Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1029

Chapter 1029 Thrown Out

Steven strolled over, smiling as he asked, “Do you disagree with this marriage arrangement, or are you dissatisfied with my daughter, Mrs. Luther?”

Only then did Felicity realize that her refusal had been too abrupt, causing them to misunderstand. She quickly explained, “I'm not disagreeing with this marriage proposal. Having Bay as my daughter-in-law has always been my dream, so how could I possibly have any objections?”

“In that case, what did you mean when you said 'no' just now?”

Felicity laughed and said, “I heard that Bay is moving back, so I thought my son had bullied her. We left home in a hurry and didn't even have time to prepare a gift. This is a marriage proposal we're talking about, so how can it be handled so carelessly? How about this? I'll pick an auspicious day soon and come here again with my husband and betrothal gifts. At that time, we can sit down and have a good chat. What do you two think?”

Before Steven and Waverly could speak, Bailey interjected, “Mom, it's just a wedding. There's no need to make it so complicated. Casual is fine.”

Upon hearing Bailey address Felicity as “Mom,” a pang of sadness involuntarily struck Waverly's heart.

However, she was open-minded about it. Of course, she had no choice but to be, considering she was the one who hurt her daughter first.

Now that her daughter was willing to move back home, she was already content. She didn't feel entitled to demand Bailey to address her as “Mom.”

Bailey caught a fleeting glimpse of melancholy in Waverly's eyes, and her body shivered slightly.

Felicity, being as astute as she was, naturally sensed the dynamics between them. She quickly spoke up. “You don't want to make a fuss because you're easy-going, but if the Luther family wants to marry you, we must show absolute sincerity. Listen to me on this matter. You must not let yourself be wronged.”

Bailey was about to speak but was stopped by Artemis, who was standing next to her. “The Luther family's wishes align with mine. You deserve the best in this world. A wedding happens only once in a lifetime, so how could we possibly rush it? Besides, you know so many big shots internationally. It wouldn't be right not to invite them for a celebratory drink at your wedding. Bailey, listen to me. Leave the wedding preparations to my parents and in-laws. Let them create the wedding of the century for us.”

“Exactly, exactly.”

“Yes, yes. That's right.”

Waverly and Felicity agreed at the same time.

They were determined to let their children have the most extravagant wedding in the world.

Bailey held her forehead. Unable to persuade any further, she simply gave up trying. “You're suggesting a traditional Chanaean wedding, so does that mean I have to embroider my own wedding dress?”

Waverly laughed and said, “If you can't do it, you can hand it over to an embroiderer. The most skilled embroiderer in the country is none other than Strassonian embroiderer. When the time comes, I will invite a few girls from Strassonian embroiderer to Hallsbay. I will personally supervise them to ensure they embroider the most exquisite wedding dress.”

Upon hearing about the Chanaean-style wedding, Felicity instantly perked up. “Have you decided to have a Chanaean-style wedding? That's a great idea! We should follow the six etiquettes, and everything should be of the highest standard. When the time comes...”

After taking two steps back, Bailey quietly left the reception room with Artemis.

Only when she could no longer hear the nagging of the two mothers did she finally breathe a deep sigh of relief. “Isn't it just getting married? If it's up to me, just getting a certificate should settle it. Why all the fuss and formalities?”

Artemis reached out to embrace her, comforting her with a smile, “Whether it's the Luther family or the Shurmer family, both are internationally renowned and prestigious households. We are both the legitimate children of two great families. How can we simply gloss over our marriage? Let's bear with it. After all, it happens only once in a lifetime.”

Bailey buried her head in his chest, murmuring, “If I knew it would be this troublesome, I wouldn't have married you—Ah!”

A sharp pain shot through her earlobe. She tilted her head back to glare at him, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.

Artemis's eyes gradually dimmed. He leaned in close to her ear and asked, “If I were to take you to the guest room to do something enjoyable, would your father and brother beat me up?”

Bailey chuckled. “Why don't you give it a try?”

Artemis squinted his eyes in thought but eventually gave up. “My father-in-law and brother-in-law are still fond of me. I can't afford to ruin my image. Ah, even if we rush through the six rituals, it will still take at least three months. Just thinking about it gives me a headache. How am I supposed to endure such a long time?”

With a playful twinkle in her eyes, Bailey flashed a mischievous smile and said in a soft, velvety voice, “You could whisk me away to your private mansion, and after we've had our fun, you could bring me back...”
