NovelEnglishChapter 176 Moving in Together Upon arriving home, I said goodbye to Eric by the elevator as usual. However, just as I was about to go inside, Eric suddenly called out to me.
He looked like he was hesitating about something. Feeling mildly confused, I tilted my head and turned to him. "What's wrong?" I asked.
He walked up toand asked in a low voice, "We're really going to register our marriage tomorrow, right?" gave him a strange look but eventually nodded. "Of course. We agreed on this, didn't we? Don't tellyou're the one having second thoughts now?" Eric shook his head. "Of course not. I'm just worried that you might regret it." I chuckled. "I won't. I promised you, and I don't go back on my word." Opportunities to help Eric didn't coften. As long as I could support him, I was willing to do anything-even if it meant marrying him. I truly owed him way too much.
After getting my confirmation, he subtly exhaled in relief. After a brief pause, he spoke again.

He cleared his throat and then said, "Since we're getting married, it's not appropriate for us to keep living as neighbors." My heart skipped a beat, and for sreason, my face was burning.
I nodded. "You're right. If we're going to put on an act, we might as well commit to it fully." Eric immediately followed up, saying, "I have a villa in the south of the city. It's perfect as a marital home. If you're okay with it, we can move in tomorrow after getting our marriage certificate. I'll also arrange for your belongings to be transferred there." I considered his words for a moment and slowly nodded under his expectant gaze. "Alright." Since Eric had everything planned, I wouldn't have to overthink things. That saveda lot of effort.
"There's not much I need to bring from here. It's just swork-related things. I can pack them in a suitcase and take them with me." Having said that, I glanced at him and asked hesitantly, "Should I bring sessentials? After all..." After all, that was originally Eric's house.
It probably only had his stuff. If I just showed up with a single suitcase, it might feel... a little inappropriate.
Eric smiled indulgently and said, "No need. The moment you agreed, I started preparing your room for you. need to Just dike you said, all you you.

After I was done packing, I lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. I grabbed my phone and mindlessly scrolled through it.
