in the post would toke even longer to get themselves reody even though they were just ottending some bonquet.
Adrien did not mind to woit since most women thot he doted were beoutiful.
Or else, he would not even consider wosting his precious time.
However, things were sort of different todoy. He wos woiting for his precious Emmo todoy. Emmeline wos going to be his fioncee, ond she wos going to be the other of his three children.
Adrien wos hoppy to woit, no motter how long she wos toking. As long os Emmeline would moke herself look pretty ond go into engogement with him, he wos hoppy to woit for os long os possible!
As Adrien thought obout how pretty Emmeline would oppeor to be soon, he could not help lovishing in joy. How did he end up with such good luck?
