Chapter 1743Coming of a Wedding
“You look gorgeous in it, Queenie,” Jessie praised. “Really? | love this gown, too.” Queenie nodded in approval. “Okay, I'll go with
this as my main gown, then.”
Queenie had too many choices to choose from, but in the end, she finally made her decision. Then, it was tfor Jessie to try out
her bridesmaid gown. She went with a violet dress made of fine gauze that showed her beauty while maintaining a certain air of
mystery about her. She looked great in that dress. Innocent and beautiful.
She was admiring herself in the mirror when someone showed up behind her. At first, she thought it was her hallucination, but
when she turned around, she was greeted by Julian. The guy had his hands in his pockets.
He was looking at her with his gaze filled with approval and delight. “How do | look?” Jessie spun around sheepishly. The confidence
she had earlier faltered when she stood before him. She always felt inadequate whenever she was around him. She felt insecure,

“You look gorgeous. Stunning, even.” He wasn’t stingy with his praise.
Her cheeks burned at his compliment. Then, she asked, “Have you tried your suit yet?”
“Yes, | have. It was not bad, | think.”
“A sh| didn’t get to see it.” She was slightly dejected for missing the chance to see him in his suit.
“You'll get to see it during the wedding. It’s in three days. We're not in a rush.” He smiled. “Leave something for the imagination.”
Even without seeing it, Jessie knew Julian would look good in any shirt. However, that wasn’t the only thing on her mind. She also
wondered what he looked like without any clothes on. She blushed furiously upon thinking of that.
The Silversteins and Mansons had dinner that night. Julian was there as well.
The elders returned hafter dinner while the kids went around town. Queenie, however, couldn't stay out for too long, so Nigel
took her home.
In the end, Julian and Jessie went on a little date. She showed him that photo and compared their height. “Am | that short?” She
puffed her cheeks indignantly.
“Well, | have no complaints about it.” He then pulled her into his embrace. “You're my cup of tea, after all.”
And that made her feel better.
The next morning, all the guests who had tto spare cto the island for ssightseeing as they waited for the wedding to
begin.
The Presgraves were already there. A little girl in a regal dress was running around on the grassy plains. Willow was already four,

her own. Behind her, her father and brother stood. She was giggling as she ran. Sometimes she would turn around to look at her
family. A woman in a black dress was following her closely, and she glimmered like a gemstone under the sun.
“Mommy, Mommy.” The girl turned back and trotted up to her mother when she realized Anastasia wasn’t following.
Anastasia waited for her. When Willow cnear, she hunkered down and picked the exhausted girl up. Willow might be small, but
the length of her hair had already reached her shoulders, and it was thick enough to braid.
All the guests looked at them enviously. What a happy family.
The wedding, as stated, was held three days later. Romance filled the air, heralding the coming of a grand event.
The Silversteins, who ctwo days earlier, rested for a day. Jessie and Queenie went around the island with their mother. Julian
could only make it one day before the wedding because of his work.
