Chapter 451 Some Changes Occurred

Steven was absolutely overjoyed. He felt that in his entire life, the two happiest moments were, first, when he tricked Laura and she forgave him afterward. The second was today, when Laura actually proposed to him.

He had never imagined that in this lifetime, he would receive such an honor.

Laura thought he would be happy, but she didn't expect him to be so happy.

Steven really shouldn't be spoiled. Otherwise, there would be consequences.

Anyway, the next day, Laura didn't want to get out of bed. Her legs were extremely sore. Laura didn't even want to talk to him.

Steven knew he had gone too far, so he carefully attended to her the next day.

Although Laura glared at him and kicked him, and wanted to scold him, she really didn't have the energy.

But Steven was still very happy. He said, "Once you propose, you can't take it back. Let's pick a date to get the marriage license first, and then have the wedding with Stuart and the others."

Laura didn't say anything.

Steven was already very satisfied. Because in the past, Laura would have already argued at this point. Today she didn't argue, which meant she agreed.

The delighted Steven hugged her and kissed her several times. He said, "Laura, how are you so wonderful? What good deed did I do in the past for God to bring you to my side?"

Laura finally said, "Didn't you have friends who said I'm dramatic?"

"Does it matter to them if my girlfriend is dramatic? Besides, even if you do, I'm willing to spoil you!"

Laura glared at him, "I'm not being difficult."

"Right, you don't, you're the sweetest."

Steven felt that his marriage with Laura was destined.

In their school days, Laura and Josephine had a good relationship and often hung out together.

At that time, Josephine was gentle and soft, while Laura was passionate and aloof.

Josephine was kind to people, but Laura spoke sharply.

Back then, many boys liked Josephine, but actually, their eyes would secretly follow Laura. Because she was such an eye-catching woman.

Lots of people confessed to Josephine, but that didn’t mean Laura wasn’t great. People were just too scared to confess to her. If you confessed to Josephine, the worst she would say was, "Sorry, I wasn’t into you." But with Laura, who knew what might come out of her mouth.

Steven was particularly fond of Laura's personality.

At first, Stuart didn't understand what Steven liked about Laura.

Yes, Laura was beautiful and had a great figure, but with their status, there were many such girls around them.

After all, men liked their women to be obedient and dependent on them. Laura was completely not that type.

But now, after getting to know Laura's strengths, Stuart felt it was no wonder Steven liked her so much. She was indeed a very charming person.

Later, he discussed Steven and Laura's situation with Josephine and even managed to get a copy of the video from that day to send to Josephine.

That video was later treasured by Steven, who didn't share it with anyone, so Stuart's copy might be the only one that got out.

Josephine indeed saw Steven crying. The tall Steven cried like a child. It wasn't exactly grievance; it should be surprise.

Looking at his expression, he was both crying and laughing, which was quite amusing. No wonder Steven didn't want to share it. People would probably laugh at him if they saw it.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Stuart and his group to go abroad.

The trip was naturally kept a secret from Josephine.

The Clarence Family had previously discussed it with Stuart because he had been abroad twice, and they wanted to know Josephine's attitude. After all, if Josephine got angry after they went, it wouldn't be good.

After hearing from Stuart, they felt reassured.

They then decided to go abroad to celebrate her birthday.

Although Josephine was busy, she could still spare an afternoon.

Andrew was too old to go. So in the end, it was the Clarence Family and Stuart who went.

They took Stuart's private jet.

After arriving, they couldn't all stay at Josephine's small place. Stuart borrowed a villa close to Josephine's place from a friend, had it cleaned, and went there right after landing.

Long flights are tiring, and Nicole, being older, was even more exhausted. But Ulysses and Jeffery were still full of energy.

Stuart first settled them in, then let Nicole rest for a while before he went to find Josephine.

Gerald said, "You've arranged everything, so I can relax."

In the past, he was the one who arranged everything at home.

Stuart said, "Gerald, you usually work hard and rarely get to rest. Consider this a vacation."

Gerald said, "Alright."

Stuart smiled and went to find Josephine.

Gerald stood in the yard and smoked a cigarette. The feeling of not having to worry about things was quite nice.

He was in charge of everything at home, and although he was busy with work, he couldn't ignore family matters. Now it seemed Stuart was doing a good job.

His phone beeped, but he didn't move. The sound was from his private number, and he felt that since he was on vacation, he didn't need to deal with it. If it was work-related, he might consider handling it.

After finishing his cigarette and letting the smell dissipate, he went back inside and casually unlocked his phone, seeing the message.

It was from Kathy, saying goodnight to him, as it was late at night back home.

Gerald didn't know, but a smile appeared on his lips. He didn't know what Josephine had said to Kathy, but recently, Kathy had been messaging him frequently.

Not at fixed times, and not about anything specific, just about her life. What she ate, a stray cat she saw, the flowers she was growing. While others shared their lives on Instagram, she shared hers with Gerald.

Gerald sometimes wondered if he had become her diary.

At first, he wanted to delete Kathy as a friend. But because he had promised Josephine, he couldn't.

However, he didn't plan to reply. Even if he ignored her, Kathy seemed to enjoy it.

But Gerald realized he had changed a bit. He used to not read Kathy's messages at all. Later, he would glance at them when he had time. Now, he basically read them all before bed.

It seemed to have become a bedtime routine.

Gerald wasn’t sure if it was a good thing. He just felt that since Kathy was opening up about her life, he, as the listener, should at least pay attention.

At this moment, Stuart arrived at Josephine's workplace.
