Joseph Grant wasn't interested in the slightest in Victoria's matters. He only tightly hugged the woman in his embrace. Alvina also didn't want to talk about other people's matters either, so she tiredly curled up in his embrace, looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow.
That night, Alvina kept trembling in her sleep. Joseph Grant knew that she pretended to be strong on the outside, but she was still scared. He felt sorry for her and blamed himself. The only thing he could do was to hug her all the time to give her a sense of security.
Morning!
To Joseph Grant and Alvina, today could be considered as a major event in their lives.
Joseph Grant had woken up very early, and the sky outside was still bright. He propped himself up and looked at the girl with a gentle gaze. She had not slept well last night, so she looked very tired. The man really did not have the heart to disturb her at this time of the morning when she was sleeping soundly.
Since it was only an engagement ceremony today, and not a wedding. Joseph Grant planned to let her sleep longer and not rush it.
Alvina opened her eyes in a daze and saw a bright light outside the window. She was so frightened that she quickly sat up.
"Joseph Grant." Alvina could not help but exclaim out loud. Just now she had dreamt that she was wearing a wedding dress and was running through a forest. She was looking for the groom. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find him, and he was so anxious that she was about to cry. When she opened her eyes, Joseph was not here. She was scared.
Alvina quickly got off the bed. Without even wearing her shoes, she quickly ran out the door.
When she was about to go downstairs, she bumped into a man who was walking up the stairs with a glass of milk in his hand.
Joseph Grant was wearing only a grey turtleneck sweater and a pair of long slacks. He looked lazy and elegant. It was very different from his usual style, and he looked young and romantic.
In comparison, Alvina's image fell. Her long hair was in a mess, and the pajamas on her body slanted to the side, revealing her white shoulders and half of her jade arms.
The two of them ran into each other on the stairs, both of them looking surprised.
"Alvina, what's wrong? Where are the shoes? " Joseph Grant shifted his gaze down her face in astonishment, discovering that she was barefooted. Furthermore, her two small hands were tightly clenched, as if she had met something terrifying and needed to muster up the courage to face it.
Alvina's cute little feet finally moved a little, embarrassed, and her pretty face flushed: "I … I thought you were gone. "
"What are you dreaming about? Do you know what day it is today? How could I disappear? " The man couldn't help but chuckle. He walked up to her gently and placed the milk in her hand. He then bent over and said, "Come on, I'll carry you back to the bedroom."
"No need …I'll walk by myself. " Alvina felt even more embarrassed. Why did she seem like a madman?
"The ground is very cold." The man's voice was deep, but it carried a sense of perseverance.
Alvina nodded and climbed onto his shoulders. The man grabbed both her legs and carried her on his back.
When he walked into the bedroom, the man seemed to feel that something was wrong. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, and saw that his finger seemed to have been dyed red.
"Alvina, your dress …" The handsome man was stunned for a moment. Then, he shifted his gaze to the woman's back and discovered that there was a small patch of moisture on her beige nightgown.
Alvina immediately pulled her skirt over and saw her embarrassed look.
"Ah …" Alvina had always been sleeping on her side yesterday, so the nightgown was dirtied by her blood. She let out a sharp scream, and felt that she was so embarrassed.
Joseph Grant was also embarrassed. Although the one losing face was not him, he blushed too.
"Go take a shower, I'll wait for you downstairs." Joseph Grant saw that the lady's face was so red that it seemed as if blood was about to drip from it, and her head was drooped over her chest. He quickly smiled warmly, and turned to leave after he finished speaking.
Alvina stood in that spot for a long time, and finally couldn't resist covering her face.
The young men and women living together in the movie were obviously as romantic as a painting, living a beautiful life as beautiful as a poem. However, when she was with Joseph Grant, it seemed like there would be endless humiliation.
Alvina realized that the movies and TV dramas were all lies. In reality, how could life be like a poem or painting? There were too many accidents.
Alvina took a bath, and she changed her clothes. She went downstairs. She saw him sitting at the dining table in a daze. Joseph Grant, I'm sorry. " The man's fingers stained with her blood and she felt extremely ashamed at this moment. She had heard that men still despised these things.
"Don't be shy, we're both going to get married. There's no more privacy between husband and wife, right?" Joseph Grant knew that she was thick—skinned and immediately smiled to console her.
"But … I still feel embarrassed. " Alvina sighed.
"Don't. Come over and eat something. We're about to go over." Joseph Grant walked over. He gently held her small hands and pulled her to the side of the table.
Alvina sat down and nibbled on her bread while drinking the milk. She felt that it was both funny and annoying.
