Michael was visibly in an exceptional mood tonight. Coupled with his rare, endearing soft side, the atmosphere inside the private dining room remained thoroughly warm and joyful.
After dinner concluded, Michael personally arranged for a chauffeur to drive the rest of the Sin family back to the private villa, while he carried Evelyn and her mother in his own vehicle.
Upon arriving at their destination, Michael kissed Evelyn again and again on her soft lips. Only after her repeated, playful urges did he reluctantly drive away into the night.
The next morning arrived in a blur of anticipation. Evelyn was woken up very early for her bridal makeup and styling. By the time she stepped into her white lace wedding dress, it was already past eight o'clock.
Vivian Bannerman, her pregnant belly visibly rounded, stood beside her with a radiant, joyful smile as she adjusted Evelyn's veil.
