The lady at the marriage registration office probably had never seen someone as good-looking as these two. She asked time and again, "Are you really not celebrities? Do you have stage names?"
Emily was worried that the staff would find her look too young for her age. (Vincent had added three years on her age.)
Now that she heard the question, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she smiled and answered, "No, we are really not celebrities."
Vincent stood there indifferently. Only when his eyes fell on Emily would he show a trace of tenderness.
When they took photos, Emily understood why they should put on makeup. The photographing process was too fast. The couples ahead of them happily took photos and wanted to take a look, only to find them unsatisfied with the photos. A girl pleaded with the photographer, "Let's us do it again, please!"
"Just one more chance," the photographer compromised.
However, they were still dissatisfied with the second one. They came here happily, but when they left, the girl was so sad that she forgot to take the marriage certification.
The photographer muttered, "You can take the photo yourself and bring it here. Why so picky?"
He shouted to the outside, "Next pair."
Vincent held Emily's hand and they walked in. The photographer had just picked up the camera and looked up at the tall man. "Young man, you are so tall."
Then he saw Emily standing beside Vincent. His eyes swept across them in surprise. "You two are so good-looking."
They sat down in their chairs. Emily sat stiffly and Vincent always had a cold face. The photographer took the camera and looked at it for a moment. "You are married. Smile and get closer."
Emily stole a glance at Vincent. Seeing his cold face, she couldn't help but laugh out. Vincent turned to look at Emily and was amused by her.
"Watch the camera!" The photographer shouted, "Come closer!"
In the photo, Vincent held Emily close to him. Emily was beaming with smile, her eyes curved like crescents. There was undisguisable tenderness in Vincent's eyes. The curved of his lips softened his coldness.
When the two walked out with the marriage certificate, Emily said to Vincent, "From now on, you have a wife. You can't flirt with other girls."
Vincent pinched her nose, "When did I flirt with other girls?"
"I'm just warning you. Our Britt family have discipline and rules. Since you are now a member of my family, you have to obey the rules." Emily prattled on, "You should be worthy of being my husband."
"Alright." Vincent was amused.
Emily put away the marriage certificate. She turned around and saw many people standing at the door. Susan, the butler, Sydnee, Lynn, Eliot, Ferne, Noah, Randy, Armando, Jaquan, Emma, Janessa, Christy, and beside was... Trevor?
Emily looked at him in disbelief. The young and handsome boy looked at her with an innocent smile. Then, he looked beside Emily, "Vincent."
All of them were smiling. Seeing the couple come out, they said in chorus, "Happy Marriage!"
With that, each one pulled a ribbon cracker in their hands. Colorful ribbons flew all over the sky. The photographer focused on their faces and, in the end, turned the camera to Emily and Vincent.
Emily couldn't help but laugh. "Why are you all here?" She turned to look at Vincent. "Did you ask them to come?"
"My wife asked me to invite them here," Vincent leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear.
Emily was speechless.
Emily remembered she has mentioned it casually last night... but Vincent called her wife...
He had the urge to throw away his walking stick and peel off Vincent's face to see if he was wearing a mask.
Sydnee pulled him over to the sofa in time. "Come and drink tea with us. We are missing one person."
They were not playing cards. How could they miss a person?
Eliot was dragged to the sofa. He asked, "Why did you all hide it from me?"
"This is a long story..." Sydnee said with difficulty.
"Then let's make it short." Eliot took a sip of tea.
Sydnee said, "Alright."
Ferne and Rex were playing with the chubby little puppy in a small suit in the garden. From time to time, their calling of "Candy" came through the window.
Emily came out of the bathroom and met Trevor in the corridor. This was the first time she saw Trevor's face. She stared at him for a while and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Trevor was looking at her art studio. It was connected with Vincent's study. When Vincent read, she would draw on the side. In the evening, they could lay on the lounge chair and watched the sunset outside the window.
Emily had drawn a few paintings in the studio these days, and coincidentally, one of them was Christy. Christy had an exquisite face. Her eyebrows were dark and long and had a beautiful curve. Her lips were rosy and her teeth ivory. Two golden earrings dangled down her earlobes. And the most charming was her sparkling eyes.
Emily was impressed by Christy in her red dress when they first met.
"Can you give me this painting?" Trevor asked.
