Chapter 354 - 351: Wedding Song I (1/2)

Geoffrey and Serena's wedding was not a private matter but rather a state matter. It was the marriage of the future king of Windsor, thus many details about the wedding were according to royal wedding protocol. In this regard, not a lot of planning fell on the shoulders of the couple.

Still, some minute details were decided by them though. Like the wedding dress, the design of the cake, the songs played on the day. Which song to use for their first dance.

These details were now the topic of conversation between Serena and Geoffrey.

They just arrived in the drawing room of the Maxwell ducal mansion after returning from their wedding rehearsal. Their wedding will be in 2 weeks.

”I think a train that long won't be good. It would be too heavy for you to move in considering…” Geoffrey said as they walked inside.

Serena giggled as she shook her head. Really, Geoffrey was a worrywart. ”Don't worry, I won't choose to wear anything that would compromise me and our child.”

Geoffrey smiled as he moved to wrap his arms around her middle. ”Okay. Anyhow, are you sure that you don't want me to accompany you in meeting Edward Easton tomorrow? I can skip the morning session to join you.” Geoffrey asked and suggested.

Serena untangled his hold on her to face him. He was too sweet. If before, it would irritate her how clingy he was, now she rather enjoys it. ”You shouldn't skimp on your duties because of me. Besides, I'm the one who signed that contract, so I should be the one talking to him to end it. I don't want to scare Edward with you looming behind me, it would feel like we're threatening him.” She jokingly said.

Geoffrey chuckled. ”Alright. So, this got me wondering, why do you like music so much that you even signed a contract that long?”

Serena smiled a bit wistfully. She didn't want to tell the truth for it might hurt him, but she knew that honesty was needed in any relationship. ”Dont't be angry okay? I wanted to delay our marriage at that time.”

”Oh.” Was all Geoffrey could say.

Serena felt ashamed of herself. But that was all in the past. ”But now I know how stupid that was. Forgive me?” she asked as she held Geoffrey's hand and looked him in the eyes.

Geoffrey kissed her forehead. ”There's nothing to forgive.” He answered.

Serena felt her heart skip a beat. How could she not have considered him before? ”However, don't discount my love for music. It's real.”

”Yes, I could see that. How do you even come up with such beautiful songs and lyrics?”

”Well, whenever I feel strong emotions about something or about a certain moment, I associate it with a song. With the lyrics, my feelings at that time can be expressed more clearly and immortalized. Something like that.” She explained.

Geoffrey nodded his head, ”I see…” then he wondered, was he able to…
