One More Night

Chapter 123 – More question in her mind



However, Stephanie on the other side was not calm. She frowned and looked at Nicole, who was dressed in luxurious clothes. Her eyebrows were almost knotted. “What’s going on? Who is that woman?”

Because it was too dazzling, she did not recognize Nicole for a while.

However, James’ heart kept shrinking, because he had recognized Nicole, but there were waves of pain in his eyes.

Everyone was very curious about Nicole’s identity, but before they could ask, they saw the heroine coming to the stage tonight on the stairs in front of them.

Farah was wearing a light pink dress, with a big wave behind her back. His glittering and translucent lips were painted with transparent and attractive lipstick, and every twinkle and smile showed her mature and elegant charm.

Carrying her skirt hemline, she gracefully stood on the high ground and allowed everyone to look at her up and down. However, she could not help but look at James, who was standing in the distance, over so many people.

It was a pity that James’ eyes had been fixed on Nicole, so he did not pay attention to her.

Farah bit her lips bitterly, but there was still a generous smile on her face. She stood on the walking platform and looked at the crowd.

Then a microphone appeared on her hand, and a white projection cloth on one of the walls was slowly pulled open, attracting everyone’s attention.

Farah stood there, and there was more shyness in her gentle and elegant smile.

“Thank you for coming to my birthday party. But today, apart from my birthday, I have one more thing to announce to you that this is the only time I have done it in my life, so I hope to get everyone’s blessings. Now, there are still some important guests who haven’t arrived yet. Let me invite you to watch a movie first.”

Just as she said it, the projection slowly opened.

The lights in the hall also dimmed, and images began to appear on the projection cloth. They were pictures of a little boy and a little girl. The two children were very beautiful.

Some squatted together to see the flowers, some walked in tandem, and some looked at each other with a smile.

The girl was like a boy’s little tail, following him closely.

Then the boy and girl watched each other grow up, gradually revealing the delicate outline of adult men and women.

Finally, the picture was fixed on a man in a white suit, who was as gentle as a jade, and a girl as elegant and beautiful as a princess.

They walked hand in hand in the purple lavender sea.

From childhood to adulthood, it seemed that the childhood sweethearts had never been separated. Such a pair of childhood sweethearts could make people see their intimacy at a glance, and they also felt that they should naturally be together.

The scene was very quiet, and everyone’s eyes fell on the adult boy and girl.

The girl was Farah, the heroine tonight and the boy, the spotlight, fell on the man in a white suit, who was still in the corner today – James.

The bright light made people see his expression clearly. He was shocked, unbelievable, or could be regarded as touched.

Farah was still standing on the stage with the microphone in her hand, but her face was still full of shy pink, and her eyes were bright and moist.

She was like a girl who had just grown up in love. She had outstanding appearance, noble temperament and a proud family background. So many people were envious that James would be chosen by such a girl.

But Farah was also nervous. Only she knew that her hand holding the microphone was trembling. She looked at James from a distance, and her sincere eyes were full of pleading that only she could understand.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

She plucked up the courage, put down herself-esteem, and made her greatest confession.

James’ face was like an ink drenched landscape painting, which was very hazy.

The scene was extremely quiet. The crowd waited for James’ reaction. James frowned and was about to step forward. At this time, the closed door of the hall was pushed open again.

Nicole turned around and saw two men and a woman coming in.

The mature charm and temperament on their bodies showed their age. However, because they were well-maintained, they looked to be in their early forties.

One man and one woman was a couple, and the woman next to them was wearing a black silk dress. Her elegant temperament and beautiful figure made people like her very much.

James’ steps suddenly stopped. Everyone was curious about the identities of these three people when they heard Farah on the stage calling out happily, “Mommy!”

Farah walked down from the step by step stage and hugged the woman under the stage excitedly.

Farah’s mother was the former daughter of the Philip family. She had been apart for many years, but her temperament didn’t diminish a bit.

All the people who came here were her closest relatives.

Soon, Nicole recognized Carole.

“Mrs. George.” She whispered to herself.

Nicole was shocked and stunned. Was that Kevin’s mother? It seemed to be true. She remembered her face way back before, they ate in a luxury restaurant with Jake.

She was surprised, maybe she can answer her and help her about Kevin and what happened to him? Why did Kevin change his name and can’t remember their past?

There’s a lot of questions running in her head now. It was really unexpected.

“Mommy, you’re finally here.” Farah acted like a spoiled child.

Carole patted her on the shoulder and said, “How can I not come over for such a big thing to happen to my daughter? I haven’t seen your Uncle Garcia and your Aunt Garcia yet.”

Farah immediately obediently greeted the middle-aged couple next to her, “Uncle Garcia and Aunt Garcia.”

Mrs. Garcia looked at Farah with a gentle and satisfied look. Then she held her hand and whispered, “You still call me Aunt. You should change your words later.”

Farah’s face turned red, and James and Stephanie also came up to greet her. Because of the arrival of several parents, the scene became grand again.

“Dad, Mom, Aunt Philip.” James nodded in greeting. Farah’s bright eyes fell on his face, full of sweet shyness.

At the same time, Kevin also dragged Nicole over.

Nicole put her hand in his arm. This was the second time she had seen her mother-in-law. Although she had seen her before, the meaning was completely different. How could she not be nervous?

She couldn’t help complaining to Kevin in a low voice, “Why didn’t you tell me in advance that your mother would come?”

“What’s the difference?” Kevin frowned.

“Of course, I’m not prepared at all.” She whispered.

“You don’t need to prepare anything. The ugly daughter-in-law will have to see her mother-in-law sooner or later.”

“Do you think I’m ugly?”

Sometimes, Nicole’s mind could not step on the point.

Kevin, who was listening by the side, only pursed her lips slightly. “I didn’t say it.”

“Then what do you mean?”

However, in the eyes of everyone, this scene had turned into a close flirting in public. Kevin seldom showed her emotions in front of others, but today, obviously, it was different.

Now, everyone was more curious about Nicole’s identity.

Finally, Kevin and Nicole came to Carole. Carole had a gentle smile on her face. It seemed that time didn’t leave any trace on her body. She was still as beautiful as an innocent girl, but the temperament aura imperceptibly revealed told others that she was an elegant woman who had experienced many vicissitudes of life and had settled down.

“Son, so, this is the daughter-in-law you found for me?” Carole laughed and spoke first.

Everyone knew what the word “daughter-in-law” meant. But the last time, when everyone was whispering, James fixed his eyes on Nicole. The complex air of aggression made Nicole nervous.

Carole looked at Nicole and smiled, “How are you? It’s been a long time since we’ve met.”

“Well, Mom…” She still gave the order in a clear and clear way as last time, but now Nicole finally had some preparation, so she hurriedly called out, “Mom, I’m fine. I… I just wanted to ask you something.” Nicole hesitated at first but she wanted to know everything.

Carole knew what she meant, she kept looking at Nicole with gentle and kind eyes, which made Nicole understand that she was a woman as gentle and kind as her mother-in-law.

She held the hand of Nicole and said, “Dear, I know you have a lot of things you wanted to know, but this is not the right time for that.” She looked at Kevin and said, “I’m happy to see you again and I will arrange our next meeting for that. For now, let’s enjoy the party, okay?”

Nicole understood the situation and replied with a smile, “Thank you Mom. I’m happy to see you too.”

And they hugged each other. She also breathed a sigh of relief.

Kevin also hugged her Mom tightly, “I miss you Mom.”

“I miss you too, Son.” She smiled at them happily.
