I Became the Childhood Friend of the Northern Duchess - Chapter 238
238 – Bearing Fruit (Complete)
Two months passed literally in the blink of an eye.
While hearing congratulations in advance from friends who had received the wedding invitation, the couple had to spend a busy day with various tasks such as deciding on wedding ceremonies and gifts.
On the day of the wedding, guests lined up to fill the castle and entered.
This was partly because the Robeheim family’s prestige was so great, but also because there were many people close to Edgar who had become close to him after the last major coup, so they were all invited.
“Did I sing too much?”
Edgar muttered in a humble tone as he looked out the window at the guests still lining up.
The number of people invited by the Robeheim family must have been quite large, but as the number of guests he invited separately increased, the number of guests ended up being too many.
“It’s good to have a lot.”
From noble mtl dot come
Ariel, who was sitting on a chair next to him and looking out the window, smiled and secretly expressed her opinion.
Originally, it was taboo for the husband-to-be to meet his wife in advance on the day of the wedding ceremony, but this was not the case for these two.
In the first place, as soon as he changed into his bridal gown, Ariel insisted that he show this appearance to him as soon as possible, so he came here.
“Okay? “I thought you didn’t like noise.”
“That’s right. But it’s better to be congratulated by as many people as possible, right?”
“Well.”
It comes to fruition on the happiest day of your life, receiving the blessings of the most people.
I thought it was probably everyone’s dream.
“Miss, Lady Sylvia has arrived.”
I hope the conversation between the two continues.
Shuri, who was standing next to him, slowly approached and announced the presence of a visitor.
“Yes, I’ll be there soon.”
Ariel nodded with joy at the familiar name.
This is a visit from a friend who is expected to have a wedding ceremony sometime next year.
I was sure she would be envious, so I decided to pick on her as much as I wanted today.
Clutter.
Her door opened and Sylvia entered her bridal waiting room, her arms spread wide, but she stopped as she approached Ariel.
“Ariel, I’m here… Wow!”
“Why, what’s wrong?”
Ariel was momentarily taken aback by the stronger reaction than she expected.
You probably didn’t come to your friend’s wedding with at least a glass of alcohol. Suddenly a thought occurred to me.
“So pretty! “Where did you get this dress?”
It wasn’t the slouchy dress you often see, but it was more body-hugging, and the decorations on every single hem of the skirt were impressive.
It went well with Ariel’s somewhat edgy appearance, so Sylvia looked around her dress with sparkling eyes.
It was her favorite dress she had ever seen.
“I asked my family’s tailor to tailor it for me. “The tailor was dissatisfied because the time was a bit tight.”
“With this? “You seem to be a perfectionist.”
“That’s my opinion too.”
At least in the eyes of two people, it was difficult to find fault with it.
This means that the Robeheim family’s tailor is a great man who hates compromise just as much as the lord of the castle.
“Oh, Hagel. “It’s been a while.”
Meanwhile, Edgar also gently raised his hand towards his friend who came in late.
Since it was a bride’s waiting room, Hagel, a man, looked at me a little as he came in, and only when he saw a happy face did he come up and say hello.
“You really were here, Edgar. I was so tired of Sylvia begging me to come with her because she was sure you would be here too…”
“It’s not new, is it?”
“That is correct.”
Hagel smiled bitterly at his friend, who shrugged his shoulders and responded indifferently.
Well, if you think about it, the two of them were always together, just like the thread follows where the needle goes.
Even if there is an unwritten rule on the day of the wedding, it would not be an exception.
“Anyway, congratulations. After receiving the wedding invitation this time, Sylvia seemed to notice it for a while…”
“Did something happen?”
“I think the time we spent as lovers was longer. I thought it was time for the story to come out.”
“Ah…”
Only then did Edgar realize what hardship Hagel had gone through.
From Sylvia’s point of view, Ariel, who became her lover later than her, is already getting married, so she must have been cute and asked when she would get married.
“Have you thought about it?”
“Yes, actually, we had a meeting last week. The date will be about half a year later…”
The weather will be just warm then, so it can be said to be a very good choice.
The wedding ceremony of the two people proceeded very quickly, but since they usually leave that much time, it wasn’t too slow.
Edgar immediately extended his hand and congratulated him on his good fortune.
“Congratulations. “Today is a happy birthday.”
“Thank you. “I want to give the wedding invitation to the two of you first, so I’ll make sure to come and deliver it when the time comes.”
“That’s a happy thing to say.”
Being the first to receive a wedding invitation may not seem meaningful at first glance, but it means that you are someone who has left a lot of traces in the other person’s life.
As a friend, nothing could make him happier, so Edgar smiled brightly and waved his joined hands.
“Master, you should go quickly…” ” …”
At that moment, Ellie, who could not hide her nervousness as she kept looking at her watch her, quietly approached her and spoke to her.
She is about to finish preparing for the ceremony, so she has to move.
“Has it happened already?”
“Yes, Your Highness should go with us…” ” ” …”
“I’ll take you. “You wait here with Shuri.”
Normally, the groom would have gone first and prepared to enter, but since the wedding ceremony for these two was a little different, they had to go together.
When Edgar extended his hand to signal Ariel to stand up, she only exchanged a glance and immediately put her hand on her side and carefully stood up from her seat her her her her.
“Isn’t it uncomfortable to walk?”
“This is okay. “It’s more difficult to wear clothes for formal occasions.”
“That’s a bit heavy.”
It did not refer to a dress, but to a cloak with the mark of the Robeheim family and a uniform that clog to the body.
For simple banquets, it is usually replaced with a dress, but there are times when it is unavoidable and Ariel is busy voicing her dissatisfaction.
“Cheer up, Ariel. “We’ll be watching from the guest room.”
“Edgar will be her wife now, so please take good care of her.”
Sylvia and Hagel each gave a well-wishes to the two people leaving the room.
To this, they responded with silent smiles and left the bride’s waiting room.
Today’s wedding ceremony will be held outdoors.
There were so many guests that even Robeheim Castle, no matter how large it was, did not have enough space to accommodate all of them. Of course, it was also because of Ariel’s personal desires of hers.
“You’re here. How are you feeling? “Aren’t you nervous?”
“Ariel, your clothes are askew. “Just stand still for a moment.”
When they finally arrived at the place where the ceremony would be held, the parents of both families who had arrived first and were waiting welcomed the couple.
The way Yulken and Katria took care of their children’s significant other, rather than their own children, clearly showed the relationship between the two families.
“Great. Instead of feeling nervous, I just want to get the ceremony done quickly.”
“Hehe, a man should definitely do that.”
As Yulken smiled in satisfaction at Edgar’s bold answer, Helene, who was watching, approached and spoke softly with her playful smile.
“Oh my, when you say that, you were actually shaking while holding my hand on our wedding day. “Is it unseemly to pretend to be strong in front of your son-in-law?”
“K-huh. “When did I do that?”
I burst out laughing at his actions of clearing his throat and avoiding eye contact.
It was a somewhat surprising fact. How could it be that Yulken of the world was shaking while holding his wife’s hand on the wedding day?
Perhaps this also means that the wedding ceremony was considered very important.
“Anyway, it’s unusual. “It is my first time seeing a wedding ceremony where the bride and groom enter together.”
Lancel, who had heard about the process of today’s ceremony, stroked his chin and said that it was interesting.
In fact, it was because of this that the two people left the waiting room together.
Originally, the groom entered the ceremony hall first, and the bride-to-be followed her, escorted by her father.
In contrast, today the two will enter the ceremony hall together and walk side by side to the front of the podium.
“Because it was Ariel’s request. I thought it would be fun, so I agreed.”
At first, it was scheduled to be held in a normal way.
However, Ariel, who did not know much about the wedding process, strongly protested after hearing this news.
It was just a part of her wedding ceremony that didn’t have any special meaning, but it was quite different from what she had ever dreamed of.
She had wanted to follow Edgar ahead of her since her childhood, and only now was she able to walk her path along the same lines, on equal footing.
However, on the day of the new beginning, Edgar actually entered the ceremony hall first.
That was something Ariel could not overlook.
That’s why she suggested to Edgar that they go in together, and when she heard the reason, she thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea, so she agreed.
In a way, it could be seen as a display of Ariel’s unique competitive spirit
Even on the day of this important wedding ceremony.
“I think it’s good because it’s like you. I hope you do well. And…”
Helen paused for a moment, then moved closer and hugged the two together.
It was quite a task to hold Edgar, who was now an adult, and Ariel, who had grown bigger than her, all at once, but she actually liked this feeling even more.
When I was young, I was a child who came into the skirt with me.
Now that those children have grown up, they have become a couple who will promise to spend their whole lives together.
I was overflowing with emotions, but I managed to hold back. Because the main characters of today’s ceremony are two people.
“Thank you. Both of them.”
“… “My mother too.”
“We were truly grateful.”
As Helen separated the two and smiled, one of the bells decorated outside let out a soft sound.
A signal for all guests to take their seats as the ceremony will now begin.
From here on, it’s up to just the two of us.
Soon, a man standing next to the podium to preside over the ceremony announced the opening of the ceremony.
It was none other than Leonel, Edgar’s best friend and subordinate colleague.
“Let’s go, Ed.”
“Okay.”
Following the guidance of the workers standing on both sides, the two took their first steps together.
Carefully, one step at a time.
The road, which normally would have taken just ten steps, felt very long.
Following Yulken’s guidance, the atmosphere was made quite cheerful.
The guests gave their blessings to the couple to the point where it felt a bit noisy, and voices of envy for the two people grew louder, calling them good-looking men and fairies.
The wedding ceremony itself was not much different from the ordinary one everyone knew.
That means that the promised time has finally arrived soon.
Edgar smiled as he saw Ariel raising her cute toes in front of him.
Red lips that stand out anytime and anywhere, even when not wearing bridal makeup.
Why do those lips that always pout like a duck asking for a kiss look so attractive today?
“Now, the bride and groom kiss their vows…”
With the guidance of her host, Edgar lowered her head slightly and pressed his lips to hers.
How many seconds did it stay like that?
As soon as Ariel’s hand her quietly wrapped around Edgar’s back her, he separated his lips her from her.
“Ah…”
“Foot.”
For Ariel, who was still lacking, how obnoxious that smile was.
It is clear that he quit after finding out. When that thought came into his head, Ariel stretched out his hand as if there was nothing left to look at.
“Wow… ?”
‘Wherever you want.’
Then, he pulled his tie, brought his face closer, stood up with more force than before, and hugged his neck her.
For a scene to be shown in front of everyone at a wedding ceremony, they ended up sharing a pretty passionate kiss.
Eventually, their lips parted again, but Ariel’s cheeks did not have the same blush as before.
Because I was no longer ashamed of such a bold action.
Now they are a married couple, and there is nothing to hold back.
“I love you, Ed.”
“… Me too.”
Edgar hugged her as he heard her bold confession as the ruler of the North.
Although she is now a mature woman, in his mind, Ariel Loveheim will remain a prim princess with a cute, if disingenuous, attitude.
Forever.
