With just a sentence, the video call was cut off. Eight words, simple yet cold, carried a tone of domineering command. Nicole’s hand holding the phone trembled fiercely.
It really was Jose Floyd, he has woken up...
Nicole dazedly returned to the old Seys Family ho, and Arlo Seys and Ariel Morris only drove away after watching her enter the house.
Arlo Seys remained silent throughout the journey, his expression steady. Ariel Morris stole a peek at his deanor and pointed to a dessert shop by the roadside, speaking playfully, "Arlo, I’m hungry, let’s buy so desserts."
Lost in thoughts about Nicole, Arlo Seys ca back to his senses, nodded lightly and said ’okay’, then parked the car in a parking spot by the roadside.
The two got out of the car and walked into the dessert shop.
"Sir and Miss, what flavor of desserts do you need?" The shop assistant approached with a smile.
Leaning on a crutch, Ariel Morris grabbed Arlo Seys’s hand and picked a whole bunch of cakes to take away, her face blooming like a flower.
Arlo Seys followed beside her, watching her smile like a flower, his own heavy heart lightened by three degrees. The happiest thing in life is probably when you are making a fuss and laughing, and I’m accompanying you by the side!
Ariel Morris enjoyed the desserts in front, while Arlo Seys carried a bag of cakes behind her, a light smile on his lips.
Ariel Morris looked back and smiled brilliantly at Arlo Seys, "Arlo, do you think I will eat you poor?"
Arlo Seys pursed his lips and chuckled, "Even a dozen of you wouldn’t have the ability to eat poor!"
"Wow," Ariel Morris grinned mischievously, "I found a rice jar to keep this little rice bug of mine, haha."
Arlo Seys walked forward two steps, his eyes full of tender affection, "I’ve wanted to keep you for a lifeti long ago. Ariel, I’ll be responsible for earning money to support the family, you just need to be happy and cheerful."
Ariel Morris stuffed a bite of dessert in her mouth, sweet and honeyed, tasting especially good, "I must have saved the Milky Way in my past life to et you in this one."
Arlo Seys laughed, "I think so too."
"....God Seys, where’s your face?"
"Near ink, you’re blackened. Knowing you, I don’t even know what face ans anymore."
"I won’t carry this bla!" Ariel Morris raised her eyebrows, wearing a proud little smirk.
Arlo Seys’s eyes fell on Ariel Morris’s leg, "How is it? Are you tired?"
A gleam of cunning flashed in Ariel Morris’s eyes, she nodded and said, "Tired, my legs hurt, Arlo-----"
Arlo Seys squatted down, his voice gentle, "Co on, I’ll carry you."
"Good."
How could she pass up such a benefit? With a smile in her eyes, Ariel Morris tidied up her foldable crutches and climbed onto Arlo Seys’s back, enjoying her privilege as the future Mrs. Seys.
Arlo Seys carried Ariel Morris on his back as they walked down the street, abandoning the car for a stroll.
Ariel Morris enjoyed the delicious dessert on Arlo Seys’s back, occasionally popping a bite into Arlo Seys’s mouth, their scene overlapping with their youthful days, both hearts filled with sweetness and happiness.
"In the future, when others introduce , they’ll say, this is Arlo Seys’s wife, Mrs. Seys-----just thinking about that picture, my spirits soar!" Ariel Morris fantasized, involuntarily chuckling.
Arlo Seys chuckled, "So you’re in such a hurry to marry ? Unfortunately, today is the weekend, the Civil Affairs Bureau is closed. Tomorrow, we’ll register for marriage and fulfill your wish."
A blush crept up Ariel Morris’s cheeks as she retorted, "Who... who’s in a hurry? I’m just imagining it! Arlo-----with soone as good as , you better watch out, or I’ll cheat!"
"If you wander a foot, I’ll move a yard! I have ten yards around for you to play, marrying soone else would be a big loss for you."
Ariel Morris responded with an "oh," grinning mischievously, "So you’ve wanted to keep for a long ti, huh! And for a lifeti! God Seys, you’re a dark-bellied wolf, and I’m a pure little white rabbit!"
