He would come back tonight to see his wife and eat some barbecue.
They had already gotten their marriage license; they were a real married couple in every legal sense. He didn't care about outdated traditions.
But the older generation cared, so he had no choice but to sneak in and sneak out.
It was exactly what he had done the night before.
Today, he needed to inspect the wedding preparations on the cruise ship and ensure every single detail was flawless.
"Yes, Sir," the driver said, pulling the car away.
That evening.
Stella had the staff prepare all the ingredients for a beachside barbecue.
She had even invited Carter Coleman and her bridesmaids.
Carter was her best friend from the village and her childhood friend of many years.
The bridesmaids were staying over tonight so they could get their makeup and styling done together tomorrow morning.
The bridesmaids were Sylvie Jennings, Sabrina Sherwood, and Cecilia Eames—they had basically demanded the roles, and they were her closest friends in the capital anyway.
According to Julius, the groomsmen were Sean Cahill, Steward Shipley, and Vernon Lowell.
Apparently, they had fought tooth and nail for the spots, as an absurd number of people wanted to be Julius's groomsmen, including top executives from the Blackwood Group.
Sean, leveraging his position as Julius's chief assistant and trusted confidant, naturally secured his spot with ease.
Steward earned his place by willingly conceding two percentage points to Julius in a major business deal.
Vernon's method was a bit more shameless. Relying on the brief camaraderie he and Stella shared in Lynwood City when she helped him take down Jiro Sanmoto, he had shamelessly begged her to put in a good word with Julius, successfully snagging the final spot.
