Weston consulted several married people, some of them business partners, about the wedding. Each of
them couldn‘t wait to impart their advice.
“Mr. Ford, women are all the same! They like to see the man‘s sincerity.”
“She‘ll say she doesn‘t need an extravagant and wasteful wedding because she cares about you, but as
the man, you shouldn‘t be stingy!”
“But if you listen to her and make an event as important as her wedding too simple... she‘ll haunt you for
decades!”
“Whenever you quarrel, your wife will nag in your ear: when I married you, I didn‘t even have a decent
wedding! How dare you argue with me now?”
“When it comes to that, you‘ll wish you never listened to what she said!”
The other married men agreed with this statement.
Thinking that there was some merit to their advice, Weston shared them with Stella.
The moment she heard it, Stella, in his arms, laughed. “I didn‘t know your business partners were so
funny.”
“I heard them mention their wives in the meeting today, so I casually asked them.”
Weston‘s gaze softened at her amused laughter. “Are you like them too?” he asked while scratching her
chin.
Stella fell into deep thought. After a bout of silence, she said, “I don‘t know what the future brings, but I
did mean what I said. I don‘t want to be extravagant and wasteful... I feel it‘ll be too much trouble.”
She frowned. “I‘ve seen lots of wedding videos – both the bride and groom were completely exhausted
from the wedding. A wedding should be a happy occasion. I don‘t want it to be complicated...”
Weston saw the seriousness in her eyes that told it wasn‘t a half –hearted request. Perhaps, these were
her real thoughts.
He let out an inaudible sigh.
“As long as you‘re happy.”
“What? You‘re not going to have a grand wedding?!”
Yvonne had a completely different idea when she heard this.” What were you thinking? A wedding is a
once–in–a–lifetime thing!”
After saying that, however, she found her statement a little wrong.
“Bah. Bah,” she cursed. “It‘s not necessarily a once–in–a–lifetime thing. I can‘t say that.”
Stella was rendered speechless and looked at Yvonne helplessly.
Yvonne continued muttering to herself. “But anyway, it‘s still an important life event. You can‘t deny that,
can you?
“It may be no big deal to you now, but what if you regret it later? When you get old and reminisce on your
youth, won‘t you regret your simple and insignificant wedding?”
“We‘ll worry about that much later,” Stella said.
“Oh, you sure are silly, aren‘t you?”
Yvonne was so annoyed that she almost wanted to pinch her ear and give her a lecture. “Weston has
done so much wrong to you. You should at least make him bleed some money for the wedding. You have
to make him suffer! Let him learn how to treasure you!”
Yvonne turned to Angelina next to her. “Don‘t you think so too?”
Her question caught Angelina off guard.
Angelina seemed confused as she gobbled down the food in front of her. She looked at Stella and then
at Yvonne, not knowing how to answer.
It was only her first meeting with Yvonne. With the filming reaching its conclusion, she was on vacation.
Having plenty of free time, she would often invite Stella out.
Yvonne also started inviting Stella out openly. This time, as the invitations coincided, Stella decided to
introduce them to each other.
Lively and sociable in nature, Yvonne‘s personality matched Angelina‘s easygoing attitude. Upon
meeting, they quickly warmed up to each other and began chatting like long–lost buddies.
Yvonne‘s thoughts shifted very quickly. She suddenly thought about something and turned to Angelina .
“By the way, do you have a boyfriend?”
Her question caught Angelina off guard again.
Angelina froze for a moment.
“No...”
