Chapter 3243 Her Unshakable Place In His Heart
Nina nodded. She said, "Yes, I need to wear it, but it's just so heavy. That's why I was thinking of getting shigh -quality fakes. It's lighter, and most people wouldn't be able to tell."
Luca let out a chuckle.
*I get it now. You and Percy are on the steam, both thinking I should wear the real stuff, huh?"
*For the sake of Mr. Mallory's reputation and for your own sake, just bear with it. What kind of CEO's wife wears fakes at her wedding? Even if no one says anything at the event, someone will notice.
'Think about it. Mr. Mallory's guests and the reporters surely know a thing or two about jewelry. They'll definitely catch on if you wear fakes," Luca said.
The power of the press was limitless.
If they found out Nina was wearing fake jewelry, it would be all over the news.
Nina nodded. "He said the sthing. That's why I gave in. But I tried on the whole set, and it felt like a ton of bricks around my neck."
Then, she continued with a sigh, "And I have to wear it all day! Now I understand why so many brides say their wedding day is the most exhausting. Just wearing all that jewelry is tiring enough!"
Luca agreed.
When she married Luke, he had prepared a lot of jewelry for her too, and it was all heavy.
After the wedding, it took her two days to recover from the strain on her neck.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, it was all a sign of Luke's love and the high regard he held for her, showing everyone her unshakable place in his heart.
*Just hang in there. Isn't marrying him your dream?* Luca comforted her gently.
Brides-to-be always had all kinds of anxieties, and as a friend, she could only offer scomfort.
Nina let out a sigh. "At first, I thought we didn't need a big, fancy wedding. Just a simple ceremony with close friends would've been fine, but he insisted. He wanted everyone to know I deserve the best.
"So here we are. The wedding is perfect, but I'm worn out."
*Complain all you want, but there are so many people who would kill for a wedding like yours and to marry Mr. Mallory. If they heard you, they'd be green with envy," teased Luca.
Nina stuck her tongue out playfully.
Aunt Neile walked over with srefreshments, placing them on the table. When she heard what Luca said, she chimed in, "She's right, Mrs. Mallory. So many people dream of a wedding like yours. You don't realize how lucky you are."
"Aunt Neile's right!" added Luca. Update first at NôvelDráma. Org.
Nina's face turned red at their words. "I know I'm lucky, but I feel like happiness is something you feel inside, not something you show off."
"He's doing all this to protect you, to silence the critics." Luca picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Nina. "Don't overthink it. The jewelry might be heavy, but it's just for one day."
Since Nina had cut ties with her family, there would not be any complicated ceremonies the next day.
Nina shook her head.
"What's wrong?" asked Luca.
*Even though I just have to wear the jewelry for just one day, the ceremony lasts for two. Percy said that since I've cut ties with my family, we'll visit the Crawford family instead. He's already discussed it with Old Master Crawford, who agreed and even welcomed the idea," Nina said.
Luca was surprised but thought it was a good arrangement. "That's great!"
*I didn't expect Old Master Crawford to agree, so when Percy brought it up, I was pretty nervous. But he agreed immediately and even said he doesn't have a granddaughter, only a god-granddaughter, so he'd be happy forto visit the day after the wedding," shared Nina. She was still a bit surprised by it all.
Luca smiled. "Old Master Crawford loves having people around, and since he doesn't have to host a formal event, he's even happier. Plus, do you think he takes on god-granddaughters easily? You're the first!"
*I know he agreed because of Mr. Crawford and Percy, but I'm still surprised, replied Nina as her phone beeped
She took her phone out to check and said to Luca happily, "Percy says we're having dinner here tonight, so I should cover."
*Aunt Neile, do we have enough ingredients? If not, I'll order some," said Luca.
If not specifically instructed otherwise, Aunt Neile would only buy enough groceries for one day.
Even though they had a fridge, Luca felt that keeping food in it for longer made it less fresh and affected the taste. If they had last-minute guests, she would order groceries through an app.
Aunt Neile shook her head. "We don't have enough."
*I'll order sgroceries, then," replied Luca as she picked up her phone. At the stime, she also received a message from Luke, informing her that Percy and Nina would join them for dinner tonight.
After Luca replied to him that she had been informed, she placed the grocery order.
*Sorry for troubling you." Nina felt like they were causing a lot of trouble.
"It's no trouble at all. The groceries will be delivered to the gate, so it's easy to pick them up," replied Luca.
Aunt Neile nodded. "Yes, with modern technology, we don't need to run to the market anymore."
*Thank you," said Nina, feeling a bit guilty but knowing she had no other choice. Since Percy suggested dinner at Luke's place, it was likely they needed to discuss something, probably about Karen and Pierre. Therefore, Luca could not refuse and say it was an inconvenience.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKaren and Pierre had been causing a lot of trouble.
Night fell.
After dinner, Luke and Percy went upstairs to discuss business.
Nina offered to watch the kids and settled in to watch cartoons with them.
With her help, Luca could focus on her own tasks.
As an episode of the cartoon show ended and the commercials began, Tommy's big eyes were fixed on Nina.
*Ms. Nina,* Tommy called in his sweet voice.
Nina felt her heart melt. "Yes, sweetheart?"
*Are you getting married soon?" asked Tommy.
"Yes, very soon. Why do you ask?" Nina responded.
"Will you still visit us often after you marry Mr. Percy?" asked Tommy.
*Marrying Percy won't change my life or how I act," answered Nina, puzzled by the child's sudden question. "Why
do you ask?"
"I'm afraid you won't cvisit us anymore after you get married," replied Tommy.
Nina smiled and patted his head. "You're all such adorable kids. I'll always cto visit you, married or not. That won't change."
Tommy smiled and nodded.
Nina still found the question a bit odd but was not sure how to ask about it when Lanie spoke up.
"When you cover, Ms. Luca gets so happy," said Lanie.
Nina blinked and looked at Lanie, then realized what they were talking about after a few seconds.
