"Be together..."
Evelyn was totally stunned. She stood there and didn't know how to react.
Elizabeth had just thrown away the bouquet. Before she turned around, she heard many people shouting in the crowd. She was taken aback, and then turned around after glancing at James.
It was so crowded and too many people surrounded Evelyn and Benjamin. Elizabeth looked at them for several seconds before understanding what had happened.
Benjamin and Evelyn were holding the bouquet together, and everyone was making a fuss about it...
Well...
She asked James who was next to her, "What's going on?"
James raised his eyebrows slightly and replied softly with a smile, "Evelyn went forward to catch the bouquet, but she got it together with Ben." Then, he smiled more brightly.
He grew up with Benjamin. Over the years, the relationship between them had been getting better and better. No one could force Benjamin to do something that he was unwilling to do.
Moreover, Ben had always been a person who didn't like noisy environment. He would never try to catch a bouquet. He thought that there were too many people, and he didn't like it, and he wasn't interested in such a thing.
As for why he went forward to catch the bouquet...
It seemed like Ben really was about to be enlightened.
No, it should be said that he had been enlightened. Ha-ha...
"Then what do they mean by saying this?" Elizabeth asked again.
James shrugged his shoulders and looked at Benjamin who was standing in the crowd with a calm face, "Everyone thinks that the one who gets the bouquet will be lucky and meet his lover, so they are interested when they see two people get it together."
Hearing this, Elizabeth laughed out loud, "These people are really funny. Although they all want good luck, they say so..." She thought for a while and couldn't think of a better excuse, so she changed her words, "Can they really be together after catching the bouquet?"
She didn't think that Evelyn and Benjamin were not suitable for each other. She just felt that it was absurd.
They didn't know each other at all. In fact, she felt that Benjamin was a bit indifferent. Besides, should they be together just because they had got the bouquet? What about Lawrence?
"Whether they can be together or not depends on their fate. Maybe..." James thought for two seconds and then said, "Maybe they can really be with each other."
"What about Lawrence?"
"They have not been in a relationship yet, have they? Besides, even if they're dating, they haven't got married."
"Don't talk so much. Evelyn must be embarrassed now. Hurry up and think of a way to let her come out first."
James did not move, but took Elizabeth's hand and stood aside, "Don't worry. Ben will handle it well."
At the same time, Evelyn's face blushed scarlet. Watching everyone hooting, she was at a loss and felt very anxious.
What the hell was going on?
They wanted her, and Benjamin to be together just because they had got the bouquet?
She sneered in heart...
Were those people idiots?
They didn't know the relationship between her and Benjamin. She owed him money. Be together? Stop kidding!
Even if she didn't owe him money, it was possible for them to be together. Benjamin were not easy-going at all. How could she like such a person? He was rich, but so what? As long as she could afford to raise herself, she didn't have to live a rich life.
At this time, so many people were kicking up a fuss, but he stood there like a fool. What was wrong? Did he enjoy this feeling?
It seemed that she had used too much strength, so... she couldn't keep her balance and was about to fall down.
But the next second, someone held her waist and pulled her into his arms.
Evelyn didn't fall down, but she was still so awkward and anxious, because at this moment, she was lying in a person's arms. That person... seemed to be a man.
Her face was hot, but it was an emergency and she couldn't care about anything else. She struggled to stand up, and then turned to the man and said, "Thank you."
"Mm."
Evelyn was taken aback for a moment. Although it was only a simple word, she felt that the voice sounded a little familiar.
She turned around and her body suddenly froze. The man she was leaning against was precisely Benjamin!
It was really depressing!
Originally, she wanted to stand a little further away from him, but she was in his arms...
She was closer to him, wasn't she?
She didn't speak to him in a friendly tone a few minutes ago. But if he hadn't helped her in time and she had fallen to the ground, how embarrassed would she be at this moment?
"You..." Evelyn pursed her lips and said with a dry smile, "Thank you."
Benjamin stared at her for a while, "Don't you want the bouquet very much?"
Evelyn was dumbfounded, "What's... wrong?" If she didn't want it, why should she come here? Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so embarrassed, right?
"Then why do you want to run?"
