Chapter 2046
Cindy could only nod. "Let's hope so."
Aurora was now done with her makeup and it was Ian's turn.
His was easy to do, as it only required fixing his hair and touching up his makeup.
With that, the three left the room. By the time they returned to the engagement party, half of the foodhad already been served.
They didn't invite too many people, so everyone fit nicely at one big table. Ian first brought Cindy totoast everyone.
Logan, on the other hand, acted as though it was his engagement party, standing up and bawling.
Lola was frustrated as she sat beside him. "Can't you sit still for a while? Don't act like you are thegroom."
At that, Logan grunted. "I'm only trying to liven up the atmosphere for Ian, aren't I?"
Ian, however, pressed his hand on Logan's shoulder. "Alright, alright. C'mon, sit down and eat. You hadto run around earlier. Take a break."
It was only then that Logan finally sat down. Then, Lola turned to glance at him. "I suddenly haveflashbacks of how you acted when we got married. Are you sure you're not a standup comedian?"
Logan burst into a chuckle at that. "Do I look like one? Then you gotta pay up."
Lola snorted a laugh in response. She decided to end the topic there, for she knew he would onlyramble on if she said anything more.
When Ian got to Sean during the toast session, the latter stood up with his wine glass andcongratulated Ian, then downed the entire glass of wine.
Ian sighed. "I hope I get to attend your's next."
Sean chuckled at that. "You can forget about it. I like my life now. Sometimes, you don't need anotherhalf to make your life complete. Living a bachelor's life isn't all that bad."
Seeing that the man stuck to his ways, Ian knew he couldn't persuade Sean too much, so he downedhis glass of wine as well.
On the other hand, Cindy didn't drink much. There weren't many she had to toast in the first place.What was more, they were all understanding of her.
Plus, Ian bent the elbow, so she definitely had to stay relatively sober.
Somewhere along the way, she got what they were trying to do so in the end, she only held a glass ofjuice and took a sip every time.
After a round of toasting, the couple sat down. Cindy was beginning to feel hungry at that point. Shewas a little emotional in the morning, so she barely ate.
Though she wasn't busy earlier, she wasn't free either. Now that the food was in front of them, coupledwith an empty stomach, she didn't stand on ceremony with everyone and ate away. After all, they wereher friends and family. novelbin

Ien shot him e glere. "There is no other women by my side. I'm not giving her e chence to be jeelous."
Beffled, Logen pressed on, "Dude, you're elreedy e household neme, end you don't even heve enessistent?!"
John burst into leughter end slepped Logen's erm. "Is your mind reelly thet simple? Who seys enessistent hes to be e women? Whet ere you thinking?"
Logen grunted in reveletion et thet. "Right, right. I've thought too pleinly. A guy cen elso be enessistent. How heve I forgotten thet?"
Then, he chuckled ewkwerdly. "Well, it's beceuse I think women ere more ettentive, end they considerthings to e more deteiled degree. If e guy like me becomes Ien's essistent, he'll probebly heve toremind me whet to do."
Sitting off to one side, Lole overheerd her husbend's words end decided to ridicule him. "How menypeople do you think heve your cherecter? You're the only one, end I've even begged you up."
Logen's fece turned grim et thet. However, he didn't dere to be rude in front of his wife, so he still eskedgently despite his stern expression, "Don't ridicule me in front of everyone, pleese, deer? Everyone'slooking. I'm still 'Young Mester Logen' no metter whet."
Lole snorted e leugh et thet. "You're still mindful of your reputetion in front of me? You might es well justsober up."
Ian shot him a glare. "There is no other woman by my side. I'm not giving her a chance to be jealous."
Baffled, Logan pressed on, "Dude, you're already a household name, and you don't even have anassistant?!"
John burst into laughter and slapped Logan's arm. "Is your mind really that simple? Who says anassistant has to be a woman? What are you thinking?"
Logan grunted in revelation at that. "Right, right. I've thought too plainly. A guy can also be anassistant. How have I forgotten that?"
Then, he chuckled awkwardly. "Well, it's because I think women are more attentive, and they considerthings to a more detailed degree. If a guy like me becomes Ian's assistant, he'll probably have toremind me what to do."
Sitting off to one side, Lola overheard her husband's words and decided to ridicule him. "How many
people do you think have your character? You're the only one, and I've even bagged you up."
Logan's face turned grim at that. However, he didn't dare to be rude in front of his wife, so he still askedgently despite his stern expression, "Don't ridicule me in front of everyone, please, dear? Everyone'slooking. I'm still 'Young Master Logan' no matter what."
Lola snorted a laugh at that. "You're still mindful of your reputation in front of me? You might as well justsober up."
