~MERRY POV~I purchased the presents for my father and grandfather So, I called them, gathering in the hallway with me. "What happened, girl?" "Why have you gathered us together?" My grandfather inquired. "I have got a gift for you!" I smiled as I pulled a gift from the bag for my grandfather.Before approaching my grandfather, I rubbed my fingers on the scarf I had gotten for him. "Now, it is the rainy season Grandpa, and I want you to stay warm." I wrapped the scarf around his neck before admiring his beauty. "It is gorgeous!" My father chuckled as he gave me the response, giving me confidence in my choice.I exchanged a look with my father for a second before checking on my grandfather.It is a lovely green scarf that complements his skin and personality. "Did you like my present, Grandpa?" I inquired with curiosity, and I couldn't help but sigh—this was my first gift for him.My grandmother's secretary brought the mirror and kept it in front of him.

~JULIAN POV~She closed the file with a sound, and I looked at her. "I oppose this contract marriage!" "What do you think of yourself?" She gritted her teeth and clenched her fist against the table. "Hmm!" I made a sound. "I am asking you, what the heck do you think about me?" She pounded her fist against the table and screamed and within one sip, she drank the entire glass of water on the table. "Mr. Knight, marriage is not a game." She let a sigh out "According to my mother, marriage is a heart-to-heart bond between two people; it is not about signatures on papers." I was staring into her enraged eyes as she pointed out two fingers to me. "This fucking paper is not something I sign!" She pushed the file out of her reach.She stood up from the chair, clicked her tongue, and turned to head back out of the cabin.While standing on the chair, I couldn't help but grin. "Yes!" I clenched my fist while shaking my hand.My right side has a mirror, which c

~Julian POV~Everyone, including Lyra, is curious about Merry's wish. "I WANT YOU TO TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY WEDDING!" "I want you to watch my wedding starting from today to the end of the ceremony!" Merry saidI crossed my hands over my chest and looked at her with a smirk around the corner of my lips while understanding the reason behind her wish.This is the only way to stop her from destroying my wedding.Responsibility is extremely difficult to break.She wants to be a good daughter-in-law to Mr. Aiden, so she will not ruin the marriage once Lyra becomes our bridesmaid.Merry is brilliant—I smiled at my girl while crossing my hands over my chest, leaning against the wall, and looking at Merry. "What do you think, Grandpa? Merry looked over at Mr. Aiden. "She is the only elder woman in this house, and I believe she knows more about wedding rituals than we do!" She looked back to Lyra, who remained motionless. "I know you will not say NO to me!" "Af

~MERRY POV~I began to run up to him, smiling and staring at his face.I want to spend the rest of my life with him.He seemed to sense that I was getting closer to him; he turned back when I hugged him while wrapping my hands around his waist and leaning my head against his chest, closing my eyes.His heart skipped a beat as I hugged him, wrapping my hands around his waist and placing my head on his chest.I am so happy with the thought that it was not his idea to make our marriage into a contract. I rubbed my cheek against his chest and tightened my grip around his waist.The only question that popped into my mind as I opened my eyes: Julian, why didn't you tell me?I got angry and yelled at you, blaming you for not wanting to marry me—why did you not tell me at the time that Justin came up with the idea? Why, idiot, did you take my rage and apologise to me? With a thought, a smile appeared on my lips; he tolerated my rage and apologised to me repeatedly for no reason, but he nev

~MERRY POV~ "Let me take you to your groom!" My father looked at me before I exchanged a look with Julian, who was standing in the center of the stage.Yes, I am going to carry out my initial plan to come here—I am going to marry Julian! The light flashed on me, making me the center of attention.I shared a look with my father before taking steps with him to my destination, my groom.I rolled my eyes while checking the decorations of the event.The stage is on the upper level, and the rest of the space is decorated with flowers, light fixtures, chairs, and tables for guests to sit and enjoy.Each table had expensive wine and two sets of glasses.The servants have already started serving food.Indeed, the decorations are stunning. Last but not least, journalists and paparazzi gathered in the hallway, photographing and filming us.The red carpet is on the floor, and a few young ladies are standing in my way.As I moved forward on stage with my father, the young ladies began to thr
