Savannah blushed with sha, and her heart beat like a hummingbird. Looking around, she sighed with relief when she saw nobody in the doorway.
"Why don't you look nervous at all? How many tis have you been married? " asked Savannah, her voice muffled.
"Eight tis and I'll soon take the ninth," joked Dylan, after thinking a minute or two.
Savannah broke into a snigger, giving a soft hit on his chest jokingly. Then she put her hand in his, walking into the office with him.
When they walked out of the County Clerk office, there was a sheet of paper in each one's hand.
Was she really married? Savannah stood entranced at the door, fixing her eyes at the marriage license.
She was an unmarried girl this morning, and now she has beco his wife.
She never thought this day would co for her.
Though Devin was a bustard, Savannah was grateful he had brought Dylan to her. If she had married Devin, maybe she would never have her real happiness, right? With Dylan at her side, she would not be alone in the future.
Her dad didn't have to worry about her anymore.
"Mrs. Sterling," the man's deep voice interrupted her train of thought. She ca to her senses and looked up at the second important man in her life, "Mr. Sterling."
"Mr. Sterling?" He rubbed her hair, a little unsatisfied, "tell , who am I to you?"
Of course, Savannah knew what the man wanted to hear, but she was not used to speaking words of love. She bit her lip, flushing, and finally, she murmured, "You're my husband, my beloved."
Yes, she didn't want to let go of him, even if she was still not sure of his love for her. She would like to face any difficulties ahead of them with him.
She wanted to make him happy, to please him, to replace the girl in his life and in his heart.
Even if it was a little embarrassing, and she had to lower herself, it didn't matter.
Dylan smiled in satisfaction. He liked the way she called her husband, and he enjoyed the way she expressed her love. Her face was flushed with sha, but her eyes were unwavering.
"Now that you've married , you must be responsible for ," said Savannah sweetly as she hugged him.
Dylan sensed her excitent and joy in her embrace, and he hugged her back, pressing her to his arms.
Savannah heard his heart pounding and closed her eyes with a happy smile.

At the gate of the Sterling's house, Cooper had already been waiting for them.
Dylan unbuttoned Savannah's seatbelt and leaned over, "Ready, Mrs. Sterling?" he whispered in her ear.
Savannah imdiately understood what he ant. She was already his wife, and he would tell old Sterling about the marriage. What's more, a wedding ceremony would co soon. She had to face more than before, her heart beating violently again.
She never felt so happy about the marriage. She took it as work she had to do when she was with Devin. But now she was willing to get married because the man was the one she really loved...
"Hm." She smiled at Dylan and nodded.
Dylan quietly pulled the ring from his pocket and slid it upon her finger, then he took her hand and led her out of the car.
Savannah looked at the man in front of her, she felt that she had given the rest of her life to him since she wore the ring.
As soon as they stepped into the living room, old Sterling ca forward and looked at Savannah carefully. He was relieved to see that she looked well and rested.
Dylan felt funny at the expression of his father, "co on, dad, you looked as if I had kidnapped Savannah."
Old Sterling stared at Dylan, "why not tell in advance before you take Savannah away? Do you know how worried I was when Savannah didn't co back that night? I will have a heart attack if I haven't known your whereabouts from Garwood. You two might have gone straight to the ICU to see next ti!"
How could he answer the phone when he had been working so hard on her all that night? Savannah thought and lowered her head in sha.
"If I don't take her out, how can I bring you a daughter-in-law back?" Dylan said with a smile.
Old Sterling and Cooper looked at each other in surprise, and then old Sterling reacted, "what do you an?"
Dylan held Savannah's right hand up and showed the ring to them.
"Did you propose to Savannah?" Pleasantly surprised, old Sterling stared at the ring and asked in excitent.
Dylan said nothing but put the marriage license between his fingers and showed it to everyone.
They had even applied for the marriage license? Old Sterling's eyes widened in shock.
"Congratulations, sir!" Cooper imdiately said.
"We must get ready for a wedding imdiately!" Old Sterling clapped his hands together and said in an earnest voice, "ti's limited! The wedding dress can still perfectly cover the belly of our beautiful bride now. Cooper, make the arrangent as soon as possible. Get everything prepared in two weeks! The first Sunday in June is a good day for the wedding. We haven't held such a grand ceremony for a long ti, and Savannah's only daughter-in-law. Of course, it must be a big wedding!"
In two weeks? Savannah gasped. Even if she had never prepared a wedding, she knew that the process was very complicated. It might take half a year to wait for an available wedding venue, and it would also take a lot of ti to design the decoration of the wedding party, the food. What's more, you shall send wedding invitations to your guests at least three months in advance, otherwise, they might not be free at that ti…
However, it seed that the Sterling family had no such worries.
It was amazing that old Sterling decided to hold the wedding in two weeks. On the one hand, it showed that the Sterling family was rich and powerful; on the other hand, it was because of the eagerness of old Sterling.
The next two weeks would be a busy ti for all people of the Sterling family.
