Chapter 326
Chloe was a bit stunned, as it had been such a long time since she had seen such a scene.
"Any updates of Queena?" she asked.
If they found Queena, it would case some of the guilt she felt.
When the Davidson family did those things back then, she was too young to know. Even when she grew up, she wasn't quite clear about what happened. Since she was a child, she was taught to restore the Davidson family, to bring them back to Heloría, and to see her father take the top leadership position. All she knew was that years ago, the West family had erased the Davidson family from Heloría, and didn't allow the Davidson family to enter Heloria for years, So when she discovered who Noah was, she loved to tease him, always opposing everything he did,
"Not at the moment. I suppose this gives me the chance to spend a few days with you guys.
"I'll also take the opportunity to check out the situation in the slums."
Seeing Chloe still standing there stunned, Noah walked up and placed his hand on her shoulder. "What are you doing just standing there? Go freshen up and come to eat." He turned her around and gently pushed her toward the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Wyatt came out of his room in pajamas, rubbing his eyes and locking eyes with Noah at the door.
"Uncle Noah...oops, I mean, good morning, Daddy," said Wyatt.
"Morning, go freshen up
bathroom.
and come to eat." Noah bent down, picked him up from the floor, and carried him to the
"Morning, Mommy," said Wyatt.
The three of them stood in front of the bathroom mirror; this was a scene Chloe never dared to dream of.
It was an unprecedented warmth.
During breakfast, Chloe quickly checked her phone and found hundreds of messages in the work group chat.
She thought, 'What's going on?'
As soon as she clicked in, she saw everyone was sending messages, saying: [Congratulations to the boss on the wedding.]
[Wishing you many years of happiness and lots of kids.]
Chloe was speechless and thought, 'What's going on?'
Chloe opened her WhatsApp and saw Elia's post showing off her marriage certificate. Before she could even click on it, the phone was taken away by Noah sitting at the dining table. "Forgot the rules? No phones during meals. You know your stomach isn't great, right?" said Noah.
Chloe frowned, her deep blue eyes flickering slightly. He still remembered that her stomach wasn't good.

10:24 Fri,
"I just wanted a quick look-Seems Elia and Mr. Sinclair got their marriage certificates."
Noah sternly stopped her from seeing it, but he checked it himself and even liked it.
"I've already liked the post for you. Just focus on eating now."
Chloe was lost for words and said, "Old-fashioned."
Noah could tell just from her eyes that she was secretly calling him old-fashioned.
He turned off the phone's screen and set it aside.
"We should get our marriage certificates too."
Chloe paused mid-sip of her soup; her heart skipped a beat. She forgot to blow on the hot soup and burned her tongue, leaving it tingling.
"Be careful, Mommy." Wyatt quickly grabbed a napkin, beating Noah to it.
Chloe took the napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth.
Even if he did find Queena, his sister, there was still an insurmountable gap between them.
"Noah, you must be aware of my father's plan. The main election this November is bound to create a stir. You have your mission, and I have my position," said Chloe.
They all carried family responsibilities. The grudges from the previous generation ran too deep, making it destined for the Davidson family and the West family to be at odds forever. Noah stared at Chloe in front of him with eyes as blue as an ancient well.
The atmosphere at the dining table froze for a moment.
Wyatt paused his breakfast eating.
"So, it seems like we need to team up for many things." As Noah finished speaking, Chloe looked up at him, and their eyes
met.
On the other side, Ophelia's new post on WhatsApp got over 99 likes and congratulations just after she finished it.
On her way back, her phone buzzed with notifications.
Upon arriving at the Rosewood Manor, Lisa and Liam were standing at the door, one on each side.
The couple got out of the car and walked into the villa as a shower of red rose petals fell from upstairs,
"Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair on your wedding." Lisa beamed, unable to contain her smile, as a row of servants and bodyguards lined up behind her and chimed in unison. Saying this, Lisa shot a glare at Liam.
They were supposed to speak in sync, but he was out of step.
"Thank you, Lisa, and everyone, for the warm wishes." Ophelia held Kenneth' arm, glancing at the villa.
When they left, there weren't any of these decorations, but when they returned, the windows had been decorated with balloons, and the floor was scattered with rose petals.
Though it was a bit tacky, she liked it.
At this moment, she truly felt like she had married Kenneth.
Lisa was overjoyed; Mr. Sinclair and Ophelia were finally married, which made her happier than anyone else. Watching them, tears unknowingly welled up in her eyes.
Normally, getting married would involve both families sitting down for a celebratory meal. However, as Ophelia had no parents, Mr. Sinclair had no mother, and his father never cared for Kenneth, so he was, naturally, absent from this event. That was why she arranged staff members to decorate the Rosewood Manor while the couple was getting their marriage licenses, to at least have a semblance of a wedding celebration.
When they returned to the room, the bedsheet had been changed by Lisa to a white one.
The bed was also scattered with rose petals.
Ophelia picked up a rose petal and kissed it.
It was supposed to symbolize having a child soon. She wasn't thinking about children at the moment.
It was because Kenneth' birth control efforts were too effective; she hadn't had the opportunity.
Just then, her phone rang.
It was a call from Theo.
"Dear girl. Why didn't you tell me about getting the marriage certificates? Bring Kenneth over for dinner tonight. You've both been so busy since Christmas Day, and you haven't visited me in a while," said Theo.
Ophelia glanced at Kenneth.
She didn't exactly know what the usual process was for getting married, as they had no elders around. Theo, who had been like a grandfather to her, always took good care of her, and the Carnegie family was very attentive to her too. It was just that she had been so busy lately that she hadn't had time to visit him.
Kenneth was in an exceptionally good mood today. Everything seemed brighter and clearer.
"You are the boss," said Kenneth.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Okay. We'll head over later," Ophelia said into the phone before hanging up.
Kenneth was sitting on the couch, holding the two marriage certificates that he'd been looking through repeatedly since he
came in.
"How about we get a custom frame made to display the marriage certificates?" Ophelia suggested with a cheerful tone. Thus, we could hang it on the wall and watch it every day.
Kenneth raised his eyebrows, his expression seemed to say, "That's a great idea."
Ophelia thought, 'Is he really going to hang them up?'
After a little while, Kenneth' brows furrowed again.
No, he couldn't display them; he thought, 'He had to lock them up.'
He had heard that for a divorce, both marriage certificates were needed.
"Let me see mine," Ophelia-said, reaching out to Kenneth.

He had been holding them the whole time. Except for the moment when the staff handed it to her after the embossed seal was affixed and she managed a look of it, the documents had remained in his hands. She hadn't even gotten a good look at how the photo turned out
"What are you up to?" Kenneth asked.
Kenneth, as if protecting a treasure, pulled the marriage certificates closer to himself.
