Chapter 9
Mom came over with breakfast and saw me looking down at my phone, and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Is there
something going on?”
I shook my head and didn’t reply to Miah’s message.
I didn’t believe a word she said, and I didn’t want to have any involvement with the past anymore.
After the wedding was over, let’s go change our phone numbers.
Anyway, I didn’t have many friends, so changing my number wouldn’t make much difference, but it would save me a lot of
trouble.
I had just taken a bite of breakfast when the doorbell rang at home.
Mom muttered as she went to open the door, “Who is it so early in the morning? Didn’t Leon just send a message saying he hasn’t left yet?”
Soon, she came in holding a cup of milk tea.
“Who ordered takeout?”
She carefully glanced at the name on the note.
“Princess Celia… Oh, Celia, the milk tea that you ordered has arrived. Mom will put it next to you, okay? You should still
drink less of this kind of thing. If you want to drink it, let Auntie make it fresh for you.”
Mom placed the milk tea in front of me and then turned around and left the room.
My heart was beating faster and faster, and my nails were deeply embedded in the palm of my hand.
I didn’t order takeout at all today, and I never write my name on my order.
Princess Celia was the name Lucas used to order takeout for me to cheer me up.
But until now, it has been a long time since I last used it.
Did he know that I came home?
But how did he know the address of my house?
I dared not think too much, I took the milk teacup in my hand and glanced at it, but it only strengthened this idea.
Even though the taste is the same as what I used to love drinking.
Less ice, no sugar,
I took a sip by inserting a straw, and the sweet aroma of milk spread in my mouth.
Tears couldn’t help but fill up the eyes.
The makeup artist was startled and quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe my tears.
“Miss Zhou, please don’t cry. The foundation that you painstakingly applied will smudge.”
Mom rushed over when she heard the sound and saw the situation, comforting me in a flustered manner, “Why is Celia

crying? Is it because you don’t want to get married? If you don’t want to, then forget it, Mom won’t force you. It’s just that your dad thinks Leon is a good person and that’s why he arranged this match for you. Our family’s company is doing fine. now, and you don’t need to have a marriage alliance. If you don’t want to get married, then don’t, my dear, don’t cry…”
I didn’t want to worry about my family, so I forced myself to suppress my emotions.
As my chest was still convulsing, the makeup artist began applying makeup.
“Mom, don’t worry, I just can’t bear to be away from you and dad, I’m fine.”
Mom saw that I was fine and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“I was so scared, but don’t worry, Mom has already talked to the Holt family. After the wedding, you should go back home
first and gradually build a relationship. Once the relationship is stable, then you can live together.”
She was not confident in me being alone to do makeup, so she stayed by my side.
Until the makeup was finished.
Until Leon came to pick me up for the wedding.
This was the first time I saw him, yet there was a strange sense of familiarity.
The whole person was extremely gentlemanly, completely different from the impression I had of a spoiled rich person.
Sure enough, my dad had a much better vision than me.
We had no communication throughout the entire process.
We arrived at the hotel.
After he got out of the car, he picked me up in front of everyone.
I was so scared that I reached out and tightly wrapped my arms around his neck.
The slight smile at the corner of the man’s lips fell into my eyes, and my heartbeat couldn’t help but quicken a bit.
