Together, they savored the sweetness of the moment.
Lying back, Marcus turned to Melissa with satisfaction, declaring, âLetâs go dress shopping tomorrow.
We canât put off the wedding any longer.
â
He caressed her belly, adding, âOur baby deserves a stable home.
â
Melissa couldnât help but find him a tad shameless.
She composed herself, her voice softening.
âYour parents are adamant about keeping the original wedding date if you could get better.
Now that your sight has returned, letâs stick with that day.
â
Cradling his face, she continued, âBut honestly, any time works for me.
What matters is that weâll be together.
â
Having already completed their marriage registration, Melissa wasnât too concerned about the formalities.
Marcusâ gaze softened.
He understood Melissaâs indifference towards such matters, but he yearned to give her the grand wedding she deserved.
While it might not hold much significance for others, Marcus believed the wedding meant a great deal to Melissa.
After all, it symbolized her integration into the Fowler family.
He wanted to publicly proclaim her as his wife.
He wanted everyone to see that Melissa was no longer alone but had a loving family.
As they conversed, Marcus dialed Waylen, breaking the news of his regained eyesight.
Waylen remained composed, simply stating, âIf you can see, then come back to work tomorrow!â
Marcus glanced at his phone, a smile gracing his lips before turning to plant a ki*s on Melissaâs cheek.
âMelissa, weâll have our wedding as planned.
â
On an early autumn day, Marcus and Melissa exchanged vows.
The ceremony drew many attendees, including business elites and numerous friends of the groom.
However, there was a notable absence of relatives from the brideâs side.
Originally, Melissa was to walk down the aisle alone, but unexpectedly, Albert made an appearance.
He took Melissaâs hand and presented her to Marcus.
Daisy couldnât hide her displeasure.
âDoes Melissa hold that much importance? Is it necessary for you to play the role of her father on her wedding day?â
Marcus and Melissaâs wedding happened outside.
Daisy had some issues and Albert wasnât pleased.
âTo me, Melissaâs family; so of course I have to be on her wedding.
And Daisy, trust me, thereâs going to be loads more stuff to bug you in the future.
You better learn to keep these feelings to yourself.
â
Trying to hold back her anger, Daisy snapped, âYouâre such a jerk, Albert.
â
âLikewise.
â
Albert didnât stick around for her.
He just got up and headed straight for the door.
Melissa didnât expect this.
She looked a bit shocked when she saw him.
