At first, Lola was a little excited, but Logan’s restlessness calmed her down.
That morning, Logan woke up before dawn and tried on a few outfits in front of the mirror.
From that, she could tell that he was excited. He really wants to make our relationship official.
The bureau staff was very efficient and soon walked in with the certificates. “Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs.
Jefferson.”
Lola was slightly taken aback by the mention of Mrs. Jefferson, a title that she had not been accustomed to.
Naturally, Logan handed out two money envelopes. One could tell from the thickness that he had placed a lot of
cash in it.
The staff turned it down, telling him about the rule against public servants receiving gifts.

He was very gracious in terms of money. With that amount of cash, one wondered how many cups of coffee could
be bought.
Next, Logan took Lola’s hand and exited the Civil Affairs Bureau. The two stood at the entrance and took a selfie,
which he hurriedly posted to his Facebook.
Of course, Lola wanted to share the news too. The marriage was a happy occasion; she didn’t see a need to keep it
a secret. After the registration, the two drove back to the Jefferson Mansion. Logan’s four sisters and brothers-in-
law, along with their children, were waiting eagerly for the couple’s return. Since it was a happy day, everyone took
a break from work and decided to throw a grand celebration. They knew that Logan definitely planned to bring Lola
along to celebrate the occasion with his friends at night, so they arranged for a family lunch. Lola felt a little shy
about joining the family. Even though she prepared herself for it, she still felt a little unfamiliar. Old Mr. Jefferson
changed into a smart outfit, looking like he was in a festive mood. The house was redecorated and now looked
merry. The instant Logan stepped into the house; he showed off their certificates. “Look at these. Look! They’re
here!” Lorraine looked at him in disdain. “Wipe that smirk off your face! You’re acting as if the rest of us never got
married! Look at the kids running around you, and look at yourself! You only got yourself a wife at this age. What’s
there to show off?” He slapped the certificates on the coffee table. “Am I showing off? Why don’t you show
me your marriage certificate as well? Currently, I’m the only one in this family who has a marriage certificate! Try
beating me on that, then! Ha!” Who’d bring along their marriage certificate for no reason? Isn’t that a bit bonkers?
Lorraine sneered and habitually expressed her disapproval at her ostentatious brother. Old Mr. Jefferson walked up

ear.
“Finally! You’re married. I had thought you would burden me for the rest of my life.” Since Logan was excited today,
he beamed at everything said to him. Lorraine came over to take Lola’s hand and led her over to the sofa. “Do you
have any ideas for your wedding? It’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. We will try our best to make your dreams come
true.” Lola didn’t care much about the ceremony. After receiving their marriage certificates, no matter how the
wedding looked like, she had officially acknowledged Logan as her husband. Therefore, there was no need to fuss
over the details of the wedding. She shook her head and answered, “I’m okay. I’m fine with anything.” Lorraine
patted her hand. “Girl, you’re really simple.” Then, she didn’t say anything more except to order the servants to
light up fireworks in the front yard. On the other hand, Logan was chatting happily with his sisters and brothers-in-
law. However, it was at this moment that his phone started ringing.
