Chapter 1004: 018 Shall we be together_6

But Avery Graham was really too embarrassed to accept it. She had spent her money on a house, so her money gift was only a few thousand, yet she was supposed to take away Celia Wade’s 1.5 million. Even as friends, she really couldn’t do it.

Moreover, Bernard Taylor was using his own money to help her with the renovation; she already owed him. Could she really use this borrowed money to repay Bernard Taylor?

In the end, she still owed someone money.

"Take it. It’s okay if you don’t return it. I really do have a lot of money now, and I’m not in a hurry to use it. If you feel embarrassed, just remember to send me your new products to try first. Understood?" Celia Wade insisted that Avery Graham accept the 1.5 million.

"Well, alright, I’ll accept it then. Why do I feel like a beggar today? I’m clearly here to attend a wedding." Avery Graham was a bit depressed, but with an extra 1.5 million in her pocket, she was quite happy.

That’s to say, friends in their circle are truly friends. Many people, when they face difficulties, can’t even borrow money from anywhere. Fortunately for her, because she knew them, she made a joke, and the 1.5 million was hers.

Later, a few women joked around again. Celia Wade’s bridesmaid came in, signaling the ceremony was about to start, and Carolline Ruiz and the others then went out. Before leaving, Carolline Ruiz whispered something to Celia Wade, who nodded.

Avery Graham didn’t know that she had been set up like that.

At every wedding, there’s a bouquet toss, and when it came to that part, Carolline Ruiz kept urging Avery Graham to go for it. Seeing how enthusiastic Carolline Ruiz was, Avery Graham felt it was a trap and chose not to fall for it, sitting still at her own spot.

Carolline Ruiz didn’t mind her; after all, she had already arranged it with Celia Wade. It wouldn’t be hard to target her.

Thus, when Avery Graham was hit by Celia Wade’s bouquet in that instant, she was still a bit dazed. She hadn’t even participated, and even if Celia Wade’s aim was off, the direction had to be right. So, had this been pre-planned?

Avery Graham looked at Carolline Ruiz, who pretended to sip her soup, and ultimately let it go. Who can blame her since she is pregnant now?

Pregnant women are forgiven for anything they do, especially with flower protector like Bryan Hawkins by her side, right?

"Someone needs to step it up," Carolline Ruiz bumped her husband’s elbow under the table, and Bryan Hawkins immediately agreed.

Bernard Taylor knew whom Bryan Hawkins was referring to. Everyone seated together knew of Bernard Taylor’s feelings for Avery Graham. Otherwise, only Avery Graham would be the fool, still cluelessly unaware of why Bernard Taylor had done so much.

Avery Graham understood too; her ears even turned a bit red. Holding the bouquet, she stuffed it under the table and also scooped herself a bowl of soup to calm her pounding heart.

"Exactly, let’s hope we can celebrate another wedding this year and add a couple more kids to our group," Carolline Ruiz seemingly agreed with her husband’s words while covertly watching Bernard Taylor and Avery Graham.

Avery Graham really wanted to stand up and leave, but she gritted her teeth and bore it. "Well, why don’t we have a little wedding for our Axel, especially since Elena Duncan is here?"

Everyone: "...."

Avery Graham could be very straightforward indeed, luckily Axel Hawkins and Elena Duncan were deeply absorbed with each other, feeding each other food, not having heard Avery Graham’s words.

Alright, Avery Graham felt a bit guilty, guilty.

That evening, after organizing a bit, the bridal chamber wasn’t stormed as Carolline Ruiz needed plenty of rest because she was pregnant. So by nine o’clock, she was taken to her room by Bryan Hawkins. Megan Clifton had to take care of her baby; as a new mother, she couldn’t bear to be away from her little one for too long as she would miss him terribly.

Plus, whether it’s motherly intuition or not, she always sensed when her son was unwell or crying.

The few people left didn’t enjoy the revelry too much and ended up returning to their own hotel rooms to rest.

They were staying in a hotel owned by the Hawkins Family, courtesy of Bryan Hawkins.

Avery Graham and Bernard Taylor went up the elevator together and headed to their respective rooms. Avery carried the bouquet in her hands the whole time. Even though she wasn’t initially happy about being struck by it, wherever she went, she brought the flowers with her, a gesture that Bernard Taylor noticed.
