When I Was A Wallflower

Chapter 359 Julia Is Getting Married

Julia smiled after being asked by Amelie and replied, "Mrs. Gage previously met up with me and told me that she had thought things through. She would rather give us her consent than let us drag the relationship out without getting married."

Learning that Mrs. Gage was able to think in such a way, Amelie felt relieved. "I'm glad to hear that."

External interventions, particularly from close family members, were the most upsetting in a relationship.

It wasn't uncommon for people to destroy a relationship—or even a marriage, at that—under the guise that they were acting in the best interests of the couple.

As such, no matter how much Amelie wished for them to have a happy ending, Amelie never pressed Julia about her relationship with Samuel.

"In reality, she hasn't actually thought things through. It's just that her son wasn't listening to her, and she finally gave in. However, she deserves credit for being able to reason clearly. She even told me that if my relationship with Samuel doesn't work out, we'd break up someday, and she didn't have to be the bad guy to make that happen. If our relationship goes well, she has no reason to lose her son just because she wants another daughter-in-law."

Julia then paused and bitterly laughed before continuing, "At the end of the day, she is still dissatisfied with me."

"That's because she doesn't know you well. As you spend more time with her, she will grow to like you. Also, don't stop keeping in touch with her after the marriage just because you're afraid of the hassle, and remember to pay her frequent visits with Samuel," Amelie reminded Julia. "Mrs. Gage may have accepted you for the sake of her son, but no one is made of steel. If you treat her with sincerity, she will feel it someday."

Mrs. Gage's words demonstrated that she was a reasonable person. Hence, Amelie quickly reminded Julia of some strategies to win Mrs. Gage's heart.

"Your words are truly a wake-up call, Amelie!" Julia exclaimed. "Previously, when Mrs. Gage said that she would not be living with me and that we could just meet up occasionally, I even decided not to appear in front of her as frequently to avoid irritating her."

Amelie didn't know these tricks as well in the past. However, throughout the last two years, she had been organizing training camps besides managing Knowlit, and she had learned these tips from the trainers at the training camps.

Her emotional intelligence grew as a result of meeting so many formidable people.

"My parents are unconcerned about me. Luckily, I have you to guide me in a lot of things," Julia said as she rested her head on Amelie's shoulder and sighed.

In response, Amelie patted Julia's head. "We're best friends for life, so I'm your family. You can tell me anything," she said sincerely.

Both of them then went for lunch to welcome Amelie back to the country.

After lunch, Julia suggested, "Elie, come with me to pick out my gown."
