Chapter 1045 - The Wedding Day (3) (1/2)

”It was really nice, indeed,” JM replied to her brother's remark. ”It's truly the wedding of the decade.”

”Are you thinking of getting married soon?” Terry looked at his sister with narrowed eyes. ”Has Altair proposed to you?”

At that question, JM only smiled sheepishly. She didn't reply. Her attitude made Terry purse his lips. He was wondering if that was really the case.

Did Altair propose to his sister? But.. but.. they were only 26. Why would they want to get married so early?

Terry was now almost 50 but even he didn't have a steady girlfriend, let alone thinking about getting married.

He could understand Rune was trying to approach Rose and he might already fall in love with her. But Rune was a m.a.t.u.r.e man. He was currently in his forties. Altair was only 26.

What would a 26-year-old man do as a husband and maybe father?

Too young....

Definitely too young.

Terry narrowed his eyes and grabbed JM's hands. He asked her urgently. ”Tell me, did he really propose to you? Aren't you both too young to get married?”

”Uhmm.. not too young,” JM shrugged. ”His mother got married when she was 20.”

She took a bottle of chilled champagne from the minibar next to her and asked Rose if she could open it. ”I am a little parched after the long ceremony. Can we drink this?”

Rose nodded with a smile. ”Of course. Let me open it for you.”

Before she took it from JM's hand, Rune had taken the bottle and shook his head at Rose. ”Let me do it, Rose. I'm a man. Ladies shouldn't do the hard work.”

”It's not hard work,” said Rose. ”It's nothing.”

”Well.. please at least let me do this simple thing for you,” Rune insisted.

Finally, Rose gave in and nodded. ”Fine.”

”Hehehe... Thank you,” said Rune with a broad smile. He carefully opened the champagne bottle and asked JM to give him glasses to fill. ”Who else wants to drink?”

Rose raised her hand. After the long ceremony earlier, she also thought she needed a drink.

Not because she was parched like JM though.

In fact... she wished they kept a stronger liquor in this car.

Oh, wait.. no. It's not good to get drunk in front of strangers on the day of Leon's wedding, she thought again. People would talk. She couldn't take the risk.

Rune poured wine into the glasses handed to him. JM took one glass, then Rose, then Terry, and finally, he poured champagne for himself.

After he put the bottle on the ice bucket, he quickly drank his champagne, to prevent Terry or JM to toast for the wedding. This champagne was not a celebratory drink for Rose. It meant nothing, just like bottled water.

Uff.. JM should have taken water, not champagne, Rune complained inwardly. This girl must be so used to drinking in her profession that she automatically took champagne from the minibar.

”This is good stuff,” JM commented. ”As expected from the Medion's royal family.”
