Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us!

Selena could almost hear a thud as she felt her heart sinking into the pit of her stomach. I had been considering all these other factors, but I forgot that Lindsay isn't going to be around for much longer. All she wants is to see her own grandchildren happy and well, and Jason is the final concern that she has.

Jerry let out a sigh then. "You shouldn't leave so soon. You should wait for the wedding to be over, or for your grandmother to... You should leave after that." He didn't finish his sentence, but Selena understood what he meant, and she gave him a solemn nod. Well, I'm afraid Pierre's going to lose his temper again when he hears about this.

The news of Jason and Jane's upcoming wedding spread across town like wildfire. Everyone was going to be watching the wedding as it happened. Most of them had already been paying attention to the couple's relationship ever since they hosted their engagement ceremony.

Jane leaped out of her bed in joy when she first heard that the Murrays had decided to host the marriage between her and Jason. I'm so excited! I'm finally getting married to Jason! "Miss Oberlin. Miss Oberlin! The Murrays are here," someone called.

"Okay. I'll come down immediately." Jane speedily tidied herself and put on some makeup before she changed into a presentable outfit. To her surprise though, she found Reuben, Jocelyn, and Selena waiting for her downstairs, but Jason wasn't around. However, it didn't matter whether he was around since the parents were the ones who usually made decisions in such situations.

Both parties were extremely polite to one another that day. "We've set the wedding to be hosted on the 8th of next month, Jane. We might have to rush for the preparations a little. Do you have any specific requests for the wedding?" Jocelyn beamed at Jane as she spoke in a warm, friendly voice.

Jane was well-aware of what the Murrays felt toward her in the past; they appeared to be nice on the surface, but Jane had always been able to tell that they didn't like her that much. Her mother-in-law, in particular, didn't seem to like her at all. Therefore Jane was shocked to see Jocelyn speaking to her in such a gentle tone right then. This has never happened in the past!

"Is the date a little too soon? To be honest, we're worried that Old Madam Murray might not be able to hang around for much longer. We're not sure when she's going to... Her greatest wish is to be able to see her grandson getting himself a wife. That's why we're rushing this wedding," Jocelyn continued to explain.

Only then did Jane realize that they were polite to her because they had something that they needed from her. However, Jane had to thank the old lady since she gave Jane the opportunity to marry Jason earlier, so dane didn't have any complaints about that.

"It may be rather rushed. Everything else is fine, but I'm concerned about my wedding dress and my bridal crown." Jane shrugged as she put on a troubled expression.

"That won't be a problem. Tell me what sort of wedding dress you prefer, and I can get it done immediately. I know a few people in this line of work, so I can get you any crown that you fancy. The price doesn't matter," Selena chirped in.

Her words came as a surprise to Jane. Jane thought that Selena was an arrogant and cold woman at first, so she was shocked to hear Selena speaking to her in such a courteous manner.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"We have a saying in Astoria that goes, 'no discord, no concord'. Doesn't that sound fitting for both of us? We're going to be family after you get married to my cousin. So, as you said, what's in the past is in the past, okay?"

Jane put on an arrogant glare, acting

as if she were the center of the whole world. "Fine. I'll forgive you for the sake of Jason. However, I don't want there to be a delay with my wedding dress. I want the prettiest dress, and I want to become the prettiest bride on Earth."

"Sure, sure. You're going to be the prettiest bride; I'm sure of it." Selena beamed as she flattered her.

The Murrays had brought a lot of

gifts during their visitation. The Oberlins gathered around the gifts and gaped at the number of presents they received after the Murrays had left their house. All of them wouldn't stop cheering about the gifts, but Jane only held her head up like an arrogant peacock. "What's the big deal? The Murrays have more than this! They have everything!"
