Chapter 1463


    After a while, Belinda nced at the clock and said to Arabe, "What''s the deal with your uncle?


    Why''s he hogging Romeo for such a long chat? It''s already nine o''clock. Be, go find them, tell your


    uncle that grandma needs him."


    Darren couldn''t help but chime in with aint, "Romeo''s here for Be, and after dinner, they

    ought to have a walk and talk together. Your uncle''s monopolizing him - don''t scare the guy off on his


    first visit."


    "Yeah, hurry up. You young people should be together. What''s he doing hanging around so long for?"


    Belinda nudged Arabe towards the garden to find them.


    Bard and Romeo were hitting it off splendidly, and if it wasn''t for Arabe''s arrival, Bard might not have


    realized he''d been hogging Romeo''s time.


    "You guys chat." Bard said with a chuckle, making space for them.


    Once her uncle had left, Arabe asked, "What''s been keeping you so entertained?"


    "The wedding," Romeo said affectionately. "your uncle wants toe to our wedding; he said he''d give


    us a hefty gift."


    Arabe was taken aback that they''d discussed something so far in the future.


    Romeo reached for her hand, "I''ve got a few buddies around here who want to meet you. Are you


    free?"


    "You have friends?" Arabe was surprised. In the half year they''d been together, she didn''t realize a


    man of few words like Romeo had friends.


    Noticing her surprise, Romeo smiled indulgently, "Just a couple of old chums. It doesn''t really matter if


    you meet them, but I want them to see that I''ve got such a wonderful fiancée."


    He gently stroked her cheek, which was soft and smooth.


    Arabe knew what he was up to - he wanted to unt their love in front of others.


    "Alright then."


    Romeo hadn''t expected her to agree so quickly, his eyes shimmering with joy, "I''ll arrange a time and


    let you know in advance."


    "Sounds good."


    Hand in hand, they strolled through the garden until ten at night when Arabe suggested he head


    back to rest.


    Romeo went to say goodbye to Darren and the others, who warmly saw him to the door, piling gift after


    gift into his car until the trunk was full.


    "These are little tokens from your grandparents, uncle, and aunt, you can''t say no!" Darren insisted,


    saying affectionately, "Come over for dinner anytime. We all like you a lot, and so does Be."


    "I really shouldn''t ept this."


    Romeo''s protest was cut short as Darren and Bard escorted him to his car, with Belinda and Eunice on


    the side saying, "You gotta take it, and once you do, it means you''re one of us. Drive safe, take it slow,


    ande over whenever you have time."


    Romeo felt their warmth and replied gently, "Alright."


    He turned to Arabe, his tone as tender as ever, "I''ll call you when I get home."


    "Okay."
