Chapter 376 – The Eve of the Wedding
The preparations for the wedding were nearing completion, and the outside world was paying a great deal of attention to this wedding between Delia Field and York Charlie, even more than the couple themselves were paying attention to the wedding.
Those in the media who portrayed them as a divine couple must not have known that York Charlie and Delia Field hadn’t seen each other for several days, each busy with their own affairs and making their own plans.
Since Moore Howard found a reason to move into the Field family, it has been much easier for Delia Field to find Moore Howard, as soon as she gets home, and to have dinner with him, and to talk and laugh in front of Lynel Field.
Although this kind of life is also very happy, but Delia Field thought that she still does not know Moore Howard deliberately close to Lynel Field’s purpose, the heart is still a little uneasy.
In the past she might have thought that Moore Howard was doing it for her, but not anymore, she couldn’t guess his heart.
She couldn’t even see if he had a heart.
She could only blindly grasp his hand and walk through the crowd as she did now, letting him guide her to somewhere else, and she had lost the ability to judge what was right and wrong.
Like a fish, clearly a fish, she was drowning, drunk in this ocean of his.
The day before the wedding took place, Delia Field inevitably had to meet with York Charlie, they were going to take wedding photos, even if they were busy, they should still make time, otherwise it would be really uncharacteristic.
York Charlie takes this opportunity to ask about Moore Howard, “I heard there’s a new financial advisor in the family, is that true?”
York Charlie was asking knowingly.
He originally wanted the police to go directly to the Field family to look for Moore Howard, but after investigation, he realized that Moore Howard is not actually at home every day, plus he did not want to forgive Delia Field so easily, so that this farce hastily draws to a close, and has not acted.
He also wanted Delia Field to taste what it was like to be cheated.
Delia Field just came out of the fitting room, and was about to ask York Charlie if she looked beautiful in her wedding dress, but he didn’t want him to look at her with distant eyes, “Yeah … what’s wrong?”
“Nothing, just feel really rare, uncle to invest in such a big thing I actually do not know.”
York Charlie downplayed the situation, he put his hand on the armrest of the sofa, his eyes casually resting on the cufflinks engraved with exquisite patterns on his newlywed suit.
Before he’d taken the helm of the Charlie Group and quit the Field Group, Lynel Field had pretty much handed over the management of all his personal funds to him full time, and he hadn’t disappointed, bringing Lynel Field as much as a year’s worth of profits in the last few months.
Now Lynel Field would rather give it to an outsider of unknown origin than to him, and it seems to have lost trust in him.
To still want to hand over his daughter to him under these circumstances, it was not clear what Lynel Field was planning to do.
If he wanted to use Delia Field to tie him up for the sake of profit, he would be too much for himself.
The subtle atmosphere between York Charlie and Lynel Field was also contagious to Delia Field, and there was no way she could have known nothing about it, which was precisely why it was so awkward.
“I guess my dad just didn’t find the chance to tell you, he’ll tell you afterward, after all he trusts you so much.”
Delia Field was still vocally defending her father, which was humanly possible, and York Charlie wasn’t about to scold her for it.
It wasn’t Lynel Field he cared about right now, it was Moore Howard.
Knowing full well that Moore Howard was a wanted fugitive from justice, York Charlie deliberately asked her, “You should have seen that financial advisor as well, honestly I always thought he looked familiar, not that I knew him, I always felt like I’d seen him in the newspaper.”
That’s the same announcement that was in the paper when Moore Howard was wanted.
Delia Field instantly tensed up, as if she was the one who had been found out.
She had to find a way to help Moore Howard.
“Why, you’ve got your memory wrong, I’ve heard he’s just a fledgling youngster who has no business being in the headlines.”
“So,” York Charlie said with a meaningful smile, not so much a smile as a relief, as if he already knew the answer.
Delia Field had tried to trick him up to this point.
“Fair enough, I should have been wrong about that.”
Delia Field was secretly relieved.
In order not to give York Charlie another chance to continue this topic, Delia Field hastily spun around and showed herself to him from all sides, “Well, am I pretty?”
“Well, beautiful, simply the most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen.” York Charlie spoke against his will, thinking of Blanche Capra.
No doubt that tenderness in his eyes was also due to Blanche Capra and had nothing to do with Delia Field.
“This one, then.”
They were supposed to have come for the wedding photos much earlier, but they’d put it off until now because they didn’t have the time.
Delia Field packaged herself as much as she could as a happy little woman to hide the demureness of her heart.
Her smile was a little stiff, but she could barely muddle through.
“I’m going to change out of my clothes and you can wait here for a bit and we’ll go to a dinner later.”
“Good.”
After Delia Field went inside, York Charlie’s face, which had a smile on it one second, drooped the next, and he turned his head to look at the bag that was sitting next to him, which was Delia Field’s bag.
Pulling her cell phone out of it, York Charlie sends a text message to Moore Howard.
“I’ve got the information you wanted me to steal, let’s meet somewhere, it’s too dangerous at home.”
After sending it successfully, York Charlie deletes the message and waits until Moore Howard has written back, he tucks his phone back into his bag.
Delia Field changed out of her wedding dress and walked out of the fitting room, York Charlie got up and went to change, he didn’t forget to remind Delia Field, “Just now your cell phone vibrated, it should be someone looking for you.”
“Oh, good.”
Delia Field picked up her cell phone, it turned out to be a text message from Moore Howard, “The warehouse where we met earlier, nine o’clock at night, you wait for me there first.”
Although she didn’t understand what Moore Howard’s intention was, Delia Field had no reason to refuse.

…
It was dark by the time they walked out of the bridal store, which wasn’t all that unusual; it was still cold enough that it was gray all day, and day wasn’t much different from night.
York Charlie and Delia Field’s wedding photos didn’t go very well, because the two of them didn’t have a tacit understanding, they looked like models in an exhibition hall, the pictures were naturally beautiful and eye-catching, but it wasn’t at all obvious that they were newlyweds.
Just looking at the photos, there was no feeling of happiness at all.
At the end of the day, even the photographer couldn’t help but tease them that they were the most unnatural couple he had ever photographed, “But that’s understandable, some people don’t have the ability to change their perspective from lovers to sweethearts, so it’s normal for them to be nervous.”
That said, both York Charlie and Delia Field know in their hearts that the photographer is giving them a leg up so they won’t be embarrassed.
If marriage is a sublimation of love, then this marriage of theirs is a loveless farce.
York Charlie wouldn’t let these photos come in handy.
And what Delia Field is thinking is that she’s about to marry a woman, and does Moore Howard really want her to be someone else’s.
Not to mention the fact that she’s pregnant with Moore Howard’s baby.
Where do they go from here?
