Chapter 1011 Wedding Finery
“To be honest, I still find things surreal, even now.” A grin adorned Tristan’s face.
“It’s real, Tristan. You’re really marrying Sophie very soon. On top of that, the two of you will live happily ever after,” Felix assured.
“Yeah. Go on and hit the sack. I reckon I won’t be able to sleep for the entire night.” Tristan did not want to go to bed.
How I wish tomorrow comes right away! Then, I can go and pick my beautiful bride up!
“I’ll keep you company, then.” We’re friends who grew up together, so I should stay by his side now, no?
“Come, let’s have a drink!”
Feeling that it did not matter to imbibe for a bit, Tristan poured Felix a glass of red wine.
“Why don’t you give Sophie a call? Perhaps she’s also no better than you, so excited that she can’t sleep!” Since he’s already bubbling with eagerness, he might as well phone her.
Tristan shook his head.
“What if she’s already asleep? I don’t want to disrupt her rest.”
Never had Felix seen the man in his current state.
He’s a man with absolute authority and influence in Jipsdale! Everyone who offends him will find themselves in dire straits. Yet, he’s now acting like a kid. Love can truly change a person. Who would’ve imagined that the cold and aloof Mr. Tristan would turn into his present self after meeting the person destined for him?
That night, there was another person who could not sleep. It was none other than William. No sooner had he dozed off than he dreamed of his deceased wife.
In his dream, she still appeared to be around thirty years old. She wore a white floral dress, looking as lovely as ever.
On the contrary, he was already old. Neither of them spoke, merely gazing at each other with tears streaming down their faces.
When he woke up, he could not sleep anymore. All his life, he had loved his wife deeply and irrevocably.
As for their children, he had also tried his best to fulfill his responsibilities as a father. He felt that his life was worth living.
His only regret was his inability to grow old with his wife. If there were a next lifetime, he still wanted to meet and love her.
Glancing at the time, he saw that it was getting late. Since he could not sleep, he draped a shirt over himself and got up.
At Sophie’s mansion, the top-notch makeup artists and stylists arrived at five o’clock on the dot.
Sophie had only fallen asleep at a little over three o’clock. After being dragged out of bed, she kept yawning in the chair.
Nonetheless, her makeup artist and stylist had already gotten to work. She had good looks in the first place, but the primary aspect of a traditional wedding was the hairstyle. By then, the hair stylist had started braiding and styling her hair.
Ysabelle, Cecelia, and Georgina had also come over. Arius had personally driven Georgina there. After doing so, he had to go to Tristan’s place. Then, he would head back alongside the groom’s party to pick the bride up.
Cecelia didn’t sleep well last night either. Whenever she thought of the events that had transpired between her and Sean, irritation swamped her.
Never had she been a person who dragged things out. Yet, she could not even recognize herself at present.
She downright loathed her current self. Alas, there was nothing she could do about it.
“Didn’t you sleep last night, Cecelia? Why are there prominent dark circles under your eyes?” Ysabelle asked in concern upon noticing her condition..
Cecelia stared at herself in the mirror. Oh well, matters of the heart are really out of one’s control.
“I’m fine. Perhaps I’ve been under too much pressure at work recently.” She did not elaborate on her matter. It was Sophie’s wedding that day, so she felt that there was no need to be unhappy because of her.
All she wanted was to see Sophie well.
Everything else did not matter anymore.
