That night, Neera and Adriana discussed numerous details. However, the more they talked, the more confused they became.

In the end, they didn’t manage to come up with a concrete plan.

The main issue was the myriad of details. There were just too many. It was impossible to make a decision so quickly.

“All right, let’s call it a night for our discussion. We still have time, so let’s take it slow.” Chad glanced at the time and noticed it was getting late.

Worried that Adriana might be tired, he decided to interrupt the ongoing discussion between the aunt and niece.

Neera agreed and closed her notebook before saying goodnight.

After her bath, she stepped out of the bathroom and immediately noticed Jean sitting by her bed.

She paused in the middle of brushing her hair as her eyes widened in surprise. Then, she laughed.

“What brings you here? Aren’t you going to rest?”

Upon seeing the joy radiating from her eyes and brows, Jean lifted his eyebrow. As if he was infected by her happiness, he smiled. “You’re humming while taking a bath. Are you that happy?”

“You heard it…” Neera didn’t feel embarrassed at all..

She was bathing and humming a tune because she was in a good mood. Unexpectedly, that man caught her in the act.

Quickly, she walked over and sat down beside him. “My aunt’s wedding is about to be scheduled. It’s such a joyous occasion. How can I not be happy?”

Lifting his eyebrow, Jean naturally took the towel from her hand and helped her dry her hair.

“You’re so focused on your aunt’s wedding. Have you given any thought to us?” After holding that question in all night, he couldn’t bear it any longer and asked in a gentle voice. “You’ve already agreed to the proposal, so what about the wedding?”

A hint of embarrassment surfaced in Neera’s bright and clear eyes. “Well, I really haven’t thought about that.”

“You haven’t?” Jean’s eyes narrowed slightly, showing a hint of dissatisfaction.

He was thinking about it day and night, yet she didn’t, which annoyed him.

Neera stuck out her tongue and quickly started to stroke his hair. “What’s your opinion? I’d like to hear about it first.”

Jean said lightly, “Of course, the faster the better.”

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then added considerately, “Of course, I’m not forcing you. The most important thing is your plan.”

A warmth spread through Neera’s heart, causing her to pause slightly in contemplation.

A warmth spread through Neera’s heart, causing her to pause slightly in contemplation.

“Well, to be honest, I don’t really have a clear idea myself. At the very least, shouldn’t we wait until Aunt Adriana’s and Uncle Chad’s wedding is over before we start considering it? After all, this is our wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime event. We can’t just rush through it. We need to wait until this major affair is resolved, then, we can properly plan our wedding.”

What she said made sense, leaving Jean unable to refute.

However, he still felt somewhat frustrated.

“My aunt’s wedding must be grand, so the preparation process will certainly take a lot of time. Looking ahead, from planning to reception, it may take at least a year. By then, if we consider our own wedding and include the preparation time, it’ll require another year. All in all, we may have to wait at least two more years.” Neera did the math.

Indeed, it would take about that long.

Seeing the man’s stern, displeased countenance, she wanted to laugh, yet couldn’t help but coax him.

“Don’t be upset. Even though we can’t hold our wedding for now, we are already together. Isn’t that great? With or without this wedding, I am yours. Even if it’s delayed by two years, this fact will never change.” Although she spoke softly, melting the man’s heart, the gloom within him did not dissipate.

After leaving Neera’s room, he returned to his room and called for lan to come in. “Find someone reliable to help her aunt with the wedding preparations. Ideally, expedite the process so everything can be ready as soon as possible.”

Seeing himself being valued and relied upon once again, lan was so moved that he was on the verge of tears. “Mr. Beauvort, rest assured, I will not let you down. I will certainly arrange the wedding as quickly and efficiently as possible!”

Jean was barely satisfied. He narrowed his eyes, threatening in a deep and mysterious tone. “The branch office in Alendor is short-staffed. If you can’t handle this task, then you may as well spend the rest of your life in that remote place. Don’t bother coming back.”

lan trembled, feeling so heartbroken that he wanted to cry. I really don’t want to stay in Alendor…
