Chapter 432
When they arrived in the city hall, Geoffrey’s assistant was already waiting.
Everything went smoothly, and the couple soon received their marriage certificate.
Rosalie stared at the marriage certificate in her hand, her heart racing. She suddenly felt a great deal of pressure. Even though she knew it was a fake marriage and she was only helping a friend, seeing the certificate still made her think about the time she got her certificate with Theodore.
Even though it was just over a year ago, it felt like decades.
As they exited the city hall, the assistant said, “Mr. and Mrs. Carter, the chairman has requested for you to go home right after you received the marriage certificate so you can have a meal together.”
Sebastian nodded. “Alright, I’ll take Rose back.”
The assistant left. He had completed his task of witnessing the couple obtaining the certificate in person and ensuring it wasn’t a forgery.
After the assistant departed, the two of them looked at each other while holding the marriage certificate. The air between them was a bit awkward.
Rosalie put the certificate back in her bag. To make Sebastian feel less burdened, she looked up and smiled. “See, the problem is solved. You don’t need the arranged marriage anymore.”
“But it’s still unfair to you,” Sebastian said, feeling guilty.
Rosalie shook her head. “There’s nothing unfair about it. I don’t feel wronged at all. Even though we’re married, you’re free. Just don’t let your family know about anything you do.”
Sebastian responded with a simple “Okay.”
“Alright, let’s go. We need to have a meal with your family. Let’s give them a show.”
The two of them got in the car, and went to the Carter Residence.
At the dinner table, everyone gathered around. They were all Carter family members.

Xyla was always very quiet. Last night, she had said very little. Even though Geoffrey had asked her to speak a few times, it was mostly him who talked. Today was the same-Xyla didn’t speak, as if she didn’t have anything to do with the family. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Rosalie felt a bit uneasy because of the silence. Everyone seemed to have different thoughts about her.
“Rose, this is really delicious,” Yvonne said, putting a piece of meat on Rosalie’s plate.
“Look at you,” Geoffrey said indifferently. “She’s your sister-in-law now. You should acknowledge that.”
He didn’t sound stern; it seemed he was quite pleased with his son’s marriage as well.
Yvonne smiled. “Welcome to the family, Sister-in-law.”
She didn’t mind calling Rosalie that. She had wanted to for a long time, and now, she could do it openly. Rosalie smiled, and nodded. No one had ever called her “Sister-in-law” before.This belongs © NôvelDrama.Org.
“What are your plans for the wedding?” Geoffrey asked.
“Since Rosalie and I are now
there’s no reason to
mwedding. We should pick ysbet

best date for it,” Sebastian replied. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
“There’s no rush, but you should take her shopping. Buy her some clothes, jewelry, and some other things,” Geoffrey said. “Alright, Dad. I’ll buy them for Rosalie.”
Geoffrey put down his cutlery. “The wedding can wait until your mother and I return. You can plan it by then.”
Sebastian was puzzled by Geoffrey’s words. “Where are you and Mom going?”
“Your mother and I planned to go on
a vacation. We were going to wait
until after your wedding with Tammy, but you married Rose
l
instead. Now, your mother and can deal with our own affairs,” Geoffrey said. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

“Mom and Dad, where are you going for vacation?” Yvonne asked curiously.
