“There’s been a slight change in our plans.”Noah declared with a hint of frustration in his voice as he ended the call with his grandfather.“Change? What changed?”, Lola asked with a frown as she stopped poking at her food to look up at him. “My grandfather seems to want more than just registering our marriage and getting the certificate. He also wishes that we stay in the family home together with the rest of the family for at least two weeks.”Stay in the family home?! “Is there no way around that?” Lola asked with widened eyes.
