Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie)

Chapter 732

Valerie smiled and said, "Alright, I'll keep you company."

Seeing Katherine finally smiled, Valerie felt more at ease herself.

However, since Julian had chosen to get engaged to Linda, they would have to attend the engagement ceremony before leaving. She wondered if Katherine could truly let go.

Valerie took a deep breath, saying nothing.

Meanwhile, Julian had been in a daze all day. After that night, he felt guilty toward both Linda and Katherine. Sometimes he would space out, feeling guilty when he saw Linda's smiling face.

Linda noticed Julian staring into the distance with a vacant look and couldn't help but wonder, 'What's the matter with him these last two days? He's always lost in thought.'

Linda approached him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Julian snapped back to reality. "Nothing."

"You seem to be in a daze a lot lately."

"Yeah, I haven't been sleeping well. Looking at the distance helps my eyes relax," Julian rubbed between his eyebrows, making up an excuse.

Then, he asked, "This place is not safe enough. Are you sure we're getting engaged here?"

Linda nodded, linking her arm with his, "Yes, I just want to get engaged as soon as possible, to stop others from coveting you."

Hearing this, Julian's face turned red. He was about to speak when Bowie came and said, "Linda, the costume designer is here."

Linda quickly kissed Julian on the cheek: "Wait for me. I'm going to try on the dress."

Julian forced a smile. Linda sensed something was off, but since Julian didn't say anything, she didn't pry. After all, they decided to be together, and Linda was sure Julian wouldn't betray her. Therefore, she wouldn't give up on him.

Linda's family was busy each day, preparing for their little princess's engagement ceremony.

The champagne tower and flowers had been brought in, standing out brightly in this war-torn country.

Linda chose a red dress for the occasion. She loved red the most. She wore a red dress when she first met Julian, and now even more so.

On the day of the engagement, Valerie and Matthew were also invited. Louis stayed behind to keep Katherine company.

Katherine woke up in a foul mood on Julian's engagement day. However, she tried her best not to go there.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She had promised not to disturb them. So, she intended to keep that promise.

Julian was surrounded by Linda's family as soon as he woke up.

Today was their engagement ceremony, but he felt uneasy all day, constantly thinking about the intimate moments he shared with Katherine that night.

He wanted to confess but didn't know how to broach the subject.

Everyone crowded around him as he looked at Linda, dressed to the nines across the room. Julian felt a lump in his throat.

"Julian." Linda took the initiative to grab his hand. "Today is our engagement day. Aren't you happy?"

"Linda, there's something I need to tell you something."

But Linda cut him off. "No need to say anything. Today is our engagement day, and nothing and no one can stop it. Let's go. The guests have arrived."

Today, the Blue Boar Inn was packed with luxury cars. All the movers and shakers had shown up for this grand engagement ceremony.

She pulled Julian along as they

walked forward. On stage, Linda

spoke gracefully, "Thank you all for

attending Julian's and my

engagement ceremony. From the moment I first saw Julian, I fell for him. He suddenly appeared and sayed me from danger. At that moment, I told myself this man is mine."

The audience burst into laughter.

Linda looked at Julian, her eyes full of love. Then, she continued, "But now I want to tell him, no matter what we've been through or encountered, from now on, Julian and I will always have each other in our hearts."

Julian's heart skipped a beat hearing her words. He also told Linda, "I will take good care of you for the rest of our lives."

The audience applauded. Although Julian was a foreigner here, those familiar with him knew he ran a successful business. And now, Linda and he finally got engaged.

Matthew and Valerie stood in a corner. Valerie looked at him and said, "Look at my brother. Linda took him down."

Matthew responded objectively, "Of

course. Regarding family

background and personal charm, Linda is on par with Katherine and is even more proactive. With such a passionate woman wholeheartedly devoted to Julian, he truly can't refuse or resist."

"But Katherine..."

Matthew hugged Valerie, "Don't think about Katherine now. She said it herself. True love means fulfilling each other's happiness. You know how Jufran feels about Katherine. They love each other, but

circumstances get in the way. Let's Wish them well."

Valerie felt uneasy. They knew why Julian agreed to this marriage, but Katherine was still in the dark.

But seeing Julian's smile, Valerie decided to let it be. 'It's enough if they're happy,' she thought.

She made a video call on her phone to Aiden. They had agreed that Aiden should know about such an important event. Aiden looked at his father in the video with a dejected expression, feeling slightly disappointed, "Why isn't it Katherine?"

"Aiden, don't you like this?"

Aiden shook his head, "It's not like that, Aunt Valerie. I don't dislike Linda, but I would be happier if it were Katherine." Valerie understood. It seemed even Aiden preferred Katherine, but they could do nothing about it now.

Although it disappointed Aiden a bit that his father was marrying Linda, he knew it wasn't his place to say much about adult matters. He just felt a bit down.

Valerie knew what he was thinking and comforted him: "Aiden, this is your dad's choice. You should know that sometimes our hands are tied in the adult world."

"I understand. Don't worry. Dad once said that kids don't understand adults' relationships, and I don't want to understand. But as long as Dad is happy, I'll support him. In the future, I'll find someone I like too!"

Aiden's mature words made Valerie laugh. She couldn't help but think, 'Sometimes, children are stronger than we imagine.'
