Chapter 1828: The Wedding Ends, Time to Recognize Kinship
At this moment, Jane linked her son's arm and smiled as she said to him, "In the homes of these two aunties, they each have an outstanding daughter who is also single and about your age. Would you like to exchange WeChat numbers and chat with them?"
Tom Fritz looked at his mother with a smile and gently reminded her, "Mom, I already have a girlfriend. I just haven't had a chance to tell you yet."
As he finished speaking, he glanced at his watch and added, "I have some matters to attend to at work, so I need to leave. You can chat with them." With that, he waved goodbye to the two aunties and walked away.
Jane knew that her son couldn't accept this kind of arranged marriage, and in fact, he didn't have a girlfriend.
"Madam, your son has a girlfriend. How come you didn't know?" a servant asked.
"What's the big deal? Nowadays, children only bring someone home when they plan to get married," she replied.
Jane just listened and smiled, not saying anything more.
Not far away, Jennifer and Jack sat across from each other at a table, drinking coffee in the sunlight.
She told her master everything that had happened with Lu Layeka, including Eden's story, his fate, and that night of pouring rain when Eden fell from grace.
She also mentioned the effectiveness of the medicine on the king's illness...
And Master's death, which was also related to Eden.
As Jack listened to her recounting all this, he couldn't help but feel a bit heavy-hearted on this joyous day. "Eden brought it upon himself. He harmed too many people. He doesn't deserve to live even a hundred times over."
Recalling the past inevitably brought sadness, but now it was the best outcome, and no one would be hurt anymore.
"Master, take care of yourself," Jennifer said to him. "I'll come to visit you regularly when I have free time."
"You're pregnant now. You should prioritize your health over work."
"I know."
On this day, Rowan was especially happy because Mr. Swain and Belinda finally remarried. Next, her sister would have no worries and could fulfill her promise.
To fulfill their father's only wish was Rowan's greatest desire, and she saw a glimmer of hope.
Since their father was still at home, Rowan brought Claire back to the villa after offering their blessings.
The old king was taking a walk in the yard. When he saw the car driving in, he hurriedly walked up. "Why are you back? Weren't you going to attend a friend's wedding ceremony? Hasn't the dinner started yet?"
"Hello, Uncle," Claire changed her way of addressing him. "The ceremony is over, and you're still at home. Have you eaten?"
"I just ate," Bertie said happily when he saw her, his face filled with affection. Then the three of them walked inside.
"Father," Rowan began, trying to persuade him, "why don't you stay a little longer in Arkpool City? We'll take you to nearby attractions in the afternoon." "Aren't you busy at the hospital?"
"Not busy."
On the way back just now, Rowan had already discussed with Claire where to take their father in the afternoon, and they had planned out a route. Actually, Bertie had planned to book a flight back to his country today and had shared this idea with his son.
He had accomplished his mission in Arkpool City and had met the elders of his future daughter-in-law's family.
But his son wanted to take him out, and he thought it was a good idea. It was rare to have such quality time together.
To get to know the city where his son had lived for many years would be like understanding his son's life during those years.
In the evening, at the wedding venue.
Guests bid farewell to Belinda and Algerone one by one, still filled with emotions. It had been a long time since they had gathered like this since high school graduation. After the guests had all left, only Belinda, Algerone, and Monica remained.
The three of them sat in a cozy café with elegant surroundings and warm yellow lights.
Freshly served coffee sat in front of them, and Algerone asked his daughter, "Monica, when do you plan to meet your father?"
This question couldn't be avoided, so it was brought up on the table.
