Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 622: Double Wedding



Chapter 622: Double Wedding

Arna's face immediately fell witnessing Eva's attitude. Isaac and Ivan weren't expecting such a strong reaction from Eva.

Eva stood akimbo squinting her eyes at Arna, "From when did you start visiting me with the flowers? Huh?" She sounded grim and pointed to Isaac, "He is old so you can get him the flowers." Again standing back in akimbo, "If you dare get me flowers, I will not let you step inside my home. Do you get that?" 

Ignoring that he was the old man she mentioned, Isaac breathed a long deep sigh of relief. Eva was angry at the bouquet, not at Arna. It was a great relief.

The frown on Ivan's forehead smoothened slowly and his tight fist freed. He almost had a mini heart attack there. 

Eva who had watched Arna nervous had melted down realizing her dissatisfaction was nothing in front of what Arna had gone through and Arna's nervousness was deeper than her emotions. 

If the start of their new relationship stands in the fake emotions of acceptance, Eva knows it won't be strong enough and it will create many misunderstandings between them. So Eva thought she should just be the same, forgetting the past years. 

Eva wanted a new beginning with Arna but with the same mischievousness, they had before. She wished to be a cool mother-in-law instead of boring or strict. 

Arna was still shocked to digest all the words of Eva so quickly. She stared at Eva for a few seconds before looking at Isaac who softly smiled at her to relax her nerves.

Then Arna was able to think Eva wasn't angry with her but the formalities. "I- I" She didn't apologize, that would be another formality. So she relaxed quickly and whined, "Aunt Eva, you scared me." Saying it, Arna went ahead and hugged Eva.

Her stiff shoulders relaxed when Eva wrapped her hands as she gently rubbed Arna's back. "This is better." Eva smiled as her eyes brushed over her son.

Eva realized her son was angered for her brief reaction that scared Arna. Pulling Arna to her side, "You brat, if you want my little goddess, you better behave. What's with your look?" Eva threatened Ivan.

Ivan: "..."

He didn't know if he should be happy that Eva was treating Arna the same as before or speechless at his mother.

Arna giggled and was very much touched Eva was able to forgive her and accept her wholeheartedly. She knew Eva won't act to keep anybody happy. She was straight with her emotions.

Arna greeted Isaac as they side hugged, "Uncle Isaac!!"

Eva took the banquet and gently hit the girl again, "You want my son and you are calling us Aunt and Uncle."

Just like that, Eva and Arna were quick to get along. They had dinner, discussed when the Morgan family could visit the Ross family and plan the wedding. Ivan and Isaac were mute most of the time hearing them go on with the pajama party and girls bachelors party casting the men away.

It was around eleven when Ivan and Isaac separated two tipsy women when they were yawning but still kept on talking in excitement.

----

Ivan was on the way to drop Arna when she was mumbling in a half-asleep state. He had to stop the car to hear her clearly.

"... Will you wait please you angry"

"Snow!!" Ivan tried to wake her up as he asked, "Snow, what should I wait for? Snow"

Snow smiled holding his hand that was brushing away her hair from covering her face, "Ivaaan Could we wait for Bro and Noor?" Her voice slurred. 

Ivan was confused why she wanted to wait for Arsh and Noor so he remained silent for her to continue.

"C-could we have a double w-wedding?... P-please" She continued to mumble but Ivan wasn't able to make out. Soon she slipped into a deep slumber snuggling her face against his warm palm.

Ivan wasn't sure about the double wedding she wished for. Arsh and Noor were different and Noor won't be able to get along with Arsh so quickly. They weren't even sure if Noor would even accept Arsh or how many days or months it might take.

He decided to speak with Arna when she is sober and drove the car to the Morgan mansion. 

------

Everyone was asleep. Ivan laid Arna on her bed, he was tucking her in when he sensed Arsh standing at the door. If he hadn't known Arsh, he would have misunderstood Arsh as he was keeping an eye on them.

"What did Aunt Eva say?" Arsh questioned unemotionally when Ivan closed the room door behind him.

"They were planning the wedding, so what do you think?" Ivan asked back while they went downstairs. However, there was no happiness that should have brightened his face.

Arsh breathed in relief, happy that Arna and Ivan's life smoothened. Before he could ask more about the details, Ivan revealed another piece of news, "Snow wants a double wedding."

Arsh halted hearing it. 'Double Wedding' he knew it's his wedding. Even though Noor's reaction was pretty positive, she was very slow. Arsh didn't like Arna wishing to have a double wedding. That meant a long wait. 

Arsh glanced at Ivan, who had blankness on his face. It was hard to say if Ivan was fine with it or dissatisfied. Arsh didn't want to be the direct or indirect reason for any misunderstanding or difference in opinion between the couple who longed to be with each other for so many years.

Arsh was displeased with Arna's wish. He couldn't understand why she got such a wish out of nowhere. He wanted to say he would talk to Arna but Ivan was quick to continue, "I will talk to her tomorrow. Leave us, what about you and Noor? How is Noor doing?" They started walking again.

Arsh didn't speak about him and Noor other than brushing it off, "You know Noor."

Ivan knew Arsh too started thinking about Arna's wish so he didn't bug Arsh much. "Alright, good night, then." Ivan patted Arsh's arm before he stepped out of the mansion.

Rubbing his forehead, Arsh was going upstairs thinking about a new issue when a hand landed on his arm as he heard, "Nemo? What's wrong? Do you need coffee?"

"Little Mom." Arsh looked at Roxy being worried about him, "No, I am alright."

Roxy could say, something was bothering Arsh, "What happened at the Ross villa? Is everything alright?" She had seen Ivan leave the mansion when she went to the kitchen to fetch water.

Arsh took the water bottle from Roxy's hand as they climbed the stairs. He gave a quick brief and continued, "I am thinking how to convince Snow. What do you think, Little Mom?"
