《MYTHICAL DESCENDANT: Married to Mr. Fox》Chapter 7: THE WEDDING RECEPTION
Advertisement
After they read the marriage vows, the officiant said, "Now I declare you are lawful as husband and wife." Hearing the announcement from the officiant, Jayden's parents applauded happily. Aubrey and Damian also applauded, as did all the guests present.
"Groom, please kiss your wife as a sign of love and affection."
Ember just looked down in embarrassment. Jayden was confused. What should I do? On which part should I kiss her? Kiss her lips? No, impossible. That's too intimate for me to do. Cheek? also impossible. Forehead? No, no, no. Not on her face. Knuckle? Yes, that was a body part. I thought I could kiss her.
Jayden took Ember's hand in his and kissed her knuckle. Ember was relieved that Jayden had just kissed her knuckle. She is not ready to be kissed on the other parts of her body. After Jayden kissed Ember's knuckle, they all clapped.
Thereafter, they celebrated the wedding. Ember just sat in silence, Jayden leaving her alone to meet his friends. Aubrey came to Ember when she saw Ember was sitting alone.
"Ember, congratulations, you're married. I hope I'll get married in the future. Ember, your husband is very handsome."
Aubrey was excited and happy for Ember's wedding. But Ember is not sure between her and Jayden. She wasn't sure if they could be close like husband and wife. Seeing Jayden's cold appearance is like seeing a man who doesn't like being touched by anyone, and his good-looking appearance makes him surrounded by women. Ember was scared.
"I'm not sure if we can be close. Just looking at him, I feel like there's something wrong with this guy. Maybe he's had a lot of mistresses, or maybe he's a rude guy."
"Hey, you're thinking negatively. Don't just look at first appearances. Maybe he was a gentle person. A guy knows how to respect and appreciate a woman."
Ember nodded her head while Aubrey was nagging. She was confused with her feelings. She's only able to see the negative side. Of course, she's hoping Jayden is a nice guy. But her heart is still affected by her past relationship with her previous ex-boyfriend.
While Jayden talks with other guests, Jayden's friend comes to him and congratulates him on being a husband.
"Jayden, congratulations, you've become someone's husband." His friend has blond hair, short hair, and blue eyes.
"Cyrus, are you mocking me?"
"Of course not, you are very lucky. Your wife is very beautiful. If only I had a wife as beautiful as her. If you didn't want her, you could give her to me."

Cyrus complimented Jayden, but he felt Cyrus was teasing him at the same time. Jayden frowned, looking at him. Cyrus burst out laughing because he was only joking.
"Okay, okay, I was just kidding. Don't take it seriously."
"Your joke is getting on my nerves."
"Oh come on, why so serious? I just want to see how much you care for your wife. "
After Cyrus finished his sentence, he laughed aloud, and Jayden just shook his head, because sometimes he doesn't understand what's inside his mind.
Camilla went to see Ember, who was sitting down drinking wine alone.
"Ember, are you okay? Why are you drinking alone? Where is Jayden?"
Ember turned her head to her right. Jayden was drinking with his friends. She and Jayden have not said a single word since the wedding started. They're like strangers. Camilla realises the situation and feels guilty about it.
"Ember, after this, you will live in the mansion with Jayden. I don't live with you. The mansion belongs to Jayden. I hope you two can get along with each other. Okay?"
"Yes, mom, don't worry." She's not sure if she can get along with Jayden, but she'll try.
After a few hours of the wedding reception, all the guests were home except for them. Ember went to the dressing room to change clothes. While Jayden is waiting for Ember, Camilla comes to him.
"My dear, please treat Ember well. I hope both of you can get along with each other. Don't ignore her. Treat her as your wife, not a stranger, okay? If you hurt her, I won't forgive you."
Jayden sighed and replied, "Yes, mom."
After Ember finished changing clothes, she went out of the dressing room and went to see them. Damian saw her and came to see her.
"Ember, after this, you will live with your husband. Be a good wife. I know you're mature enough to be someone's wife."
"Okay, Papa, you don't have to worry about that. Papa, I'm not around anymore. Please take good care of yourself during my absence. Eat properly and don't ever skip a meal."
Ember was sad, and tears fell down her cheek. Damian hugged her and clammed her down. Jayden looked at them and felt guilty, as if he had kidnapped someone else's daughter.
"Ember, you should go; your husband is waiting," Damian told her, with a heavy expression on his face.
At that moment, Jayden was with Xander. Aubrey came up to them with a drunk face and said,

"You, Jayden, right? Please take good care of Ember. If I find you hurting her, I won't let you live in peace. Do you hear me?"
They were both shocked to look at Aubrey, because at that moment, Aubrey was talking to Xander instead of Jayden. Camilla saw the situation and came closer to them.
"Oh my, Aubrey, it looks like you're drunk. You're going home with us. We'll send you home."
"Ooh, beautiful madam, don't worry, I'll be back on my own."
After that, Aubrey walked towards the bush. All of them were stunned. Ember was worried, and she ran towards Aubrey and pulled her hand.
"Aubrey, you're drunk. Why do you drink so much?"
"I'm not drunk, Ember. I'm still fine. I can still drink. Give me another glass of wine, please."
Xander can't take anymore of Aubrey's behavior, so he comes towards her and carries her.
"Oh! You're Ember's husband. Why are you carrying me? Put me down, put me down!"
But Xander ignored her and kept walking towards Camilla. "Madam, where should I take her?"
"Xander, get her in the car."
Xander heads to Camilla's car and places Aubrey in the back seat. But suddenly, Aubrey pulled and grabbed Xander's neck and looked him in the eyes.
"You're not Ember's husband, you're a pervert."
Xander was taken aback and frowned when Aubrey called him a pervert. But Aubrey fell asleep after saying that to Xander. Xander let go of her hand and sighed.
Jayden chuckled, watching Xander being called a pervert. Ember was shocked to see Jayden's expression. She thought he didn't know how to smile. Jayden noticed Ember staring at him and changed his facial expression, pretending not to chuckle.
"Jayden, Ember, we'll go back home first. Both of you, be nice to each other, okay?" Camilla reminded them one more time, and then she got into the car with Fabian.
"Ember, see you again." Damian spoke to her with a gloomy face.
"Bye-bye papa."
Ember replied with a fake smile; she didn't want to show Damian she was sad. Damian turned around and left them. Ember was unhappy to see her father step away from her. Jayden looked at her. He knew Ember was sad to see her father leave her, but it was normal. He can't do anything about that. Because Ember should live with him and start a family with him.
"Master, we need to go now." Xander, who remained silent, spoke up. Jayden looks at Ember. He hesitantly wanted to speak with Ember, but he forced himself. He speaks to Ember for the first time.
"Hmm, you, we need to go back now."
Ember looked at Jayden. Did he just call me 'you'? Why is he not calling my name? Did he hate me until he didn't want to call my name? She felt Jayden was a weird person.
Ember gets into the car when Jayden opens the door for her. They both sat in the back without saying a word all the way back to the mansion. Upon arriving at the mansion, Jayden went down, followed by Ember. Jayden walked towards the mansion door, Ember following him from behind. Inside the mansion, three housemaids greeted them.
"Welcome back, sir and ma'am."
"Show her where our room is." Jayden told the housemaid.
"Ma'am, let me show you your room." And the maid led Ember all the way to their room.
Ember followed the housemaid from behind and went upstairs. The maid opened the door and said,
"Ma'am, this is your room with Sir Jayden."
The room was decorated in pink. Ember was shocked when she saw the room. Is this man a girly person? Why all pink? The maid noticed Ember's reaction.
"Ma'am, sir, Jayden decorated this room specially for you. He doesn't know what color you like, so he chose pink, considering you're a female."
After Ember hears the maid's explanation, she thinks he's kind of cute. Not all females like pink. He has an innocent mind. He's like, he didn't care about her, but he still decorated the room for her. She was happy.
"Ma'am, on the left side is your wardrobe. This right side belongs to Sir Jayden. Sir Jayden arranged his clothes and emptied the left wardrobe for you. He bought all these clothes specially for you."
It surprised Ember to see her wardrobe full of beautiful clothes. Everything has been arranged neatly. He's so considerate, she feels moved. She feels guilty for thinking negatively about him.
"And this is the bathroom connected to this dressing room. Ma'am, is there anything you want to ask?"
"Hmm... what is your name?"
"My name is Kyla." Kyla had short black hair and brown eyes.
"Thank you, Kyla. You can go now."
"Good night, ma'am." Kyla smiled and left her alone.
