Chapter 1727: Marriage
Chapter 1727: Marriage
As Qilin said, calculating an auspicious date for a pair was easy. He could tell him ten of those in an instant.
However, it would be different if he wanted an auspicious date for nine pairs. He needed to make sure that it was auspicious for all of them.
And this number had finally appeared.
If they were still on Earth, Nathan might not care much about this superstition. But when an auspicious divine beast personally gave that number, there was no reason for Nathan not to follow.
Obviously, the girls were happy that they could finally get this number. In a way, Nathan couldn’t push back the date any longer. It also meant a full confirmation of their relationship.
It could also make their parents relieved.
Nathan didn’t plan to reject this auspicious date. He had already intended to marry them. Rather than asking him to postpone it and calculate another number, he would rather do it right away.
The date was finally set. He would marry them next month.
Nathan pushed back the schedule for the expedition to the Asura Palace. So, after receiving that date, the girls immediately asked Nathan to return right away so that they could inform their parents.
Of course, their parents were more than happy. They had prepared a lot of things. Considering the wedding was kept private, they could easily handle the rest of the preparations in a month.
Suddenly, everything felt so empty. Nathan was alone in the mansion. The rest of them had already gone back, and Nathan couldn’t even take a peek at their progress. In the end, Nathan prepared in his own way.
Even though his parents in this world were the original Nathan’s parents, and the current Nathan had no feelings for them, he still respected them as his parents. This was the least he could do for the original Nathan.
They were overwhelmed with joy as well as anxiety. They were happy that Nathan could marry so many wonderful women, but at the same time, they wondered if they were qualified to be like this.
In the end, they were originally farmers. In this kind of world, a farmer’s son wouldn’t exactly marry a princess or a saintess.
Nathan didn’t know whether the original Nathan had married or not. He knew that he was in love with Flora, but there was nothing that indicated he had married her.
Nevertheless, it didn’t matter anymore.
He was happy that he could have a family in this world, a family that he personally created. He swore in his heart that he would make them happy and their children would be able to grow up with love and discipline.
Meanwhile, Count Ashton made the mansion chaotic.
"Hey, you. Bring that one here. Rotate it slightly to the right. That one..."
He had been managing all the preparations. Since he was the wedding organizer, he was the busiest, but at the same time, he was the most excited about it.
Count Ashton took a deep breath. "It’s finally happening. We are going to definitely make this a success..."
"By the way, where is my beloved daughter?" Count Ashton looked around. He found a butler and pointed at him. "You... Did you see my daughter?"
"I’m sorry, my lord. I don’t know."
"You!" Count Ashton pointed to the maid. "Did you see my daughter? I couldn’t feel her presence here."
"She... she said she was going to the garden because the wedding was supposed to be outside."
"Ah!" Count Ashton panicked. "The dress might get stained..."
He hurriedly rushed to the garden to warn her. He didn’t want the wedding to become something she would regret because she made a mistake.
As soon as he reached the garden, he saw Selena.
Selena was holding her skirt so that it wouldn’t get dirty. She even formed a very thin layer of energy to make sure that even if something stuck, it would only stick to this layer.
Count Ashton suddenly halted his steps and stopped right outside the garden. He was just standing, mesmerized.
All this time, he had been working hard for his daughter. He wanted her to lead a normal life, or at least become strong enough to decide her own fate. That was why he risked his life to get the bloodstone.
However, he felt ashamed of his lack of ability. It was because he wasn’t strong enough that he had to be sealed in that stone for so long.
By the time they met again, Selena had already grown so big.
When he returned to this place, he finally realized how terribly she had been treated. He couldn’t forgive himself for allowing such a thing to happen.
That was why he was also grateful for Nathan, who could make her happy. If he ever experienced a childhood like Selena’s, he couldn’t imagine how bad he would become.
He might become a violent man. He might become someone with a lack of emotion, scared because that emotion might become his weakness.
Just the thought that it would happen to his daughter scared him. That was why he wanted this wedding to succeed.
When he finally saw her in a wedding dress, he couldn’t help but halt his steps and just admire the sight.
Selena was wearing a long white dress with a big ribbon on her back. As soon as she noticed his presence, Selena couldn’t help but turn around with a small smile on her face.
"Father. I’m sorry. I just can’t help but wonder what it’s like to wear this dress in the garden. We have to hold the wedding there after all. I just don’t want to feel embarrassed if I make a mistake or something."
Count Ashton was tongue-tied. There were no words that could describe what he was feeling right now.
Selena smiled from ear to ear. "Father, I’m going to get married. Does this look good on me? Do you think Nathan will like it?"
Count Ashton was just frozen there. Tears started to stream down his eyes.
A single thought appeared in his mind.
’Ah... my daughter... is getting married.’
