654 Justice coming closer - part 6

Friday, continued …

Hearing those words, James was worried. Given what everyone had been telling him earlier in the night, this could end up being an absolute nightmare. It was obvious from observing the people he had not met before in that none of them were happy that he had married Alecia. They seemed to believe that he needed all their permission to marry Alecia. While they needed Yao Tan's approval for their marriage, he would have waited twelve months and they would not have needed anyone's approval.

As the exited the restaurant, James' fears that things could turn worse intensified, and he say both Hou Yi and Yao Tan tell their bodyguards to wait here. That was scaring James, as goodness knows what would happen. Alecia however paused and grabbed James Hand, gently pulling him along, while quietly saying "Stop worrying. It is quite safe here James, plus this the area we live for much of our early years."

James, however kept a constant look around being careful to ensure that he was safe, and more importantly Alecia was safe. Within a minute of leaving the restaurant, they turned and headed down an alleyway, twisting and turning to the point that James soon lost his bearings as to where they were, until they arrived in front of a door, and King pulled out a key opening the door, and ushering everyone in.

James was shocked at what he had walked into. It was a real private club area, somewhere to really relax. Alecia sat down quickly, and James decided that the safest place was next to his wife. There was no way, given how much Alecia was adored by everyone that in her presence anyone would hurt him.

After drinks were handed out to everyone, King turned and fired at James "Tell me why in the world should I be happy you married our princess?"

"Sir, were you not told, Alecia proposed to me …"

"Who gives a care, now answer my question" spat out King. Watching King, Yao Tan, Amanda, and Anna were wondering how quickly the façade would crumble. Over the last few months, with all her interactions with King, despite this gruff exterior when it came to her and Amanda, she knew if they were safe and happy then in the end nothing mattered. The same would go for Alecia.

"Uncle King, James is right, I proposed and blackmailed dad. He was given two choices, let us marry or we would simply wait until I turned eighteen and marry but we would not have a relationship."

Anna realised that they were going to go over the same ground as had been talked about again and again. She just decided that she would sit and watch the fun until those seven heavies were happy. There was something else that they all needed to talk about, and that would simply wait until everyone was ready.

Anna turned briefly and observed Amanda. Interesting, she had a fruit juice like her. Anna paused and thought does that mean that Amanda is also pregnant? How would the triplets take that? They likely would be eighteen years old and they would have a baby sibling. Anna decided though that was not a question that she was going to ask Amanda today.

Anna turned back, and just quietly watched the fun for twenty minutes, until James and Alecia had seemed to satisfy everyone about their marriage.

Lizard turned to Yao Tan, and then asked "What is this I hear about that b*stard Lu Jingho striking a deal? He deserves to rot in jail for what he did to the princess."

Sitting beside James, Alecia tensed up. Even now, almost twelve months after what happened, the memories at time were such that it felt like it was yesterday.

James immediately felts Alecia tensing up and he knew why. While as time passed the days were getting easier and easier for her to cope with. However, it took something simple to make her relive what he knew was the most awful event of her life. James slightly moved and pulled Alecia into his arms, and whispered "Do not worry, you will get the justice that you deserve."

"James, I cannot deal with this."

"Alecia, I will be here, I think everyone needs to have their say, and you need to say what you think. You have let everyone else make the decision for you, and in the end will that be the justice you want?"

"But I cannot deal with having to go over it."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.
