Chapter 1090 Wedding (1) Arrive at Jolencami

Manuel and Susan arrived at Jolencami first. Besse never thought they would come. When she sent the invitation to Susan, she wrote a handwritten note that said, "You don't have to come along to the wedding, your thoughts matter more than your actions." She was worried about her being pregnant and getting tired from travelling.

But if she didn't send an invitation to her, Besse knew Susan's personality too well. If she didn't receive one, she would still show up with all sorts of trouble.

As it turned out, whether or not an invitation was sent out, Susan still came. And she was very excited about it too. It was her first time in Jolencami and she declared that she wanted to try all the delicious food there.

Besse felt sorry for Manuel sometimes. Having such a troublesome wife must be quite an experience for him. But looking at Manuel's indulgent smile on his face made Besse think that maybe it wasn't so bad after all.

Besse arranged for them to stay at the best hotel in Jolencami and accompanied them to eat dinner together at a restaurant with Doyle joining them as well.

Even though both of them were busy two days before the wedding day itself, they still took time out of their schedules just for their guests' sake. This made Susan feel embarrassed but also somehow expectedly special while making Besse feel relaxed around her as well.

It felt different compared to when they were together in Northfield. Something had changed within Besse herself, perhaps she had become more cheerful.

"Your steak is prepared using high-tech sterilization methods with tomato sauce instead, so you won't get indigestion." Explained Besse while pointing towards Susan's plate.

"I don't want that! I want black pepper sauce!" protested Susan stubbornly.

"The doctor said you're going into labour soon so you need to watch what you eat especially since we're abroad." Said Manuel.

"Manuel!" Susan tried to protest.

"Did you forget what you promised me?"

Besse couldn't help but laugh seeing how much joy this lively woman brought into their lives despite being such a handful sometimes.

Besse cut the steak into small pieces and put them in front of Doyle. Susan couldn't help but be jealous of Doyle.

"My right hand is not convenient," Doyle explained, also seeing Susan's eager eyes. "I have no feeling and it's hard to hold a knife, so I can't cut my steak. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a bad husband." Susan suddenly realized this and quickly shook her head. "I don't think you're a bad husband. I just think your wife is too good to you."

Besse wasn't accustomed to the "husband and wife" addresses between Doyle and her, but didn't say anything in the end.

Doyle laughed heartily as he was obviously in a good mood after dinner. Manuel and Susan were both tired by now so Besse and Doyle left the hotel without disturbing them any further. They sat in the back seat of their luxury car as they drove away.

"I never thought you would agree to marry me," Doyle said with surprise. "I always thought you wouldn't agree so quickly. I felt like many things had changed about you since we came back from Northfield that I didn't recognize."

"Doyle, do you like me?" Besse suddenly asked him seriously.

Doyle was taken aback before answering very affirmatively, "Yes."

Besse just smiled though.

"Don't you like me anymore?" Doyle couldn't help asking again.

Besse shook her head saying, "I like you."

Besse liked Doyle.

"It's enough if you like me. I'm afraid that one day suddenly won't anymore," said Doyle as he took Besse's hand proactively. "You don't know when we first met how much desire arose within me to marry you, now after all these years finally getting what I wanted makes me feel like the happiest man on earth."

Besse looked at him tightly then.

Did he love her since childhood?

Doyle also looked at Besse somewhat lost in thought. Everything seemed unreal for him right now.

When they returned to Jolencami, there seemed some rejection from Besse towards him, which made him feel maybe she had no feelings for him anymore. He proposed with the worst-case scenario, thinking that even if he failed at least he gave himself another chance but unexpectedly succeeded.

But even during his proposal, Besse didn't immediately say yes, instead saying she needed time to consider before answering the next day.

Besse said that after thinking about it all night, she decided to marry him. The joy at that moment was overwhelming and he could still feel it now. Just the thought of it made his heart race.

Doyle couldn't resist and leaned in closer to her. Besse's eyes flickered as she looked at Doyle up close, his face magnified before her. At the moment when Doyle was about to kiss her lips, Besse turned her face and his kiss landed on her cheek instead. Doyle felt a bit embarrassed because it seemed like she always rejected him whenever he tried to get close to her.

But other times, she was attentive and caring towards him in every way possible. He didn't know what kind of feelings Besse had for him.

"Let's wait until our wedding day." Besse smiled beautifully, noticing the disappointment in his eyes.

Since returning from Northfield, she had rejected Doyle countless times but seeing how hurt he was each time only made herself more indifferent towards him. "I'll surprise you on that night." She said.

Doyle's dim eyes lit up again because of those words from Besse. Sometimes she felt like Doyle was just a big boy with no ulterior motives, simple-minded yet stubbornly determined. She didn't want to hurt him.

"What surprise?" asked he.

"If I tell you then it won't be a surprise anymore."

Doyle didn't push her. He would know what it was within two days anyway, though he was desperately expectant.

Inside a luxurious hotel room, Susan had changed into comfortable pyjamas while lying on the bed after Manuel helped her take a shower and dry her hair. She was chatting on her phone. "Who are you chatting with?" Manuel asked.

"Who else besides Oscar?" Susan laughed wickedly with an evil grin on her face.
