Chapter 128: Honeymoon? Yes!
Vernon understood her thoughts and sighed at how understanding she was of the situation. It really is risky to let others know of the kidnapping matter right now.
Helena pursed her lips and did not speak anything.
Father Ford sighed. He scooched towards her and grabbed her free hand, "Helena, dear. I know you are angry with me. I can understand your anger. I won’t justify myself.
"But listen to me now. I know you might think that your wedding with Vernon was for nothing else but for our business.
"Vernon, I know that you might think the same as well. But don’t forget that you both are our children. We, as parents, love you both so much. Just for a little profit in our businesses, we would never think of sacrificing our children’s happiness. Our priority was always for both of your happiness. We have seen you both grow up in front of our eyes. We know that you will be happy together. We know that when you are together, you will lead the best life. As parents, we never wanted anything more than that.
"I don’t know what reason you have that you are postponing your honeymoon. But, children, I am telling this for your good. If the matter wasn’t something you could avoid, please go on your honeymoon. Okay?"
Helena and Vernon blinked their eyes.
Actually, the matter of one’s honeymoon was supposed to be intimate between a wife and the husband. But listening to Father Ford’s words, why does it sound more of an emotional matter than an intimate one?
The looked at each other. They saw the same expression on each other’s faces and were stumped for words.
[Seriously, how are we perfect for each other? If I have no words, he should be able to do that, and when he does not know what to do, I should be able to help. But look at us. It is almost like we share the same brain cell. When we fight, we fight the same till the end. When we talk, we can talk for hours as well. And when one can’t speak, it is like the other loses their tongue as well. Is this how it really should be with partners?]
Vernon heard her thoughts and actually felt that she was right.
A couple should complement each other. But here they both are the same as the other. They should suit being friends compared to being partners for life, right?
