After Emeraude's mother showed signs of fatigue, the decision to leave was made. Initially, Alice hesitated, but the grandmother soon managed to persuade the little one to join them.

She got into her mother's car, closing the door with a bit more force than necessary. Her mother looked at her, and she just shook her head.

The journey back was quick and peaceful. Upon arrival, Emeraude got out of the car and took the little one in her arms for her mother. The child promptly rested her head on Emeraude's shoulder, visibly exhausted after spending so much time in the water.

"Daughter, could you give her a bath, please?" the mother asked, and Emeraude nodded.

"Mom, I'm not sleeping here tonight. You can put her to bed in my room," Emeraude said as they walked to the front door of the house.

    As Emeraude threw the bouquet, she turned to face the sea of women before her, somewhat confused about who had actually caught the bouquet."Oh my God!" exclaimed her mother, holding the bouquet. Emeraude observed her, unsure whether to laugh or feel happy."Looks like my mother-in-law is next in line to get married," Cassian joked quietly, laughing. "YEAH WOOHOO!" he shouted, clapping.Emeraude walked over to her mother, who was already composed among the women again. Her smile was so radiant that Emeraude couldn't help but smile too.

    Emeraude woke up to her mother's firm voice calling her. Opening her eyes, she sat up in bed, feeling a bit dizzy from the sudden movement. Looking around, she noticed she was alone in bed, with her mother standing at the door, watching her closely."I can't believe you're still sleeping!" her mother scolded, hands on her hips. "You should have been at the salon already, Emeraude.""What time is it?" Emeraude asked, getting up slowly this time."Almost 10 o'clock. You have 30 minutes," the young lady replied, leaving and closing the door behind her.Emeraude took a deep breath and grabbed her phone, feeling tempted to call Cassian, but she knew he would be busy. She headed to the bathroom and soon began to undress to take a shower. As the water cascaded over her, her thoughts wandered to the previous night, when she had a small gathering with the women at her apartment. She had decided not to have a bachelorette party; she was happy with the direction her life was taking now. After fi

Léon kept talking about the projects and profits they were generating, something Cassian already knew very well."I'd prefer to wait a bit and analyze the proposals," he interrupted, trying to end the discussion.Margot smiled proudly. "As always.""Can we wrap this up?" he asked, adjusting himself in his chair.Everyone agreed, and Cassian concluded the meeting. He left the folders for Chloe to organize and left, exchanging some cordial words with those present before heading to the elevator."Who would've thought that boy who used to hit on me will get married tomorrow," Margot commented as they waited for the elevator."You didn't want me, so I found someone else," Cassian joked, receiving a light slap."We're old enough to be your mothers," Margot replied, jokingly."I've heard that many times," Cassian agreed, stepping into the elevator."I'm proud of you; you've become a great man," Margot said,
