Chapter 3816
“Let’s go see how they’re doing,” Serenity said to Kiera. Although she couldn’t participate in the children’s activities, she was happy to watch them play. Kiera, who loved having fun, was glad to accompany her. They followed Rowan and Sonny.
“When are you and Young Master Bucham getting married?” Serenity asked, glancing at Kiera.
Kiera blushed slightly and replied, “Julian wants it to happen soon, but I still feel young, so I’m not in a rush.” After a moment, she added, “But I trust him completely, and my whole family likes him.”
Serenity smiled. “I’ve heard Julian made quite an impression on your family. Mr. and Mrs. Bucham are also quite easygoing. They’ve been looking forward to having a daughter-in-law for a long time.”
The Bucham parents were indeed approachable around familiar faces. With the strong bond between the York and Bucham families, they treated Serenity like a member of their own family, making her feel at ease.
Julian’s situation was unique; he could only see Kiera as the woman meant for him. He wanted to get married, start a family, and fully embrace his role as a husband and father. Mr. and Mrs. Bucham understood this and supported his choice. Since Julian found his perfect match in Kiera, they were more than happy to welcome her into the family.
Kiera was exactly the kind of daughter-in-law they had hoped for—strong, skilled, and self-reliant. The Caron family’s martial arts school attracted students from all over the world, making Kiera not only capable but also respected. Anyone who considered troubling her would think twice. Her strength and confidence made her the ideal partner for Julian.
Julian’s parents, having faced years of uncertainty, were relieved to see their son so happy.
Regarding his future, Julian’s parents were open to any partner he chose, regardless of age or background. They never expected their son to find someone like Kiera—young, beautiful, confident, and talented in both academics and self-defense. Her family background was also commendable. To Mr. and Mrs. Bucham, it felt as if their ancestors were blessing them by ensuring Julian met Kiera.
Serenity continued, “Young Master Bucham is deeply committed to you, and you are both at an ideal age for marriage. Since you love each other, there’s no harm in tying the knot sooner. I imagine he’s feeling a bit anxious—after all, he isn’t getting any younger.”
Julian was only a year younger than Duncan, which made his eagerness understandable.
Kiera nodded in agreement. “He wants us to obtain the marriage certificate first and then select a good date for the wedding.”
The Bucham family had already sent a formal betrothal gift to Kiera’s family. During their initial visit, Mr. and Mrs. Bucham presented a generous gift, but the Caron family initially declined it. Once Kiera and Julian’s relationship became stable and both families approved, the Buchams added even more gifts to the betrothal package, which the Caron family eventually accepted.
The extravagant gifts from the Bucham family demonstrated how much they valued this union.
