The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 1209

Brittany was on the fence about the whole situation, "I mean, I'm pregnant now, throwing a wedding might be a bit of a hassle."

She and Isaac hadn't really broached the subject of a wedding yet.

Hannah pouted, "What's so great about having a wedding anyway? I'm not interested."

She and Derek had a shotgun wedding.

Derek, on the other hand, was all for having a wedding, but she shut that idea down quickly. Instead of splurging on a wedding, she argued, why not save the money for the baby.

Kari couldn't help but laugh, "The Bishop family running short on cash?"

Derek was anything but poor.

Raising a kid was just a drop in the bucket for him.

"My main issue is I don't want my wedding to be a networking event," Hannah admitted. "You know, both our families have their names out there. It'll just turn into a social gathering, which I'm not up for." Kari nodded in agreement, "Fair point."

"And you and Ronald Malone have been together for quite a while now, thinking of tying the knot?"

The mention of it made Kari hesitate.
