Chapter 448: Reiner – Breaking the Big News
The ride back to the mansion was too short and by the time that we arrived, I wasn’t at all mentally prepared to break the news of our wedding to his parents. How things worked on this island was obviously quite different compared to what I was used to. Normally, you would tell you parents before you got married and not the other way around. Not that there was anything seriously wrong about what we did on normal standards, but it was just unusual.
I remembered that Reiner did mention that we didn’t need his parent’s permission for us to get married. Although I trusted that that was the truth, what would happen if they disapproved. I was definitely on good terms with Queen, and I was beyond thankful for all that she had done for me. However, that didn’t mean that she wanted me as her daughter-in-law. As for King, well, I didn’t even know where to start.
“We’re here. It’s been a while since you were last here, right?” Reiner said casually as he parked the car right in front of the mansion.
Seeing the mansion brought back so many memories. I could vividly remember the first day that I got here and how desperate Reiner was to send me back on the first flight home on the following day. Many things happened since then. I also recalled the day that I moved out of this mansion and how I ran into Reiner and Rachael. Those were the crazy rollercoaster ride days. I sighed softly to myself when I noticed that those crazy days were probably not over yet.
“I guess it’s good to be back...” I mumbled softly.
My body froze and that cemented the fact that I wasn’t at all ready for this. The door to my side opened and I saw Reiner standing there as he bent down and offered me his hand. Time to get out of the car now. Shit.
“Thank you...” I whispered as I placed my hand in his.
He helped me out of the car, but I hesitated to take a step forward towards the mansion. Although I promised Queen to visit her at the mansion, it didn’t really work out. Sadly, I had to admit that I didn’t think that I would get to return here to this place the day that I left. I never imagined that the next time that I came back here, I would be with Reiner nor that I would come back here as his wedded wife.
“Ready?” Reiner asked as he placed his hand at the small of my back.
