Chapter 452 - 452 Sweeter And Sweeter
452 Sweeter And Sweeter
Selma Payne’s POV:
Rationally, I knew there was a massive problem with my current state of mind. My self-denial and self-loathing state were wrong. However, if psychological problems could be solved by self-adjustment, there would be no such thing as a psychiatrist.
So, under my father’s worried gaze and my mother’s hot tears, I finally chose to listen to their arrangement, take a break, and receive psychological intervention treatment.
By the way, I finally knew what the surprise Rhode mentioned was.
I had to admit that I was dumbfounded when I heard Emma say that she was engaged to Rhode.
What followed was a piercing scream.
Dorothy and I hugged Emma excitedly, attracting the other people’s attention in the garden.
“Oh my god, I didn’t expect... Congratulations!” Moon Goddess! Damn it, Rhode! How dare he joke about something so important!
Emma immediately started to defend her fiancé. “In fact, you can’t blame Rhode for hiding this from you, my dear. You know, my parents and my family have some... In short, although I didn’t get my parents’ approval, what era are we in now? He had long passed the time when he needed his parents ‘orders. The engagement is our choice, and we don’t need anyone to interfere.
“However, the price of doing so is that I have completely broken up with my family. Actually, I feel as if a heavy boulder has been lifted off of my shoulders. Rhode didn’t want me to be laughed at by my old acquaintances, so he didn’t tell anyone about our marriage except my family and friends.
“You and Dorothy were still on a diplomatic mission to the Elf Forest. We all felt that it was better not to trouble you with such a small matter, so we kept it from you for the time being.”
“How can this be a small matter!” I shrieked in a low voice, “Engagement, marriage, these things will last a lifetime! My god, compared to your marriage with Rhode, I don’t care about those pointy-eared family affairs!”
When I was with the girls, I always had the illusion that I was still a college student with nothing to do. I could temporarily let go of all my worries.
Before we knew it, we were chatting until lunch. When Bertha came to ask, the girls and I were discussing whether to nail pearls or lace on the wedding dress, so we decided to have lunch in the garden.
When we were having lunch, the wolf cub was out for a walk under the sun. When we saw the little thing in Kara’s arms, we suddenly lost interest in the food and started to play with the child.
“Time really flies,” Dorothy suddenly exclaimed. “I feel like we just helped Avril deal with her heartbreak yesterday, and now that I look back, even your child has grown so big.”
“Time flies. Unknowingly, our teenage years have come to an end. I couldn’t help but sigh at the mention of the past. When we complain about the professor’s inflexibility in public classes, how could we have thought about what we would experience in the future? Even at this moment, a few years later, when we think about it after experiencing more, we’ll feel that it’s a rare free time.”
However, speaking of Avril, I thought about how I hadn’t contacted her in a long time.
Emma, who had been in the Lycan pack, got along well with Avril. She said that she had officially become a soldier. Due to her previous service experience with the Imperial City’s guards, she did not enter the recruit camp but became an assistant in the medic training base.
Coincidentally, her direct superior was Kerner. In case anyone forgot, he was a medical member of the advance party of the Rocky Mountains.
It has always been Avril’s dream to become a glorious warrior. I was truly happy that she had taken the first step to realizing her dream.
“However,” Emma changed the topic. “Occasionally, Avril is troubled by her current life. As you know, the rules in military camps are stringent. The medic training camp is responsible for training recruits and advanced studies, so it’s even stricter. Avril only has one and a half days of leave every half a month, so she is away from Perrin more than she is with him.”
It was the time for a young married couple to be sweet. I completely understood Avril’s distress.
But we had to follow the rules of the military, so there was a period when Avril was in a dilemma. She even seriously considered applying for a transfer to another idle position.
“Why, though?” Dorothy exclaimed. “She can’t just give up her future for a moment of convenience!”
Emma shrugged. “That’s what I said to her. However, we don’t have to worry about Avril’s career. She gritted her teeth and got through the most difficult time. Perrin also fully supported her decision. In this day and age, although ‘equality’ has become a cliché. Isn’t it common to ask a wife to give in to her husband without any bottom line?
“I have to admit that the happy life of Avril and Perrin has given me confidence in marriage. Otherwise, based on the influence of those seemingly harmonious but divided noble marriages I’ve seen, I shouldn’t be considering the date of my marriage with Rhode but when I should become a nun.”
