Chapter 774: Chapter 753: So it turns out we’ve been in love for such a long time!

"Of course you haven’t heard of it!"

Just as Sienna Harrison thought Michael Gordon would say something like, "You haven’t heard of many things," the man surprisingly gave a matter-of-fact answer instead, and the rest was even more astonishing: "I bought this specifically for Ivy Aretha. When I bought it, it was a deserted island, with wild animals crawling around. If Miss Harrison, with her interest in fancy things, had her eyes on it, I’d be a ghost if I believed!"

Sienna has always been a timid person, she liked to travel, but only to places with beautiful scenery or lots of delicious snacks. At most, she would visit historical sites. She never cared about or followed adventurous activities, let alone an undeveloped primeval island.

"You’re saying you bought this island? And turned it into this?"

Not only Sienna but Ivy’s eyes were wide open with surprise as well. Under the perfect eye makeup, her clear, transparent eyes shone brightly in astonishment like night pearls. Sienna’s expression of fear and happiness was captured by the photographer and kissed by the man holding her, creating a perfect picture.

Even with the photos taken, Ivy Aretha was still in shock. This luxury island was comparable to Dubai’s world-renowned vacation spot, built from an undeveloped and deserted island. How much in USD would it cost?

It’s not just about money but also the effort, human resources, and energy spent. It’s highly improbable to achieve this level of luxury in just four or five years. "Michael, when did you buy this island?"

They met early last year, and to Michael Gordon, she was still just a stranger back then. Even after learning that Bella was his child and discovering their one-night stand in the past, it had only been a year. Even if he bought the island at that time, it would take more than a year to develop and construct it. Even with the top workers of the world, this is insufficient!

Luxury takes time to complete; it can’t be done just by gathering more people. Developing a deserted island into a high-end private island for the Noble Club is not as simple as building a villa!

Michael Gordon squinted his devilish eyes and stared at her, giving her a teasing smile. After a while, he revealed a thin smile on his lips. "What do you think?"

"Could it be that you fell in love with me at our first blind date and had to have me? So you spent half of your fortune, hired the world’s best developers to build this island as fast as possible?"

If this island was bought and built for her, Ivy could only think of that possibility. Although, even in that case, a year might not be enough to achieve all of this. Michael was capable, but even a national project wouldn’t be completed that quickly.

"Pfft!"

As expected, Michael Gordon was amused by her incredulity, yet she was serious about her statement. "My dear wife, do you really think I am the president of a country, with such incredible power in just one year?"

Turning an uninhabited deserted island into a luxurious island with convenient transportation, a private dock and airport within a year is simply an implausible fairytale. Even a shoddy project wouldn’t make it that far! Besides, how could he leave such inferior work for his beloved girl?

"Uh, if it wasn’t a year ago, then when?"

Hearing Michael’s tone, Ivy blinked her eyes and suddenly felt something was off. Finally, she realized, "Damn, Michael Gordon, we only met a year ago. So when you were building this island, we didn’t even know each other. Tell the truth – who was the woman you bought and built it for? Then after she dumped you, you pursued me and gave it to me? Be frank with me, I, Ivy Aretha, have always hated second-hand stuff, including men!"

Michael Gordon: "..."

Used by someone else? Him? If he’d been used, it would have been by her!

Hearing this, the few couples who had accompanied them during the photo session couldn’t help but laugh. This jealousy was really interesting. They all looked at Michael Gordon, who, without a suitable explanation, would probably not have a smooth wedding today!

"Ahem, my dear wife, I swear to the heavens, I’ve never been used by anyone except for you in my life!" Mr. Gordon, who is always thick-faced, and mischievous, saw that his beloved wife was getting angry, quickly raised his hand to show his loyalty, "This island was bought specifically for you, there’s no ’other woman.’ My wife, what I say is true. If you don’t believe me, feel my heart!"

As he spoke, he grabbed her hand, adorned with a white lace glove, and placed it on his chest, showing a cute and devoted expression.

"Oh my god, I originally thought that you were the man who loved me most in this world, but after seeing Mr. Gordon today, I realize that you’re just so-so!"

Sienna Harrison widened her eyes and sighed at the sight of the man trying to act cute in front of the bride, completely ignoring her husband’s darker and darker face. "If I’d known that Mr. Gordon was so deeply affectionate and loyal, I wouldn’t have let Ivy go on the blind date for me. I should have gone myself!"

Upon thinking about it, this didn’t seem right either. If she had married Michael Gordon, she would have become Bella’s stepmother instead of her godmother now!

Stepmother! The word appeared in her mind, and a sour feeling bubbled up in her stomach. Jaysen Smith tried to punish the woman beside him, but he softened upon seeing her covering her mouth, wanting to vomit.

"What’s wrong? Do you feel like vomiting again?" Jaysen took out a sour plum from his bag and handed it to her. "Here, have one!"

The reaction seemed to be more severe than last time, and Jaysen felt a headache coming.

’Sienna, just be content. Even if you went on the blind date, I wouldn’t have been interested in you. Ivy is the one for me!’ Mr. Gordon looked speechless at the couple standing before him, showing off their love and ridiculing him.

’Michael Gordon, I dare you to say another word. I’ll beat you up! Pregnant women don’t need a reason to hit someone. I don’t care whether you are the groom today. Anyway, the hand you wore the ring on was cut yesterday. May as well hit your face too!’ She raised her fist, threatening to swing at Michael.

Michael Gordon: "..."

"Fine, Sienna, he’s not looking down on you. He doesn’t dare. You are his best friend’s wife. By the way, Sienna, you should be grateful to me. If it weren’t for me going on that blind date for you, Michael Gordon wouldn’t have hurt me. It would have been you!"

It had been such a long time since their first blind date, but the memory was as clear as if it happened yesterday. Speaking of it, the man’s sarcastic remark was all because of Sienna, the woman who didn’t even realize she was loved by someone!
