Chapter 428 Getting Married
Honan didn’t show up in the following days.
Emelie didn’t have time to deal with him anyway.
Sophie had arrived at Capebatt City and Emelie had to arrange for her mother’s treatment. The New Year festivities passed just like that.
Emelie took care of Greta for yet another night.
While Emelle was dozing off on a folding bed, her phone vibrated
She was still groggy, but she had already answered the call. “Hello?!
When she didn’t hear an answer, she put it on speaker mode. “Hello? Who is this? Are you the doctor?”
“ar’s your husband.” William’s voice came through.
Emelie jolted awake and looked at the screen. The caller ID showed William’s name
She had been busy taking care of her mother over the past few days and had only texted him briefly
She knew that he was spending the new year with his family. Powerful families like his were bound by traditions, so he didn’t have time to see her.
She was caught off guard by his call and stammered, “What’s up?”
william chuckled. “What’s up? Put the phone down, grab your calendar, and take a good long look. What day is it today?”
Emelie instinctively followed his instruction and saw the date on the calendar.
She gasped.
William said slowly, “It’s the ninth day. The city hall is open, Mrs. Middleton, I’m outside the hospital right now. Don’t forget your identification card.” Only then did Emelle remember that they had agreed to get married after the New Year, and she sat up straight.
William said with amusement, “Hurry up, slowpoke”
He hung up, leaving Emelie to slowly regain her composure. She took some time to regain her senses, and she realized her heart was beating faster. Though they had discussed it before the New Year, due to her recent circumstances, she hadn’t been thinking about it at all. So, it felt sudden and surreal Were they really getting married and becoming husband and wie?
Greta had heard their conversation and reached out to pat Emelie’s head, snapping her out of her daze.
She smiled and said, “Don’t keep him waiting Go and get ready.”
Emelie stumbled into the bathroom, the fog in her mind clearing as she splashed water on her face.
She couldn’t decide what to wear.
Greta suggested, “The white one. The picture background is red, so white will look nice and stand out
Emelie placed the clothes down and walked over to Greta She hugged her and burled her face in her shoulder. “But you haven’t even met his parents. Won’t it bother you?” Greta stroked her hair affectionately. “A person’s true character reveals itself over time. And from what I’ve seen, Willam is a good man. He’s been sending meals and fruits every day, making sure you’re healthy and getting the right nutrients. I trust he can take care of you well.
Emelie nazzled closer.
Greta continued, “Ultimately, you’ll be spending your life with him. As long as he treats you well and you like him, what’s there to object to?”
Greta, having been at the verge of death, knew that she didn’t have long to live. Her greatest wish was to see Emelie settled and happy. She knew that witnessing that would be immensely comforting, and she would die without any regrets.
Greta took out Emelie’s identification card from the drawer and said, “Go on. He’s so eager, so have faith that he’ll take good care of you!
Emelie took Greta’s suggestion and wore the white shirt.
As she was leaving the hospital, she texted Mona and Ashley, announcing that she was registering her marriage with William today
Mona and Ashley replied to her immediately.
Mona sent a string of question marks while Ashley texted, “Do you need a prenup template?”
Emelie declined politely,
Muna didn’t wait for Emelie to reply and called her straight away.
However, Emmelie rejected the call because she had walked out of the hospital and spotted William waiting at the side, William was more important at the moment
Mona, who had just received the shocking news without any details, was restless on her train ride.
She felt that the train was moving too slowly and wished she could speed it up herself to get to Emilie right away. She wanted to grab Emelie and asked her what had happened
She had missed a whole chapter of her friend’s life just because she had gone home for the new year.
The last time they spoke, Emelie had said that William was pursuing her. She had also promised she wouldn’t fall for him.
But look at her now!
