The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress

At 1 pm sharp, a maid informed them that the long-awaited guests had arrived.

"Please take them upstairs," said Ren. He then turned to Fae, who was tidying her dress and preparing to welcome their lunch guests. He kissed her cheek and commented, "You look so beautiful."

"Ahahaha ... thank you." Fee smiled happily at the compliment.

She stood at the door in a slightly stiff manner, trying to appear calm as the maid knocked on the penthouse door and then opened it. When the door was opened, she could see a man and a woman standing in a relaxed manner.

They brought champagne and a bouquet of flowers for the hosts. Johann wore casual bright colored outfits. He looked to be in his 30s and had a sympathetic face. His girlfriend, Carla, was dressed very fashionable, and her face was all smiling. She was not really beautiful, but she looked attractive and elegant.

"Hey .. good afternoon. Welcome to Monaco, and congratulations on your wedding plans tomorrow," said Johann while handing a bottle of champagne to Ren and then hugged the man. He then took Fae's hand and kissed her hand respectfully. "Congratulations, Madam, for bagging my friend here."

Fae could only nod with a flushed face. She received a bouquet of flowers from Carla who then hugged her.

"Hello, Fae ... you really do look like a fairy. Renald is very lucky." Carla took turns kissing Fae's right and left cheeks.

"Ah ... hello, Carla. Ren and I have been waiting for you," Fae replied pleasantly in perfect French.

Carla was stunned for a moment then turned towards Ren with a big smile.

"Whoaa .. Renald, I really like her. This is the most attractive woman you have ever dated." She then winked at Fae. "It's a compliment if it comes from me."

Fae could only smile sheepishly. She could only wonder how many women Ren Hanenberg had dated before her and whether all of them had met Johann and Carla.

"Thank you ..." said Fae again in French. "I'm glad I can meet you in person."

"Wow ... I'm very impressed, your French is so good. Absolutely no accent," Carla said, praising Fae again. She was French and didn't expect a foreigner could speak her language so fluently like a native.

"Come on, let's go to the terrace. The view is prettier over there. We can also sunbathe and enjoy the sun," said Ren. He brought Johann's bottle of champagne to the terrace and swiftly opened it to pour into four glasses.

"Congratulations!" said Johann and Carla once again as they clinked their glasses.

"Thank you," Ren and Fae replied in unison.

"Look, Johann .. they were just dating recently, but Ren has immediately decided to marry Fae. We've been together for ten years. When are you going to propose to me?" Carla asked with a flirtatious laugh. She seemed to enjoy teasing her boyfriend so much. "Am I not good enough for you to propose?"

"If you want, we can also get married tomorrow," Johann said coolly. "After they get their marriage license, we can have our turn and they become our witnesses. Would you like that?"

Carla just burst into laughter and shook her head. "Ugh .. please, you know I'm just joking. I don't believe in marriage."

The girl finished the champagne in her glass and Ren swiftly poured it back for her.

"I thought so too," Johann replied casually. He then turned to Ren. "But .. you did surprise me with the sudden marriage plan. What's going on here? Are you both expecting a baby already?"

Fae, who was sipping her champagne, involuntarily spouted her drink in surprise. Ren hurriedly took out his handkerchief and rubbed the girl's lips and hands with a chuckle.

"Sshh .. my apologies for this guy, Fae. My friend here sometimes talks without thinking." Ren apologized to Fae. He then glanced at Johann and answered curtly. "Geez, Johann... you shocked my wife."

"Uhmm .. it's okay. Let me clean it myself. I was just surprised..." Fae hurriedly took Ren's handkerchief and cleaned her hands, which were wet with champagne. "It is my fault."

Johann and Carla just looked at each other when they witness the intimacy between the soon-to-be husband and wife. The two of them smiled meaningfully.

Ahhh .. they felt so happy for Ren. The man looked like he finally met the perfect woman for him. He cared so much about her and treated her so well, both Johann and Carla thought in unison.

"I'm sorry, I was just kidding," said Johann with a chuckle. "That means Fae isn't pregnant. Then why do you have to get married in such a hurry?"

"Because I'm a smart man, Johann," Ren replied after confirming Fae was fine. He took a new glass and poured more champagne for Fae and handed the glass to the girl.

"I know you're a genius. But what does intelligence have to do with getting married this fast?" asked Johann, not understanding.

"What I meant was.. only a dumb man will miss the opportunity to marry the most beautiful girl in the world who is not only beautiful but also smart and makes him happy. What more do I need in a woman?"

Johann only laughed at Ren's words. "You're right. You're a smart man. You'd be a fool to let go of a girl as perfect as Fae."

Fae blushed over the conversation between Ren and Johann. She was touched because it seemed that Ren took great pride in her in front of important people like Johann and Carla, eroding her insecurities as an uneducated village girl.

If Ren was not at all ashamed to be by her side, then Fae should also be more self-respecting and be proud of who she was.

Finally, the girl was determined to act calmer and more confident. She didn't want to be an inferior girl who would make Ren feel uncomfortable.

Lunch was then served after they were satisfied chatting on the terrace and drinking champagne. A world-class chef came along with a sous chef and two servers to prepare classy dishes for the two couples.

Ren and Fae and Johann and Carla continued chatting about the wedding plans tomorrow. They also talked about the beautiful places around Monaco that Ren and Fae could visit after the wedding ceremony as part of their short honeymoon getaway.

Ren and Fae had decided to go sailing for two days and visit several beautiful cliff-side villages located only a few kilometers away from Montecarlo.

"Johann ... I don't want us to get married, but I want to go on a honeymoon like them," said Carla, glancing at Johann. "You should give me a nice honeymoon."

"Aish .. we've been on vacation together a lot," commented Johann, laughing and wringing his girlfriend's hair. "We're not a new couple like them. We've been together for ten years. Too old for that sort of thing."

Carla pursed her lips but couldn't argue. Fae became uncomfortable seeing their interaction, but Ren hurriedly whispered affectionately in her ear.

"Don't mind them. That's just the way they talk. Johann and Carla love each other too much, and they like to annoy their loved one from time to time."

"Ohh .. is that so?" Fae could only nod and smile.

She realized that each couple had their own way of communicating.. It seemed that Johann and Carla enjoyed teasing and annoying each other, while she and Ren were more serious.
