Sheffield held Miranda's arm and led her to the dining table, and replied proudly, "Thank you, Grandma. After all, I'm taking wedding photos with this beautiful woman. I must make sure that I'm in the best shape."
Miranda burst into laughter. "I'm so glad that you and Evelyn are getting married soon. It has not been an easy journey for either of you." When Miranda heard about his leaving two years ago, she had wanted to go find him in Evelyn's stead. But Evelyn didn't seem in a hurry to meet him, so the old lady had decided not to intervene.
"I've been waiting a long time for this, Grandma. We can finally be together now," Sheffield said with a content smile.
"The road to happiness is covered with setbacks." Miranda smiled at the young man.
In an elegant demeanor, Evelyn walked up to her grandmother and hugged her. "Grandma, I've missed you so much!"
Miranda patted her on the back. "I've missed you too, my dear granddaughter."
"Have a seat, Grandma." Sheffield pulled the chair out for Miranda.
The three of them sat down at the table, and chatted while they ate.
"I heard from your mother that Gwyn is doing much better now. Is that true?" Even to this day, Miranda had nightmares just thinking about what had happened to Gwyn.
Evelyn nodded with a smile. "Yes." She glanced at the man sitting opposite her and said, "Her daddy has been a great influence on her." If she had known that Sheffield's presence would help Gwyn recover so fast, she would have gone to find him long ago.
"I wish I could have been there when it happened. I couldn't fulfill my duty as a father in the past two years. It won't happen again," Sheffield said slowly, his voice laced with remorse.
"It's not your fault, my dear boy. Evelyn didn't tell you about Gwyn. So, don't beat yourself up. I just hope the three of you can live happily together from now on," Miranda said, patting Sheffield's hand.
"Rest assured, Grandma, that I will take good care of them," Sheffield swore.
"Well, I'm relieved to hear that. By the way, I'm sorry that I may have to bother you two. This is your last stop, isn't it? I was wondering if I could go back to Y City with you after you finish the photo shoot. Do you mind?" She had already brought her luggage, and didn't intend to go back to Munich. It would
dn't agree because it was almost backless. He didn't want people to see his wife's beautiful back.
But, since the bridal veil was about five meters long, it more or less covered her back. So, he grudgingly approved of it.
Sheffield had already taken care of the other details like the wedding gifts, the invitation cards, candies to go with the invitation and so on.
Within a week, everybody received the invitation card and the wedding candies.
The invitation card was decorated in a classy baby pink with the couple's wedding pictures printed on it. The guests' names were hand-written by Sheffield himself.
On the back of the card were these words—"I know you are approaching me, with a river of stars as your gift. So I walk towards you too, with the spreading shades of dusk as my gift in return."
In addition to a few old classmates, Evelyn had wanted Savannah to be her bridesmaid too. But because of her disabled legs, Savannah declined. She didn't want to cause Evelyn any trouble on her special day, but Savannah told her that she wouldn't miss her wedding for the world.
Evelyn had six bridesmaids in the end. To match her, Sheffield also invited six groomsmen.
Everything went smoothly as planned.
The most-awaited wedding day came very soon. The Huo family and Tang family were busy even before the day broke.
A wine-red Aston Martin sports car drove along the wide road, followed by two red British classic cars. Behind them were two rows of red and black Emperors. There were a total of sixty-six cars.
