Semua Bab You Wed Your Past; I Wed My Future: Bab 421 - Bab 430

"It's not that long!" Stephanie refuted. "Besides, what happened in the past wasn't entirely your fault! Anyway, that's enough brooding, Wynette! It's all in the past now, so don't take it to heart!"Wynette giggled in return. "Alright, then. I'm off to work now!"Lately, she was extremely busy with her new projects, but she was still elated. After all, those projects gave her more authority in Sweeney Group.There was no way Keith would be able to entrust both the company and his assets to his illegitimate children this time!After ending the video call, Stephanie ate her nutritious meal slowly. When she recalled Wynette's words, she frowned slightly. But soon, she shook her head gently, not wanting to dwell on those thoughts.She wasn't close with Gabriel, to begin with. Plus, she didn't plan on crossing paths with him ever again. In the future, there was absolutely no need for her to even get in touch with him.Anyway, Stephanie was more curious as to who Adrian planned on tak

"Oh, is that it?" Pierce didn't doubt Aleysha's excuse at all. He just smiled gently at her, his tone now laced with a hint of comfort."Adrian is my best friend, whereas Ms. Ford is his fiancee. They are my buddies, so you don't have to be shy around them."Aleysha squeezed out a smile. "Yeah, I know."Of course she knew that she didn't have to act all shy and embarrassed around Adrian and Stephanie. But she couldn't just tell Pierce that her heart was swarmed with all sorts of emotions just because she heard Gabriel's name, right?If Pierce were to find out about her feelings for Gabriel… then everything would be ruined.Aleysha soon remembered that Pierce had mentioned seeing Gabriel attending Grover Group's product launch event. He mustn't have known that she had been replaying the clips of the stream featuring Gabriel's silhouette at the event over and over again in the past few days.Even though all of the clips only lasted for a few minutes when compiled together, and th

"Hello."Stephanie passed the bouquet of flowers to Julia. Julia accepted the bouquet with a bright smile on her face. She looked at Stephanie with affection as well as a faint trace of heartbreak in her eyes."So you're Stephanie! Amelia always talked about you in front of me. Ah, right—Amelia is Adrian's mother," she said smilingly. "She kept praising you, telling me how beautiful and understanding you are, and the fact that Adrian is super lucky to be able to date you. Now that I look at you, Amelia's words ring true."When Stephanie heard that her future mother-in-law kept praising her, she felt a little embarrassed.She smiled at Julia afterward. "You and Mrs. Hawke are far too nice to me. I'm the one who's lucky enough to be able to meet Adrian."Adrian turned to look at her, a small smile curving on his lips. Then, he lifted an arm to wrap it around her shoulders.When Julia noticed how close the couple were, the smile in her eyes grew stronger."Come now, take a seat."

If Stephanie couldn't stay strong, she wouldn't be able to survive at all back when she found out that she could no longer dance. On top of that, she wouldn't have lasted throughout her entire rehabilitation process.At that moment, Adrian walked into the ward."All preparations are ready."When he saw Stephanie rising from the couch, he quickly walked over and took her hand."Don't be scared," he said gently."Oh, relax. I'm not scared at all. Dr. Lombard already made it clear that it's just a regular checkup," Stephanie replied."That's right," Julia said reassuringly with a smile. "Adrian cares for you a lot. He's acting all nervous even when you're just undergoing a checkup."Stephanie flashed Adrian a smile. She then jiggled his hand as a gesture for him not to worry about her.Soon, a small group of doctors and nurses, who were meant to serve Stephanie, came over and led her away for her checkup. Julia followed them into the examination room.As for Adrian, he kept waiti

It was already midnight by the time Tyler arrived at Jetterpolis. When he saw Martha, who stuck to his side like glue the whole time, he couldn't help but frown.At first, he didn't want Martha to go to Jetterpolis with him. But she insisted on following him, citing that she was worried about him.But now that Tyler thought about it, it was a good thing that Martha tagged along. It'd be easier to get in contact with Hector with her around.The car that was here to pick them up had long since been parked at the airport's entrance. Martha was already sleepy, so she leaned against the backseat and closed her eyes immediately after getting into the car.Tyler, on the other hand, wasn't drowsy in the slightest. He looked at the cityscape, his mind filled with Stephanie's silhouette."Steph, now I'm in the same city as you once again," he thought.They were supposed to be a happy couple.If Kiara wasn't around, Tyler and Stephanie would've registered their marriage for real.
