Emmeline counted on her fingers and realized they had just over thirty days to prepare.

“Okay, great. Thank Auntie for me,” she said to Abel.

Abel relayed the message to Rosaline, who replied, “Good. We have enough time to prepare for it.”

Abel felt relieved. Once he and Emmeline were officially married, she could call him her husband without any hesitation.

“But Abel,” Rosaline asked, “where are you planning to set up your home? You own several villas, don’t you?”

“I think I’ll ask Emma,” Abel said, mentioning the locations of his several villas to Emmeline.

“I think The Precipice would be best,” Emmeline said. “It’s close to where the kids will be going to preschool.”

“Okay then,” Abel said. “We can stay wherever you want for a few days, and I’ll have the children’s rooms decorated to their liking.”

Emmeline nodded. “I actually prefer the western suburbs. You can see the beach from there.”

“If that’s what you like, we’ll make it our wedding home,” Abel said. “We can always go back to The Precipice after the wedding.”

Emmeline thought it over and nodded. “That works for me.”
