The Schnabel and Pock families were set for a winter wondend wedding!
It was a significant day for Noe and Palmer, marking their first meeting on the border. It wasn''t just a matter of life and death salvation; it was choosing each other, bing family in the truest sense.
Palmer took it upon himself to transform one of the Pock Group''s inds into a fairy-tale extravaganza for their wedding venue.
In the garden, three formally dressed munchkins were squatting on the ground.
La, with a flower crown perched atop her head, touched her chin, "Grandma said today''s a big day for auntie and uncle, told us to behave. But is this really okay?"
La dered, "But no worries, if something goes wrong, I''ll just say it was you two, not me. Grandma will definitely scold you guys over me."
Daren retorted angrily, "Why should it be like that? Just because you''re the youngest?"
"It''s because I''m the prettiest."
From birth, La''s beauty was the talk of the maternity ward. Her rosy, translucent cheeks, a nose high and mighty even in her infancy, and those dewy, big eyes fringed with longshes were a sight the nursery had never seen before!
Beckett even worried La''s beauty was a symptom of Kabuki syndrome!
They flew in an international team of specialists who, after several days, confirmed La was simply naturally stunning.
With her looks, La had her way in both the Schnabel and the neighboring Pock households.
Upon seeing La, ra was smitten, immediately deciding she wanted a child too.
"The government''s encouraging it, right? I''ll take this one. You guys go have another! La''s going to hang with me from now on!"
La insisted, "Besides, this is all for Aunt ra''s good! I saw that man earlier looking fine. Testing him out is the least we can do, right?"
As the eldest among the kids, Daren felt the n was a bit shaky.
Ophelia, growing impatient at his hesitation, countered, "You men are always so wishy-washy. Didn''t you see Gavin Vaughn over there? If things go south, we''ll just me Gavin! I''ll distract him, and you guys go test out that handsome man."
With that, Ophelia adjusted her princess dress and skipped towards Gavin, now a preteen heartthrob.
Seizing the moment, La darted towards their predetermined target.
She crashed into him, crying out, only to be caught in a gentle embrace, his voice as soothing as a spring breeze.
"My little princess, are you alright? Running around all by yourself, did you lose your family?"
Up close, La whispered, "No stic surgery, polite... good-looking..."
"What was that? Whose child are you?"
La pointed towards ra in the crowd, "There! My aunt''s over there!"
"Let me take you to her. And don''t run off again."
Carrying La through the crowd, she started shouting for ra from afar.
Seeing La, ra breathed a sigh of relief, scolding as she took her, "Are you out of your mind running off like that? Where are your brother and sister?"
"Sis went to find Gavin, and brother said I was in the way and left me behind."
Daren, lurking nearby, thought, "..."
Suddenly, his back felt a phantom pain!
"Auntie, I''m here. My sister ran too fast, and I couldn''t keep up."
Once assured they were all safe, ra finally rxed.
With so many guests today, she was genuinely worried these little rascals had ventured into the sea to feed the sharks!
Turning to the man who had been standing by with a gentle smile, ra remembered to express her gratitude.
"Thank you so much. These little tyrants are quite the handful. I appreciate you bringing them back!"
"Ms. Schnabel, it was nothing."
"You know who I am?"
The man smiled warmly, "Ms. Schnabel has been a topic of discussion for her contributions to the scientificmunity. I, too, am somewhat in the same field, though my focus is on mathematics. I''m Colin, a Penn math department graduate."
ra nodded, "I''ve heard your name, the recent champion of the international mathpetition. Surprising someone so young."
Colin modestly replied, "Ms. Schnabel, you''re younger than I imagined."
Holding La and guiding Daren, ra excused herself, "The wedding is about to start. Please, excuse us."
"As you wish."
As they headed to the main wedding venue, La, resting on ra''s shoulder, winked at Colin.
Colin, left standing there, couldn''t help butugh.
This kid, quite the character!
La, clinging to ra''s neck, asked in her sweet, milky voice, "Auntie, what do you think about that man? He''s so handsome!" "There are plenty of good-looking people out there."
"But not many who are good-looking and good at math. Mom said everything can lie, but math can''t. If you don''t know it, you just don''t."
Daren nodded in agreement, "Yeah, my mom looked at that math paper once and then dered English was her forte."
Thoseplex mathematical codes, Malvina could sleep through them!
Let alone solve any.
La asked, "What''s your mom good at?"
Daren quickly answered, "Sleeping and yelling at my dad. Fighting''s not bad either. Last time I got bullied at school, mom was so fierce, made them howl."
To avoid drawing too much
attention the Schnabel kids
attended regr schools. Someone
mistook Daren for amoner due to his non-branded clothes and bullied him!
Even a teacher led the torment, leaving Daren covered in glue.
Furious, Malvina stormed the school with members of the Shadow Dragon Society, causing the administration to think they''d crossed the mafia!
To Malvina''s credit, shended a few solid ps on those negligent teachers and bullying parents, with the kids crying out in fright by their side.
Ulrich raced over, and it was only then that the school''s administration realized they had kicked a ho''s nest. Apologies came flying left and right on the spot.
Malvina, holding Daren''s hand, asked earnestly, "Honey, do you forgive them?"
"Can I choose not to?"
"Of course, you can!"
The very next day, Malvina had Daren transferred to another school, leaving Ulrich to deal with the fallout!
In Daren''s eyes, his mom was nothing short of a superhero.
So what if he wasn''t good at math!N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
After all, his aunt knew everything under the sun!
La winked and nudged ra yfully.
"Aunt ra, if you don''t start dating, grandma said she''s going to kick you out this year."
"It''s okay, I''ve got plenty of moms. If grandma doesn''t want me, I''ll just find a new mom."
La gasped, "What? You can do that?"
Sienna''s annual threats to kick ra out were just a new tactic to get her to go on blind dates.
ra just brushed it off and moved on!
"You kids, stop meddling in your aunt''s love life."
"Oh... okay, but does auntie have someone she likes? A guy or a girl? Are they cute?"
ra was exasperated with this gossip-hungry kid!
How her calm and genteel friends, Beckett and Darcy, ended up with such a lively child was beyond her!
ra sighed, "No such luck! When I do find someone, you''ll be the first to know, okay, troublemaker?"
"Pinky promise! But that guy earlier looked pretty good!"
"Zip it, chatterbox."
Just as ra got backstage, she saw Tristan pacing anxiously.
"What''s going on here? My daughter''s wedding is about to start, and now you''re telling me the
custom sculpture won''t make it t
What''s wrong with your deliverypany? What? You sent a block of raw marble? How am I supposed to carve something now!
Tristan was fuming, stamping his foot in frustration.
What good was a block of marble at this time?
Hearing themotion, Noe emerged from the makeup room, lifting the curtain with a calm gaze.
The priceless wedding dress she wore, adorned withyers of tulle and diamonds, along with her elegant makeup, made Noe look
like a princess straight out of a castle!
Daren and La eximed, “Wow, Auntie looks stunning!"
Noe looked at Tristan, then casually set her veil aside and flexed her wrists.
"It''s okay, dad. It''s just a sculpture. I''ve got this."
