Craig had never been good at expressing himself.noveldrama
But how could one remain unmoved hearing Aurora speak like that?
"Aurora, I'm afraid you'll regret this."
Especially if she came to regret their difference in social standing later on, he wouldn't even have a reason to ask her to stay.
All he could do was let her go, no matter how reluctant he felt.
"If I were going to have regrets, I'd call off the wedding right now, not sit here holding your hand," she said, reaching out to grasp Craig's hand. "I've always believed that you just haven't had your break yet. In the future, you're going to make something great of yourself! But don't feel pressured by this; no matter what, you're my husband and the father of my children."
He looked at Aurora for a long moment, then slowly nodded. "Yeah."
"Let's have a good meal and a good rest today. Tomorrow's our big day, and I need my groom to be on top form!"
...
Night fell on Bay Residence.
Tomorrow was their daughter's wedding day, and Dorothy had cleared her schedule in advance to prepare.
The fact that Abigail was marrying the man she loved filled Dorothy with joy.
"Which should I wear, this dress or the cocktail dress?" Dorothy asked, caught in her typical indecision. She held up two outfits in front of Everett, hoping for his help in choosing. Everett, sitting on the couch and setting aside his book to look up at his wife, replied, "The cocktail dress." "Why?"
"It's more conservative."
Dorothy shot him a look but ultimately chose the cocktail dress after comparing them in the mirror.
Everett came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her, sighing, "Just like that, Abigail's getting married." "Yeah! If Langston and Felicity hadn't had their fallout, we'd be celebrating two happy occasions this year." "I'm getting old."
At that, Dorothy turned to look at him closely, "Not at all. You're still as handsome as ever!"
He gently tapped her forehead.
"I'm not talking about my looks."
"Then what?"
"I've started to fear death."
Dorothy blinked, almost unable to believe what she'd heard.
Everett afraid of death?
"Honey, you once said that in our next life, you'd be the one to fall for me first. Does that still stand?"
His fear wasn't about not having enjoyed life enough or losing his wealth and status.
He was worried about whether he'd meet Dorothy in the next life.
After so many years together, she instantly understood what Everett meant.
Grinning, she hugged him back, "Of course! I want to know what it's like to have a secret crush too. But let me be clear, if I write you a love letter and you don't respond, just find someone else to crush on."
"... You wouldn't dare?"
Dorothy shrugged, "Why not? In the next life, you wouldn't have fallen for me first, so even if I did find

Everett frowned in thought, finding some logic in her words.
"Then forget it, I'll be the one to fall for you first."
That way, he could keep an eye out and chase away any unwelcome suitors from Dorothy's side!
