Chapter 396 - Biggest bait... (2/2)

Veronica flared her nose in anger and snapped at him, ”Shut up! Everyone present here knows that I'm the most intelligent one.”

”No babe.. You're misunderstanding their goodness. They just praise you to make you feel good. Nothing more.” Reuben pulled her leg with a chuckle.

”You idiot! How dare you… Are you calling me a dumb now?” Veronica said.

When Reuben nodded his head in positive way as if to confirm that she was dumb, Veronica started hitting him on his back and arms while others just laughed at the couple's cute bickering.

”Okay.. Now enough of both of you. Stop fighting.” Mrs. Lopez scolded which stopped Veronica from beating Reuben more.

Reuben wiggled his eyebrows at her mockingly which Veronica returned with a deadly glare.

”As it was an emotional day already, let's talk about something interesting now.” Jack said excitedly.

”What should be the interesting topic then?” Louis asked.

Thinking for a while, Mr. Wilson who was both Neil and Lucinda's father, suggested, ”Why don't we talk about the marriage dates and preparations of our children?”

At the suggestions, everyone became excited while the three engaged girls got shy on it's mention.

Whereas their respective fiances grinned from ear to ear as soon as they heard the word 'marriage'.

Henry who too was beaming like a fool, shared a glance with Neil and getting his approval too, he said, ”Before you decide anything, I just want to announce something..”

This time, Neil took the charge and replied, ”Four of us thought about it very attentively and finally we came to a decision that it'd be the best if we get married on the same day..

Especially it was Lucinda's request to get married with her love Henry on the same day her brother which is me, gets married to Willa.”

An automatic smile crept on everyone lips as they too thought it was an awesome idea.

But the happiest among all of them was the elder Wilson couple whose both children decided to marry on the same day.

”I think it'll be amazing.” Myra exclaimed excitedly whereas others nodded.

Mrs. Johnson then looked at the kids and said, ”Actually, we parents had a conversation yesterday morning about all of your marriage. We had decided to get Lucy and Henry married in one month and after one week, we thought of Neil and Willa's marriage...

But now that you guys decided to get married on the same day, we'll choose one of the date among these two...

Whereas about Reuben and Vero, all of us specially your parents insisted on you guys to get married on the next month of the other two couples' marriage. Do any of you guys have any problem with it?”

While the other two couples had no problem with it, Veronica and Reuben straightly denied the idea as they stated together, ”We object..”
