After exchanging pleasantries, everyone entered the house together. They chatted for a while. Then, they prepared to eat. Tony
was tactful. He did not ask Layla to come with him. Only he and Alexander came over. Alexander did not want to come at first.
Ever since Abigail was imprisoned, he did not want to see Annalise. Whenever he saw Annalise, he would notice the stark
contrast between her and Abigail. Alexander had long realized that Annalise might be a dark horse. He had always hoped that
Abigail would be more outstanding than her so they could humiliate Julian. In the end, he and Abigail were the ones being
humiliated. During the meal... Alexander ate in silence. Tony and Lee chatted. They were making small talk. They kept
repeating, “We would be family in the future. We should visit each other more.” Lee did not make things difficult for Tony. Lee
nodded. He said that he should indeed move around and stay physically active. Tony took the initiative to mention that Julian and
Annalise had registered their marriage for a long time. They should put the wedding on the agenda. Then, he put on the airs of a
father and pretended to be affectionate as he asked Julian, “Julian, have you both discussed where you’ll hold your wedding?”
He knew well that Julian would not tell him anything about the wedding without an opportunity like this. It was like when Julian
suddenly decided to marry Annalise. Tony had rushed over to stop it, but Julian ignored him. “Yes, we’ve discussed it,” Julian
said. Julian was already giving Tony the most amount of respect he could. As for the details, Julian did not need to tell him. Tony
could attend the wedding if he wanted to. It did not matter to Julian if he did not want to. “Where will it be?” Tony was full of anger
again. He was Julian’s father. Did he have no right to know about his son’s wedding? How infuriating. “It will be in Jadeborough,
on the Ocean Emerald Ferry. Our wedding will be held on the cruise ship for three days,” Julian said. He did not want to tell Tony.
about the details. Julian had thought about the wedding for a long time. How should he surprise Annalise and give her a grand
wedding? At that time, he and his assistant had racked their brains to think of various plans, such as a destination wedding,
holding it in a church, exchanging their vows in front of a priest, or going to Horington to have the wedding... Almost every plan
had its drawbacks. He could not travel the world with his friends and family. A wedding would only happen once in a lifetime.
Everyone wanted to hold it in front of their close friends and family. Annie had so many seniors and juniors. He also had his
grandpa, whom he loved deeply, and his friends. Not to mentio had her parents now. It was only when his assistant told him that
the two cruise ships he had ordered to build last year were about to be approved that he suddenly had an idea. Having the
wedding on the cruise ship was both grand and festive. It also fulfilled the requirements of having their family and friends
gathered in one place. At that time, Julian felt inspired. That night, he discussed it with Annalise. Annalise was also delighted. He
still remembered the bright twinkle in Annalise’s eyes when she heard they would hold their wedding on the cruise ship. The two
cruise ships he had customized were meant to be for East Arising International Group. East Arising International Group had a
wide range of operations, and the cruise ship sector was also doing well. Now that living conditions had improved, many people
wanted to go on a cruise to see the world. The two magnificent cruise ships cost 1.5 billion dollars. They had been delivered
before Christmas. Julian’s original plan was to start their business operations immediately after delivery. However, he would be
getting married on the cruise ship, so he postponed the operations. Moreover, he wanted the shipwrights to embed the ship’s
name with crystals. When the time came, he would give Annalise a surprise. “It’s possible to hold a wedding on a cruise ship.”
Tony nodded and asked Lee with a smile, “Lee, what do you think?” “Yes. As long as the children have agreed, I have no
objections,” Lee said graciously. Tony then asked Julian, “Has the date been set? What date has the exorcist set?” “March 22nd,”
Julian said. “Isn’t that soon?” Tony was all smiles. Deep down, he was furious. His son was about to hold a wedding, but he still
needed to take the initiative to ask about the date. Julian would only answer his question curtly. If Tony did not ask, Julian would
not have said a thing. “Yes,” Julian replied. Tony said, “Is everything ready? All kinds of details have to be arranged. Wedding
dresses, photos, decorations, jewelry, hosts, vendors, and so on must be arranged. We can’t miss any of these details.” “I’m
marrying the girl I like. Of course, I won’t neglect a single thing,” Julian said. In other words, Julian was implying that he was not
like some hypocritical people who did not love a woman but still wanted to marry her. And even after marrying her, they did not
cherish her. Tony said nothing. Alexander stayed silent, too. He felt insulted again. Lee said, “Julian, Anna is still young. I’ll have
to ask you to take care of her from now on.” “Dad, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Annalise. I’ll cherish her and protect her. I
won’t let her suffer a single day in her life,” Julian promised. Lee nodded and said, “Julian, you know that Heather and I have no
right to call ourselves Annalise’s parents. We did not look after her when she grew up, so she became proud and wilful. She has
a bad temper. She’s a free spirit. She can be somewhat petty, too. “If she does anything to make you unhappy, don’t hit or scold
her. Don’t even try to give her the cold shoulder. Call me anytime. No matter where you are, I’ll come and pick her up
immediately. I’ll bring her back home and lecture her myself.” Lee was pleased with Julian as his son-in-law, but most
relationships were beautiful at the beginning. In the future, they might gradually become a pair of resentful couples. This was the
case for Preston’s parents. For Tony, too. As Annalise’s father, he naturally hoped his daughter and Julian could be happy. He
hoped that even after twenty or fifty years of marriage, they would still be as loving as they were, just like him and Heather. But
who could be sure of what would happen in the future? Both Chantal and Selena had ended up in tragedy. Lee could not let such
a tragedy happen to his daughter. If she were unhappy living with Julian, he would take her back immediately. Annalise’s eyes
swelled as she listened to him. In the end, she could not help but tear up. A father’s love was as steadfast as the sun. Even
though Lee had been absent for twenty years, his love still ran full and deep. Julian reached out and held Annalise’s hand. He
promised Lee, “Dad, don’t worry. I will treat Annalise as I treat my life.” Julian already considered himself lucky to have found the
person he liked among the millions of people. And the person he fell for was his savior when he was young. He was
incomparably lucky. Besides, Julian had witnessed his mother’s tragic life himself. How could he let his mother’s tragedy befall
the person he loved? Lee nodded. He smiled and said to Tony, “Tony, please look after Annalise in the future.” He knew how
badly Tony had treated Annalise. Fortunately, Julian and Old Mr. Parks had protected her. After all, Annalise was living with
Julian, not Tony. If Tony dared to treat Annalise unkindly in the future, he would not let Tony off.
