Love at First Novel

Chapter 3828

Chapter 3828 Julian typically wore black clothes year-round. While he did own a few white suits, he rarely wore them. Today, however, was special. He and Kiera were getting their marriage certificate, so he chose a white suit to symbolize purity. Emotionally, Julian was pure—his feelings as pristine as snow. Kiera admired him and said, “You’re not ugly at all. You look even more handsome than usual. I rarely see you in a white suit, and now you seem like a fairytale prince—my prince.” Julian smiled warmly, “Yes, I’m your prince, only yours. And you look amazing in red. I should’ve bought a red suit to match.” He was slightly disappointed that he didn’t own a red suit. Kiera blushed a little. She wasn’t used to being called his wife yet since they hadn’t collected the certificate. But she figured she’d better get accustomed to it early. With a smile, Kiera confidently took Julian’s arm while holding the designer bag he gifted her. The bag held her documents, phone, car keys, and other essentials. After Kiera arrived in Wiltspoon, Julian’s family had immediately provided her with a car to make getting around easier. “My mother told me to dress festively,” Kiera mentioned. Julian responded, “You look great.” “Me or the dress?” Kiera teased. “You, of course! You make the dress look good,” Julian replied. Kiera chuckled, “You’re hilarious.” The soon-to-be newlyweds headed downstairs, chatting and laughing. Julian’s parents, along with his uncles, aunts, and a few of his peers, were waiting on the first floor. When Kiera saw nearly all the family elders gathered there, she quickly let go of Julian’s arm. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Julian gently pulled her hand back, whispering, “The happier we look together, the more it delights my parents.” Since meeting Kiera, Julian’s parents had been beaming constantly, their happiness almost overwhelming. “I’m a bit embarrassed,” Kiera admitted. The Bucham family elders had been nothing but kind and welcoming to her, treating her with warm smiles and gentle words. Even her peers showed her respect, acknowledging her as their sister-in- law. While Kiera had a very positive impression of Julian’s family, she still felt a little shy about displaying affection in front of so many elders. Julian reassured her, “Don’t be embarrassed. You’ve seen how Josh and Jasmine are—they show affection anytime, anywhere.” With that, Kiera let go of her reservations. She loved Julian and wanted everyone to know about their happy relationship. “Dad, Mom,” she greeted as they approached Julian’s parents. Julian’s mother smiled and said, “Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and get to the Civil Affairs Bureau. If you leave now, you’ll get there just as the staff start their shift.” Julian glanced at his watch. “I thought we’d leave around nine.” The Bucham family mansion was only a ten-minute drive from the Civil Affairs Bureau. Since it was a weekday and they’d missed the morning rush hour, the roads would be clear. “What if there’s a crowd today?” his mother reasoned. “If you wait until nine, you’ll have to queue. Go now, and you’ll be first in line, so you can finish the formalities quickly and come back for the meal. Our relatives and friends are coming over for dinner.” Tonight’s gathering wasn’t a wedding banquet, just a celebration marking the end of Julian’s bachelor days.
