Chapter 247 – Side Story Last Part – Kyle And Emily
When we returned to the palace, we were inford that Jayden had arrived. We expected that he would follow Peggy and Caden since he said he would give us the proof that he didn't sleep with her secretary.
Kyle wanted to talk to him, but I insisted not to disturb Jayden and her sister. I asked him to let them speak and fix their relationship. He listened after so serious discussion.
At the breakfast table, I noticed the servants were preparing another set of plates. I know it was for Jayden.
Kyle and grandpa were talking about sothing when Jayden, Peggy, and Caden ca in, and we were not surprised since we knew it last night and grandpa seed to know that Jayden was already here.
Everyone in town was talking about them. Jayden arrived at the lantern festival and made a scene. Not a bad one; it was romantic. He crossed the river to get to Peggy, who was on the other side, and declared his love to her under the floating lights. George told Kyle about it last night, and the maids were talking about it this morning.
Jayden stopped at the end of the table and bowed. We were looking at them and waited for him to speak.
"Grandpa, big brother, I'm sorry for hurting Peggy, Caden, and all of you. I'm stupid, and I know I don't deserve Peggy, but please give another chance. I will do everything you ask to make it up for all the things I've done." He said with conviction in his voice.
I looked at grandpa and Kyle, then at Peggy. Her lips were tied but curved. I know she was starting to get nervous and restless.
Grandpa took a deep breath and spoke.
"Jayden, are you planning to marry my granddaughter?" He asked.
Peggy was surprised that grandpa suddenly asked Jayden. We were talking in our group chat about it a few days ago. Jayden didn't ntion marriage when they got back together, so she was really worried about it.
"G-Grandpa! Y-You don't need to -" Peggy tried to talk but stuttered, then Jayden cut her off by grabbing her hand.
Then he turned his head up and looked straight into grandpa's eyes.
"Yes. I want to marry her. Ever since we were in high school, it was my dream to marry her. I love her with all my heart. I can't live without her. I ca here to apologize and ask for her hand in marriage. Please let marry her! I want to spend the rest of my life with her and our son." He almost yelled, then he bowed his head again.
I was smiling when I saw Peggy was so happy. It was the words she's been wanting to hear. She thought he would never ask her and that he just wanted to be lovers without signing any paper. She was really sad about it, and I know she wanted to get married to Jayden.
Her eyes were starting to be filled with tears. She was staring at her grandpa, then at Kyle. I looked at Kyle, and he was not saying anything. He didn't show any emotions either. I frowned. Is he going to reject Jayden's proposal to his sister? I know he loves his sister very much and wants her to be happy.
"Margaret?" Grandpa was seriously and intensely looking at Peggy.
"Y-Yes! Grandpa, I want to be with Jayden. Please, allow us to get married." Peggy bowed her head as well to beg for their approval.
I was starting to get mad at Kyle when he suddenly grabbed my hand. He winked at and smiled a bit when I stared at him.
"And if we disagree? What would you do?" He asked Jayden.
Peggy's face was a mixture of shock and disappointnt. I know she was beginning to get nervous because her brother and grandpa seem to hate Jayden now.
"Grandpa, Kyle." Peggy whispered. I could feel her voice trembling.
"Peg." Jayden called. He shook his head when he looked at her.
I was watching the whole ti and waited for Jayden's reaction. I know now that Grandpa and Kyle were just testing him. If he gave up now, he would never be able to convince the two n here.
To our surprise, Jayden straightened and stared at grandpa and Kyle again.
"I will never leave Flousia and will beg you every day until you agree. I could just take Peggy and Caden away from here. We're at the right age; we don't really need your permission. But I know Peggy would want your blessing to our marriage, and I want you and grandpa to be there as well. I know what I did in the past was wrong, and I regret it. I want to marry her so I can show her how much I love her and make up with her for the rest of our lives." Jayden exclaid.
Peggy couldn't take it anymore and just burst out crying. Jayden got worried and pulled her in his arms, embracing Peggy. Then we heard Caden crying, which shocked everyone.
"Grandpa, Uncle Kyle, please allow my parents to get married. I want mommy and daddy to be together. It was my dream!" He sobbed.
Jayden got worried, so he released Peggy and rushed into Caden. He carried him and ca back closer to Peggy to console them both.
I glared at Kyle and was starting to get pissed. He took a deep breath, stared into them, and smiled.
"You passed." He exclaid.
Jayden's face lit up when he turned to look at Peggy. They thought they would have to leave without permission from grandpa and Kyle.
I slapped Kyle on the shoulder, but he was just smiling at .
"Hey, don't cry anymore. We're getting married! We're getting married!"
Jayden shouted, grabbing Peggy on the waist lifting her in the air while Caden was in his other arm. And we looked at them with a smile on our faces.
"We're getting married?" Peggy asked to make sure she heard it right. She looked at Kyle and Grandpa, then at . I was getting emotional and was crying with happiness for her and Jayden.
"Thank you! Grandpa, Big brother!" She shouted.
It is indeed another good news for the royal family.
The couple was delighted that they were finally getting married. I was also happy for them. I stood up to greet Peggy, hugging her.
"Congratulations!" I said.
"Thank you! How about you and Kyle?" She asked.
"You know, we didn't tell everyone, but we got married again a year ago here in Flousia. It's just a small celebration, and it was rushed. It was complicated back then. We could talk about it so other ti. So don't worry about us. Your brother just wanted to have a grand celebration, but we postponed it." I explained.
She frowned, and I knew she wanted to continue. I took a deep breath and smiled.
"We registered our marriage when I was in high school, right? So royals were asking about the legitimacy of the marriage. They said it wasn't valid since the wedding didn't happen here. They were planning to marry Kyle to another woman. They wanted him to get a mistress, so we got married again here. It wasn't grand because I really wanted you to be a part of it." I explained.
After so emotional but joyful monts, we took our seats to eat breakfast.
"When do you want to get married?" Kyle asked.
"Next week." Jayden blurted.
"That soon?" Peggy asked, surprised.
"Yes. It has been delayed for more than three years. Are you planning to make wait longer than that?" Jayden answered, looking at Peggy.
"No. I thought it would be at least next month. But next week is fine." She said, smiling sweetly at him.
"You will get married here." Grandpa said.
We were expecting that grandpa would tell them to get married here since Kyle and I had an issue about it last year.
"Yes, grandpa. I already sent a ssage to Luke and the others. They would be here in two days." Jayden revealed.
"Really?" Peggy exclaid with a broad smile on her face.
Jayden chuckled and nodded to confirm.
"Daddy, Lucas, and Alira will co too?" Caden asked.
Caden's face lit up, and I could see the excitent on his face when his father answered him with a nod.
"We could go and see a couturier when the girls arrive. We'll help you plan the wedding." I comnted calmly.
"Grandpa, after the wedding, we would like you to know that Peggy and I decided to look for his father. We know it's dangerous, but we want to find out the truth." Jayden announced.
Grandpa exchanged glances with Kyle and sighed deeply.
"We knew that ti would co that you would look for him. We already expected that, but be careful and if you need help or whatever you find out, be sure to tell us.." Grandpa said.
