His long whip was full of little tricks.
And he purposely fell to use the visual effect to make us think the horse’s hooves had injured him.
But he was clearly unharmed.
Why should I care about him?
Moreover, I don’t want to at all.
Now, I’m wondering how to escape from Miles‘ grasp.
My waist!
After that, Frank’s shadow finally disappeared from my world.
Things returned to peace.

He stopped openly pursuing me.
At least he was willing to accept his loss,
Actually not really. He secretly followed me several times, deliberately getting injured to make me feel bad for him.
Using the same old tricks,
But I pretended not to see.
Because I had more important things waiting for me.
After visiting Grandpa Young with Miles, I officially became the Young family’s granddaughter–in–law,
I gently stroked the jade bracelet Grandpa Young had given me, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the honor,
“You’ve almost polished it smooth from rubbing it so much.”
Miles pouted playfully at me,
“You like that jade bracelet that much?”
“I’ll buy you more in the future, honey!”
I pretended to be angry:
“Who said I agreed?”
Miles tensed up, his mind going blank.
For a moment he couldn’t tell if I was serious:
“Lily…”
“I misspoke.”

I lightly smacked him, feeling a bit exasperated:
“I was just teasing you, why are you taking it so seriously?”
“Grandpa already explained to me that this is a bride’s bracelet.”
Miles couldn’t contain his emotions and slammed the dining table:
“Then you wearing it means you really agree!”
I was startled by the sudden noise and awkwardly looked around at the elders at the
table.
“Sit down!”
But Miles suddenly planted a kiss on me.
“Mwah~”
“Wifey!”

An awkward silence fell over the dining table?!
Oh my god!
Miles, I’m going to kill you!
I was too embarrassed to look at the table anymore, burying my face in Miles‘ chest like
an ostrich.
The elders immediately burst into laughter.
Mr. Young led the teasing:
“Miles, you’re so grown up now but still so impulsive.”
“You scared your daughter–in–law.”

Miles also realized what he’d done and scratched his head sheepishly.
He snuck a glance at me hiding in his arms, unable to contain his happiness.
“Wifey~”
I urgently shushed him:
“Shh! Don’t call me, I’m an ostrich!”
Mrs. Young knew I was embarrassed, so she tugged on Mr. Young’s ear and deliberately
changed the subject for me.
“You were no better than Miles back then, just an awkward boy.”
“Haha-”
Everyone started laughing at Mr. Young instead.
Later on, I received a package from Frank every day.
A handwritten letter of apology.
I tiredly tore up one after another.
Politely reciprocating.
A wedding invitation.
I didn’t expect him to come.
I just hoped he would stop pursuing me.
“Let’s go!”
Mysterious as ever, I forcefully dragged the sleepy Miles who had just woken up.
“Wifey~”

Miles‘ head was still fuzzy, but he smiled with crinkled eyes, trying to butter me up:
“Where are you taking me? You’re not making me be a model again, are you?!”
“I won’t dance, but I’m down for kissing, hehe!”
I raised an eyebrow and crossed my arms, watching him act cute:
“You want to kiss me?”
Miles‘ eyes immediately lit up.
He nodded his head vigorously.
Like an excited golden retriever~
“Dream on!”
I laughed and covered Miles‘ lips with my hand.
We stopped walking.
“Want to find a wedding partner? You in?”
Miles followed where I was pointing and looked up at the bridal shop.
He coughed heavily:
“Hmm”
“I’ll have to think carefully about that.”
I pinched Miles‘ reddening ears, using my secret weapon – a soft voice:
“Hubby~”
Miles instantly lost all will to resist and pulled me into the store:
“Let’s go! Get married!”
