    Chapter 3827


    Serenity smiled warmly and said, “I hope I can drink your wedding wine soon.”


    Elian replied confidently, “I think it’ll be before Brother Evan’s.”


    Evan’s love life had always been moreplicated. He had refused to follow the clear path his


    grandmother set out for him.


    Camryn chimed in, “After the New Year, everything will be better.”


    “Yes, everything will be good,” Serenity agreed.


    The yard was lively, with elders asionally joining the fun.


    Evan couldn’t shake off Serenity’s words to him. She had emphasized several times that his


    grandmother’s choice wasn’t a mistake and would be right for him. Serenity also hinted that he


    should look into Abby and that doing so might reveal a pleasant surprise—but Abby must not find


    out. The implication was clear: Abby might actually be Fox. And Fox’s true identity? The second


    daughter of the Du family—Abby.


    As Evan processed this, he recalled the conversations he’d had with his grandmother and Zachary.


    When he first told his grandmother he wanted to give up on Abby, rejecting the match she had


    arranged, he was certain he was making the right choice. He liked Fox, and she was the one he


    wanted to marry. If he couldn’t be with Fox, he was willing to remain single. After all, there were


    plenty of other brothers in the family to carry on the lineage.


    At the time, both his grandmother and Zachary warned him not to regret his decision. His


    grandmother specifically cautioned that if he did regret itter, he shouldn’te crying to her for


    help. She was adamant that he would eventually regret it. Back then, Evan was convinced he


    wouldn’t.


    Now, however, he saw those conversations differently—like there were hidden messages he hadn’t


    fully grasped.


    If Abby really was Fox, she might also be Bianca…


    Evan’s face changed as the realization hit him.


    He remembered telling Abby he didn’t love her. She had been upset and a bit heartbroken,


    admitting he was the first man to ever move her heart. Unfortunately, while she was interested, he


    was not.


    Since she left Wiltspoon, Evan hadn’t thought much about her. He wondered how she was doing


    now.


    If Abby and Fox were truly the same person, he would deeply regret it.


    He’d regret taking so many detours, regret the hurtful things he said to Abby, and regret giving up


    on her with his own hands.


    Though Serenity hadn’t spelled it out for him, Evan managed to piece everything together, giving


    him the rity he needed.


    Evan quickly left the gathering without touching the barbecue and headed straight home.


    The next morning, he departed from Wildridge Manor and left Wiltspoon altogether.


    No one asked where he was going, nor did anyone feel the need to. They were all adults, not


    children needing constant supervision.


    The weather the next day was lovely. The sun was out, and the chill of the night quickly faded away


    under its warmth.


    Kiera wore a red dress that day because she and Julian were heading to the Civil Affairs Bureau to


    get their marriage certificate. It was a momentous asion, so she chose a festive red dress, even


    though she didn’t typically wear the color. Her mother had bought it for her beforeing to


    Wiltspoon, suggesting they both dress festively to symbolize a prosperous future.


    When Kiera opened the door, she found Julian standing there.


    He was dressed in a white suit, looking extraordinarily handsome—like a fairytale prince.


    Kiera couldn’t help butugh at the sight.


    Julian blushed slightly at herughter and asked, “What’s so funny? Does my outfit look bad? Is it


    not good enough?” N?velDrama.Org content.
