Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1589

“Leslie, Leslie Norton,” murmured Joan softly before she grinned and said, “Okay, let’s call the baby Leslie.”

“You have a name now, baby. You’re Leslie Norton. Do you like the name?” asked Joan sweetly, while caressing her stomach.

“Let’s share the name with our parents right away. They’ve been asking about it for a while now,” reminded Joan. She shifted her gaze to Larry.

She hadn’t used her phone or any devices that emitted radiation in a while since she was pregnant. Her daily pastime had since changed to watching tv and gardening.

Hence, Larry had to be the one to call their parents and share the news.

“Don’t worry and rest well. I’ll go tell them now,” promised Larry lovingly, before planting a soft kiss on her forehead.

Larry woke up early the next morning and softly called out to Joan to get her up as well.

She had been sleeping a lot ever since she got pregnant and spent most of her time in dreamland.

At first, Larry didn’t want to let her attend Caspian and Nancy’s engagement party. Unfortunately, Joan was persistent in going, so Larry had no choice.

After freshening up, the two of them got into the car and hurried over to Caspian’s place.

Caspian lived near the Norton Residence, so it only took a little over ten minutes to go over.

Larry was quick to help Caspian set everything up, while Joan stood at the side and stared happily.

The engagement party started soon after. Only a few people were present as only family members and several close friends were invited.

Naturally, parents from both sides were present as well.

The Barrymores were a pretty prominent family in Marsingfill, and Nancy was their only heir. Hence, she was very much loved and well cared for since she was a child.

Unlike Gabriella though, the Barrymores valued honor and discipline, so Nancy was a remarkable woman with good manners.

At first, Nancy’s parents were upset to hear that their daughter was dating a bodyguard. The Barrymores were a powerful family, so they didn’t like the idea of having a bodyguard as a son-in-law.

Still, they never protested that relationship verbally because their daughter loved the man.

They weren’t happy with their daughter’s choice and didn’t agree to that wedding until they learned that Nancy’s boyfriend was Caspian.

Caspian was one of Larry’s best friends. He might be a bodyguard on paper, but everyone knew that Caspian was practically the second in command of Norton Corporation.

How could they not be satisfied under those circumstances?

The engagement party was regal but simple. There weren’t any complicated rituals. The emcee simply delivered a speech and kick off the ceremony before Caspian went down on one knee and asked for Nancy’s hand in marriage.

It was like any regular engagement party, and everyone left after going through the ceremony.

The only thing interesting about the whole thing was Caspian.

He was especially handsome in his outfit, and everything looked picture perfect when he stood beside Nancy.

The only problem was that Caspian was blushing red the entire time. It was as if someone shoved a few bottles of wine down his throat just before the party started. In fact, he was stuttering and made no sense even when he was proposing to Nancy. That got everyone to giggle.

Larry and Joan sat quietly at their designated spots. They were both happy for the new couple.

Seeing the two engaged lovebirds got Joan to recall how things were at her own engagement party. Sweetness ambushed her, and she was happy.

“Dear, when are we going to get married?” asked Joan.

Anticipation filled her voice as she spoke.

All their lives, women had always looked forward to having a romantic wedding ceremony that they could call their own.

The mere thought of the wedding got Joan to feel warm and fuzzy.

“We’ll have a grand wedding as soon as the baby is born. I will get you the most beautiful wedding gown, and you will be the most stunning bride,” replied Larry firmly as he looked into Joan’s eyes.
