Chapter 1247: Finn is one lucky man.

In the end, Mint joined Penny and Lily as they waited for Nina to come out.

"Uh... I didn't think waiting to see a wedding dress would take forever," Mint mumbled, checking her wristwatch. "Are you sure she's still alive?"

"That's because the dresses are delicate," Lily explained knowingly. "So they're being careful not to damage the dress or the bride-to-be."

"Oh..." Mint then leaned forward, her head still turned toward Lily, but her eyes were on Penny. "Penny, don't you want to try anything here? I'll pay for it, just promise me you'll wear it at our wedding."

"Mint, didn't you say you were sorry about last time?" Penny shot back. "And that you'd behave yourself?"

"I did, but you just keep making me fall for you! It's not my fault that I have such high standards, and you meet all of them effortlessly!"

"Oh, wow..." Lily was in awe, looking back and forth between them. "Wow. I am... Penny, are you sure you don't want both a husband and a wife?"

Penny deadpanned. "My husband will hate you if you say that."

"Tch!" Lily clicked her tongue, thinking of Zoren. "Why isn't he a simpleton? I'm sorry, Mint. I'm team Zoren-Penny."

"It's okay, Lily. I'm team Mint-Penny."

"Oh, god..." Penny shook her head with a sigh. Mint, on the other hand, grinned ear to ear while Lily zipped her mouth.

"Oops." Lily suddenly felt her handbag vibrating and took out her phone. "You two... it's okay if I leave you for a bit, right? I need to take this call—it's Mother Superior from the orphanage."

With that, Lily hurried to the corner of the boutique to answer the call. As she did, Penny and Mint kept their eyes on her.

"I wonder what she's like when she visits the orphanage," Penny mused, knowing Lily wasn't exactly the most pious person, despite spending so much time with the sisters. "I'm a little worried she's influencing them instead of the other way around."

"Don't worry. She wears very conservative clothes when she's there," Mint assured her.

Penny arched a brow. "And how do you know that?"

"I had her followed the other day. I was curious."

"That is illegal."
