After hanging up the phone, Vivienne buckled her seat belt and turned to look at Percival with a serious expression. "Mr. Wolf, I want to get married!"

"Alright, let's go grab some... Eh? What did you say?" Percival thought Vivienne was saying she was hungry and didn't quite catch her words at first. Suddenly, he felt something was off. Had he just heard his little lady say she wanted to get married?

Right?

That's what she said, right?

His ears couldn't be deceiving him, could they?

Vivienne chuckled, leaning in close to his ear, and whispered, "I said I want to get married! Don't you?"

"Yes!" Percival replied, starting the car with determination, "Let's go get that license right now!"

He had no idea why Vivienne would suddenly want to get married after a phone call, but he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

Right here, right now, he was going to make his little lady his wife!

Vivienne, "There's no need to rush!"

"Of course there is! It's urgent!"

Speeding up, he wished he could fly to the courthouse to get that piece of paper that was worth mere dollars but priceless in his heart.

Vivienne burst into laughter. "Why are you so eager?"

Percival glanced at her while keeping the speed up, "Want to find out?"

"Nope!"

Seeing that Percival was already driving toward the Ellington Mansion, Vivienne pinched the bridge of her nose and placed her other hand over his, saying, "What I mean is, we need to pick up the pace. The cat-and-mouse game has gone on long enough. Once we catch that poisonous rat, we'll get married!"

Percival replied, "It won't affect us getting the license."

Vivienne was speechless. She had shot herself in the foot by bringing up marriage out of the blue!

Now, her Mr. Wolf wouldn't rest until they had that marriage license in hand!
