14:32 Wed, 19 Mar OM Chapter 350 Chapter 350 As everyone laughed at Edward being playfully teased, two cars pulled up, one after the other.
Timothy stepped out first, with Jerfollowing behind, holding the camera lens Edward had found in his room.
Everyone's eyes instinctively turned to the car Jerwas in. Fortunately, Bellina didn't step out from the front passenger seat.
"Timothy, Jerome," Joycelyn said, feeling a little awkward as she stood between Ellison and Edward. Wanting to avoid any tension, she quickly greeted Jerand moved to his side.
"Ah!" Edward realized once again that he had been outsmarted by Joycelyn.
He couldn't help himself though, always trying to push Ellison's buttons.
"Got the lens? Lettry it out," Edward said, quickly looking for any excuse to avoid Ellison's watchful gaze. His attempt to change the subject didn't go unnoticed, and the others couldn't help but laugh.
"Jerome, since you're here, how about we take a childhood photo together?" Joycelyn suggested, pulling out her phone. She had found an old picture on the Schultz family photo wall, taken on her mother's birthday, with the siblings individually photographed as children.
She wanted to recreate it.
Jerhesitated slightly, still holding the camera gear box in his hands, his handsface clouded with uncertainty.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtClearly, he hadn't expected to be asked to stay for a photo after delivering the lens.
"Con, Jerome, let's go," Joycelyn said, pulling him toward the others.
The brothers didn't show any visible reaction. They all moved closer, arranging themselves around the photo, reminiscing about their old poses.
The old photo featured Timothy sitting with Joycelyn on his lap, Jerstanding beside them, with the other siblings in the back.
The photographer hadn't arrived yet, so Ellison stepped in, taking the camera from Edward's hands. Shirley stood nearby, guiding them on their poses and expressions.
"This may look like seven people in the picture, but actually, it's eight," Timothy said with a smile, patting the seat beside him.
Joycelyn walked over, just as she did when she was a child, sitting on his lap.
Jerome, standing beside Timothy, half-squatted as he looked at the scene, clearly surprised.
"Is Joycelyn... pregnant?" "Yes, she hasn't announced it yet, still keeping it a secret for now," Timothy replied without hesitation.
Jerome's eyes lit up with excitement, though no one noticed it.
"Jerome, you need to do the 'yeah' pose," Joycelyn reminded him.
Jerraised his other hand and gave a small 'yeah' gesture, while Ellison clicked the shutter. Chapter 350 The photo, taken over a decade later, perfectly mirrored the original one.
Looking at the picture, Joycelyn felt like she was speaking to her younger self.
"Great! Let's take a few more," Joycelyn said as she stood up from Timothy's lap.
"Sit in the middle," Timothy suggested, moving aside to make space for her.
The six brothers stood around her like bodyguards, exuding an aura that made them seem like real-life heirs to a fortune.
The moment felt like a scene straight out of a , the family united and full of warmth.
After a quick costchange, they didn't bother with new outfits, opting instead to change locations and capture more moments at various scenic spots, under the photographer's guidance. They spent about an hour taking many beautiful photos, reminiscent of a magazine photoshoot.
An hour later, Jerome's phone started ringing incessantly. It was clear-Bellina was starting to hurry him along In the past, Jerwould answer her calls immediately, never letting a moment slip by. But now, when he saw the phone ringing, he simply silenced it and put it in his pocket.
"Jerome, it's probably Bellina pushing you," Joycelyn observed, sensing his dilemma. "Why don't you head back for now? We can always take more photos next time." Just as she spoke, a stylist arrived with a mobile wardrobe, bringing with them many beautiful outfits.
However, Jerwas clearly tangled up with Bellina. He was the type of person who couldn't be firm and say no to her.
Timothy sent the photos taken earlier to Jerome's phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No matter what, I'll always be behind you, supporting you," Timothy said, his tone much softer than before, patting Jeron the back.
Jerome's eyes becmoist, and he nodded, his voice hoarse, "Thank you." Joycelyn stepped forward and gave him a warm hug, whispering, "Jerome, we'll always be family. You're one of us."
She took a moment to adjust his suit and shirt, her smile soft and kind in Jerome's eyes, it was the kind of warmth that felt almost unreal, so close yet so out of reach. "Jerome, go take care of your things. I'll make sure to send you a little gift and start your own fund," Jeff added. "You've been married before, so you know more than us," Zack said with a mischievous grin, nudging Shirley.
"I have my own ways," Shirley replied calmly, her voice full of commanding presence.
Jeff laughed awkwardly, and the group continued talking, all while Jerstood at a distance, sensing the shift in the air.
"I'll head out now. Have fun," Jersaid quickly, trying to leave before he found himself reluctant to go.
With that, he turned and quickly walked to his car, answering Bellina's call as he got in.
"I'll be back soon," he said before hanging up and starting the engine.
As he drove away, Joycelyn sighed softly.
From the moment she met Jerome, she knew how deeply he cared for Bellina. But now seeing th them marry, she couldn't help but wonder how things would unfold for him. 14:32 Wed, 19 Mar Chapter 350 "Will Jerbe happy?" Joycelyn whispered, her gaze lingering, unfocused.
She wasn't so sure. It seemed like Jerwas a puppet controlled by Belliewer Bellina. Perhaps, after all these years, his love for Bellina wasn't love at all but a way to transfer his grief. What was once a childhood wound had now beca kind of self- destructive obsession. AD Comment Send gift No Ads
