Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling - Chapter 656: Twins
After six months. An hour before the wedding at half-past three in the evening.
The mothers of the brides and grooms were making double checks on every arrangement. The fathers of the brides and grooms were busy taking care of their wives running around under the sun.
They had left all the arrangements for the brides and grooms to decide for five months. As the dates neared, they realized their children were doing nothing but romancing each day without doing any work for the wedding.
When the days got closer, mothers had to do something looking at their kids confused and fickle about each wedding idea they were coming with. Both couples didn’t fight but weren’t happy with any idea the other one was chosen. So the mothers became the wedding planners and organizers.
Everything was planned and arranged in twenty days while their kids weren’t only busy with romancing, they had conglomerate to take care of.
Yes, you are right. The President of Morgan Industries was Arsh Morgan, who took over the position in high glory. The CEO of Skyline was Ivan Ross, the most eligible, anticipated man on the chair.
When the wedding was pushed to six months, Aria let Ivan to take control on the day Arsh took over. The best friends were on the throne to rule the business world together.
Not just men. Women didn’t back down when it came to their careers. Arna Morgan, the designer proved her worth and celebrated her success party with high demand. She got the best business offer from Skyline with complete authority over her brand.
Noor Wood’s works were splendid. Her great hospitality with the reputed and international clients drove more and more clients to Woods international asking for her guidance. The company sang compliments for her success while all she was doing was give her best, complete work soon, just to run back to the cozy cuddling arms.
The double wedding was a destination wedding on a beautiful island. The island had unique Greece style architecture. The landscape was in elevation, Each building and villa were painted in pure white and the small tombs and roof were cobalt blue color.
Nearly half of the island was reserved for privacy for all the guests. Despite it being a double wedding, both had different backdrops and themes. The wedding will be one after the other.

In the room, Rooney was in a sky blue suit of the best man outfit. He watched Arsh and Ivan. Ivan was in a white three-piece suit, looking the best he ever could. He was all cool, looking at himself in the full-length mirror.
Rooney’s eyes shifted to the man who was pacing to and fro. He felt dizzy looking at him. “Bro… I told you, Noor is excited. She isn’t as nervous as you think.”
Arsh snapped at the door guard, that’s Rooney, “I don’t believe you. Let me go and see her once.”
Ivan chuckled hearing Arsh repeat the same, “Arsh, is that an excuse to see your bride?”
Caught.
Arsh snorted. He knew Noor wasn’t nervous. She was jumping in joy when he took her to the beach after breakfast.
“…” Rooney who was left to hold the two grooms in the room. Especially Arsh who could jump out of the window to have a glimpse of his bride.
Ivan chuckled as he grabbed Arsh’s dark blue blazer and helped him wear it. Straightening the shoulder of the blazer, Ivan tried to reason with his friend, “Snow wants me to see her on the aisle first. I think Noor is the same.” The brides hadn’t shown their wedding gowns to them.
Arsh didn’t respond but knew he always agrees if it’s Noor’s wish. “My mobile.” He demanded.
Rooney threatened, “Ask Big Mom.” He had confiscated the mobiles.
Ivan and Rooney chuckled looking at Arsh having no patience to wait for a few more minutes.

Meanwhile, at a different end of the hotel, Roxy, Naira, Jasmine, and Rose silently watched the two brides getting ready with the help of a stylist. After the makeup by the makeup artist, Arna gave a little touch-up for herself and Noor.
Jasmine murmured to her mother and future mother-in-law, “Mom, Mom, I had thought they would be nervous. I had read so many inspirational lines for them.”
“Noor, you are stunning. My brother will fall for you all over again.” Snow hugged Noor, being careful about their hair and makeup.
Noor was admiring Arna, “Sister Snow, you are gorgeous.” She exclaimed. “The gown looks so much better on you.”
Jasmine murmured, munching some dried berries, “Too bad. Brother Ivan will find it bothersome later.”
Rose smacked her daughter who was going to say Ivan would prefer Arna without a dress. “Mooom.” She whined.
Roxy and Noor giggled while Arna was speechless for a second. When Arna saw Noor giggling, she teasingly whispered near Noor’s ear, “Oh my sweet sister-in-law, your husband might tear off your gown. Be careful.”
Noor flushed instantly and sat on the sofa ignoring her. The more she tried to remove the thoughts, she was flushed like a cooked lobster.
Arna regretted saying it after looking at Noor all red. She got into distracting her as they chatted merrily.

The guests of the wedding had to urge the three couples to get ready else they would look odd and unorganized in their kids’ wedding.
The three couples rushed to their rooms and quickly got ready. There were helpers for the hair and make-up so it didn’t take long for the couple to reach the venue of the first wedding.

It was five in the evening, The sun was threatening to leave them in the dark when everyone gathered at the beach of black soil. The white veil coiled around the wooden arch was fluttering in the wind causing ripples of sound with the rushing waves of the sea hitting the shore. The white roses in the pots and vases were arranged beautifully. The decor was simple with the wooden chairs yet everything looked elegant and wondrous against the sea.
Everyone turned to the aisle made of wood. Finn Stanley walked the Aisle. He was going to officiate the wedding at Arna’s request. Then the best man walked with a faint smile on his face. Then came the handsome groom, Ivan Ross.
“My Son.” Eva adored her son.
“Our Son.” Isaac corrected her.
Eva ignored her husband and sent a flying kiss to Ivan and held Isaac’s hand. “He is as handsome as you.” Isaac patted her hand and waited for the bride holding their breath.
All exclaimed when they caught a man in a dark olive green suit walking by the gorgeous bride in a shimmering white wedding gown.
Instead of just using the small aisle, Alan was escorting his daughter from the hotel, alighting the stairs.
“My Goddess, I am finally stealing your daughter.” Eva voiced to Aria who was emotionally looking at father and daughter.
The guests around them chuckled hearing Eva while looking at the bride.
Ivan was stunned like every time. Arna’s hair was styled in a messy bun suiting the venue and being natural to the soft wind. Her makeup was subtle but the eye stood out in the smokey eye.
She was wearing a unique design gracing her curves. The sheerness of the cloth was reduced by the intricate, vertical, and delicate apply of small twinkling studs. The deep V neckline was layered with wings like structure subtly covering her neck and cleavage.
Her arms were covered till the wrist and the hem of the dress were shuffling down the stairs. The center slit of the dress was high till mid-thighs revealing her long slender legs on open toes high stilettos. She had skipped the fairytale veil to their reality.
One arm was hooked to her father’s and the other one held the white roses bridal bouquet.
Isaac felt a tug and heard Rooney mention, “Brother Ivan, Sister Snow will be here. Wait…” Then he realized he had taken two steps away. He saw Arna smile at him and breathed.
Bowing to his father-in-law, he received his bride-to-be’s hand and pulled her front. Both stared at each other and words had no place to speak their delight and adoration.
Naira and Jasmine stood behind the bride. Jasmine took the bouquet from Snow when the ceremony was going to start.
Finn started the wedding ceremony. “I am Finn Stanley…” He glanced at Arna, his darling Snow who was a bride. “The bride’s first love. She had promised to marry me and I am heartbroken to be an officiant in her wedding.”
His humor earned a heartful chuckle from everyone. He continued, “I now announce, the wedding ceremony begins.”
While another couple watched from upstairs, the rest were the witnesses of the wedding.
Finn asked the bride and groom who repeated, “I do.”
Naira held the rings away and demanded, “I want a flower girl for my wedding in the future.” Everyone laughed seeing Arna flushing while Ivan was momentarily speechless.
“Me too…” Jasmine peeked at them, imagining the little girls in beautiful dresses running around at her wedding.
Rooney and Finn: “…”
Both looked at each other and the younger one flashed an awkward smile. Finn would skin him alive at Jasmine’s speed.
Nonetheless, Rooney said in a low voice to reach the bridesmaid’s ears, “Sister Snow might have twins.”
Arna’s jaws dropped at the realization. She turned to her emotional mother who shrugged her shoulders, stating ‘Maybe or maybe not.’
Jasmine became excited, “Right, I want a boy and a girl.”
All burst into laughter when Ivan turned to Rooney and patted his shoulder, “Work hard, your girlfriend wants a boy and a girl.”
Jasmine and Rooney: “…”
Naira chuckled as she corrected, “We want a flower girl and a ring bearer.” She handed the rings.
Under the round of applause, they exchanged the rings and the groom kissed his bride confessing their love for each other.
“I promise to always make you laugh and to laugh together,” Arna vowed.
“I promise to never lose our spark and to always do the little things to make you happy,” Ivan promised and kissed his bride again.
