By the time Janet arrived, the venue’s set-up was almost completed.
She knocked on the door of the rest room backstage. After the person in the room consented, she opened the door and walked in.
As soon as the man in the room saw her, he immediately got up to welcome her before he wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered, “You’re here.”
Janet put her bag on the couch and she nodded with a slight smile on her face.
“Where’s grandma?”
“She’s been busy for the entire day, so I asked her to return home to rest. She’s put in a lot of effort.”
Upon hearing that, Mason’s eyes slightly narrowed. As he pouted, he asked, “What about me?”
An amused Janet tiptoed on her feet to give Mason a kiss on his lips. “You too. Thanks for the hard work.”
“It’s not hard at all.” He circled his arms around her waist and put his head on her shoulders to flirt with her. “I just want you to notice my hard work too.”
Janet raised her hands and caressed his head gently. “There, there. Who’s a good boy?”
Upon hearing that, Mason laughed. He had a look of happiness that she had never seen.
“Janet, I’m so happy that we are getting engaged tomorrow. From tomorrow onward, you are my wife. I feel like everything that has happened is like a dream. It’s so unrealistic.”
After recalling the many times that they met at different places, he thanked the ‘miserable’ auction that was held.
It was because of that event that he was able to get to know Janet.
Even though he had imagined marrying her one day, he did not expect this wish of his could come true so soon.
Everything happened so quickly that it did not seem real at all.
The happiness that he wished for also seemed surreal at this moment.
The only real thing was her standing right in front of him.
A flash of light flicked in Janet’s eyes, but it was soon buried deep within her. “Don’t think too much into it. I’m still not your wife yet.” With that, she laughed gently.
Mason looked at her with confusion in his eyes.
Janet started thinking about it solemnly as she bit on her lips. “I can only be considered as your wife after we get the marriage certificate.”
Upon hearing that, Mason smiled and pinched the tip of her nose. “After the engagement party, we’ll immediately get the marriage certificate.”
She arched her eyebrows as she smiled. “I think you forgot about my age.”
She was not at the legal age for marriage yet.
Mason was slightly disappointed. After all, he had forgotten about it.
All this while, he had wanted to marry her so much that he even dreamed about it. Hence, he had forgotten that she had not reached the legal age for marriage. However, since he wanted to get married, the age requirement was not something that could hold him back.
After seeing his crestfallen expression, Janet teased him. “Old man.”
Old man? His expression slightly darkened, but he smiled in amusement. “Can the old man satisfy your desires?”
Upon hearing that, she glared at him immediately.
This man seems to be able to make s*xual jokes anytime of the day.
“You old pervert!”
After hearing those words, Mason felt slightly aggrieved. She’s the one who provoked me first, yet I have to bear the ‘crimes’ she accuses me of.
Mason arched his eyebrows and he stared into Janet’s eyes as he flirted with her. “Can’t the old man satisfy you, Janet? Who’s the one who wrapped her legs around my waist and flirted with me in my embrace? Who’s the one who keeps saying that she wanted more? In the end, who’s the one who wanted to marry me? Janet, you said these words yourself. Don’t tell me that you already forgot about them!”
Impossible! I wouldn’t have said such words so proactively! Janet’s ears immediately turned red as she turned her head. “I don’t recall saying that.” He teases me more often now, so that must be something he just made up.
“Alright, then. I’ll make you remember it.” With that, Mason was about to make his move.
Just as she took a step back to avoid him, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Janet heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that. She felt as though she had just escaped from him.
Then, she shot Mason a provocative look.
With pursed lips, he spoke in a low and displeased voice, “Enter.”
