Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

"How else would they react? Of course, they couldn't be happier for us. They agreed to us getting married and didn't say much else," Henry Armstrong declared.

A look of surprise appeared in Georgie Clementine's eyes. "Really?"

They had to go through tremendous mental struggles to convince Henry's parents to agree to the two of them dating, and suddenly, today, they agreed to the idea of them getting married without any qualms? She found that hard to believe as she knew that the Armstrong family wasn't particularly fond of her.

They only agreed at first because Henry insisted on being with her.

It seemed like they might only have agreed to their marriage because of her pregnancy.

Henry nodded. "It's true. Why would I lie to you? My mother also gave me the green light to take charge of everything.

"Most importantly, she doesn't know what your preferences are or your family traditions. Anyway, I told her I'll sort everything out. All they need to do is sign some cheques when the time comes," he continued. Naturally, he couldn't tell Georgie about a lot of things as he didn't want to upset her. Hence, he had to cover things up with white lies.

Georgie nodded absent-mindedly, not suspicious of anything.

She then turned her attention back to Xyla Quest and Annabeth Cates. "Let's get back to our topic. Is there anything else I need to know? I've got to remember everything."

Meanwhile, Henry also fell silent and paid full attention to the two women.

Right then, they were like two school students, eagerly paying attention in class.

Xyla couldn't resist laughing at their reaction before continuing to share her knowledge.

As she spoke, Henry was making notes on the notepad app on his phone, as if he was attending class.

Georgie was glad to see him taking this so seriously.

"Oh, right. The most important thing is-" Xyla paused dramatically.
