Female Novel
Chapter 918
That night, Neera and Adriana discussed numerous details. However, the more they talked, the more confusedthey became.
In the end, they didn't manage to come up with a concrete plan.
The main issue was the myriad of details. There were just too many. It was impossible to make a decision soquickly.
“All right, let's call it a night for our discussion. We still have time, so let's take it slow.” Chad glanced at the timeand noticed it was getting late.
Worried that Adriana might be tired, he decided to interrupt the ongoing discussion between the aunt and niece.
Neera agreed and closed her notebook before saying goodnight.
After her bath, she stepped out of the bathroom and immediately noticed Jean sitting by her bed.
She paused in the middle of brushing her hair as her eyes widened in surprise. Then, she laughed. “What bringsyou here? Aren't you going to rest?”
Upon seeing the joy radiating from her eyes and brows, Jean lifted his eyebrow. As if he was infected by herhappiness, he smiled. “You're humming while taking a bath. Are you that happy?”
“You heard it...” Neera didn't feel embarrassed at all.
She was bathing and humming a tune because she was in a good mood. Unexpectedly, that man caught her in theact.
Quickly, she walked over and sat down beside him. “My aunt's wedding is about to be scheduled. It's such ajoyous occasion. How can I not be happy?”
Lifting his eyebrow, Jean naturally took the towel from her hand and helped her dry her hair.
“You're so focused on your aunt's wedding. Have you given any thought to us?” After holding that question in allnight, he couldn't bear it any longer and asked in a gentle voice. “You've already agreed to the proposal, so whatabout the wedding?”
A hint of embarrassment surfaced in Neera's bright and clear eyes. “Well, I really haven't thought about that.”
“You haven't?” Jean's eyes narrowed slightly, showing a hint of dissatisfaction.
He was thinking about it day and night, yet she didn't, which annoyed him.
Neera stuck out her tongue and quickly started to stroke his hair. “What's your opinion? I'd like to hear about itfirst.”
Jean said lightly, “Of course, the faster the better.”
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then added considerately, “Of course, I'm not forcing you.The most important thing is your plan.”
A warmth spread through Neera's heart, causing her to pause slightly in contemplation.
“Well, to be honest, I don't really have a clear idea myself. At the very least, shouldn't we wait until Aunt
Adriana's and Uncle Chad's wedding is over before we start considering it? After all, this is our wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime event. We can't just rush through it. We need to wait until this major affair is resolved, then, we canproperly plan our wedding.”
What she said made sense, leaving Jean unable to refute.
However, he still felt somewhat frustrated.
“My aunt's wedding must be grand, so the preparation process will certainly take a lot of time. Looking ahead,from planning to reception, it may take at least a year. By then, if we consider our own wedding and include thepreparation time, it'll require another year. All in all, we may have to wait at least two more years.” Neera did themath.
Indeed, it would take about that long.
Seeing the man's stern, displeased countenance, she wanted to laugh, yet couldn't help but coax him.
“Don't be upset. Even though we can't hold our wedding for now, we are already together. Isn't that great? With orwithout this wedding, I am yours. Even if it's delayed by two years, this fact will never change.” Although shespoke softly, melting the man's heart, the gloom within him did not dissipate.
After leaving Neera's room, he returned to his room and called for Ian to come in. “Find someone reliable to helpher aunt with the wedding preparations. Ideally, expedite the process so everything can be ready as soon aspossible.”
Seeing himself being valued and relied upon once again, Ian was so moved that he was on the verge of tears. “Mr.Beauvort, rest assured, I will not let you down. I will certainly arrange the wedding as quickly and efficiently as
possible!”
Jean was barely satisfied. He narrowed his eyes, threatening in a deep and mysterious tone. “The branch office inAlendor is short-staffed. If you can't handle this task, then you may as well spend the rest of your life in thatremote place. Don't bother coming back.” novelbin
Ian trembled, feeling so heartbroken that he wanted to cry. I really don't want to stay in Alendor...
