“Looks like I have good judgment, and Shirley is a lucky girl.” Angela approved of Zacharias.
On the other hand, Shirley was a little embarrassed. The entire country had heard about the rumor between her
and Zacharias a long time ago, and today, while scrolling her phone out of boredom in the car, she found out that
the Internet already regarded her as Zacharias’ wife and even gave her the title of Mrs. Flintstone. Moreover, there
was also a video clip of her walking into an evening banquet while holding Zacharias’ arm. Even when she watched
it again, she felt that she and Zacharias looked great together.
“I was so worried last night that I could barely sleep because I thought that something bad had cropped up on the
island,” Angela said, turning to her daughter. “Your dad said that they only apprehended a few criminals. Nothing
else happened, right?”
Shirley nodded. “Yes, he’s right that nothing happened.” Nonetheless, the injury on her shoulder was still fresh.
Feeling a little guilty for lying, she shifted her shoulder to the side discreetly and tried to maintain a natural

“That’s great. It’s Christmas tomorrow. Let’s spend it happily by having a meal together and welcoming the new
year.”
Before lunch, the three men came downstairs, appearing more at ease since they had finished their discussion. At
the dining table, Zacharias and Shirley sat together, and the former offered drinks to his future parents-in-law,
showing respect to them like they were his elders.
“I think it’s better not to delay Zach and Shirley’s wedding any longer. After this, he will need her to accompany him
to all the functions he’ll be attending,” Ren said, starting the conversation. As the elder and president, it made full
sense that he took charge of this matter.
“Uncle Ren, why don’t you pick a date for them?” suggested Richard.
“Let’s hold the wedding two weeks from now. It will be a private wedding without being too lavish. I’m sorry to
Shirley about this,” Ren said.
After hearing this, Shirley immediately exclaimed, “No, that’s fine. This is exactly what I want. We should keep it as
private as possible.”
“Shirley, we shouldn’t keep it so low-profile either,” Zacharias said with a smile, worried that she would feel
neglected.
“Let’s ask Josef out for dinner tonight and set the date,” Richard suggested.
“We won’t be joining tonight. Please go ahead,” Ren said with a chuckle, as he had other matters to attend to.
“Okay, Mr. Lloyd,” Zacharias immediately agreed. “I’ll prepare the food and drinks at home tonight. Please come to
my place for dinner.”
Richard nodded. “Great. Both families will meet, then.”
After lunch, Zacharias had to leave because of work, and Shirley stayed with her mother until evening to attend the
dinner at the Flintstone Residence. In the evening, the dining table at the Flintstones was covered with food for a
banquet. Josef was excited to finally live to the day of his son’s wedding.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs they often met each other in the political scene, they got along quite well and chatted like family when they sat
together. In the end, they decided to hold a private wedding ceremony in two weeks. The invitations would be sent
out the next day, and the guests were all their internal staff.
Naturally, Richard immediately informed his two best friends, asking them to make time and bring their families to
attend his daughter’s wedding.
At night, Shirley’s phone rang. It was a call from Willow, who was far away. “Hello, Willow,” she answered, picking
up the phone.
“I would have never guessed you’d get married first. Congratulations!” Willow said, sending her blessings.
“I didn’t think it would turn out this way either! When I met you the last time, I didn’t even have a boyfriend yet!”
“Fate works in mysterious ways. It catches up to you while you are unaware,” Willow said with a sigh.
Shirley agreed with what she said. When she first met Zacharias, the last thing she imagined was becoming this
man’s wife one day. Recalling their first meeting, she would have never dared to imagine such a thing happening.
“Willow, you have to attend my wedding, okay?”
“I most certainly will!” Willow promised.
At night, Shirley swept her long hair to one side as the man gently examined her injury. “Should we postpone the
wedding?” he asked in a heartbroken voice. “Your injury has yet to heal.”
