261 Marriage (Part II)



"Charles! You better take care of my sister nicely."

Tristian was already drunk before the banquet had truly begun. Reina and I sat side by side for obvious reasons.

Reina's mother, father, and brother sat with us, along with the other four girls.

"Honey, I'm so happy for you." Jennifer held my wife tightly, congratulating her. My father-in-law did the same, and our atmosphere was overly optimistic.

"Mom..." Reina shared the same sentiment but was too shy to voice it.

The rest of us chuckled while watching this interaction, which made Reina redder by the second.

The banquette was about to begin, and those interested in the food would wonder what a prestigious family like ours would bring.

"Charles. When could we expect grandkids?" It didn't take long before Jennifer asked.

Now that we were married, those expectations were added. At most, I could give my girls a child by the end of the year, but I didn't know how to say those words.

"We will do our best." Those are the words I chose.

"Great! I look forward to seeing them. With you two, those children would look so cute!"

After talking with Reina's family, the food arrived. The staff from Reina's family side had brought us our meal.

The first thing everyone had was appetizers. Agnus had hand-picked all the ingredients and given them to the chefs to use.

After days of practicing with those high-class ingredients, the chef assembled a palatable plate worthy of this event.

When the staff brought the food, I checked the guests' reactions. I smirked, seeing the confused expression of everyone and knowing that none of them knew what these foods were.

Not knowing what's in the food, some hesitate to take the first bite. The ascetic nature of the food wasn't something that the human eye would find normal. When the first person takes the first bite, that is when the feast begins.

Since no one dared to make my event awkward, someone eventually took the first bite. One would think his expressions were exaggerated.

It was a child who found the food enjoyable. The child's eyes glowed, and he was in pure bliss once he took the first bite. I smiled at this sight, knowing more would come.

The banquet became loud once everyone tasted the food. Some might even call it divine. After all of this, I wouldn't be surprised if the guest would want to buy these foods from Reina's family.

"The food your friend brought, is it possible for us to purchase these foods?" Matthew had said once he took his bite.

"I can ask." Agnus wouldn't mind if I asked for a supply for the Burgess and my lovers.

Taking a bite of my food, I can say it was one of the best things I have tasted. I wonder how much taste I have ruined. Not like it mattered. I didn't know most of the guests, so that had nothing to do with me.

Once the appetizer was finished, it was time for the main meal. The main dish was something everyone looked forward to since the appetizer was already great.

"Charles! Let's drink!" Tristian held a glass of wine brought by Agnus high up.

Tristian was supposed to drink only a mouthful but got addicted to the test. Did I awaken something inside Tristian with these drinks?

Since he is now my brother-in-law, it was rude to reject his offer. Once Tristian poured wine into my glass, we tapped our glasses together.

"Cheers!"

Matthew and Jennifer seemed to want to say something to Tristian, but since today was our big day, letting him get loose shouldn't be a problem.

"Mother-in-law, father-in-law, Reina, and I should check in with the other guest. I hope these girls will be great company."

Agnus and the people who helped with this wedding/banquet needed to be thanked. It would be rude not to talk to them about how much help they have given. The two understood what we would do and said their goodbyes along with the girls.

"Let's go meet our guest." I held Reina's arms as we left. Reina wanted to be more intimate and had latched on fully to my arms.

Walking around the banquet, we greeted all the guests we saw and asked how they were doing.

No one could complain about how good the reception and the food were. This moment was also the best place to make connections for rich people.

Finally, we met Agnus along with the members of the IUC. I then glanced at Linsey, and her eyes darted away from me. I didn't think we would do it with Nene and Claire. Not to mention she was a virgin a week ago. I could see why she was embarrassed to look at me.

"Agnus, everyone. I hope you enjoyed attending our wedding."

"This world's customs are interesting. It's wonderful to experience something new, so I'm glad I could enjoy this occasion. I also want to congratulate you on your marriage."

"Thank you." Reina politely said this as everyone from the IUC congratulated us.

I also thanked the IUC for the supplies. Without them, the banquet wouldn't have been this successful.

Talking to Agnus was refreshing when I had to talk to random strangers. Unfortunately, we had little time, as I had to greet all the guests.

Eventually, the banquet ended, and most guests had a great time. The venue wasn't closed, and anyone could stay and party for the night. Reina and I had already left, and we returned to our house. It would just be us two alone.

A wedding night was already planned for us, and we had agreed to it wholeheartedly. We entered our room and stared into each other's eyes.

"Charles. Thank you for putting a lot of effort into this occasion. I know you're not interested in these events, but it warms my heart for you to do this much." Her eyes glistened as she stared at me.

With the night being young, it was time for our final vow of the night.
