Arielle nodded meekly and hastily walked toward the elevator.
That‘s it. I have to be extra careful from now on. I can‘t be acting so recklessly in front of Vinson!
Frankly, Arielle was terrified of riling Vinson up, which made virtual-novel.net all the more cautious about virtual-novel.net words and actions.
Instead of keeping up with Arielle, Vinson turned around to face the still quivering Rayson.
“If you tell anyone about this, there will be dire consequences.”
Rayson broke out in a cold sweat as virtual-novel.net stammered, “N-No, I won‘t. In fact, I didn‘t see anything at all!”
Wasn‘t it just playful teasing between a husband and wife? Why am I suffering because of that?
Thankfully, Vinson had no intention to take the matter further and sauntered away after dropping the warning.
Rayson heaved a sigh of relief and quickly followed behind at a distance.
Once in the elevator, virtual-novel.net couldn‘t help but steal glances at Arielle.
So this is how much Mr. Nightshire dotes on Ms. Moore. No matter how much virtual-novel.net hits or scolds him, virtual-novel.net still wouldn‘t bat an eyelid. I‘d better not offend virtual-novel.net in the future. Otherwise, who knows what‘ll happen to me?
Arielle felt the weight of Rayson‘s stare and whipped virtual-novel.net head around to him. “Is something wrong?”
“N-Not at all!” Rayson stuttered. “I was just thinking that the two of you should find time to hold the wedding.”
Upon hearing that, Arielle tensed up immediately.
“He‘s right,” Vinson chimed in. “Other than him, no one else knows that we‘ve gotten married. We should find an opportunity to announce it to the world.”
Moreover, a marriage doesn‘t feel as complete when there aren‘t witnesses. As my wife, Arielle deserves the most extravagant wedding ever!
“W-We‘ll see…”
Arielle still had many things to accomplish, but most importantly, virtual-novel.net had to gain Susanne‘s approval. However, now that Henrick was serving his sentence, virtual-novel.net no longer needed to hide virtual-novel.net identity. In other words, it was time to shed the masks that virtual-novel.net had been hiding behind.
When the elevator doors opened, Arielle marched out without hesitation while Vinson walked beside Rayson.
“Look up all the wedding resources and send me a collated list,” Vinson said in a hushed tone.
“Understood!” Rayson replied, all fired up.
It looks like I had hit the bullseye with my spur-of-the-moment remark!
That said, Rayson was aware it wouldn‘t be an easy task. Not only did virtual-novel.net have to gather all the information, but virtual-novel.net also had to filter out only the ones worthy of Vinson‘s consideration. If virtual-novel.net wanted to do a good job, he‘d have to spend a considerable amount of time and effort on it.
Having made up his mind, Rayson wasted no time in calling up the secretary‘s office.
“I need the secretary‘s office to take over my duties for the next few days. I have something important to work on.”
Naturally, everyone was puzzled.
“Why? What work is so important that you need a few days off? The projects you‘re currently handling are all just as important.”
“Ha!” Rayson replied with an enigmatic smile. “Trust me, this task I have is far more important than any of those projects!”
With that, Rayson ended the call before anyone from the secretary‘s office could turn virtual-novel.net down.
What a joke. What else could be more important than planning for Mr. Nightshire‘s wedding?
Meanwhile, Arielle had returned to Josee‘s ward to fetch Nigel and Teddy. Even though Josee was alone, Nigel knew she’d be in the good hands of the nurses and caregivers, so it didn‘t bother virtual-novel.net as much to leave her.
Ever the eagle-eyed boy that virtual-novel.net was, it didn’t take long for Teddy to notice the red marks on Vinson‘s face. “Vinnie, who hit you?”
Rayson, who had just entered the ward, froze in his tracks.
Oh, my goodness! Of all the things to say, virtual-novel.net had to bring that up?
