CHAPTER 468
Xanthea returned home, diving stmight into wedding prep with her family trying on wedding dresses, making reservations, and preparing invitations. Initially, she was buzzing with excitement, but soon, the thrill gave way to boredom, and she found herself missing Orion.
Unfortunately, her phone was under the strict control of Samuel, who didn’t let her sneak even a peek.
“Samuel, did anyone call me today?”
“Yeah.”
“Really?!” Her eyes sparkled with excitement
“But it wasn’t Orion.”
Samuel rolled his eyes for the umpteenth time, gently flicking her suddenly disappointed face, “Get back to getting those invitations done, you lovesick puppy. It’s only been a few days apart, and you’re already this restless. You didn’t miss Samuel this much when you were filming, did you?”
Hmph! When she was filming, he called her like eight times a day, practically annoying her to death, and she still missed him!
“He really didn’t call? You swear?
Samuel casually raised two fingers, “I swear on my dashing, handsome face. Happy now?”
Xanthea was shocked. Samuel always prided himself on his looks, and now he was swearing on them? It must be true!
Onion hadn’t called her. That SlyFox, after gratifying his own desire, he just forgot her, didn’t miss her at all
Susanna chuckled as she saw Xanthea’s face fall, gently patting her head. “Xan, we agreed no seeing each other for a week, respecting. tradition. It’s another way Orion is showing his love for you.”
Xanthea pouted, not convinced, “He’s not the superstitious type.”
Samuel couldn’t help but snicker. Although Orion hadn’t called, he had sent countless cheesy texts. But, after Samuel replied with “This is Samuel, Orion stopped texting, much to Samuel’s delight.
“It’s precisely because he’s not superstitious, that he’s doing this for you, which makes it all the more special”
Xanthea’s mood lifted as she heard her mom say that. She was right!
Holding an invitation adomed with iris flowers and childhood photos, she smiled with satisfaction, “This invitation looks so pretty”
“Onion had it delivered early this moming. He must have designed it himself.”
Even the details on the invitation were meticulously designed. It seemed Orion was really busy with the wedding. Maybe she was being
too laid back?
Perhaps she could prepare a surprise for him? An idea quickly sparked in her mind.
Try on!”
“Mom, Dad, I need to go to the back hill for a bit. You guys carry
“What for? I’m coming tool Samuel immediately got up.
Xanthea said, “Samuel, are you my shadow or something?”
Christopher laughed, “Xan, let Samuel tag along. He only gets to follow you around for a few more days. Cherish it!” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Tm getting married, not running away from home.”
“Exactly” Samuel echoed, “Even after you’re married, I can still look after you. I’ve checked out that Xanthea Haven Estate, and it’s pretty nice. I like it. I’ll be dropping by often, staying over long–term works for me too.”
Xanthea was caught off guard, “What?!”
“What do you mean, what? Not welcoming me, after all these years of looking after you?” Samuel teased, pinching her cheek, “Off to the back hill, then. What’s this new mischief you’re plotting? Spill it to me.”
“I don’t wanna tell you.”
Xanthen, dragged away by Samuel, made a face like a little beast, wishing she could bite him.
“Samuel, you’re in your twenties. Can’t you act a bit less childish, be more mature like Ethan?”
“Ethan’s mature?” Samuel arched on eyebrow, “In what way?”
us you!
“When he heard I was getting married, he was so calm, not throwing a fit like
“Hal” That was one thing Samuel couldn’t stand. “His calmness comes with reasons.”
