Brian put his mind on these trivial things for only one purpose-

He hoped that Joanne would be happy.

At this moment, he saw the surprised and joyful look in the corners of Joanne's eyes. He felt more satisfied than the successful negotiation about any cooperation.

Although he tried so hard, his purpose was not for Joanne to thank him.

He raised his hand, touched Joanne's head, and said softly, "Go change your clothes and get ready to leave. I'm going to the hotel, and you go to meet Wendy."

"Okay!" Joanne nodded briskly, and then reached out her hand, ready to clap with Brian. "Mr. Brian, the revolution is not yet successful. We still need to try hard!"

Brian could understand what Joanne meant-

Although they had prepared everything, the plan had not really been carried out.

They would only succeed when Gavin picked Wendy up and she looked happily surprised.

Well, they indeed had to try hard.

Brian cooperated with Joanne and clapped with her. He handed her the clothes and motioned for her to change.

Joanne was very quick. She used a very short time to change her clothes. She came out and sat down in front of the dressing table. She put on some light make-up.

Usually, she loved to wear no make-up and let her skin breathe fresh air.

However, she would witness the happiness of Gavin and Wendy on that day. She decided to dress up and attend.

Since she had very good skin, when Joanne wore light make-up left a pale pink luster on her skin that made her look like an exquisite porcelain doll.

When she put on make-up, the last step was to apply lipstick on her lips.

The original color of Joanne's lips was very lovely cherry pink, and the shape of her lips was beautiful. As long as the color of the lipstick was matched with that of the make-up, she would look beautiful wearing the lipstick.

However, today's heroine should be Wendy, the bride. Joanne should keep a very low profile.

Joanne pulled open a drawer, in which there were small lattices. All her lipsticks were contained in them. There were too many of them, and she found it difficult to choose.

She looked at Brian and asked, "Which color do you think suits me?"

Brian glanced at all the lipsticks, picked one out, and handed it to Joanne-

Joanne looked at it and found that what Brian chose was a very ordinary grapefruit color, which was suitable for her make-up and was not very eye-catching.

She decided to listen to Brian!

Joanne carefully applied lipstick and stood up. Only then did she notice that Brian had changed into a suit.

The style of the suit Brian was wearing was a little different from his usual style.

Today, he didn't look like a businessman, nor did he look harsh. On the contrary, the style was very casual. A white square scarf was inadvertently revealed on his chest pocket, which had added a touch of elegance and nobility to him.

He was... too handsome.

When Joanne was admiring Brian's appearance, the latter was also looking her up and down.

After looking her up and down, there was a smile on Brian's lips and he said, "Joanne, you are very beautiful today."

Joanne tiptoed and looked at Brian with a smile. "You are also very handsome today!"

Brian raised the corner of his mouth and motioned for Joanne to hold his hand. "We should leave now."

"Okay."

Joanne took the opportunity to hold Brian's hand and went through today's plan in her mind-

According to the plan they had made, after Wendy got up, she would find a way to leave Gavin's apartment and go to see Dolly. Joanne and Freya would also go to Dolly's apartment to meet Wendy.

Brian would go to the hotel and the church to confirm the progress of the wedding preparation and the arrangements in the church.

Chris and Noah would go to Gavin's apartment. They would accompany Gavin to pick up the bride according to the procedure of a normal wedding.

Wesley was the best man.

Wendy would certainly not know all this. When she was putting on make-up and dressing up in Dolly's apartment, she would only think that Gavin was still waiting for her in the apartment.

While Joanne was thinking about it, she and Brian arrived at the gate of the villa. The two cars were parked in front of the gate one after the other.

Joanne let go of Brian's hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Things will go smoothly today!"

Brian smiled and looked at Joanne doubtfully. "Is this your intuition?"

"Yeah, my intuition is very accurate!" Joanne looked very serious, and there was a bright and charming smile on her face. "Well, let's go!"

Brian opened the door of Winston's car, and Joanne took the opportunity to get in. He closed the door for Joanne and watched the car drive away before getting in the other car.

The driver asked, "Mr. Brian, will you go to the church or the hotel first?"

"Go to the church first."

Then, Brian opened the iPad to deal with the e-mails.

He didn't tell Joanne that her intuition might have been wrong.

A week ago, Kim contacted Wesley and said that Rowdy might take action on the day of Gavin and Wendy's wedding.

Gavin and Wendy's wedding might be progressing smoothly, but no one could guarantee Wesley's safety.

Not only Joanne, but also Gavin and Wendy didn't know about it.

In Gavin's apartment in the city center-

Last night, Wendy was very excited after she came back from Dolly's apartment. They had the New Year's Eve dinner there. She kept chatting with Gavin until early in the morning, but she still didn't feel sleepy.

Seeing that it was getting deeper and deeper into the night, Wendy was very worried. She looked at Gavin with a crying face and said, "It's so annoying. How can I fall asleep?"

Gavin smiled helplessly and held Wendy in his arms. He coaxed her with soft words.

Wendy couldn't fall asleep because she was excited.

Gavin's voice had a comforting effect. As Wendy listened to his voice, her excitement faded away little by little. She soon fell asleep.

Wendy got up early at daybreak this morning. She looked like an energetic little monkey.

Gavin asked knowingly, "You got up so early. Is there anything you have to do?"

"There's nothing I have to do!" Wendy stretched herself and said with a smile, "We will celebrate the new year today. I'm a little excited!"

Gavin was still calm when they had breakfast.

Because of her nervousness, Wendy became very talkative. Before she fell asleep last night, she was like this. She simply couldn't stop talking.

Gavin felt helpless, but he cooperated with Wendy. He responded to her words from time to time and pretended not to know anything.

After breakfast, Wendy began to use her skills of acting-

She tidied up the bowls and dishes on the table. As if she had suddenly remembered something, she suddenly cried, "Ah!" She said, "Yesterday after we had dinner, I left something in my mother's apartment!"

Wendy was a forgetful person. Gavin certainly knew that she was finding an excuse.

Gavin played along and asked Wendy, "What did you forget to bring back?"

"Something very important!" Wendy made things up, looking very serious. "I'm going to get it back. Wait for me at home!"

"The driver is on leave. Take a taxi." Gavin reminded her. "Be careful on the way."

"Okay!" Wendy ran to Gavin and put her arms around his neck. She kissed him on the lips and said, "You must wait for me at home. Don't run around!"

"I will." Gavin rubbed Wendy's head. "See you later."

"See you later!"

Wendy took her bag and went out of the door joyfully.

After leaving the apartment, Wendy quickly called a taxi. She sat in the back seat and told the driver the address of Dolly's apartment.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, many people were busy paying New Years calls. Cars were coming and going on the road. The atmosphere was festive and lively, typical of the new year.

Dolly's apartment was also in the city center. The taxi soon arrived and stopped in front of the building. The driver looked at the taximeter and said, "Miss, 15 dollars."

Wendy handed him a large bill and said with a smile, "Thank you, Sir. Happy New Year!"

"Well, you too. Happy New Year!" The driver said with a smile, "Miss, wait a minute, I'll give you the change!"

"Oh, keep the change!"

Wendy pushed open the car door and got out. She happened to meet Joanne and Freya.

She was in a good mood and waved at Joanne and Freya from afar. "Joanne, Freya!"

Joanne smiled and looked at Wendy, asking, "What excuse did you use to come out?"

"Well, I said that I had left something in my mother's apartment. It was very easy for me to come out!" Wendy stood in the middle, holding Joanne's and Freya's hands at the same time. "What about you? How did you come out?"

"We came out aboveboard," Joanne said deliberately, "We didn't plot anything, so we didn't need an excuse to go out."

Wendy was speechless.

"OK, stop teasing Wendy," Freya said, "Let's go to my aunt's house first. Don't postpone applying cosmetics and dressing up."

Dolly got up a long time ago, and the makeup artist and the stylist had been waiting in the apartment for a long time.

Freya pressed Wendy's shoulders so that the latter would sit down. Freya beckoned the makeup artist and motioned for her to come over. Freya said, "Let's start applying cosmetics first."

Wendy was a little nervous, so she could only say something to relieve the nervousness-

She glanced at Joanne. "When will my cousin-in-law and the others go to see Gavin?"

Joanne looked at her watch and began to talk nonsense seriously again. "It's still early. When we are almost ready, they will go to see Gavin and find a way to take him to the church."

A scene naturally appeared in Wendy's mind-

As soon as Gavin was taken to the church, she appeared in front of him in a wedding dress and asked him if he was willing to marry her.

Well, Gavin would definitely be happily surprised!

Before she got to know Gavin, Wendy had never thought that she could do something so bold.

Now, she was preparing to do something very bold.

She didn't feel anything wrong.

That was why love was really the most magical thing in the world.

It would become the biggest weakness in a man and it could also give him the hardest armor.

Joanne noticed that Wendy was distracted. She walked up to the latter. "Wendy, what are you thinking about?"

Wendy took a deep breath and said, "I just feel it is a little... unbelievable."

Joanne smiled and asked, "Are you nervous?"

Wendy thought for a moment and her voice suddenly became calm. "From last night to this morning, I was very nervous, but now, I suddenly don't feel nervous."

Soon it would be the most important moment in Wendy's life. She wasn't nervous?

Joanne was somewhat surprised. She asked curiously, "Wendy, are you really not nervous?"
