Chapter 333 - I do. (1/2)

Aleksis could not remember what they talked about, because her mind wandered over with euphoria. The man of her dreams, whom she had found, had become her boyfriend, and would soon become her husband.

She would then face her family. Her father, mother, and Uncle Rory would not be able to refuse and oppose her relationship with Alaric if they were already married.

Aleksis knew her family well and she knew that they would not be able to accept Alaric with his background. Their perspectives and principles were too different. She must protect Alaric from her family's refusal and give the man time to change.

He had said before that there was hope for humanity ... so in Aleksis' eyes, there was hope for Alaric to change. Her family would not understand this ...

Once deemed ready, Aleksis signaled the waiter and asked for the receipt. She pretended to pay, so Alaric would not be suspicious.

”I'll pay,” Alaric said, taking out his card.

Aleksis shook her head quickly. ”I was the one who invited you to eat here, let me pay. You can pay for the wedding costs ... hahaha ...”

Alaric laughed and nodded. Aleksis received the bill from the waiter, pretended to read its contents and then rushed to the cashier. There she winked at the manager of the Sky Bar and signaled that they should not talk about it. She just scribbled on the receipt, pretending to sign a payment, and then said thank you.

”Allright. Shall we go now?” She asked as she approached Alaric.

”Let's go.”

They left the Sky Bar arm in arm, looking very intimate. The waiters and managers of Sky Bar could only stare and look at each other. They knew the girl was an important person in the Schneider Group, even though they did not know her exact identity, but they had orders to follow whatever she asked them to do.

After seeing her eat with a mysterious man, who covered his face with a mask, and walking out of the restaurant holding hands, they couldn't help but wonder who the two were.

For the past ten years, Singapore had positioned itself as the most advanced modern tourist destination in Southeast Asia by opening an area in Sentosa that was inspired by the concept of Las Vegas in the United States.

There, the nightlife was very lively with the rise of hotels, casinos, restaurants, and even wedding chapels, just like in Las Vegas.

Cirque du Soleil had opened a permanent venue and performed world-class performances every night before the impressed crowds. Hotels had also begun contracting top artists to hold permanent shows.

Even Billie Yves was reportedly willing to accept a contract for 6 months to perform at the Caesar Residence Hotel, which excited many fans because this exclusive artist would be reachable by fans in the Asian region.

In addition to various entertainment centers and casinos, wedding chapels were also built to provide quick and easy wedding services for many people who suddenly wanted to get married or were looking for a practical wedding procession.

They only needed to come with their passports and pay the cost for the procession and the marriage celebrant, and within 10 minutes they were legally married.

That was where Alaric and Aleksis were heading tonight.

Aleksis excused herself for a short time to go to her 'room' at the Continental Hotel to get her documents, while Alaric had his assistant make a reservation in the chapel.

Five minutes later, the two of them walked into the Alaric's armored vehicle in the parking lot and he immediately ordered the driver to head for Sentosa.

”It's not raining tonight ...” Aleksis said. ”Usually you only take the car when it rains.”
