Chapter 771 My Delightful Faye
Rebecca's WhatsApp message brought a sense of delight.
Faye imagined the scene and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The next day.
Faye was in a daze as she slept when she felt some movement on the bed beside her.
Faye furrowed her brows and opened her eyes, "What time is it?"
Colin leaned down and kissed Faye's forehead. He said, "It's eight o'clock. It's weekend, so you can sleep in."
"Are you going to the office?"
Colin used his hand to brush aside the strands of hair on Faye's forehead and answered, "Today, someone from the bridal shop is coming to deliver sample dresses. They're downstairs now, and I'm going to check it out."
Faye blinked and asked, "Was today the day we scheduled before?"
Colin teased, "Ms. Nash, can you spare a little thought for your lifelong affair? I didn't ask for much. Just give it about a tenth of the attention you give to your work."
Faye reached out to pull the blanket over herself and mumbled, "I'm sorry."
Colin chuckled softly, "It's rare to see the super-capable Ms. Nash apologize for anything."
Faye playfully taunted, "It's rare to see the famous Mr. Farrell actually eager to be tied down."
Colin raised his eyebrow and said, "Are you trying to challenge me?"
Faye hid her entire face under the blanket, revealing her eyes, which were curved with a clear sense of amusement, "Do you want me to go down as well?"
Colin's slender fingers toyed with Faye's hair, intertwined with the strands, and replied, "No need, you can sleep a little longer if you're tired."
"Are you sure you don't need me to?"
Colin countered with a question, "Do you want to go down and take a look?"
After a moment of eye contact, Colin's voice deepened with a smile, "I'll go down first, you can come down after you're done freshening up."
Faye agreed with a smile, "Alright."
After Faye finished her morning routine, she went downstairs. The manager of the bridal shop was introducing a few wedding gowns to Colin.
Colin had changed into a shirt and suit pants before he came down. He left the collar of the black shirt slightly open and the hem untucked from the pants, which gave him a casual yet lazy appearance.
Faye was staring at Colin absentmindedly when Cindy, the housekeeper noticed her. She called out, "Mrs. Farrell, you're awake. What would you like for breakfast?"
Faye snapped back to reality, her smile widening as she replied, "Anything will do."
As Faye's words trailed off, Colin turned his gaze towards her. He was smiling happily while he said, "Honey, come over and see which one you like."
Faye came down the stairs. When she reached Colin, he reached out and pulled her into his arms by her waist.
Faye earnestly looked at the wedding gowns. Colin leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "Honey, you are finally here. Someone has their eyes on your husband."
Faye looked up and felt confused, "Huh?"
As Faye finished speaking, Colin discreetly slipped a business card into her hand.
Faye didn't look at it immediately. She held the card and squeezed it, thinking some staff member attempted to give it to her privately. "Mr. Farrell's charm is as strong as ever."
"Charm remains, but with a growing intention."
Faye playfully added, "I hope Mr. Farrell will uphold his marital duties in the days to come."
Colin smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Madam Farrell."
Engaged in their private banter, the two young store assistants exchanged a glance, unable to hide their excitement.
Since Faye had expressed a desire for a traditional wedding, the gowns brought today were all of that style.
After selecting a few pieces, Faye ultimately chose a phoenix-embroidered wedding gown.
Once Faye had made her choice, she turned to ask for Colin's opinion, "How does it look?"
"Not bad," Colin nodded with a light smile, his hands were in his pockets as he looked at Faye. "If you like it, we will pick this one?"
"Yes, this one."
Colin continued, "There are also the outfits for the toasting ceremony. You have to choose those as well."
Faye scanned the options and selected two that she preferred.
After choosing the wedding gowns, Cindy escorted the representatives from the bridal shop out.
At Colin said those words "father-in-law", Abbot's voice turned cold and resentful, "Don't bring that up."
"Abbot, you don't sound like you're asking for help with that tone."
Abbot sounded somewhat desperate and said, "I am sorry."
Colin's voice deepened with amusement and said, "What? Speak louder, I didn't hear you."
"I am sorry, okay? Stop wasting time, come over quickly. If you don't come soon, I'll go crazy."
After Abbot finished speaking, knocking sounds could be heard at the end of his call.
Abbot seemed to get shocked and he hung up the phone.
Hearing the busy tone on his phone, Colin chuckled softly and looked at Faye, "I think we might need to make a trip to the Blacks' villa."
Faye looked up and asked, "Abbot's call?"
Colin slipped his phone into his pocket and answered, "Yes, he mentioned there's some situation on his end, and if I don't go, he'll go crazy."
When Colin finished speaking, Faye couldn't help but laugh, "It's probably related to Rebecca's father."
Colin continued, "Most likely."
An hour later, Colin and Faye arrived at the Blacks' villa.
Exiting the car, Colin went to the trunk and pulled out a gift he had prepared in advance, and said, "Let's go."
Faye's fingertips, hanging by her side, curled slightly. She raised her hand and looped it through Colin's arm.
Seeing that, Colin turned his head to look at Faye.
Faye didn't say anything and her ears slightly reddened.
Collin lowered his head and suddenly smiled, "Can we consider this as indirectly meeting the parents too?"
Faye didn't hesitate at all and said, "Yes. Mr. Black and Mrs. Black have always been very kind to me. In those times when I was in school, they often had Rebecca bring me snacks. Occasionally on weekends, they would prepare dishes that I liked. They even bought me clothes when they were shopping for Rebecca..."
Faye spoke in a casual tone, but Colin's heart seemed to tighten as he listened.
With both hands holding items, Colin lowered his head and planted a kiss on Jiang Ying's forehead, "My delightful Faye."
