Chapter 262
While everyone was getting ready for Adrian and Isabella’s wedding, Eugene arrived in Zentiscape. Stacey and Adrian went to the airport to pick up Eugene and brought him to Carter Villa When Eugene saw the beautiful house and garden of the Carter family, he was immediately captivated. Eugene was curious about everything, and Stacey had prepared all the information he was curious about. The flowers, plants, and house design were all different from Daprein’s and new to Eugene. But what captured his attention most was the childlike fairy garden.
The design was full of childlike concepts. The cheerful Lillian and Kevin ran from one play area to another with bright smiles on their faces, radiating a happy vibe at every moment. That kind of happiness was exactly what Eugene longed for in his heart. During his childhood, he had the same fairy tale dream as most children, but his dream was just a dream. It was not that Eugene came from a bad background. In fact, he came from an excellent background. However, the problem was that his parents were too demanding of him and had forced him to concentrate on studying since childhood. He was not allowed to participate in anything that children played. Eugene had achieved so much because his parents had been strict with him since childhood, but with achievements, his boring childhood left a wound in his heart.
When Eugene saw the playground built especially for Lillian and Kevin at the Garter Villa, where they were carefree and playing happily, Eugene found himself completely captivated without even realizing it. Soon, he even got an inspiration, not for adults, but for Lillian and Kevin, something wonderful and full of happiness and joy. Eugene suddenly laughed, took out his drawing board, set up his easel under the shade of the tree next to the garden, and began to draw.
Lillian and Kevin were curious, so they immediately ran over to see what Eugene was drawing. Eugene was also happy to see Lillian and Kevin ran to him. He turned around and said a few words to them in Dapreinish with a smile on his face. Unfortunately, neither Lillian nor Kevin understood
Dapreinish and could not understand Eugene immediately. However, it was not a big problem as Stacey had already prepared the interpreter because she knew Eugene would be coming. Now that the interpreter had been assigned a task, she immediately went to work interpreting for Eugene, Lillian, and Kevin. With an interpreter, Eugene could communicate more easily with Lillian and Kevin.
At first, Stacey was worried that Lillian and Kevin would disturb Eugene and wanted to stop them, but Hayden stopped her. Stacey then realized that Eugene seemed even happier with Lillian and Kevin than when he was with her and Hayden, and his happiness seemed to come from the bottom of his heart. Once Stacey understood it, she could also understand Eugene’s feeling that children were the most innocent people in the world. No matter how kind adults sometimes pretended to be, they would never be as pure as children. When adults interacted with other adults, they were subconsciously on guard, unable to open their hearts and be truly happy. However, the dynamic changed when they were with children. Most adults subconsciously let go of their guard and pretense when interacting with children. Consequently, adults were more genuine to themselves in their communication and interactions with children.
The next afternoon, Eugene was playing with Lillian and Kevin. At first, Lillian and Kevin surrounded Eugene, then Jeremy came over, then Mildred, and finally Ronald and Damian. Eugene, who had not experienced any inspiration in a long time, was suddenly filled with inspiration after visiting Zentiscape. He created several drawings at once, and the more he looked at them, the more he liked them.
A few days later, Eugene attended Adrian and Isabella’s wedding. The wedding was Clusian in style, with a bridal carriage. It was lively and beautiful, and Eugene was very captivated. The activities Stacey had arranged beforehand were completely unnecessary. Various Clusian style dresses and makeup already attracted Eugene.
Before the end of the year, Isabella and Adrian were to be married. Isabella’s family was not from that area. According to Isabella and Carly, they had planned to have the wedding at the hotel, but Adrian did not think it was a good idea. Adrian soon bought a small mansion in Alagua City. The house was registered in Isabella’s name. That mansion was their home in Alagua City, and it would always be. Whenever Isabella returned the mansion would be her home. Isabella was a little uncomfortable at first. She always felt it was wrong for her to take so many things from others just for the wedding, but in the end, Carly persuaded her. Carly told Isabella that Adrian was nice to her and she did not have to feel bad about it. It would not be good if Isabella rejected everything. If she really cared, she should have treated Adrian well, lived a good life, and stayed together as husband and wife. That was all that mattered.
Isabella and Adrian’s wedding was much easier because they had their own home. A professional photographer captured the scene of Isabella being greeted by Adrian in the bridal carriage, along with her wedding gifts. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Carly watched the video many times after the wedding. The more she watched it, the more she felt happy and relieved.

Isabella finally had a happy ending after so many years of hardship. Carly could not help but post the video of Isabella’s wedding on Twitter.
On that day, Carly decided to divorce her husband. She had married Connor many years ago because she had loved him. Later, Connor had despised her after an incident. Carly had believed it had been her fault, so she had endured it and gave in. At first, she had been very much in love with Connor and had hopes for their marriage and their feelings. She had hoped that being patient and giving in a little would make things easier for Connor and help keep their marriage from falling apart. However, year after year, Connor’s contempt for her had not diminished with time. Instead, their fights had gotten worse. Every day, they had argued and fought a cold war. Sometimes, they had even quarreled. In other words, Connor had been mean to her.
In the daily struggle, Carly’s love for Connor slowly disappeared. She had given up her expectations. She no longer hoped Connor could accept her again and no longer expected her relationship with Connor to be as innocent as it used to be. Later, Carly had only put up with everything for Ronald’s sake. She used to think a complete and perfect family had been good for Ronald. But after getting to know the Carter family, she realized a warm and happy home would have been more important for Ronald.
In such a joyful environment, people’s moods would involuntarily change for the better. Unlike her home with Connor, every time she returned to that home, she felt very depressed. It was pointless for Ronald to live in such an environment, to see his parents arguing, fighting, and complaining about each other every day. She could sense Ronald was happier those days when he came to the Carter family, and he smiled even more than he had in the past year
