Chapter 1372
Everett froze for a moment before looking back at Dorothy with eyes brimming with tenderness. "I'm honored, truly, to have battled through thick and thin to finally claim the title of your husband."
Dorothy laughed.
"Truth be told, this position... was always meant for you."
She never considered anyone else but him.
The staff was efficient, and in no time, they had their marriage license in hand.
Such a small document, with not too many words printed on it.
Yet, Everett looked it over and over again!
Finally, he carefully slid it into his suit pocket.
"Relax, no one's going to try and steal your marriage license!"
He looked like he was about to lock it away in a safe!
"Having finally got what I've longed for, of course, I have to treasure it." Everett quirked a smile, "From today onward, I'm officially your partner, protected by law." He felt his statement wasn't sufficient.
So, he took out the marriage license, posed in front of the city hall, and snapped a photo to post directly on Twitter!
Everett's WhatsApp was filled with contacts from the business elite, both wealthy and noble.
Dorothy had never expected him to do something like this.
"You..."
"I've decided, from now on, the Lopez Corporation will observe today, and August 25th as paid holidays."
Everett felt his joy wasn't complete without sharing it with more people.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Why set this up all of a sudden?" Dorothy was a bit puzzled.
"This way, every year on this date, people will thank their boss's wife, thankful for our union."
Everett spoke with such logic, Dorothy had no objections. She just watched him, smiling.
It turns out, no matter how mature and composed a man appears, when his dreams are realized, ke can revert to a childlike state naive but endearing.
Because he simply wants to express his joy more vividly!
"That saying really is true."
"Which one?"
"Men are but boys at heart."
Everett paused for a moment, then laughed.
Not far away, Jeffrey honked the car horn vigorously.
They instinctively looked over-
Unbeknownst to them, Jeffrey had brought Karen along!
"You two just went and got your license in secret? Didn't even get a witness?"
Just then, Jeffrey and Karen had seen everything, even Everett taking a photo with the marriage license! "How did you guys get here?"
"To be your witnesses, of course!" Karen winked at Dorothy, "You messaged me just now, saying you were pregnant and registering at the city hall, so I dragged Jeffrey here immediately! How could I miss out on such great news?"
Dorothy absolutely loved moments like these.
Everyone's faces were filled with genuine smiles, not a trace of insincerity.
"Everett, you've truly got your
now, huh?" Jeffrey put his arm around Everett's shoulder, "You two, it hasn't been easy! To finally make it official, I might just cry!"
Everett pushed his arm away and brushed off his suit, "Well, go ahead, let's see you cry."
Seeing this, Karen burst into laughter, pointing at Jeffrey, "Just as I thought, the only person who can handle you is Everett!"
Jeffrey grimaced, "Don't mind Everett acting all disgusted now, he's still got a soft spot for me in his heart!"
