Another Chance for the Luna Queen by Aurora Starling

Chapter 0034

I stared at the reminder on my phone. How could I have forgotten such an important thing as my best friend’s birthday? Amanda must have been furious with me.

Was that the reason David had suck off to see her in the original timeline? Did he feel the need to cheer her up and show her that her birthday hadn’t been forgotten?

It didn’t excuse what they had done–they shouldn’t have been having an affair in the first place–but it did help me understand why they had acted the way they had and why they were most likely going to repeat those actions.

It also gave me an idea of how I could make sure to expose them. All I had to do was buy myself a little time. I needed to make sure somehow that the wedding, wouldn’t be official until the next day.

When we returned to the house, I hurried to my father’s study, where I knew he would be hard at work.

“Hello, darling,” he said brightly. “How did the wedding planning go?”

“It went well,” I replied, sitting in the seat across from him “We chose some very pretty flowers. David talked me out of roses, but I think the ones we got are just as nice.”

“Oh,” he said, surprised. “But aren’t roses your favorite flowers?”

“They are,” I confirmed. “But we decided to go with peonies and orchids instead to save a little bit of money. Plus, they’re more unique. Like Amanda pointed out, they fit my personality a little better.”

“As long as you’re happy with them,” he replied.

“I am. But actually, I had another question for you.”

“And what is that?” he asked, setting aside the paperwork he was doing and giving me his full attention.

“There’s so much to do with the wedding, I just don’t know how we’re going to have time for everything. So I wanted to ask your opinion about postponing the official marking ceremony until the next day. I know it may not be the most traditional way, but with such a large reception, I want to make sure all the guests can have a good time without feeling rushed.”

“That makes sense,” he said thoughtfully. “Is there any other reason you want to move it?”

“Honestly,” I said, smiling awkwardly, “I had hoped the marking ceremony might be a little more private, with only our immediate families there. So I thought we could hold it at another location after all the guests have left.”
