Chapter 1082: Chapter 1062: Uncle Marries a Bride!

Just as he had expected, the woman’s message really didn’t come!

"Hey, Young Master Gordon, you seem to be in a very good mood today!"

Bella Gordon noticed as soon as her brother walked in that his mood was very good. Although he wasn’t smiling, the satisfaction in his eyes was undeniable.

"Yep!"

Bella Gordon was shocked to hear her increasingly reticent brother candidly admit, when she commented on his good mood, "Where are daddy and mommy?"

"In the children’s room, playing with Sisi!"

"I’ll go find them!"

"What do you need them for?"

"To help me go ask for a proposal tomorrow!"

Bella Gordon: "..."

"A proposal? Rio Gordon, are you sure you haven’t misspoken?" Bella Gordon was startled by those two words coming from his mouth, "Do you even have a woman to propose to?"

This world is really fantastical, she thought. A man who has never even dated suddenly tells her he’s going to propose—it’s enough to make anyone feel like they’ve gone to the dogs!

But his answer made her feel not like it was a dog’s day, but that she was screwed!

"It’s never too late to have someone now!"

After saying that, he went straight upstairs, leaving Bella Gordon alone with a big bucket of popcorn, foolishly sitting on the sofa, mulling over his words "It’s never too late to have someone now?"

Does he now have someone he could propose to?

Bella Gordon suddenly remembered what Sisi had said yesterday, "Uncle seems to fancy someone, and wants to marry her to be our aunt." Could it be that person?

Wait a minute...

Something’s not right!

Damn, she’s a divorcee!

Without a second thought, Bella Gordon rushed to the second-floor toy room: "Hold on, dad, mom, don’t start egging him on just yet, let me first talk to this crazed guy!"

"Rio Gordon, is the girl you said you want to propose to also have a child? Named Phoebe?"

"How do you know?"

Rio Gordon was surprised. He hadn’t told anyone, so he was curious about how Bella Gordon knew Senna had a daughter!

"Have you forgotten about Sisi? She is my daughter, after all!"

"Did you interrogate my niece?" Rio Gordon knew his precious niece very well, she was never one to meddle in others’ affairs, and she wouldn’t share something unless she was particularly happy about it. He didn’t need to guess that it was his sister’s gossip-driven interrogation of his niece, "Sister, what are you trying to say? That there’s something wrong with me marrying a divorcee with a child?"

"Oh come on, out of all the people you could marry, you have to pick someone with a kid to raise?"

"But I like her!"

Bella Gordon was quite agitated, but Rio Gordon wasn’t agitated at all, appearing completely calm and collected.

"Just because you like her, you can tolerate that she has married someone else and even had another person’s child? If Roy’s sister-in-law had been married to another man and had a child with him, even if I couldn’t live without him, I wouldn’t marry him!"

It wasn’t until Bella Gordon saw everyone’s reaction that she realized her own had been too intense.

"That only proves you don’t love your brother-in-law enough!"

Rio Gordon replied to her indifferently and then picked up Sisi, who had a puzzled expression on her face, and headed out the door. Halfway through, he turned back to look at Bella, "I’ve spent the entire night thinking it over. I’m clear now about what I want. I’m not asking for much; I just want her by my side. Everything else doesn’t matter to me. So, sis, I hope that once she marries into the family, you can still like her as you did before!"

After saying this, he left with the child without looking back, leaving Bella Gordon speechless and unable to finish her sentence.

"Alright, sweetheart, your brother has finally seen sense. Let’s not be so judgmental. What’s wrong with having been married and having children? Who says everyone’s marriage can be perfect on the first try!"

Ivy Aretha patted her beloved daughter’s shoulder to signal her to be quiet, "Haven’t you always been persuading your grandmother to find someone new? How come when it’s your brother’s turn to like someone, you become so unreasonable? We can’t apply a double standard to different people!"

Err?

Bella Gordon hadn’t even heard what her mother was saying. She was focused on another issue, "Mom, Dad, Rio just said he hoped I could still like her as I did before. Who did I like before?"

"Wait, who is he really going to marry?"

"It’s the girl from the Leon family, Senna. Remember how she used to chase after Rio to our house when they were kids? Back then, when Rio wanted to drive her away, didn’t you scold him and comfort her? Don’t you remember?"

Ivy Aretha furrowed her brow and touched her daughter’s forehead, "You don’t have a fever. Have you lost your memory?"

"Lost my memory my ass. I didn’t even know it was Senna. If I knew it was her, why would I go crazy?" After all this time, it turned out that her brother was going to marry Senna, "Senna’s back? And she’s been married and had a child?"

That’s highly unlikely, isn’t it?

"Yes, you’ve also met her daughter, Sisi. As to why Senna got married and had a child, if Rio isn’t bothered by it, why should we care so much? We’re all family after all—why does blood relationship matter so much?"

Ivy Aretha sighed emotionally, "It’s not easy to find someone you love in this life. When you have the chance to be with them, don’t miss it. That’s how it is with Rio. He missed his chance to be with her, and he’s been unhappy and alone for so many years. Now that he has the opportunity to be together again and has come to terms with it, that’s for the best. We should be happy for him!"

Half a lifetime had gone by, and Ivy Aretha had experienced many things, from being lost and displaced in her childhood to a teenage pregnancy and now, with a house full of children and grandchildren. She truly understood that some happiness comes from cherishing those around you and being forgiving.

When you have the chance to hold hands, don’t miss it. When you can be together, don’t just settle for an embrace. If it hadn’t been for Michael Gordon’s assertive pursuit back then, she wouldn’t have this vast happiness today!

"If it’s Senna, then I’m relieved. I thought he saw some woman on the street and fell in love at first sight and then decided to marry her regardless of whether she was married before or had children. Of course, Senna is different!"

That girl is well-known to them, at least she grew up with them. Who doesn’t have a past?

Ivy Aretha: "..."

She had just advised her not to have a double standard, and now she realized her double standard was so strict!

As soon as Ivy and Michael Gordon received Rio Gordon’s request, they began preparing the betrothal gifts overnight. When Chani Gordon heard that her brother was getting married and the bride was Senna who she knew, she excitedly went to seek help from her "God," Phoebe.

All night, she kept Phoebe busy helping with the betrothal gifts, while also instructing him to remember, when it’s his turn to marry her, he must do it the same way, which made Bella Gordon burst into laughter.

The Gordon household was bustling with excitement all night long, except for Rio Gordon, who sat quietly on the sofa all by himself, silent as if contemplating something very serious. If it weren’t for his assertive declaration earlier, Bella Gordon would have suspected he was being forced into marriage!
