Chapter 3003: Chapter 193: Benjamin Lucas IX Is Back

"Mother, Debby and I have already completed the marriage procedures." Ben Lucas hugged the young man in his arms tightly, saying to Lily who was sitting across from them.

Lily’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, and it took her a few seconds to find her voice: "You two... when you went abroad, you had already registered?"

She thought her son had taken Debby abroad for a vacation, but didn’t expect her son’s actions to be so swift, actually turning Debby into her real daughter-in-law in just one trip.

This speed really... isn’t that much different from when she and Aidan Lucas got married back then.

Lily secretly blamed Aidan Lucas, thinking that of all the things for her eldest son to inherit, it had to be this, leaving her unable to attend her son’s wedding.

But on second thought, she felt relieved: "That’s right, after all, you are a Major General; such matters are not suitable for making a big fuss. Handling the marriage quietly abroad is indeed more appropriate. It’s just that it has wronged Debby."

Harrison Lucas quickly said, "It’s okay, I don’t feel wronged at all. Our wedding was wonderful; everything Jordan prepared made it unforgettable for a lifetime."

Such a perfect wedding, although it wasn’t publicly announced with fanfare, was eternal happiness for Harrison.

Especially since she also quite agreed with her mother-in-law’s words. No matter what, Ben Lucas needs to hold a position in the military, and his future is limitless.

Although others in the military might not say much for the sake of Larry Scott and the Lucas family’s reputation, it’s better to keep a low profile on such matters.

"Since that’s the case, you two should stay at home and take a rest for a while. Your daddy and I will be visiting your uncle’s family in S Country, for a little break. The affairs at Royal Palace will be managed by Ben Lucas for now. When Benjamin Lucas IX returns in a few days, you should have a good talk with him."

Since her son and Harrison have completed the marriage registration abroad, Benjamin Lucas IX probably won’t oppose anything.

Lily recently felt quite tired, with both of her sons encountering issues in succession—the elder son being relatively better, but the younger son still quarreling with Molly Lewis.

Thinking of Molly, who went to study alone in H City, Lily felt a tug at her heart.

...

A week later, after Aidan Lucas left with Lily for a few days, Benjamin Lucas IX finally rushed back from abroad.

Over the years, Benjamin Lucas IX had matured a lot, and he was entrusted with significant duties, managing the Royal Palace Group’s overseas business in M Country and S Country, which kept him extremely busy.

Upon receiving the news, he hurried back. When Benjamin Lucas IX arrived at the Lucas family’s old manor, Ben Lucas had just taken Yana to the office, and Harrison was home alone.

"Debby!" Seeing his ’little brother’, the usually tall and stern Benjamin Lucas IX showed an excitement that was completely out of step with his status.

"Debby, come here quickly and let your big brother give you a hug!"

The man gave a bear hug, enveloping the petite ’youth’, whom he towered over, tightly in his strong arms.

Benjamin Lucas IX hugged Harrison tightly, still feeling insatiable, and rubbed Harrison’s head again and again, messing up her fine black hair into a tangled mess.

Harrison felt a bit helpless, but had long grown accustomed to Benjamin Lucas IX’s behavior. After her big brother had enough hugging and rubbing, she said mildly, "Big brother, have you hugged enough? Can you let go now?"

"..." Benjamin Lucas IX’s handsome face fell: "Debby, you seem to dislike me, you don’t like me anymore, you won’t even let your big brother hug you. You weren’t like this when you were little, you always asked to be hugged and lifted high..."

"Not dislike, nor do I not like you, but now I’m grown up." Harrison really wanted to roll her eyes but held back and corrected him: "Besides, it wasn’t me who liked being hugged and lifted when I was little; it was you, big brother. You can’t keep attributing such childish behaviors to me."

Her big brother, causing her constant distress; no matter how he presented himself to others, behind closed doors, he was always carefreely like this.

But, this is her big brother, who has cared for her for more than twenty years—a big brother for a lifetime.
