Chapter 1514

It was still Charles and Charlotte.

Atticus had just passed away, and there was a three-year mourning period.

On the wedding day, Emerald Pool was buzzing with joy inside and out.

Since the wedding prep started, Janna's spirits had been lifting day by day.

She was even willing to cooperate with the family doctor's treatment.

Terrence was constantly visiting Emerald Pool, and every time he came, Janna was delighted.

In private, she confided to Fiona.

"I'll fight death itself if I have to, just to live through these three years and see Terrence and Chicago get married!"

After the grand wedding ceremony, there was a party at Emerald Pool. Melissa had a bit too much to drink, so Chicago had someone carry her back to her room to rest.

Just as she was about to continue entertaining the guests, someone called out to her. "Chicago."

She paused and turned to see a young man in a sharp suit.

"You made it."

"Charles invited me," Ethan said, looking at her. "I left Wholesome Corporation. That fiancée of mine was actually just a business partner."

"Yeah, my mom told me," Chicago nodded calmly.

Ethan's eyes reddened slightly. "I heard you visited my parents often."

"Well, you left because of my dad, and my dad did it for me. There's not much I can do for you, so visiting your parents occasionally is the least I can do."

Looking into Chicago's calm eyes, Ethan's heart twisted painfully. He had heard that Chicago was engaged.

"I missed my chance with you, didn't I?" Ethan choked out.

Chicago looked at him.

The memories from their childhood were distant, but she remembered some of it.

At the naive age, she didn't understand what liking someone meant.

But Chicago knew that if it weren't for that separation, perhaps she and Ethan would have been childhood sweethearts.

"Maybe," Chicago pressed her lips together. "But I don't think we missed anything. You're great, handsome, and talented. The right person is out there waiting for you."

Just then, a large hand settled on her waist.

Chicago turned around.

Meeting Terrence's gaze, she immediately smiled and then said to Ethan, "Terrence and I need to attend to the guests. Feel free to enjoy yourself, Ethan."

Ethan stood there, watching Chicago and Terrence walk away. Chicago was saying something.

Terrence had his arm around her waist, leaning in to listen carefully, then responding earnestly.

Three years later.

After the mourning period ended, Chicago and Terrence held a grand and magnificent wedding in Bay City.

Almost all the world's elite gathered in Bay City.

During those days.

The Solomon Group, the Rhoads Group, the Walker family, and many other companies offered significant discounts to celebrate Chicago's wedding.

It was a celebration for everyone.

Fiona and Darwin's love story from their generation resurfaced online.

After the final day of the wedding festivities.

Fiona and Darwin left the bustling crowd, walking hand in hand down the street.

"Time flies so fast," Darwin said, holding Fiona's hand tightly. "In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed."

"Why the sudden sentimentality?" Fiona tilted her head to look at him.

Darwin was no longer young, and time had left its marks on his handsome face.

"Even though we always say that our children will eventually leave us, when the day actually comes, it feels different," Darwin squeezed Fiona's hand.

Fiona's thumb gently stroked the back of his hand, comforting him.

She looked up at the sky, painted red by the setting sun.

Fiona then heard Darwin say softly, "I'm just grateful that, through it all, I have you by my side."
