Chapter 78: Heart Filled with Joy
In fact, the reason William Foster spoke such words was not because he truly believed in these so-called rules or taboos, but because he found an excuse to avoid taking back the things he painstakingly prepared.
For him, irrespective of the means, he only hoped to keep these carefully selected items with Clara Bennett.
Since Clara usually didn’t reside in the villa under her name, the only option was to have someone deliver them there.
She then handed a key to the trusted Zam, instructing him to lead others to complete the delivery task.
As for herself, she was led by the eager and expectant William Foster to the civil affairs bureau to register their marriage.
As the two sat in the car, deep inside Clara felt a sense of disbelief, as everything changed too quickly and unbelievably.
Around this time in her past life, she had also gone to register the marriage.
The situation then was extremely bad; some photos of her and Samuel Grant were deliberately exposed, and coupled with all sorts of unrealistic online comments, she felt physically and mentally exhausted, with wandering thoughts and lacking any determination while on the way to the registry office.
Back then, her decision to register the marriage was more about calming the sudden storm.
She was worried that her family might also get unnecessarily involved.
More importantly, Samuel Grant hadn’t prepared any betrothal gifts at that time, and even the important proposal was just casually mentioned one morning without any serious thought or planning.
Whenever she recalls those past events, an indescribable discomfort arises in her heart.
