The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 737

After calling out to each other, Zachary and Sophia exchanged a smile, their eyes full of warmth.

Zachary reached out his hand, and Sophia placed hers in his without hesitation.

"I'm entrusting the rest of my life to you," Sophia said softly.

Zachary replied, "Don't worry, Mrs. Holt. You'll have me for the rest of your life."

Zachary's voice trembled slightly. Then, standing at the entrance of the courthouse, he pulled Sophia into a firm embrace. They stayed in each other's arms for a long while before getting into the car hand in hand and leaving together.

Back at Sophia's house, she didn't bother packing her things. After all, Zachary lived just across the hall, and she could come and go between her family home and her husband's anytime she pleased.

"Sophia, Zachary. Edmund, Samantha, and I have discussed the arrangements for the wedding banquet. We've got everything prepared. Take a look and let us know if you want to change anything. The three of us can adjust it."

The moment they returned, Luna pulled Sophia aside.

"Sophia, the three of us agreed that it's better to hold the banquet soon since you want a honeymoon trip. Dragging it out will just leave us parents feeling unsettled. And I'm sure Zachary would be unsettled too.

"More importantly, we just want you to be happy and chase your dreams as soon as possible."

"Mother, I have no objections," Sophia said softly. Having gotten their marriage certificate, it felt natural for her to call Luna "Mother".

"Sophia, here's your welcome gift." Luna beamed, pulling a thick stack of cash from her purse and stuffing it into Sophia's hand.

"Come on, darling," she called to Edmund with a grin. "Sophia just officially called me 'Mother.' Where's your welcome gift? It's time for her to call you 'Father' too!"

Chuckling, Edmund fished another thick stack of cash from his jacket pocket and walked over. "Alright, my turn. Let's hear it."

Sophia blushed, her voice barely above a whisper. "Father."

"Yes! That's what I'm talking about!" Edmund laughed heartily, so loud that it filled the whole room. "Honey, did you hear that? She called me Father! Hahaha!"

Behind them, Samantha and Jonathan's whole family just stared, speechless.
