Chapter 273 You Look Beautiful Today
Elijah walked towards her.
Freya’s expression became even stiffer. Her grip on her skirt tightened even more. Even though he was someone so familiar, at this moment, she was too nervous to speak. Even though she missed him so much, when he approached, she wanted to step back.
“Be careful, your dress will wrinkle if you keep gripping it. It won’t look good if it’s wrinkled.” Elijah walked up to her and gently pried open her hand holding onto her skirt. Her hand was cold, and he softly asked, “Are you cold?”
Freya nodded in a panic, then shook her head. Elijah smiled, “You know me, why are you still nervous when you see me? Do you think I’ll eat you or something?”
Freya lowered her head, “No, I was just surprised that you came back suddenly.”
Elijah lifted her chin, his lips curved in a slight smile, “It’s rare to see you dress up so carefully. If I didn’t come back, wouldn’t I miss seeing it?”
He was so gentle. But Freya always felt that there was something between them.
“Let’s go inside.” Elijah took her hand and wrapped it around his arm.
Freya held onto him, trying to adjust her emotions and make her voice sound normal, “Is your work finished?”
He said, “Not entirely.”
Freya felt disappointed in her heart, wondering whether he was intentionally avoiding her. They had been apart for several days, and he was still busy.
“So, are you going back?” she asked softly, trying to keep her voice calm.
Elijah fell silent for a moment, “If you don’t want me to go, I won’t go.”
Freya bit her lip. She didn’t want him to go, but that was his job. Just like she had a job too, sometimes she had to be busy. She wanted to hold on, to make him stay by her side, but with the distance in their hearts, even if he was by her side, they couldn’t return to how it used to be.
Perhaps, they both needed time. No, to be precise, Elijah needed time.
“I understand your work, go and do your thing, I support you.” She flashed a bright smile, burying all her heartache and reluctance deep inside.
Elijah gently lowered his gaze, looking at her for a few seconds. “Not going to hold me back?”
She jokingly replied, “You need to earn money to support the family, I can’t stop you, otherwise we’ll have no money to spend.”
A faint smile escaped Elijah’s throat. “Money dazzles you?”
Freya laughed. With her eyebrows curved and her eyes shining like stars, bright and crystal clear, she looked especially beautiful. Her makeup today was done perfectly, enhancing her pure and innocent look with a touch of enchanting charm. Elijah reached out and brushed aside a strand of hair that fell near her ear, whispering, “You look beautiful today.”
Freya smiled sincerely from the heart. Perhaps every woman would feel uncontrollably happy when praised by their man.
The wedding venue was lively and grand. The two families were both prestigious households in Urbora City, and now they were joining forces. The guests attending the wedding were also prominent figures in this circle, carrying their own status and reputation.
There was a registration desk at the entrance. Four staff members stood there, dressed uniformly, respectfully welcoming each guest. Considering Elijah’s relationship with Orion, chipping in was a must. And it would be a large amount. Freya had also prepared some, but since Elijah had chipped in, she didn’t take them out. It wasn’t because she was stingy. She and Elijah were one, sharing everything.
The wedding took place in the central building of Urbora City, the iconic architecture of the city. The venue was decorated dreamily and romantically, yet it didn’t lose its grandeur. From the wedding, it was evident that both families attached great importance to this event. Elijah led Freya to find a secluded spot to sit.
Suddenly, Freya’s phone rang. She took it out from her bag, and it was a message from Zane asking, “Has the wedding started?”
Freya thought about him bringing Luna along and felt a bit worried. She replied, “Has Luna arrived?”
The response came, “Yes.”
Freya took a deep breath and replied, “It hasn’t started yet.”
“Okay, I’ll bring Luna in when the wedding begins.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
“You didn’t receive an invitation, how will you get in?”
“We’ve already sneaked in.”
Freya instinctively looked around to look for them.
