Connor watched the commotion unfold around him. As someone entered the room, they kicked playfully and
exclaimed, "What's all this chaos about? You scared my wife away. I'll send you all to Africa to mine if you keep it
up." Matt strolled over with a cheeky grin, "We just wanted to show your wife she's part of the family now,
Connor. Since you're hitched, she's our gem too."
Connor feigned another kick at him. Matt quickly ducked behind Chloe, "See, Connor's picking on me."
Chloe finally understood. Birds of a feather flock together. These guys were just as good at being playful as
Connor was. Watching them mess around, Chloe felt her spirits lift. After a bit of horsing around, everyone
headed inside. The person on the sofa stood up.
"Ms. Eve, long tno see," Chloe said, taking the initiative to greet her.
Eve was Devon's sister. She had given up a chance to study abroad for Connor and moved to Riverbrook two
months back. The last tthey'd met was probably here, too. Eve looked like she was about to blow a fuse.
"Did you really get married?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConnor casually pulled out two red marriage certificates from his pocket and flashed them around. "See for
yourselves."
Matt tried to snatch one, "Wow, who'd have thought you'd be the first among us to tie the knot? Lethave a
look."
But Connor quickly tucked them back into his pocket, "Don't smudge them."
Matt huffed, "Can't even get a peek?"
Then he turned to Chloe, "Look at Connor..."
Connor playfully wrapped an arm around Matt's neck from behind, "Try whining to my wife again..."
Chloe could see that Connor was different today. He was genuinely happy. He seemed like a carefree kid, playing
around with Matt and the gang.
When Eve saw the marriage
certificate, her heart sank like a stone in a frozen lake. Her brother Devon had said Connor was married, but she
didn't believe it until she saw it herself. Now, seeing it with her own eyes, she felt her dreams shatter.
Eve just wanted to burst into tears. Connor was the dreamboat of many ladies among the Eldridge Elites. Her
eyes welled up, "So you're married. Big deal. People get divorced all the tthese days..."
Connor's face darkened instantly. He
turned, his ice stare cutting into Eve
like a knife. They had grown up together and after Connor went abroad, she even managed to attend the same
school. They were true childhood friends, even closer than Ke and Diana. Yet, she'd never seen such a cold look
in his eyes.
"Eve, say that again!"
His voice was as cold as a winter breeze. Faced with that gaze, Eve didn't dare utter another word.
Devon walked over, looking stern. "Eve, you promised you wouldn't cause trouble. If you ruin the mood today,
you're going straight home."
Eve knew Connor's temper all too well. She reluctantly sat down. Devon and Matt had lined up a bunch of
activities, and everyone was having a blast. Chloe, not wanting to rain on their parade, joined in too.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTaking advantage of the lively
atmosphere, Eve discreetly took out
her phone and snapped a few
intimate photos of Chloe and Connor. Then she posted them on her social media, captioning it, "Congrats to
Connor for getting hitched today!"
