Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1067 It Is Time They Get Married

Instantly, Anna beamed with pleasure. Then, she patted Wendy's cheek gently as she smiled and said, "You have

been having fun away from home for the past few months. It's about time for you to come home and settle down

for a period of time. Besides, you are back just at the right time. Colton and Nicole are about to hold their wedding

soon. So, if you want to take another trip abroad, do it after you have attended their wedding. Alright?"

Wendy was slightly surprised as she didn't expect Colton and Nicole to hold their wedding so soon. So, she pursed

her lips and asked, "Really? Mom, when's the wedding?"

"I have selected a nice date next week. So, we still have about ten days left to get everything ready. Nicole, Colton,

what do you think?" Anna sought the couple's opinions while turning her attention to them.

Nicole lowered her head bashfully. Her cheeks were flushed crimson, and she kept playing with her fingers as she

kept mum on the matter.

Meanwhile, Colton, who stood beside Nicole, wrapped his arm around her waist and allowed her to lean against his

body before looking up at Anna and promptly replying, "Sure. Mom, we shall entrust all affairs of our wedding to

your capable hands."

Anna's eyes were filled with delight as she looked at Nicole, who had her head lowered in embarrassment. Then,

she asked again, "Nicole, what do you think?"

Nicole fluttered her eyes as she felt utterly touched by Anna's care for her. Then, she nodded and answered, "Mrs.

Gardner, I trust you."

"Wonderful. In that case, you guys should make time to go to the city hall and apply for a marriage license. As for

me, I will have to start delegating tasks for the wedding. Don't worry, Nicole. I will definitely ensure that you'll have

the wedding of your dreams," Anna said in gratification. There was a genuine smile on her face as she reached out

to hold Nicole's hand.

Nicole responded with a soft hum. Although she knew she and Colton would undoubtedly get married one day, it

was still somewhat challenging to restrain the overwhelming joy in her heart. She could feel her heart racing and

had a rather difficult time calming herself down.

"By the way, Nicole, where should Colton pick you up on your wedding day?" Anna asked out of the blue.

According to the traditional wedding custom in Goldwick, the groom would pick the bride up at her parent's house

on the wedding day. Unfortunately, Nicole's current status made it slightly difficult for the couple to carry out this

particular step.

Nicole looked down before saying, "My house will do. I have an apartment."

As Anna laid her gaze on Nicole's expression, she couldn't help but recall Siobhan's words. After a brief moment of

hesitation, Anna eventually said, "Nicole, I have discussed matters regarding your marriage with Madam Gould."

Anna's voice was as soft as the wind in reeds. It was evident that she was trying to be comforting as she tried her

best to avoid stepping on Nicole's emotional minefields.

Nevertheless, one couldn't blame Anna for her actions. After all, Siobhan was Nicole's biological mother. Meanwhile,

Nicole simply pursed her lips, and her face showed no signs of rejection.

Thus, Anna continued, "I just thought that since she is your biological mother… Madam Gould wishes for you to stay

in the Gould Residence. What… do you think?"

Just as Nicole was about to turn down that offer, an old and vigorous yet boisterous voice suddenly sounded by the

door. Although one could tell that the owner of the voice was an elder, it was still a voice filled with energy.

"Nicole, you're home. I immediately rushed over from the Gourd Residence after this young man from the Gardners

told me you are back." Rita walked in with a cane. She was practically glowing with health.

Regardless, Nicole suppressed a well of complicated emotions when she caught sight of Siobhan walking by Rita's

side.

Nicole immediately bit back the words that just rose to her lips. Instead, she looked at Rita, nodded, and said, "Yes,

I'm back, Old Mrs. Gould."

Rita stepped forward and came to Nicole's side. Then, she reached out to grab Nicole's hand and exclaimed

enthusiastically, "I heard you are going to marry this young man."

Nicole stiffened but she still nodded in response.

When Rita saw that Nicole was agreeable to the marriage, she laughed heartily. Then, she turned her head to look

at Colton and warned with a fierce look, "Nicole is my granddaughter. She has the Goulds as her backer. Therefore,

you will treat her well. Otherwise, I will do everything in my power to ensure that justice will be served!"

Colton responded with a smile, "Rest assured, Old Mrs. Gould. I will certainly treat Nicole well."

The fierce look on Rita's face softened slightly. After that, she looked at Nicole and continued, "Nicole, you might

think I sound like a broken record. But you are my granddaughter. So, that makes you a part of the Goulds. I won't

stand to see you suffer due to your current circumstances. Come, child. Follow me to the Gould Residence. Don't

worry about others. I will surely watch your back!"

Rita's words touched Nicole deeply. Sure enough, a smile painted on her face as she cautiously took a look at Rita.
