Chapter: 736
“When I reach out to you later,” he uttered in a composed manner, “kindly dispatch this exquisite
wedding dress to the indicated address.”
Lilyana’s gaze momentarily grazed the paper, its contents revealing a name foreign to her.
“Ariana,” she murmured, her voice tinged with curiosity. “Is that the young Lady’s name? It possesses
such a delightful melody.”
Caught in the gentle sway of her own thoughts, Lilyana couldn’t help but recall Ariana’s apprehensive
countenance upon their initial encounter. Nudging Theodore’s recollection, she voiced her
observations, “Upon her arrival, Ariana seemed burdened by numerous thoughts, particularly regarding
Marley. Her concern was palpable.”
In that instance, a sigh escaped her lips, laden with empathy.
Fervently, she implored, “Since your bond is undeniably founded in ‘love, why not divulge your identity
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtas Marley’s brother to her?”
Theodore’s countenance wavered upon hearing the mention of that name. A fleeting falter and
subsequent silence enveloped him. After a contemplative pause, he finally mustered the courage to
respond, “I do not deserve to bear the title of Marley’s brother. I have failed her.”
“Ah, child, Let go the burden that binds you.” Lilyana, overcome by a profound sorrow, sighed deeply.
“Marley’s demise was an unfortunate accident, not your fault. Cease tormenting yourself with past
missteps and embrace the precious soul who stands before you.”
Clearly averse to further discussion on this matter, Theodore discreetly stowed away his phone, his
eyes evading direct contact. In hushed tones, he whispered, “I have pressing matters to attend to, so I
shall take my Leave.”
Lilyana refrained from pursuing the conversation, simply acknowledging his departure with a nod.
Guiding Theodore to the doorway, Lilyana suddenly recalled a crucial matter and felt compelled to offer
a gentle reminder. “By the way, I couldn’t help but notice a certain unease in your wife’s demeanor
earlier. It would be wise to grant her your unwavering attention and care.”
Lilyana wanted to express something else, but Theodore swiftly interrupted her, his words cutting
through the air, “Alright, I understand. Thank you, I will.”
Without giving her a chance to utter another word, he hastily slipped into the car parked by the
roadside.
Helpless, Lilyana sighed, her eyes fixed on Theodore’s gradually retreating car.
What she had wanted to say was that Ariana might be pregnant.
In the shop, she had observed Ariana instinctively cradling her belly multiple times, displaying the
telltale signs of a pregnant woman.
With two children of her own and the responsibility of caring for her two pregnant daughters-in-law,
Lilyana possessed a keen instinct and could instantly discern that something was amiss with Ariana.
So when Ariana retreated to change into her wedding dress, Lilyana paid special attention, and there it
was! A slight bulge in her belly, visible to Lilyana’s discerning eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSighing, she recollected her earlier conversation with Theodore, realizing that he seemed oblivious to
Ariana’s pregnancy. He had not taken it into consideration when designing the wedding dress either.
The memory of their exchange resurfaced in Lilyana’s mind.
Prior to Ariana’s arrival, while tidying up the sewing room, Lilyana stumbled upon some old
photographs of her children. She eagerly shared them with Theodore, remarking, “Look how time flies;
my two Little ones are about to become fathers themselves.”
Theodore, ever the man of few words, simply smiled and nodded in Lilyana’s presence.
“And my two daughters-in-law are about to give birth too. How wonderful,” Lilyana continued, her eyes
twinkling with warmth as she regarded Theodore. “You mention your wife all the time. You must love
her very much. When do you two plan to have a child? With your good looks, the child would
undoubtedly be gorgeous.”
A soft smile played upon Theodore’s lips as he responded, his voice gentle, “Right now, I don’t want to
have children.”
“Why not? It would be such a pity not to have children.”
