It was early in the morning the next day.
The trees in the courtyard were enveloped by a thick fog so they seemed like they were floating in the air.
Avery opened the window and saw the white mist squeeze in as if it was filled with vitality.
She lifted her head and looked toward the sky. A faint golden ray was subtly visible.

The ceremony for the Marshall's Award was going to be held that day. Avery had a lot on her mind, so she woke up very early. She was afraid that Elliot would be woken up by her, so she waited until the sun cup before she got out of bed.
At the stime, at the Jennings', Angela sat in front of the mirror and was looking at her own reflection.
She would absolutely be the main character of the day. To her, this day would be the highlight of the past 16 years of her life.
She has not started putting on her makeup, but she felt her reflection in the mirror was already dazzling. She was exuding a faint layer of light all over.
Dean got out of bed with Angela.
After he got up and got fully dressed, he cto Angela and watched her put on her makeup.
"Angela, it's so tiring to do your own makeup! You should have gotten a makeup artist to do your makeup for you, then you don't have to be so tired," Dean said to Angela as he sat next to her and surveyed her.
"I only need to put on light makeup today, so there's no need for the makeup artist to cover." Angela was done putting on foundation and was looking for her setting powder on the table. "Dean, go have breakfast! You don't have to wait for me. It'll takequite a while before I'm done!" "Alright. I'll first go have breakfast then. Hurry up and cout. You're not getting married today, so you don't have to do it so intricately," Dean said to her after he got up from the chair.
"Hmm," Angela responded. After that, she watched Dean walk out of the room through the mirror.

The smile was free and easygoing. It was the smile of a person who had just been released.
She finished up her makeup quickly and then got up to get changed.
When Dean was having breakfast, he received a call from a friend.
His friend was congratulating him on the phone because Angela was going to be receiving an award soon.
"Dean, you're really amazing! You actually could marry such an outstanding woman. The Marshall's Award is only given out once every four years, and because there were no suitable candidates four year's ago, they did not hold the ceremony at all. That means that your new bride is the only genius discovered in the past eight years!" Dean laughed heartily. "I've long noticed that Angela had the potential. Otherwise, I wouldn't have invested in her. You don't know this, but she was the one who took the initiative to askto invest in her.
She also went to people other than me, but the others did not trust her that much. I was the only one with a keen eye. After I heard her proposal, I immediately decided to invest in her." "That's right! I heard it before. Dean, lyou've always had a keen eye for investments. You've really bet on the right horse this time. After your wife receives the award, do you guys plan on seeking investors for this technology of yours? I am very. interested in investing in you guys! No matter how much money you want, I'm willing to invest "Stanley, to be honest with you. I'm receiving a few dozen calls from investors every day now. I still haven't talked to Angela about this because we're going to be married soon. I was thinking of only discussing the following development issues with her after we get married and go for our honeymoon." Dean smiled and said, "But don't worry. If we need investments by then. I'll certainly consider you. We go way back, after all. I know you through and through. Also, I'm very clear about your abilities..." "That's what I wanted to hear. Your wedding is tomorrow and I'll prepare a big gift for both of you! Let's talk when we meet tomorrow." "Alright." After Dean hung up the phone, he put his phone on the table.
Angela walked over and said while smiling, "Who was that on the phone? You were laughing so loudly." mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1
