PopularNovelThat evening, Yuri texted back: [Thanks for the good wishes, your mom and | are over the moon].
Yuri had stayed in Imperial City for nearly a month before returning with the urn. He had hired the best funeral service team
around, who handled Julie's affairs with impeccable grace and efficiency.
At the burial, Brittany turned her head away, unable to bear the sight.
Yuri stood a short distance away, shrouded in a mist of sorrow, as if he had stepped through the veils of tto see Julie once
again. He closed his eyes, and it felt as though the air still carried the scent of jasmine from her skin.
Just like when they first met.
Yuri kept his marriage a secret.
After all, registering a marriage with someone who had passed didn't exactly make for great dinner table conversation, and he
didn't want to draw too much attention.
When Knox Lynette learned of it, he was livid. “Marrying someone who's gone, what on earth are you thinking?”
“Dad, if you hadn't been so adamant about stopping me, Juliana, no, her real nis Julie. Julie and | would have been together a
long tago.”
Yuri seemed calm, but his words were laced with resentment. “Now, all | want is to marry Julie. If you won't accept it, you might as
well disown me!”
Knox's breath hitched. After a long pause, he finally said, “All these years, you've blamed me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYuri was silent. He had indeed resented the entire Lynette family. But what he resented more was his own lack of strength. If not for
that, he wouldn't have been separated from Julie, nor would he have been forced into another marriage. But in the end, they were
together.
Knox, advanced in years, felt a twinge of guilt and relented. “Since you're married to her, she and Brittany should be added to the
family tree.”
Yuri had intended to do just that.
“But since she’s your daughter, better change her surnsooner rather than later.”
Yuri got up and left.
Knox watched his retreating figure. In the end, he couldn't help but say, “Yuri, I've wronged you these years, and for that, I'm
sorry.”
Yuri walked away with long strides.
The belated apology meant nothing.
When Brittany heard about Knox's commotion, she rushed over immediately. “Dad, Grandpa didn't give you a hard time, did he?”
Seeing his daughter, Yuri's mood lifted. “Not at all.”
He paused. “He wantsto move you and Julie to the family tree, your name..."
“Dad, change it,” Brittany said decisively. She had long wished to sever ties with the Dustin family, her eyes shining. “From today
on, I'm not just Brittany. I'm Brittany Lynette.”
Yuri nodded and took Brittany Lynette's hand. “All right.”
Brittany Lynette was added to the Lynette family tree.
After thirty years, Julie’s nwas finally listed next to Yuri's. They were no longer just a couple; they were husband and wife.
Yuri, usually reserved, felt a wave of emotion.
After Brittany's parents’ affairs were settled, Ophelia’s wedding arrived as planned.
The ceremony went as smoothly as expected.
Halfway through the vows, Saskia arrived alone. She sat in the audience, her eyes red from crying, especially when Jonathan
slipped the wedding ring on Ophelia’s finger, and her tears flowed uncontrollably.
The guests at her table shifted uncomfortably.
Ysabel, ever outspoken, poured Saskia a cup of water. “Ms. Lynette, stop crying; you've got a baby on the way. It's not worth
harming your health over..."
She paused. “Mr. Brandt doesn't look too good; maybe you should check on him.”
Gabriel had originally not wanted to come, but Mrs. Metzger had personally insisted. As soon as he stepped into the wedding
venue, he saw Saskia crying her eyes out, surrounded by guests who looked at a loss for words. His face hardened instantly.
What husband would be okay with his pregnant wife attending her ex's wedding, sobbing as if her heart was breaking?
Saskia froze, not daring to meet Gabriel's gaze. Her tears teetered on the brink of her eyelids, pitiful and indecisive.
