Chapter 1693
Taya couldn't help but laugh when she remembered Harper's speechless expression after being teased by the two robots. "Honey, why can't the robots developed by your company be a little more attractive?" she asked.
As Taya spoke, Robot Number 77 was bowing and nodding to Griffon. "Welcome, welcome, welcome..." it began, but Griffon interrupted and shut it off. The robot's mouth was wide open, revealing a jumble of messy wires.
Upon seeing this, Griffon's expression turned serious. "Preston didn't even bother to properly construct the basic structure because he was in a rush. Yet, he still had the audacity to put the Knight' Group label on it."
Taya thought it was ugly on the outside, while Griffon believed the internal structure wasn't well-made. They didn't see eye to eye on this, so Taya didn't say anything. Instead, she just took his arm and said, "Well then, honey, you should make another version of yourself."
Griffon looked back at Taya and asked, "Why?"
Taya stood on her tiptoes and playfully poked his cheek. "Because I also want a husband who bends over and welcomes me every day..."
Griffon chuckled affectionately, "If I were to make one, I would make it so that even you wouldn't recognize me."
Taya didn't think he could actually do it, so she casually replied, "Okay."
At that moment, the emcee took the stage and announced that the sea mating ceremony was about to begin. The guests were instructed to take their seats and wait for the bride and groom to make their entrance.
After telling Griffon that she was going to find Harper, Taya turned and headed towards the dressing room. Harper was sitting in front of the mirror, continuously taking deep breaths in an attempt to calm her nerves.
Seeing this scene, the guests were momentarily stunned, but then burst into laughter.
The mating ceremony had a few hiccups in the beginning, but overall, it went smoothly. It was like the journey Harper and Preston had taken together, filled with twists and turns, but with a good outcome.
The media couldn't enter the mating ceremony venue, but they had taken some footage of the ship before the ceremony. It had already made headlines, and people online were discussing it.
The initial public opinion was that as long as someone is attractive enough, even an orphan can mate into a wealthy pack. Then, someone revealed that Harper had been unmated before, leading the public opinion to shift to the idea that as long as someone is scheming enough, even a unmated person can mate into a wealthy pack.
The public opinion wasn't favorable, but Preston seemed prepared. When everyone was attacking and insulting Harper on Twitter, he posted a timed message: "[We've been together for three years. I proposed to her and spent two years trying to make her mate me. Now, I finally succeeded. Next, I will spend a lifetime trying to convince her to spend the rest of her life with me.]"
