Chapter 894

When Cassius and Chasel tied the knot in Bastan, the news spread like wildfire through their families, despite their efforts to keep it under wraps.

Within a day, everyone knew.

Even though Chasel was already considered the perfect addition to the Ashbourne family, the fact that it was two men getting married still sent shockwaves through their relatives.

The following evening, Cassius and Chasel, hand in hand, faced Cassius's father, Emeric, and Aunt Suri.

All Ashbournes rushed over, fearing the couple might face a barrage of questions. "Why didn't you tell me about such a big decision?!"

As expected, his tone was stern, his displeasure evident.

Chasel, towering yet suddenly seeming small beside his brother, barely breathed, gripping his partner's hand tightly.

The very picture of a nervous spouse.

"Dad, it was all my idea," Cassius declared, standing tall and protective, their hands intertwined, "I planned everything, even keeping Chasel in the dark until the very last minute before proposing. If you're to blame anyone, blame me, not him. But there's one thing that's irrevocable."

His gaze softened as he looked at Chasel, cheeks flushed with emotion, "Chasel and I are married now. He's my life partner, the only love of my life."

"Congratulations, brother! Well done!" Evadne immediately turned cheerleader, clapping to lighten the mood and ward off any further criticism from Emeric.

She nudged Thaddeus, signaling him to join in the applause.

Emeric, visibly exasperated, pinched the bridge of his nose, his expression a mix of frustration and sadness:

"Cassius, do you not trust me? Do you really think I haven't fully accepted Chasel?"

The room fell silent, the couple stunned.

"By going behind my back, even after making such a scene yesterday, aren't you just proving you think I disapprove of your relationship?" Emeric's voice cracked slightly, his eyes reddening.
