Chapter 976: Chapter 949: Today I'm Going to Marry You Chapter 976: Chapter 949: Today I'm Going to Marry You “What comes easily is never cherished, and only with a guilty conscience can one be cautious of becoming too proud, and cherish her for a lifetime. I want Arua to only ever be at the receiving end of a breakup, never to let her down, not even by a hair! So, the timing of when to call him out tomorrow is crucial! We must make him remember that he owes something to my Kiara, but also can't let my Kiara wait so long that her hopes are dashed and her heart broken!”
“Woo woo!” Aka was agitated.
Still can't understand, huh!
“If you have the time to think so much for Mrs. Kiara, why not go to the scene in person?”
“Sooner or later, I will be there, I will attend personally in the identity I desire. But this time, consider it a family wine game to cheer her up. I have prepared two gifts for her.”
“Two gifts?” Aka recalled there was only one gift for her to deliver, so why was there another?
“Look, the other gift is coming.” Yuzo Joel shook his phone, pressing the accept call button.
“The job is done. The fee? Talking about money is so tacky. I'm interested in taking an apprentice and would love for her to gain more clinical experience–Oh, there's no precedent for using informal personnel, right? Well, I won't make it hard for you; my fee this time is 500,000 US dollars. Please transfer it to my card–”
The other party, upon hearing this fella's outrageous opening demand, was itching with irritation.
This guy was too much! 500,000 US dollars, where would there be so much budget? If not because the domestic region was just getting started and they urgently needed to catch this criminal, why would they hire this money-grabbing guy!
“Mr. Joel, after all, we have policies. Your request to add your apprentice to our investigation team is tricky, how about I arrange for a transfer to the research group for you?”
“Research group? I wouldn't need to find you for that. Would the dean dare to utter 'no' if I spoke up? Rest assured, she's absolutely righteous and not some random person. This experiment isn't secret, and she's not an outsider. If it wasn't for the fact that I didn't want to separate the newlyweds for too long, would I bother talking to you about this?”
“Her husband is Mario Yuno, have you heard of him?” Yuzo Joel deliberately didn't mention he knew what Camden's job was.
“Him–You plan to take her as your apprentice?” That's great news. If they could foster an expert of Yuzo Joel's caliber, that would be tremendously fortuitous.
Yuzo Joel is a top-tier talent sought after by various countries. Some inconvenient truths that need to remain private and professional matters simply can't be addressed without him. But he only works for money; without it, he can't be hired, and his other apprentices are scattered across the world–none in the inland regions. This news is absolutely exhilarating!
For example, it's like the national treasure, the Panda, having cubs–it's priceless!
“I plan on it, but the young lady doesn't think highly of me. So, I've been trying to create some internship opportunities for her.”
“I'll have her father-in-law work on her mindset!”
“If you did that, she would not acknowledge me later on. It would be like you are her enemy.”
“Why?” It's beneficial to the country, to the people, to oneself! To learn the world's most advanced techniques not shared with the outside is an honor. Yuzo Joel has been teaching in the inland region for so long, and everyone knows he hasn't taught the truly useful stuff. That we finally have someone who meets his standards, how can there be someone so foolish as to push away such an opportunity?
“Because of a pride uncomprehended by the mundane, which is also one of the keys to her success. Which top-tier authority doesn't have their principles? Chasing after benefits is unworthy of being my Apprentice. She has this trait from me, haha, she's got personality.”
Aka couldn't bear to listen anymore; the Boss was at it again, seizing every opportunity to compliment Mrs. Kiara while also boosting himself.
“In any case, you are not to work on her mindset, nor are you to mention that it was my request. Otherwise, with that temper of hers, she'd scratch your face within minutes, no matter how high-ranking you are, tut tut!”
“Then what should we do?”
“Listen to me, based on my analysis of this girl's personality, you have to set traps and bait her. Make her think she's getting a bargain, and that bargain can't be given directly or else she'll scorn it. Just do as I say…”
After finishing the call, Yuzo Joel stroked his chin.
“Boss, are you not planning to tell Mrs. Kiara about this?”
“No need.”
“Actually, if you told her all this, Mrs. Kiara might not be so disgusted with you. You must have analyzed her personality too, she remembers those who treat her well. Doing so much for her without telling her, are you…?” Addicted to being treated badly? Enjoying the abuse?
The last few words, Aka didn't say.
“I won't use these acts of goodwill to incur a debt of gratitude to change her mind. When you really have something precious, you'll understand. If you like someone, you happily do things for them, not to get their thanks, but for the satisfaction you feel when doing good for them. I'm not doing it for her; from beginning to end, I'm doing it for myself,” Yuzo Joel said.
“Boss…” Aka stared blankly at her cunning and sly Big Boss, it took a while for her to show a flabbergasted expression.
“You're not fond of our Mrs. Kiara, you want to be a cradle snatcher?”
Camden would kill him, really!
Yuzo Joel almost fell over and also showed a shocked expression.
“Can you not disgust me! We're not like Zeus and Hazel Persephone, that's revolting! Besides, the Green Military Dog Clan are not Hades!”
“What are all those… things?” Do they sound like names from mythology?
“Better you remain clueless!” Yuzo Joel knocked Aka on the head, thinking it was good that he sent his dumbest apprentice over. He had told her the story of Zeus and Hazel Persephone was not about him and Kiara, and this silly girl still didn't get it.
If it were any of his sharp apprentices, they would have understood long ago.
Indeed, better they don't understand.
On this night, while some meticulously planned for their invaluable treasure, others willingly drank bottle after bottle amid friends' goading, beaming with happiness while drunk, all because tomorrow he could marry his beautiful bride. Some gazed at the moon, thinking about tomorrow's wedding and the long-anticipated marriage.
Kiara looked at the moon, her heart full of various memories, all of them good.
The wedding, long overdue, yet naturally came to fruition, as the ripe fruit falls from the vine.
Thinking back on the years of their relationship, it was hard to find any memory of arguments or disagreements. The youngest brother of the Yuno family was a tyrant outside, who wouldn't hold back even when he should be mad at his superiors, but no matter how Kiara upset him, he was always smiling shamelessly, at most he would storm off and return after a lap.
And such moments could be counted on the fingers of one hand.
How could she be so fortunate, to have met such a considerate man who always indulged her.
The next day, Kiara, dressed in festive wedding attire, waited for him to come get her. The red bridal veil embroidered with dragons and phoenixes obscured her sight, but when the bustle around her quieted down and the movement of air settled, she felt a familiar and commanding presence, and her whole world lit up.
She knew, her groom had come to get her.
