112: Chapter 109: She and I Got Our Marriage Certificate 112: Chapter 109: She and I Got Our Marriage Certificate Emily Parker’s aunt actually wanted Emily to beco a nanny?
This was sothing only Emily could tolerate.
If it had been Carlos, he would have already slapped her across the face.
Who would let their aunt insult their niece like this?
“Blind thing, she only saw Third Master Manor?
Didn’t she see ?
I am much better than that guy Third Master Manor; the Manor family has several sons, but the Carter Family only has as a grandson.”
Carlos realized clearly that Emily was not popular within the Parker Family.
Since that was the case, he had no need to be polite with the Parker family mbers.
Carlos didn’t notice that when he bumped into sothing, a pen from his shirt pocket fell to the ground.
As Carlos walked away, Emily noticed sothing falling from him.
Emily looked down and saw that it was Carlos’s signature pen.
Her eyes dimd slightly when she saw the pen.
Without a word, she kicked the pen gently with her foot, sending it under Aunt Parker’s foot.
This aunt of hers loved to pick up things when it suited her…
“Hey, how can soone be so rude, bumping into others and not even apologizing.”
Aunt Parker was hefty and struggled to get up, yet Emily was completely indifferent and did not intend to help her.
Just as she was about to get up, she suddenly saw sothing shiny under the table.
Upon closer inspection, oh ho, it was a dazzling gold pen.
The pen seed to be inlaid with several diamonds.
Aunt Parker’s eyes lit up instantly, she then looked at Carlos who had already walked away.
No one nearby was paying attention to her, so she quickly stuffed the gold pen into her pocket.
Faye Manor and Carlos ca back together.
Faye Manor ordered two bottles of ’82 wine, his face brimming with enthusiasm, and poured wine for everyone present.
When it was Emily’s turn, just as he was about to pour her wine, Carlos pushed his bottle away.
“She/ I don’t drink alcohol.”
Both said in unison.
Everyone’s gaze suddenly fell on Carlos and Emily.
Adam Willow looked at Carlos, then at Emily, and frowned.
Last ti at the hospital, he felt Carlos’s attitude toward Emily was a bit unusual.
Could it be because Emily and he were too closely related?
But Little Sophie had said, Carlos wasn’t interested in Emily.
However, it seed that Emily and Carlos’s secretary were on intimate terms, possibly dating…
Faye Manor was puzzled, looking at Emily and then at Carlos.
Even a slowpoke like him felt there seed to be so ambiguity between Carlos and Emily.
“I’ll just have water.”
“I don’t drink either; the driver had to leave for sothing, and I need to drive later.”
Carlos had soone bring two glasses of water.
Faye Manor could only fill the glasses for the others.
Sophie Parker stood up with a smile; she was the protagonist today and couldn’t let Emily steal the spotlight.
“I’ll toast everyone first.
Just so happens, I have so good news to announce today.”
Saying so, Sophie Parker gently tugged at Adam Willow next to her.
Adam Willow hesitated for a mont but still stood up.
“Little Sophie and I are planning to get engaged.”
Saying this, he unavoidably glanced at Emily.
“That’s really congratulations.”
Faye Manor stood up smiling, and the Parker family mbers all stood up.
“Sister, you aren’t still mad at , are you?
I have already apologized to you.
Don’t you want to bless and Brother Adam?”
Sophie Parker looked pitiful.
Emily blandly said one word,
“Congratulations.”
Adam Willow’s hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, spilling a bit of wine.
Carlos did not stand up but just raised his water glass.
In his heart, he cursed, “Bloody adulterers.”
At the banquet, the Parker family mbers were all in high spirits, discussing Sophie Parker and Adam Willow’s wedding date, followed by a conversation between Father Parker and Faye Manor about the stock market.
“Uncle Parker, you trade stocks too?”
“I don’t trade stocks, but my youngest daughter and wife are into it.”
Father Parker initially disapproved of Sophie Parker getting into stock trading, but seeing his daughter and wife make a decent return, he stopped interfering.
“Third Master Manor, which stocks did you buy?”
Sophie Parker asked with curiosity.
“I’ll let you in on so insider information secretly, invest in Carter Automotive, its shares are going to surge soon.”
Faye Manor boasted proudly, confident that Carter Automotive’s stock price would at least double with the launch of Master Carter’s new car.
Sophie Parker couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.
Faye Manor must have heard Carlos bragging.
That playboy Carlos, every business he took over, nine out of ten would go bankrupt.
As everyone was chatting and laughing, Carlos and Emily Parker didn’t talk much.
Emily Parker ate less than usual, and Carlos rembered she used to eat quite a bit at ho.
After becoming pregnant, Emily Parker didn’t experience severe morning sickness, feeling unwell only once during that fire at the hospital.
After dinner, when Faye Manor went to settle the bill,
he asked a waiter who replied,
“Young Master Manor, President Carter has already taken care of it.”
Faye Manor didn’t insist and said to Carlos, “I’ll treat you next ti.”
Father Parker exchanged pleasantries with Faye Manor for a while.
Just as Emily Parker was about to leave, she saw Faye Manor quickly catching up.
“Emily Parker, let give you a ride.”
Emily Parker did not refuse, and they all went down in the elevator together.
Faye Manor was about to go get his car, but to his surprise, Carlos had already had the car brought to the entrance,
Emily Parker hesitated for a mont but still got in the car.
Faye Manor got anxious,
“What do you an by this, Master Carter?”
“My woman doesn’t need you to give her a ride.”
Carlos leaned against the car door, watching Faye Manor’s smile freeze on his face.
“What do you an by that?”
Faye Manor thought it over, sensing sothing off about Carlos during dinner.
“Carlos, you’re not being fair, are you?
You clearly knew I had my eyes on her first, you even said in the chat group that she wasn’t that great…”
Before Faye Manor could finish, Carlos grabbed him by the collar and pulled him aside.
Faye Manor, influenced by the alcohol, glared at Carlos.
Though Faye Manor was a playboy himself, he had genuinely fallen for Emily Parker at first sight.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have skipped even his own uncle’s birthday.
“Your feelings are moot.
We’re married.
She’s the nurse I ntioned to you guys that I t for a blind date.”
Boom—
Faye Manor looked as if he had been struck by lightning, it took him a while to co to his senses.
Emily Parker?
Carlos?
They’re married?
They’re a legally wed couple!
Faye Manor felt like his mind was in turmoil.
After all the fuss, he had fallen for his good buddy’s wife at first sight, and like a clown, he brought flowers to his good buddy’s wife.
He even told his good buddy over the phone that he was going to pursue his buddy’s wife.
“No, no, I didn’t do it on purpose, I truly didn’t know you got married, you never ntioned it.”
Faye Manor sobered up from the shock.
“There’s a reason for all this, don’t say you didn’t know.
Aside from my family, no one else is aware.
Not even Emily Parker’s family.
Her biological mother passed away early, and her relationship with the Parker family isn’t harmonious…”
“Master Carter, I really didn’t know she was your wife.
You moved too fast though.”
Faye Manor was both aggrieved and embarrassed.
“We’re not planning to announce our marriage publicly for the ti being
You have to keep this a secret for .”
“You’re not doing a secret marriage now, are you?
That’s not fair to Emily Parker.”
Faye Manor thought for a mont.
“I can keep it a secret, but I want a hush fee.
Didn’t I take a liking to that custom pen of yours last ti?”
