"Shall we go in then?"
"Sure."
...
Getting the marriage license was surprisingly straightforward.
Gregory hadn't made any arrangements in advance, so we just followed the staff's instructions and got it done.
Walking out of the city hall with our marriage certificate, I was in a bit of a daze.
Gregory wrapped his arms around me, leaned down, and planted a kiss on my forehead.
The smile on his lips was deeper than usual, clearly showing his genuine happiness.
"Wife."
His voice was deep and earnest, making my ears heat up.
Ignoring the warmth in my ears, I touched my nose, "Such a happy occasion deserves a celebration. Let me treat you to dinner." Gregory raised an eyebrow but didn't object.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
But to my surprise, that night, he still pinned me to the bed, making me utter those two words.
"Hu...husband..."
...
After getting the license, planning the wedding was next on the agenda.
Mainly because if we delayed any longer, it would get too cold.
Even though traditional suits are warmer than wedding dresses, they can't stand up to the chill.
Christine found a wedding venue that was a mansion left over from the early 20th century.
Gregory and I didn't want to make a big fuss, so inviting just close friends and family was enough.
After some discussion, we set the wedding date for mid-November.
Autumn and winter in Vista Town are usually gloomy and rainy, but on our wedding day, we were blessed with rare sunny weather.
After changing into a traditional suit, I was actually feeling a bit warm.
Christine joked, "Are you sweating from excitement about marrying Gregory?"
"Get lost."
I glared at her.
Christine laughed, "What's there to be embarrassed about? Marrying the person you love and who loves you back should make you happy." Following my mom's arrangements, I was to leave from Cloud Villas.
After getting my makeup done, my mom came over and inspected me closely.
Soon, her eyes began to water.
Feeling a lump in my throat, I held back my tears, "Mom, let's make a deal, you can't cry before I do at the wedding."
My mom chuckled at my comment, managing to hold back her tears.
"Quick, quick, quick!"
Christine hurried upstairs, calling for Edith and the others.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"The groom is here, everyone come block the door!"
Edith was the most enthusiastic about this.
After all, legitimate opportunities to tease Gregory were rare.
Even when they did arise, it was rare to see Gregory at a disadvantage.
But nobody expected that today, Gregory, usually so frugal, turned unexpectedly generous, stunning them with money.
Money-filled envelopes flew at them,
not just containing cash but also checks of varying amounts, and ever property deeds to apartments and shops. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Everyone present was well-off, but they were still taken aback by this lavish display, and eventually, they just had to let him in.
Christine was the least resistant of all.
Her rented shop became her own
property, so she hurriedly welcomed Gregory, smiling like a blooming flower and even handing over her wedding shoes. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
I slapped her playfully, "You really are my best friend."
Christine cheekily responded, "I knew you were dying to marry him. I was just going along with your wishes. No need to thank me."
Dailey and Clarence were also groomsmen today.
Both of them couldn't take their eyes off Christine.
To not overshadow me, she didn't wear her usual favorite color, red, but instead à custom-made white dress with subtle patterns. Despite
her usual bold demeanor, she looked quite elegant and gentle today. Content belongs to
