At the end of the year, Hyatt and Rhea held a wonderful and beautiful wedding ceremony.
Matthew was very busy during the Spring Festival. Since he couldn't come back from Singapore, he
sent his bodyguards to escort his wife and four sons to A Country.
Gifford and his entourage were already at the airport of A Country to pick them up.
The arrival of a certain group of people in the VIP passage of the airport attracted the attention of
many.
There were more than a dozen bodyguards passing through in convoy, all surrounding the mother and
her sons.
The four boys looked almost identical as they were wearing the exact same clothes. As soon as they
saw Gifford, they released the hands of their bodyguards and ran towards him with excitement.
"Uncle!" they called out in one voice. Everyone in the hall watched them in awe.
The crowd couldn't help but marvel at the adorable children. 'Wow, quadruplets!'
Their muscular bodyguards trotting behind them anxiously was a spectacular scene to behold and the
crowd broke into a boisterous laughter.
The boys ran and jumped on Gifford—one hung from his neck, one on his back and two on both hands.
Gifford still kept smiling the whole time. "Wow, these guys are a handful, huh? No wonder Matthew still
keeps a good figure even though he hasn't gone to the special training in such a long time." Matthew's
real secret to keeping a good figure was grabbing his sons and running two laps around the house
every day.
Dressed in a thin white down jacket, Erica took off her sunglasses and greeted the people beside
Gifford, "Hello, guys!"
"Hello, Mrs. Huo." They greeted Erica respectfully.
After exchanging greetings, they all left the airport together.
This time, the Li family household looked livelier than ever. Erica and her four sons were back, so was
Yvette. Now that Yvette was back home, both her husband and daughter would be joining her as well.
Suddenly, there were all these people breathing in new life into the Li family residence.
Needless to say, the children were the happiest, especially Wendy. All of a sudden, she had so many
cousins taking care of her that she even forgot about her mother.
But there was one more person who hadn't come home yet—Chantel.
Unfortunately, she wasn't able to come back for the holidays because she was still shooting a movie
abroad.
Although Gifford was disappointed that his wife couldn't make it, he didn't show it on his face. However,
he did start to consider whether he should persuade Chantel to quit the entertainment industry and
have her find a stable job in A Country.
In truth, he never thought that Chantel would become an internationally recognized celebrity one day
after he had taken her to a big city.
The next day, Erica left the four children and Hugo in the care of her parents as she had to attend and
bear witness to Hyatt and Rhea's wonderful wedding.
Hyatt was a successful photographer now and his studio in A Country was doing well enough to
support him and Rhea.
Another person who was equally, if not more, thrilled to see Erica was Hyatt's father.
Three years ago, he met Matthew when he was on a business trip to Y City. Thanks to Erica, Matthew
poached him to work in a bank under the ZL Group in A Country. His salary was now three times higher
than it was before.
The living standard of his family had improved greatly just because of Erica's help. No wonder he was
very happy to see her at the wedding.
Hyatt and Rhea's wedding went on without a hitch. That night, Erica didn't go home until the wedding
was over.
On their way home, Yvette held Erica's hand and asked, "Rika, do you still want another child?"
Erica nodded without hiding her real emotions. "Of course! I want to have a daughter with Matthew."
"Okay, then you should be more mindful of what you eat in the future!"
"I know, thanks Yvette. What about you? Do you want one more kid?" Erica asked.
"I haven't decided yet. Your brother-in-law isn't bothered either way. Anyway, I've been struggling for a
long time," Yvette sighed.
"Come on, don't worry about it so much. Just let nature take its course. If you get pregnant, then keep
the baby. If you don't, then forget about it," Erica said, smiling warmly.
"You're right. If I ever have another child, be it a girl or a boy, the kid can be Wendy's friend in the
future."
"Yes, that's the spirit. Look, I already gave birth to four sons and I still want to have a daughter with
Matthew. Yvette, don't you think I'm a good wife?" Erica asked. She was starting to feel proud of
herself.
Yvette was amused by her and echoed, "Yes, you're right. My sister is the best wife in the world!"
"Of course!" Erica brazenly winked at Yvette.
The two sisters didn't go back home straight from the wedding; instead they went to pay Tessie a visit
first.
Tessie didn't attend Rhea's wedding because she felt ashamed to see her, so she waited for Erica in
her flower shop.
Tessie's flower shop was not by any means a small one. Under her diligent management, it had been
upgraded from a few square meters to more than thirty square meters.
When they arrived, it was at about ten o'clock in the evening. To Erica's surprise, Tessie was
accompanied by a man in a camouflage uniform, who was mopping the floors, in the flower shop.
Erica was taken by curiosity and she asked Tessie directly, "Is he one of your new employees?"
Tessie chuckled and joked, "Yes, he is!"
The man turned around when he overheard their conversation. Almost immediately, Erica screamed,
"Louie? Is that you?"
Yes, it was indeed Louie Meng. Louie Meng was the soldier that Erica and Tessie got to know when
they were sent to the military training by Wesley.
Erica heard rumors that Louie Meng had a crush on Tessie, but she thought that Tessie had turned him
down.
But why was Louie Meng here today?
Louie Meng put down the mop in his hand and politely invited the two sisters to have a seat.
Tessie didn't hide the truth from Erica for too long. "Rika, I'm with Louie now!"
Louie Meng held Tessie's hand with a grin on his face and nodded at Erica and Yvette. "Yes, I've also
brought Tessie to meet my parents.
We're going to get married in the spring next year!" Erica was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped
to the floor. Tessie not only had a boyfriend, but also was going to get married next spring.
Just at the thought of this, she pulled Tessie out of Louie's hand and led her out of the door, while the
two people watched them in confusion. She pulled Tessie close and whispered, "Does he know about
Ethan?"
Tessie thought that something was wrong, but when she heard what Erica had to say, she burst into
laughter and said, "He knows. He is divorced as well, but he doesn't have a child. I have told him
everything. He doesn't mind."
Tessie even told her the truth about letting Erica take the blame for her. Although Louie Meng was
disappointed at her, when he saw that she had realized her fault, he changed his mind and decided to
give her a chance.
"Oh, that's good. Do you really like him?" Erica asked. She was just worried because it was all so
sudden.
Tessie shrank back as she felt a little shy. "Yes, we have been living together for some time." Louie
Meng would come to help her manage the flower shop on his break.
"What? So soon?" Erica was so surprised. "As long as you are happy, I am happy for you!"
When the two went back inside, Louie Meng stood up straight, looking a little anxious. He was so
nervous when he watched them leave abruptly that he couldn't wait to ask Erica, "Mrs. Huo, do you
have any objections with Tessie marrying me?"
Erica wasn't expecting him to confront her like that, but she responded with a smile. "Of course not! As
long as you promise to treat Tessie well, I wish you both all the happiness in the world!"
