Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 792 - 790_1

Her eyelids felt heavy, the God of Sleep beckoning.

I should rest for a bit, Julia thought, closing her eyes and allowing herself to drift into dreamland.

It was already noon, almost time for her midday nap.

In her tranquil sleep, she was as pure and beautiful as an angel. Her long eyelashes rested quietly upon her eyes, and her small, glossy lips were a temptation to Glades Horne. Even without makeup, her natural beauty was unmistakable. She was a true beauty. Despite being in her early thirties and almost a mother of two, she remained lovely, now with an added maturity and assertiveness. Her confidence made her radiate, and even Noah Reyes couldn't help but admire her.

"Honey."

Glades Horne called from the kitchen.

Not hearing a response, Glades called out again, "Julia, the food's ready. Come and wash your hands."

Still, there was no reply. Glades quickly set the plated noodles on the dining table and hurried out, only to find her deep in slumber.

He couldn't help but chuckle. This girl, he thought. She said she was hungry, yet here she is, dreaming about the God of Sleep while I made her food.

He walked over to her. Instead of waking her, he gently lifted her into his arms, letting her rest her head on his shoulder.

In the quiet villa, the couple snuggled peacefully.

「Elsewhere.」

Adele Horne nestled shyly in Noah's embrace.

Noah Reyes held her contentedly. He had truly set his heart at ease this time, for she had given herself to him, body and soul.

I can finally reunite our family of three, he believed.

Next, I need to prepare for our wedding, he thought. Glades Horne demanded I give Adele a wedding that will cause a sensation throughout the city. I will definitely make it happen.

"I'm up."

Adele stepped out of his embrace and spoke softly, her eyes cast down.

Noah Reyes chuckled softly, pulling her close again. "Feeling shy?" he teased.

Instantly, Adele's face turned an even deeper shade of red.

Downstairs, the entire Horne family was waiting for the two of them to come down.

But the Hornes were shrewd. Seeing the alluring glint in Adele's eyes, they understood immediately, and sly smiles touched their lips.

It seemed Adele, the one they had worried about the most and been most uneasy about, had finally found her happy ending.

Next, they began to discuss the wedding plans for the couple.

However, there was another matter to address: Jimmy Horne's name change.

Once they married, Jimmy would become the legitimate heir of his generation in the Reyes family. As such, he would naturally have to take the Reyes surname. As for the name 'Jimmy,' 'Jimmy Reyes' didn't seem to sound very good. So Noah, as his father, thought of choosing a new given name for his son himself.

He had missed his son's birth, his naming, and five years of his childhood. Now, being able to rename his son himself, he felt this was the greatest and happiest of matters.

Changing Jimmy's surname was quite normal, and everyone could accept it. But changing his given name? The adults felt they were used to calling him Jimmy, and changing it would feel a bit unfamiliar.

However, since Noah Reyes was his father and he wanted to change his son's given name as well as his surname, everyone respected his decision.

In the following days, the Horne family picked a date and began preparing for Adele and Noah's wedding.

During the day, Noah Reyes would go on dates with Adele, occasionally bringing their son, the little 'third wheel,' along. At night, he would burn the midnight oil, thinking of a new name for his son.

His son would one day inherit the position of Family Head, so he wanted to choose a somewhat domineering name for him.

Sunrises and sunsets marked the passing of days; in the blink of an eye, another week had gone by.

The children would soon return to school.

The weather was no longer as cold as it had been over the New Year.

Occasionally, the smiling sun would peek through the clouds, making the temperature somewhat warmer. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Winter was passing, and spring was fast approaching.

The earth was renewing, and all things were quietly awakening. Trees budded anew, grass turned green again, and the geese returned.

Julia, her belly nearly seven months pregnant, walked alongside Rachel on a tree-lined path in Golden Kirin Garden. The four children played ahead of them. As per Glades Horne's orders, two bodyguards followed behind the two young mistresses to prevent any accidents.

"Jimmy Horne, are you really going to change your name?" Suddenly, Camila Ruiz stopped and asked Jimmy, raising her delicate eyebrows.

My arch-rival is changing his name? she thought, finding it a bit strange.

Jimmy Horne glanced at her disdainfully and responded irritably, "Why, are you jealous?"

Pah! Camila rolled her eyes. What's there to be jealous about a name change?

"Jimmy Reyes doesn't sound good at all," she continued.

Jimmy's expression turned a little unhappy. He also felt that after changing back to his father's surname, his current name wouldn't sound good. And I still don't know what good name Dad will come up with for me, he thought.

"What name do you think sounds good then?" Jimmy retorted, annoyance lacing his tone.

"Chalkboard," Camila blurted out without a second thought.

Jimmy's face instantly clouded over.

Nearby, Ivan Horne couldn't help but snicker, laughing secretly.

Florence Ford wanted to laugh too, but seeing the dark expression on her young master's face, she managed to suppress it with great effort.

Julia and Rachel paid no attention to the children's conversation, showing no reaction.

"Stinky Camila, are you mocking me?" Jimmy, nearly five years old, reverted to his more aggressive nature when facing Camila.

The adults had hoped that as they grew older, their relationship would improve, or at least they wouldn't bicker every time they met. Unfortunately, it was still the same.

"That's the only name I could think of. Don't like it? Then how about 'Chief Blackcat'? That's imposing!" Camila said with a slight smile, her two small dimples faintly visible. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with mischief, clearly taking this chance to thoroughly tease her arch-nemesis.
