Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1446

"So, you're saying these marriage certificates are real?" Esther still couldn't believe it, feeling like she was in a dream. She even felt overwhelmed holding the marriage certificates in her hands.

James frowned, a little impatient with her doubts. "Do you really want me to dig up the registration information from back then?"

Esther was completely defeated. "We're married now?"

James nodded. "You could say that. So now, you should come back home with me."

Esther couldn't shake the feeling that this marriage wasn't what she had imagined. It wasn't the wedding she envisioned in her childhood, and the simplicity of getting a marriage certificate felt too rushed. Besides, she hadn't forgiven him yet! Why should she comply so easily?

With these thoughts in mind, Esther couldn't help but feel resentment. Shaking her head, she pushed back. "No, I don't want to live with you just yet."

"You don't have a choice. You're coming with me."

His firm tone brought tears to Esther's eyes. "Who rushes into marriage like this anyway?" Esther's voice wavered with a touch of grievance. "And you didn't even tell me anything..."

James couldn't stand her crying the most. He softened his approach. "Alright, don't cry anymore." He walked around to her front, reaching out to wipe away her tears. "Tell me what's wrong. Why did you suddenly change your mind? You seemed fine earlier."

Esther blurted out her grievances. "You say we're married, but where's the proper wedding? You didn't even propose properly. I won't marry you!"

James's efficiency was remarkable. Esther didn't have to lift a finger as he arranged everything, even setting the wedding for a week later. She was left speechless by this news.

Amid her shock, James proposed to her at her birthday party, surrounded by friends. The proposal was grand and unforgettable.

While others might not understand, Esther was pleased. She was so delighted for days afterward that she couldn't sleep.
