Nate and Beatrice arrived at the Monteverde Farm at noon and saw that some of Gastov’s guests had come. Beatrice looked around as she saw the beautiful land of Monteverde’s clan, Gastov’s friend. Nate grabbed Beatrice’s waist and whispered in her ears.
“My sister is here,” Nate said as he spotted Clerophine in Celestine’s direction. It looks like his mom invited her to attend Gastov’s party. Beatrice looked in Celestine’s direction, and she saw Clerophine standing beside Celestine and looking at them with a death glare.
“Why she’s looking at me like that? She really likes you.” Beatrice said to Nate, which made Nate roll his eyes and caused Beatrice to laugh as she saw how Nate rolled his eyes.
“Nate,” they’re both looking their back at someone called Nate. It’s Quiver holding a wine glass and walking towards them.
“He’s also invited?” Beatrice asked as she saw Quiver walking closer to them.
“Yeah, my dad has known him for a long time,” Nate said, so Beatrice looked at him.
“But Dad doesn’t know about the clan war that happened between our clans,” Nate added, so Beatrice looked at Quiver, who was now in front of them.
“You’re gossiping about me, aren’t you?” Quiver asked and drank in his wine glass.
“You always drink wine, Quiver,” Nate commented, so Quiver laughed.
“Well, this is the only way I can remove Margarett from my mind,” Quiver said and looked at Beatrice, who became quiet as she heard her sister’s name. “But now I guess I really can’t remove her since her twin is here, representing her appearance,” Quiver added, so Beatrice laugh a little.
“You should go to heaven and meet Margarett there,” Beatrice said, which made Nate laugh. Quiver looked at Nate.
“They have differences. Your wife is so brutal.” Quiver commented.
“But I am happy now seeing you guys okay, after what happened.” He added, so Beatrice smiled, and Nate tapped his shoulder.
“Thanks to you, men. We would never be this happy now if you didn’t give me some advice,” Nate said as he remembered how Quiver told him to hear Beatrice’s explanation before he reacted.
Quiver smiled at them and looked behind them.
“Anyways, why does your sister look in our direction like we killed someone?” Quiver asked as he saw how Clerophine looked in their direction.
“Don’t mind her. She’s always like that.” Nate said and took a deep breath.
“Anyways, Uncle Gastov is looking at the both of you, and he’s inside the house,” Quiver said and drank his wine.
“And go grab some wine for the both of you. Let’s have fun tonight.” He added as Nate and Beatrice started to walk closer to the house where they needed to pass through Clerophine and Celestine’s table.
As they walked closer, Celestine noticed the both of them, which made her stand from her seat and walk closer towards them and great Nate.
“Nate, my son.” Celestine created and gave a hug to her son. Beatrice just watched them and looked in the other direction as she saw that Celestine was looking at her.
“Why did you take her here?” Celestine asked Nate as she separated from the hug. Nate rolled his eyes as he knew her mom would start a drama again.
“Dad invited us,” Nate answered, so Celestine looked at him again for a second before she looked at Beatrice again.
“Well, I know that, but her name is not listed on the guest list,” Celestine said, so Nate shooked his head.
“Don’t start a fight here, Mom, don’t ruin Dad’s special day,” Nate said and grabbed Beatrice closer to him.
“If she wouldn’t attend this party, I will not attend too.” He added and started to walk away from them with Beatrice.
Nate heard his mom calling him, but he no longer turned back.
As they enter the house, Nate is greeted by Gastov’s friends.
“Is she your wife?” Mr. Monteverde asked as he saw Beatrice with him. Nate smiled and looked at Beatrice.
“Yeah, she’s my beautiful wife,” Nate said, which made Beatrice blush.
“Good to know that your eldest son has already married.” Mr. Monteverde said to Gastov, who was looking at them with a smile.
“I am so glad that he ended up with Beatrice, not with Eille,” Gastov said, which made them laugh, while Beatrice was stunned for a second as she heard the name Eille.
“Does it means that he already introduced her to his family?” Beatrice asked herself as she watched Nate talking to some of Gastov’s friends.
“Beatrice,” Gastov called her, so she looked at him.
“When will I expect to have a grandchild?” Gastov asked, so Beatrice looked at Nate with a smile while Nate turned red because he was embarrassed by his dad’s question.
“You excited about your grandchild.” Mr. Monteverde said, so Gastov looked at him.
“Of course, it will be my first time having a grandchild, if ever,” Gastov answered, which made everyone laugh.
A few minutes passed, and the party started; Gastov’s guests were already in their seats as he was about to say something to them.
Beatrice and Nate are already in their sit waiting for Gastov’s announcement. Beatrice caught Clerophine looking at her with a smirk which she didn’t pay attention to; Beatrice knew that she would waste her time if she paid attention to her.
“Good evening, everyone,” Gastov said as he was about to start his announcement.
“I am so pleased and honored that each of you attended my birthday party today. I didn’t expect that you love me this much to spend some of your time with me.” He said, so everyone laughed.
“Well, I just wanted to take this opportunity to share with you how proud I am of my son, Nate.” He said, so everyone turned their head to Nate’s attention.
“As he is the best son in the world, and I can’t wait to see my grandchild soon,” Gastov added, so everyone laugh except Clerophine, who has a dark plan now.
“And I just wanted to introduce to all of you. Nate’s wife, my daughter-in-law, Beatrice.” Everyone turned their heads to Beatrice, which made her feel uncomfortable because she wasn’t used to treating her like this.
“And I just wanted to tell them that no matter what happened. Just stay with each other, don’t let the devil ruin your relationship because I will get mad if ever Nate broke up with Beatrice. I will surely punch his face if he does that.” Gastov said, so everyone laughed and clapped their hand.
Gastov raises his wine glass in the air.
“Let’s enjoy this night.” He said so everyone, including Nate and Beatrice, raised their wine glasses in the air.
“Happy birthday!” Everyone starts to greet Gastov and drink their wine and make noise using their wine glasses.
