The moment he saw the name on the screen, all his questions vanished, replaced by a faint smile that crept across his lips.
But instead of replying to the message, Emmett quickly powered off his phone and, like a clingy puppy, leaned in closer to Athena, completely abandoning his earlier concerns.
"Athena, I’ve already sent out all the wedding invitations. Soon, we’ll be married!"
"Let’s have a son first, okay? We’ll raise him right, and when he’s grown, I’ll retire early and spend every day with you."
Emmett spoke with such enthusiasm, oblivious to Athena’s pale face, as if everything were perfectly fine.
Meanwhile, the television broadcasted Aliana Forbes’s first interview since returning to the country.
Just half a month ago, Aliana had walked away from her thriving career in the Canadian film industry; her decision was firm and resolute as she chose to return home. Upon her arrival, she wasted no time in announcing her plans to marry.
In the interview, Aliana spoke with a sweetness that could melt hearts as she reminisced about her fiancé.
