My Dreamy Old Husband

Michael thought of the day they went to try on wedding dresses. It seemed like something that happened many, many years ago. But in his mind, the days he spent with Sophia were all real.

He still remembered that she had tried on several dresses that day, but his mind was occupied elsewhere. That same day, the Murray Family had come over to make a fuss and were unwilling to leave.

He was worried about Nathan who was at home at the time.

All of his focus was on Nathan that he forgot about Sophia who was trying on wedding dresses in front of him.

Therefore, regardless of how he tried, he could not remember how she looked in a wedding dress that day. He only remembered that she had picked a dress and submitted her order. A year later, the manufacturer sent the dress to them.

Unfortunately, she never got to put it on before Quinton abducted her.

He tried to picture her in that dress, but he realized he could not put the two together no matter how hard he tried.

If I can see her in a wedding dress again before I die, how nice would that be?

The next day, everyone went by the original plan to spend a few more days on the island. There were plenty of activities to do, but Sophia still found having seafood barbecue more meaningful.

Early in the morning, however, people were looking at her in an unusual way.

The wedding was already over, but a bunch of new faces appeared on the island.

By noon, Theo and Quinton came, and so did Celine and Justin. Nathan also showed up in a new suit and tie.

Joel had brought the whole family over.

Something about the situation did not feel right.

Moreover, Carmen was in her flower girl attire again and was rehearsing with Hope. They claimed that they were preparing for the wedding tomorrow.
