After Grace returned to Santabaca and picked her wedding day, she began to prepare for the wedding. She chose the church as the venue. And there were only seven tables of guests.
It was because the time was different. So was her state of mind.
If it was the old Grace, she would have thought that the bigger the wedding, the better. And she couldn’t wait for the whole world to know she was getting married.
However, this time was very different. She didn't want to have a grand wedding and just wanted to keep it simple.
From now on, whether she would be happy or the same as last time, she could accept any outcome...
Because, this time, she made her own choice. Whether the result was good or bad, she should be responsible for herself. The simpler life one lived, the happier one could be.
When Summer heard the news that Grace was getting married again, she seemed calm because it was all in her expectation.
From the moment Grace decided to forgive Charlie, everything was already on track. Therefore, it was only a matter of time before they got married.
And Summer was happy to see that the relationship between Grace and Charlie was going so well.
The wedding party was scheduled for ten days later. And Sherman and Kingsley were notified and headed back to Santabaca.
In the evening, Mark, Charlie, and Billy got together.
Mark usually didn’t drink, but he was in a good mood today, so he took a few sips from his glass.
Billy also smiled and lifted the cup, but he seemed to be a bit reluctant. He said, "I was thinking you'd still be my companion, but now you're getting out of this kind of life. I really hate to see that!"
"Get lost!" Charlie stretched out his long legs and lightly kicked him a few times." Honestly, do you not want to see me have a good life?"
"Of course!" Billy slapped Charlie's shoulder seriously again. "You're going to be a decent guy when you go back to your normal life. And you have to turn over a new leaf. Do you hear me?"
Charlie raised his eyebrows and ignored Billy.
