Chapter 414 - SEVEN YEARS OLD
Today was the day that Lexus and Candice would finally get married after two years of engagement.
Due to one reason or another, this wedding ceremony was always delayed and could only be held now.
And this wedding was an extraordinarily grand and extravagant event, which even beat Hailee and Ramon\'s wedding.
Big events like this could really illustrate the personality of Lexus where he was a person who always liked parties and crowds.
This must have been passed down from Lis. And, the combination of mother and son in this marriage would make the party event much more spectacular than Ramon and Hailee\'s wedding.
Because in the past, the couple were more inclined to keep their wedding party simple.
Candice\'s family did not mind this at all. They were just as excited as Lexus and Lis.
It could even be said that Lexus was the one who was more active in planning this wedding.
Their long-standing relationship, almost eight years, made the two of them the most anticipated couple, especially after the constant gossip that circulated during their time together.
Gossip and rumors that tended to be untrue apparently couldn\'t separate the two of them and the public was very enthusiastic about welcoming the day of the inauguration of the couple\'s love.
And the busyness that happened was not spared in Hailee and Ramon\'s family.
Especially Hailee, she was very excited about her brother-in-law and best friend\'s wedding.
"Why is mom taking so long?" Alina complained, she pursed her lips as she poked at the slices of fruit in front of her, while Ramon sat beside her, accompanying her.
"Mom is changing clothes. We\'ll be leaving soon." Ramon stroked Alina\'s hair which had been tied on top of her head.
The little princess was wearing a pink dress and also a big ribbon on her head, with her flushed cheeks looking all adorable.
"Mama\'s been in the room for an hour," Alina said, her eyes widening in disbelief. "What is mom doing?"
Ramon laughed when he heard that. An hour for Hailee was not a big deal. She could spend a day in her dressing room.
"Mom will be finished soon," Ramon said so that Alina wouldn\'t frown.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly and although it was still noon and the event was going to take place in the evening, of course they had to leave early and go to the venue first to oversee all the preparations and also meet Lexus.
"Mama takes a long time to dress up," Alina complained.
Ramon laughed softly and took the fork Alina was using to poke her food at and started to feed his daughter.
"Papa, I\'m an adult, I can eat by myself," Alina said as she took back the fork from Ramon\'s hand and ate the fruit herself.
Hearing this, Ramon realized that his little daughter was about to get bigger and he didn\'t think that seven years had passed since he carried her in his arms and saw her face when Alina was sound asleep.
Or heard her cry because she was hungry or thirsty, or just to get her wet diaper changed.
Ramon looked at his daughter and he could only see how time had passed so quickly and there was nothing he could do but watch his daughter grow up and be by his side.
Then a slightly sentimental sentence escaped from Ramon\'s lips, which he didn\'t even realize.
"Can you stay small forever like this? Papa doesn\'t want to see you grow up so fast." Ramon\'s voice was like a whisper, while his hand gently stroked Alina\'s head.
On the other hand, his daughter just tilted her head and furrowed her brows, she wasn\'t sure if she understood what her father was trying to tell her.
"But I can\'t stay small forever," she said.
"Yeah, you\'re right," Ramon laughed softly when he heard that answer.
====================
Hailee went to the bride\'s room while Ramon met Lexus with Alina in his arms.
"Uncle Lexus!" Alina exclaimed, and immediately tried to get down from Ramon\'s arms and burst into Lexus\' arms. "You look very handsome today uncle!" Alina complimented cheerfully.
"Of course!" Lexus answered proudly, then lifted Alina up. "Not just today, but I look amazing every single day, don\'t I?" Lexus moved his eyebrows suggestively, while Alina\'s smile faded. Now, she seemed to be pouting her lips.
"My father is more handsome," Alina said, and then immediately got off the Lexus\' arms to run to her father.
"How do you feel?" Ramon asked, when he saw the panic that flashed in Lexus\' eyes, even though his younger brother was trying hard to cover it up.
"I\'m going crazy," Lexus said tiredly, he then sat back in his chair and leaned his back against the back of the chair.
"I can cancel this wedding if you want," Ramon offered, because Lexus seemed very tense, like he couldn\'t make it through the party later.
Hearing this, Lexus widened his eyes fiercely. "Until now I couldn\'t even tell if you were joking or serious," Lexus complained.
Ramon then took a seat across from Lexus and looked at his brother, while Alina had run off somewhere, Ramon wasn\'t too worried about her because Pyro was there to take care of his daughter.
"If you want to treat this as a joke, then what I\'m saying is a joke, but if you really want to cancel it, I can do it too," Ramon replied casually. "Up to you."
Lexus hissed sarcastically at his brother, but then he plopped down on the chair and stared up at the dressing room ceiling, contemplating.
"I want to see Candice now..." he said. "I miss her, I want to see her wearing that wedding dress soon…"
Ramon rolled his eyes dramatically. "She\'s just in the next room, what are you missing?"
It had been three days since Lexus last met Candice. Lis had forced him to do that, because there was a belief that the groom should not see the bride before their wedding. Otherwise, bad things would happen to them.
It was a foolish belief in his opinion and of course Lexus didn\'t believe it…
But then, Alina ran into the room again while handing a cell phone to Lexus.
"Uncle, look!" Alina exclaimed excitedly.
"What?" Instinctively, Lexus took the phone from Alina\'s hand and saw a photo of Candice there, in her white wedding dress.
"She\'s beautiful, isn\'t she?" Alina said.
However, Lexus started panicking. "I shouldn\'t have seen this!"
