Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Chapter 1989 Preparing For The Wedding

Chapter 1989 Preparing for the Wedding

The days with children passed by quickly, and half a month had already flown by. It had been more than 20 days since Joyce gave birth.

Today was the weekend, and both Anderson and Alisha were at home.

Joyce had an impatient temperament, and despite everyone's opposition, she had already gone to JK Intelligence yesterday to handle a day of work before returning home. Today, Luther absolutely refused to let her go out again.

Early in the morning at home, the two of them had a slight argument.

Luther expressed his displeasure, "You haven't completed your postpartum recovery yet, and you worked all day yesterday. What else do you still need to handle? Let me handle it for you, or you can handle it online at home."

"I haven't been there for more than half a month, and how can I finish all the piled-up work in a day? And there are many design details that I need to discuss with everyone. You keep preventing me from going out, how am I supposed to work?" Joyce raised her voice. "And I have already fully recovered, full of energy. You insist on keeping me at home. It's not like I'm in prison. Following the confinement practices should depend on individual circumstances. It's not necessary to count the days, waiting for the full 30 days to be over."

"I haven't been counting the days, you need to rest. Even at home, you're not at ease, taking care of Wilson and Cullen is tiring, and you should keep a bit of distance from outside matters." Luther grabbed Joyce's arm. "Even after the confinement period, I hope you still take good care of yourself."

"Jude was kidnapped before, luckily he returned safely, although I've already had him retire and come home. But that doesn't mean the people in the company are unaware of this incident. Everyone is anxious and I can't just stay at home. They will have more speculations. Do you understand? Grayson previously targeted JK Intelligence, where he also spent some time. Everyone knows him. After Jude's incident, I must boost everyone's morale. Whether I do more or less work is another matter. My presence or absence is what matters. Do you understand at all?" Joyce became anxious and struggled to free herself from Luther's grip.

"I understand, I'll let you go. But can it wait until the afternoon?" Luther said helplessly.

"Do you have something to do? Didn't you have the people from the wedding dress shop come to our house a few days ago? The wedding dress has already been chosen, and you don't need to bother me with the venue and other details." Joyce frowned.

Luther rubbed his forehead. How unreasonable that she was so indifferent to her own wedding. It really gave him a headache. He wanted to give her the grandest wedding to make up for past regrets. But she didn't care at all.

"At first, the wedding dress is custom-made. It will be completed tomorrow, and I will have them send it over. You need to try it on; adjustments are necessary if it doesn't fit." Luther emphasized, "My request isn't high, is it?"

"Okay. What else?" Joyce pouted.

"And the wedding ring..." Luther's words were interrupted by Joyce.

"Do we have to discuss this issue again? Just use the set of jewelry you made before. Isn't it good enough?" Joyce looked up at Luther, her gaze sparkling.

She had been kidnapped by criminals before, and they demanded a ransom of 5 billion, to be paid in diamonds. Luther had prepared diamonds worth 5 billion and successfully rescued her. The diamonds used for the ransom were given to Winston Jewelry Design, and a complete set of jewelry was custom-made. It was luxurious enough. Now, for the wedding, he actually wanted to make another set, which was unnecessary.

"That set of jewelry is indeed good. But the style was designed several years ago, and the diamond ring in the set is a bit small..." Luther furrowed his handsome brows. "After all, the diamonds used back then were for the ransom, and the largest one was only five carats; the rest were around three carats. They were almost enough for a complete set of jewelry, but the matching wedding ring is too small. The design back then was for an evening event, not suitable for a wedding."

Naturally, Luther was dissatisfied. Even if he was a billionaire, nowadays, even ordinary wealthy families would buy a 5-carat diamond ring for their wedding. How could he settle for a 5-carat ring for his long- awaited wedding?

"A 5-carat ring is still too small?" Joyce widened her eyes. "I tried wearing it a few days ago, and I already found it too heavy. Rings are meant to be worn, don't you know that it's inconvenient to do things with a big diamond? From a day-to-day perspective, even 5 carats would be too big. Alright, this is my final emphasis. I don't want anything else; just this set. If you say anything else, then I won't get married!"

"Luther..."

A stalemate for a moment.

"Fine, it will be as you wish. I won't bring it up again." Luther, feeling helpless, had to hug Joyce tightly and soothe her in a gentle voice. Regardless of the situation, she had already given in by agreeing to the wedding, and he couldn't push her any further. If the ring was a bit small, it would have to do.

"I will handle the rest. You don't need to worry. By the way," Luther paused, "this morning, my mom and my sister will come to see you and the kids, along with my brother-in-law. Yehan went to the airport to pick them up."

"Oh." Joyce was startled for a moment.

It had been a long time since she had seen Shelly and Jacqueline.

"If you don't want to see them, you don't have to force it. I can tell them to go back directly because they only told me before they got on the plane." Luther held Joyce's hand. His mother already knew that Joyce had given birth to twins and had been wanting to visit, but he hesitated and didn't agree until Shelly persuaded him. After all, his mother suffered from Alzheimer's, and she didn't have many days left to remember things. That was why he agreed.

This time, Jacqueline and Shelly would stay until after the wedding.

Joyce glared at Luther, "What are you thinking? Am I such a petty person? I was thinking earlier, they haven't returned to the country. Is your mother still undergoing treatment? How is she? Is her condition under control?"

Luther shook his head, "Alzheimer's is irreversible. My mother's condition has developed quite rapidly. I can't say it's under control, only that it's been delayed. Fortunately, the treatment effect is still good, and she can still recognize most of the people around her."

"That's good! When Shelly took her away, it was for better treatment," Joyce nodded. "When will they arrive? I'll ask my mom to arrange for a get-together at noon. It's a coincidence that my mom will leave for the Capital tonight, so before she leaves, they can meet. It's been a long time since they've seen each other."

"Okay, no need for any special preparations. We're all family." Luther held Joyce in his arms. "Don't move, let me hold you for a little longer. We won't have any time alone once guests arrive. Your mind is always on the kids, and it's hard for me to have a conversation with you."

"How is that possible? Clearly, you're the one taking up most of the time." Joyce rolled her eyes in disbelief. What a shameless man!
