He would have to leave after dinner. In fact, he would definitely stay if Nora allowed him to, but Nora simply ignored him.Even if he came to Old Pierce Manor, Nora only treated him according to her mood. She would talk to him and pay attention to him when she was in a good mood, but she would not go downstairs to see him or would just ignore him if she was in a bad mood. Julian did not get tired or mad at all; instead, he would always be smiling brightly whenever he came. This caused Nora to feel angry every time she saw his smile, making her want to ignore him even more.Julian felt somewhat innocent and helpless. He did not mean to smile like this, but he could not help it when he thought about his impending double happiness.It was truly a double happiness. He would be marrying the woman he loved, and she would be giving birth to his child. He would be accomplishing two major events in his life: Getting married and having a child at the same time. How could he not be happy?

Julian felt that he only needed to improve and manage his relationship with Ophelia in the future because of this matter. Ophelia would help him to deal with Greg then.The process of obtaining the marriage certificate went smoothly, but Nora was suddenly in a bad mood again when she saw the two copies of the marriage certificates and thought about how she had handed her life over just like that.She felt inexplicable panic, fear, confusion, and hesitation.Nora was still in a daze when Julian held her hand and returned to the car with her.After Julian leaned forward to help her fasten her seatbelt, he glanced at Nora and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”Nora snapped out of it and finally met his gaze. Julian could see through Nora’s inner thoughts with just a glance. He snorted loudly and said, “Don’t tell me you regret it.”Nora bit her lip. Julian glared at her fiercely and said, “It’s useless even if you regret it!”He then snatched the marriage certificate from her hand

Miya had to acknowledge that Jason was truly a good boyfriend. He bought a lot of specialties from Detroit and nutritional supplements for her parents in advance, which gave her a headache. She initially did not have any plans to bring anything back home. She wanted to give her parents money to buy what they needed when she got home. This was mainly because it would be inconvenient for her to carry a lot of things by herself. She had been working in Blackstone for many years and had never brought much home with her whenever she visited during the holidays. Instead, she would always give them money directly to save herself the trouble and effort, but Jason had gotten her a bunch of things to bring home now. She frowned instinctively. When Jason saw her expression, he hurriedly said, “Let me send you back. It’d be convenient if you put everything in the car.”Miya stood in the living room with her arms folded in front of her chest. She glanced at the pile of gifts, then at Jason. He

His tone sounded indifferent, which made Miya wonder if he was angry because she had insisted on not letting him come with her.She felt that things were progressing too quickly. How could she take Jason back to meet her parents after only a week of dating? Moreover, he even wanted to take her back home to meet his parents the day after they had just confirmed their relationship. There were so many variables in the future, so she wanted to take things step by step to feel at ease. There were indeed some differences in their understanding of how to deal with relationships.She did not know whether she was being too conservative or whether he was being too aggressive. Miya thought that they should communicate and have a good talk on this issue after she came back. It had been more than half a year since Miya had left home after the New Year. She used to work in Blackstone, and it was difficult for her to come back home because it was far away. She would only come home to visit her

“Dad, this is my boyfriend, Jason Maton.”She then said to Jason, “This is my dad.”Jason quickly greeted Henry with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Carter.”Henry glanced at Jason, nodded in response, and said to Miya, “Why are you standing downstairs? Take Jason upstairs.”He turned around and left after saying that. Based on her father’s expression, Miya was initially afraid that her father would not allow her to bring Jason into their house. Jason also sighed in relief, then he turned around, opened his car trunk, and took out the gifts that Miya had not accepted and carried it upstairs with her. Henry had already taken an elevator up first, whereas Miya and Jason took another one.When they were in the elevator, Jason, who was carrying the gifts, leaned against the elevator wall and said quietly to Miya, “I was so nervous just now that even my palms were sweating.”He was really nervous. In fact, Jason had never felt so nervous in his life. Miya glared at him angrily and said,
