Chapter 72 - 72 - We're Getting Married?

I couldn't take it anymore and I just burst out crying. He got worried and pulled me in the arms, embracing me. Then we heard Caden crying, which shocked everyone.

"Grandpa, Uncle Kyle, please allow my parents to get married. I want mommy and daddy to be together. It was my dream!" He sobbed.

Jayden got worried so he released me and rushed into Caden. He carried him and came back closer to me so he could console us both.

Kyle took a deep breath, stared into us and smiled.

"You passed." He blurted.

Jayden's face lit up when he turned to look at me. I thought we would have to leave without getting their permission.

"Hey don't cry anymore. We're getting married! We're getting married!" He shouted, grabbing me on the waist and lifted me in the air while Caden was in his other arm.

Caden was giggling and I was still in a daze.

"We're getting married?" I asked to make sure I heard it right. I looked at Kyle and Grandpa and they were smiling, Emily was teary eyed.

"Thank you! Grandpa, Big brother!" I shouted.

I wrapped my arms around Jayden's neck and started kissing him, then Caden. Our family will finally be complete. I can't explain the happiness I'm feeling inside my heart. At last, I will be Jayden's wife.

He put me and Caden down to walk towards grandpa. I was happy to see him hug grandpa and I know he's crying because his body was shaking.

Grandpa patted him on the back and I could also see him wiping some tears in his eyes. Emily stood up to greet me, giving me a hug.

"Congratulations!" She said.

"Thank you! How about you and Kyle?" I asked.

"You know, we didn't tell everyone but we got married a year ago here in Flousia. It's just a small celebration and it was rushed. It was complicated back then. We could talk about it some other time. So don't worry about us. Your brother just wanted to have a grand celebration but we postponed it." She explained. 

I was surprised but I understood why they postponed it. When I came home, she told me they couldn't continue with the wedding because I went missing. I think that was what she meant. Kyle wanted the whole world to know they are married but they want me to be part of it.

After some emotional but joyful moments, we took our seat to eat breakfast.

"When do you want to get married?" Kyle asked.

"Next week." Jayden blurted.

"That soon?" I asked, surprised.

"Yes. It has been delayed for more than three years, are you planning to make me wait longer than that?" He answered, looking at me.

"No. I thought it would be at least next month. But next week is fine." I said, smiling sweetly at him.

"You will get married here." Grandpa said.

I was expecting that he would tell us to get married here but I'm not sure if Jayden would agree to it.

"Yes grandpa. I already sent a message to Luke and the others. They would be here in two days." Jayden revealed.

"Really?" I know I looked like an idiot with a wide smile on my face.

Jayden chuckled and nodded to confirm.

"Daddy, Lucas and Alira will come too?" Caden asked.

His face lit up and I could see the excitement on his face when his father answered him with a nod.

"We could go and see a couturier when the girls arrive. We'll help you plan the wedding." Emily commented calmly.

For some reason, her voice sounded more like a queen now. When we were in high school, she's like the classy brat, fashionista girl but she changed after meeting Kyle.

"Grandpa, after the wedding, we would like you to know that Peggy and I decided to look for his father. We know it's dangerous but we really want to find out the truth." Jayden announced.

Grandpa exchanged glances with Kyle and sighed deeply.

"We knew that time would come that you would look for him. We already expected that but be careful and if you need help or whatever you find out, be sure to tell us." Grandpa said.

"We promise." We answered in unison.

"Do you think he is still here in Flousia?" Kyle asked.

"We will continue to talk to mom's driver back then. We weren't able to do that when we came here the first time. I think he knows something. I would also try to talk to my foster dad. He was the one who gave me the article after all." I answered.

"I asked Caleb to see if he could find something about him so I think we could get some information by tomorrow. When Peggy left three years ago, I tried to look for him but it seems he's good at hiding." Jayden uttered.

"Do you think he's dead?" I suddenly asked.

Jayden turned his gaze to me, held my hand and shook his head.

"He's not. The Forelli Clan is the current head of the Underground and your father is the boss of the organization. If he's dead, the clans will be at war until they get a new boss." He explained.

I nodded and didn't say a word. I have decided to look for him a long time ago but because of his involvement with Jayden's mother, I have to let it go. Now that Jayden wanted to look for him, I am somewhat excited and agitated at the same time.

If he really is responsible for the death of Jayden's mom, I'm not sure if I could forgive him. I don't even know if he knew I existed. No one knew on my mother's side that I was born into this world anyway so I'm expecting he didn't. 

After breakfast, we went back to our room. And as soon as the door closed, Jayden pulled me and slammed me gently to the door.
