Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2248

Emily's eyes brimmed with tears, her heart swelling with emotion as she choked out, "Thank you, thank you for speaking to me like this today."

Mrs. James chuckled, "So, what do you think? Ready to tie the knot with Charlie?"

Emily, smiling through her tears, replied, "I've never been against it."

Mrs. James playfully scolded, "I knew it. Charlie has dug a hole and got me to push for the wedding."

Emily softly laughed, dabbing her eyes, and then looked up sincerely at Mrs. James, "Auntie, I do want to marry Charlie, but not just yet. I'm acutely aware of the differences between us, and I hope to one day feel like I've accomplished enough to stand by his side as an equal!"

Mrs. James pondered for a moment, "You're already perfect in my eyes."

Emily shook her head, "I can't compare with Charlie in terms of family background, and that's an unchangeable fact. But I do hope to achieve something in other areas to bridge the gap between us."

Mrs. James smiled gently, "I understand where you're coming from."

"So, Charlie's plan has fallen through today," she continued with a soft laugh.

"No!" Emily's gaze was clear, "Your words today have given me so much confidence, making me feel closer to Charlie and brave enough to dream about our future together!"

Mrs. James, with a serene smile, said, "Then I'll not rush you. In my heart, you're already part of the James family."

Emily earnestly responded, "Thank you!"

Mrs. James embraced Emily gently, whispering, "It's a good quality to be prudent in love and independent in finances. I'm happy for Charlie. But don't overburden yourself; it's also important to rely on your partner at times, speaking from experience."

Emily couldn't help but laugh, "I'll remember that!"

Releasing her, Mrs. James said, "Charlie and Kya are in the garden. Go find them. After the reception, we'll all head home together."

Emily's eyes shone brightly, "Okay!"

Mrs. James squeezed her hand and stood up to leave.
