This was probably how he and Number-9 had been like when they met at the orphanage back then. He
had given Number-9 a token of remembrance so that they could find each other again in the future, but
he never dared to say goodbye to her and told her about his feelings before he left.
He always thought he would have a chance to see her again, but even until this very day, he had not
managed to track her down.
This seemed to be a recurring theme in all his relationships, including with Bonnie at this moment. Jim
would always fall into the trap of thinking he had plenty of time to confess his feelings and start a
relationship with the person he loved, yet all of a sudden, Bonnie only had seven days left. He closed his
eyes.
“Harvey, I’m planning…to host a wedding with your mother tomorrow.” Harvey’s entire body stiffened
when he heard this. He immediately glanced at Bonnie, then at Jim.
“But Mommy still hasn’t woken up yet…”
“I don’t want to wait any longer.” He strode over, pulled Harvey into his arms, then reached out and
clutched Bonnie’s hand in his.
“It’s about time the three of us become a real family.” Harvey bit his lip and nodded earnestly.
“Alright! June and I will become the flower girl and boy for your wedding!”
Jim had stayed true to his promise. Even before daybreak came, the servants were already busy
preparing for the wedding of Jim Landry, the young master of the Landry family. Initially, according to
Charles and Rosalyn’s plan, Jim and Bonnie were supposed to have a small, intimate event at a church.
However, Jim had rejected this idea.
He wanted everyone in Merchant City to know that Bonnie Craig was going to become his wife. Even
though she was in her coma and would probably leave this world in seven days, he wanted everyone to
see how happy she was.
Therefore, the next morning, all the members of the elite society in Merchant City received an invitation
in the mail, inviting them to attend the wedding between Jim Landry and Bonnie Craig, much to their
bewilderment. Was Jim not supposed to be marrying a woman named Charlotte Jacobs in a week? Not
only was the wedding brought forward, but the bride had changed, too.
The person who was most furious upon receiving the invitation was none other than Luna. She refused
to accept this outcome tossed the invitation onto the table in spite.
” How dare he!”
How dare Jim even host such an extravagant wedding without even asking Bonnie’s consent, especially
after hurting her so many times in the past? What if she chose to leave him after waking up?
What if, after the miscarriage she had gone through, she decided not to love Jim anymore? Even though
Jim was her brother, Luna liked Bonnie, the friend who had been with her through thick and thin, better,
so she was more inclined to take care of Bonnie’s feelings. If this were what Bonnie wanted, she would
have no objections. However, if Bonnie did not want this, then she would not allow this to happen, ever.
Bonnie was still unconscious, so how could he possibly go through with this without even seeking her
approval?
“I guess I’m not the only person being irresponsible about marriage.” Theo, who had been mulling by
himself all this while, chuckled when he saw Luna hurling the invitation onto the table.
“Bonnie had even gone all the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau to stop me from marrying Roanne…but
ironically, she’s become the person getting married against her will.”
He curled his lips into a smirk and added, “It turns out we’re not that different after all.”
This meant that him pushing Rachel away and sending her right into Caleb’s arms…was not entirely
wrong, was it?
