After the wedding ceremony, both couples along with their guests headed to the Sy ancestral mansion to further celebrate the special day with a dinner party.

Lana and Liam went up first to change into a casual outfit.

“Love, can you help me here?” Lana asked because she could not unzip her dress from the back.

Liam gently unzipped Lana’s dress and let it fall to the floor.

Lana screamed when Liam suddenly lifted her up and carried her in a bridal style.

“Hey, isn’t this too late? You should have done it before we got up the stairs!” she complained with narrowed eyes, shooting daggers directly at her husband.

Liam chuckled and whispered, “Love, remember you’re pregnant? I’m just being careful. What if I tripped while carrying you up the stairs? I wouldn’t dare take such a risk when accidents can not be avoided sometimes…”

Lana pouted her lips and whispered, “We should hurry downstairs. The guests are waiting…”

With his naughty smile, Liam answered, “It’s okay… Father and Chelsy would take care of them for sure. Let’s celebrate alone for now… I will be quick… It’s your fault anyways for asking me to unzip your dress…”

Lana chuckled while she helped her husband undress.

Meanwhile in the vast garden of the Sy mansion, musicians were playing a piece of joyful instrumental music while the guests enjoyed a hearty dinner and c.o.c.ktails that were prepared by the Sy Family.

Miley and Jorge were the ones busy entertaining the guests.

Where are Liam and Lana?” Jorge whispered.

“They said they’re going to change outfits…” Miley answered.

“How about father and Chelsy?” Jorge asked.

“Changing as well…” Miley mumbled.

Jorge shook his head as he looked at his wristwatch the two couples were missing for almost thirty minutes already.

He shook his head and scoffed, “Will it take them that long to change?!”

Miley laughed and said, “Let them be, they will come down soon. Besides, the guests are busy eating dinner anyways. They will probably come down before the program starts.”

Jorge then walked towards the seat where Daryl was.

“Dude, what happened to you? You look like a zombie with these dark circles under your eyes,” Jorge commented with a grin.

Daryl’s face crumbled and he murmured, “It’s Liam’s fault, he is the one who gave me an assistant who just keeps bugging me…”

“Oh, Kenzie?” Jorge scoffed.

“Can’t you put up with her? Our clients are all back because of her so you should treat her properly,” Jorge commented.

‘But she keeps on distracting me from my work!!!’ Daryl wanted to voice out.

He has been sleepless ever since Kenzie showed up in his office.

Looking around, Jorge whispered, “How come, she’s not here? Lana and Liam invited her.”

Daryl cursed and looked at his wristwatch. He was giving Kenzie a hard time to make her quit assisting him, so he would often give her a mountain of files…

He picked up his mobile phone and called her.

“Did you stay in the office?” he hissed.

“Yeah, I have to finish this… You said you need this tomorrow so I’ll be done soon and head to the reception directly.” Kenzie answered on the other line.

Daryl heaved a long frustrated sign and grunted, “Stop doing that and come here already!”

“But… Ahhhhhhh!!!”

Daryl heard a scream so he asked, “hello? Kenzie! Hello?!”

He suddenly stood up, looked at Jorge, and said, “I will go ahead first…”

Jorge watched Daryl rush out and whispered, “What’s with him? He’s always annoyed whenever Kenzie is around but look at him worrying like a boyfriend?”

Jorge looked back on his wristwatch and murmured, “Those two couples… Geez, can’t they wait for the guests to leave first? It’s not like they won’t see each other again…”

Luo who approached him heard his sentiments and laughed.

“Hey… Don’t you remember how you and Miley also went missing after the wedding?” Luo teased him with a giggle, making Jorge’s face turn deep red.

“You of everyone should get a grasp of it…” Luo added, enjoying the fl.u.s.tered face of Jorge. She could still remember Miley and Jorge’s wedding where the two suddenly disappeared and left Senior Ram and Liam to entertain the guests for the whole night.

Jorge was rendered speechless, recalling his own wedding… That time Miley looked too beautiful walking down the aisle and he could just not help himself… He could not wait to remove the wedding dress from Miley and have her over and over again…

“Here they come…” Luo suddenly uttered. Jorge followed her gaze and saw Liam and Lana walking towards them. His forehead creased as he waited for his father and mom Chelsea to come out… But nothing…

Luo elbowed him and teased, “I guess Senior Sy will break your record…”

Jorge rolled his eyes and muttered, “How come your bullying never stops ever since you got pregnant. I can’t help but pity Sarah somehow. I bet you’re making things hard for her.”

Luo, with a lopsided grin, murmured, “Nah… She’s a special case. What I’m doing to her is not bullying but merely teaching her a lesson, to be careful with how she uses her mouth. She should be more considerate whenever she talks… How come you and Liam did not properly train her to be polite to others?”

“Is she doing well at Yao? She’s one of the best…” Jorge commented.

“Yeah, indeed she is. We will also have another one who’s very popular nowadays…” Luo boasted.

“Who? Kyle?” Jorge asked because Kyle’s name at that moment was soaring with flying colors after the trial of Bill Grey concluded.

“Yes, he picked Yao firm and we will have the contract signing on Monday, first thing in the morning…” Luo commented.

“That’s good then. The two firms will merge soon anyway…” Jorge reminded her.

“Oh yeah right so those two will become a part of the Sy Law firm too,” Luo commented. Her husband would let go of Yao law firm and would focus on other businesses of theirs.

“Yeah, and you will be the newly appointed Vice-Chairman when they finally become a single company… Good thing I will retire by the time you sit on your post,” Jorge murmured, grinning. Luo only rolled her eyes at him.

Jorge decided to take over on the family business that Kyle returned to him. He would work hard for its growth and success so his parents would be proud, watching him from above.
