A red carpet was spread from the door to the living room, adorned with balloons, red roses, and scattered flower petals.
Lila froze, staring at Kieran.
But when she saw the surprise in his eyes, she realized that he wasn't the one behind this.
Why was their home like this?
Before Lila could figure it out, a woman appeared at the top of the stairs—Carol from the Morgan residence.
"Sir and Miss…" She quickly paused after realizing her mistake and smiled apologetically. "Oh, my mind's a bit slow."
"Welcome home, Sir and Madam. I'm here to help clean up. Madam Amelie sent me. She's worried you young ones might not know how to handle the wedding arrangements. Plus, she wants a grandchild soon, so she asked me to tidy up."
Lila's mind went blank at the mention of a grandchild.
This couldn't be happening!
She and Kieran weren't planning on doing... well, that kind of thing.
"I'll show you the wedding room. Madam Amelie personally supervised everything." Carol smiled brightly.
These two had practically grown up under her care, and seeing them getting married brought her so much joy.
Her heart swelled with happiness when she looked at them, standing side by side.
They were such a perfect match! If they had had a baby, they would have been beautiful!
Carol smiled and gently took Lila's hand. "Want to go up and have a look?"
Lila's ears turned red, clearly shy.
In that case, Carol decided to help them along a bit more.
As Lila followed Carol, she turned to look at Kieran with a helpless expression.
Kieran was so charmed by her flustered look that a smile spread across his face. He followed behind them.
Knowing that Kieran didn't like others touching his things or maybe because Nicole thought another room was more appropriate, Carol had arranged the wedding room next to Lila's.
