Beyond The Divorce - Season 8 Episode 66

*Should I call you Bro, then? Gosh, that sounds so basic. What about just Atlas? That’s what Chloe calls you. Come on, tell me what I should call you,” Ivanna protested, pinching his hands.

Atlas smirked and said, “She doesn’t call me Atlas. She calls me her husband.”

Lauren and Ivanna erupted into cheers, behaving like excited children and creating a lively atmosphere. Meanwhile, Jared glanced at Atlas with his usual calm demeanor and asked, “Did you propose? Is it time to get registered?”

Atlas proudly declared, “Yeah, I proposed, and my sweetheart agreed. We’ll get registered tomorrow.”

“Wow! Really?” The other two exclaimed again. The noise felt overwhelming. If the house didn’t have an upper floor, their excitement would’ve lifted the roof.

Ivanna quickly asked, “So, does that mean we’ll have a grand feast tomorrow? A marriage registration is a big deal. We should celebrate with a feast, right?”

Atlas played along. “Sure thing! Let’s all celebrate at Pleca Park tomorrow. Then, you can all just stay over.”

“Wow, that’s awesome!” Ivanna and Lauren high-fived, displaying childlike enthusiasm.

I didn’t expect Atlas to announce our marriage so quickly. I thought it would be our secret. Honestly, I hadn’t planned on revealing it to them so soon.

Ivanna sensed my thoughts, asking, “What’s wrong? Why would you want to keep it a secret from us?”

Lauren looked at me, too. “Are we strangers to you? I haven’t settled the score with you, and you’re already making mistakes?”

I felt a little overwhelmed by their attacks. It wasn’t that I wanted to keep it from them. I just had too much to handle and felt it wasn’t the right time to celebrate. I quickly looked at Atlas and said, “Can we keep the celebration small? I don’t want to make it public yet.”

Ivanna immediately retorted, “Why? It’s an important milestone in your life. Why not publicize it?”

There was a hitch in my heart. I wanted to welcome my father back and announce it publicly afterward. After all, my experiences had been extraordinary. I wanted my father to witness my moment of happiness. Besides, I thought keeping it low-key had its benefits.

Atlas smiled faintly. “Sure, let’s keep it small. I’ll organize a lovely wedding for you after everything has settled down.”

I knew he understood my thoughts when he said that. Update first at

“Um…” Ivanna looked at me enviously. “I need to catch up. You’re already on your second wedding, while I’ve yet to find my first husband. At least I can be your bridesmaid again.”

We all looked at Jared when Ivanna said that. He glanced at Ivanna, but Lauren intervened, “Enough talking. Let’s get on with dinner. Take your seats, and we’ll chat while eating.”

Before Jared sat down, he unexpectedly extended his arm and solemnly told Ivanna, “You’ll have one too. I’ll give you a wedding of the century.”

Ivanna now looked stunned and moved. Since Jared said such a thing, I figured he must’ve already planned something. He must really love Ivanna, or this usually private person would likely opt for a subtle wedding.

Additionally, if Jared could promise Ivanna a grand wedding with Trinity around, he must genuinely want to do it. Suddenly, I felt like I hadn’t seen Trinity for a long time. I wondered what she had been busy with lately.

She seemed to have hit it off with Stella at the party last time. I didn’t know anything about their current situation. If Jared and Ivanna had been in Bourdamun, it probably meant Trinity wasn’t in Foswood. If so, where could she be?
