Chapter 19
Jason was still busy with the project.
After learning I was getting married, his mood seemed a bit low.
Recently, he couldn't help complaining to me about how difficult that client was to please.
The design plans were changed again and again, and in the end, they said the first version was better.
Yesterday they even notified him to add a children's playroom.
If it weren't for the money, he would have quit long ago.
I held back my laughter and encouraged him to keep going.
...
On the weekend, I made plans to go shopping with Emma.
She was showing a bit now, and I was going to accompany her to look at some baby items.
As I was about to leave, Lucas ran out from the study.
"Honey, where are you going?"
"I told you, I'm going shopping with Emma."
"Where are you going? When will you be back?"
He clung to me asking all sorts of questions.
Every time I went out he would do this, confirming the time and place with me.
I answered everything, and he kissed the corner of my mouth.
"Make sure you come back, okay? Call me if anything happens."
"Okay."
"Bye honey."
He watched me enter the elevator from the doorway, obedient as a puppy.
If his employees saw this, they'd probably be shocked.
When I arrived at the mall, Emma was already there.
As we shopped, she complained about how old-fashioned her man's proposal was.
But looking at the small diamond ring in her hand, she was clearly smiling sweetly.
Passing by a men's clothing store, I wanted to go in and buy Lucas a tie.
Emma rested her chin on her hand, looking at me with a smirk.
"It's obvious you really like Lucas.
"I remember we went to the same high school. You didn't happen to like him way back then, did you?"
"Uh..." I guiltily averted my eyes, changing the subject, "Which of these two do you think looks better?"
She pursed her lips, seeming to have figured something out.
"The left one looks good! Aria, let me tell you, you can't spoil men.
"You have to keep them on their toes, otherwise they'll lose interest once they get what they want."
As she spoke, her phone lit up.
It seemed to be her bodyguard calling.
She decisively hung up, raising an eyebrow at me smugly.
She was certain he would call again.
I smiled. Every couple has their own way of getting along.
Lucas always complains that I don't like him enough.
Even though we're tricking Vivian, Lucas has never rushed me to get pregnant or make our act real.
He's always respected my wishes.
...
When I got home, Lucas came over as soon as he heard the sound.
Seeing that I had bought him a gift, he was immediately overjoyed.
He preciously looked at himself in the mirror from all angles and even posted on social media.
Caption: My wife bought it for me.
Attached photo of the tie, angle carefully selected.
Emma: Look at how easily pleased you are.
Vivian: ...
