Chapter 483
"The people here today are my family, the people I love the most, so I feel compelled to announce my decision to you. Yes..." Lamar paused, a happy smile on his face, and then announced, "Vanessa and I have decided to have a wedding after the season, and the venue will be Christmas Island in the Caribbean, and I have already agreed to rent the island on the wedding days. β
"Congratulations!" Jonathan was the first to shout, and the others were petrified.
"What!?Lamar! What do you say?" Vanessa looked at Lamar, as if incredulous at his decision. Although she accepted Lamar's marriage proposal in the hospital and discussed with Lamar the approximate time of marriage in the offseason, this was only a general idea, and the specific plan was not discussed.
However, when he thought of Lamar accompanying him, the teacher cared about what he liked, and often did some mysterious things behind his back, and the clever Vanessa seemed to have something in mind. Suddenly, a feeling of happiness spread across Vanessa's face: "Lamar, is this what you mysteriously did some time ago?"
"Yes, dear! Forgive me for hiding it from you, but I wanted to surprise you. I think it's the right time and I hope my family can share this wonderful moment with us. Lamar hugged Vanessa and looked at her sincerely.
"Married?!Lamar, you've finally done the right thing. I don't think Vanessa cares about what you're hiding from her, we've been waiting for this day for a long time. Maggie also stood up, and said a rare good thing for Lamar, knowing that since Vanessa and Lamar got together, her aunt had always stood beside Vanessa and waved her flag.
"Is it a long time?" Lamar said with some puzzlement, "Didn't you roughly decide the date of marriage when I was in the hospital?" I still think the preparation time is a bit short, you must know that marriage is a big event, but I am preparing a grand wedding ceremony for myself and Vanessa. β
"Is there a specific date set, is there anything else that needs to be prepared or that we need our help?" the aunt apparently agreed with Lamar's statement and began to want to get involved.
"Mom!" Sally looked at her mother, who was a little concerned, with a little amusement: "You don't need to worry about this at all, I think Lamar must have everything ready to say it at this time, and we can just go to their wedding when the time comes."
Jonathan also hurriedly said: "Baby, Sally is right! I'm sure Lamar and Vanessa can handle it, and now the most important thing we need to do is to bless Lamar and Vanessa." β
"Shut up Jonathan, you know what? Lamar didn't have a mother since he was a child, I was his mother, and I was fulfilling the responsibilities of a mother. After the aunt scolded Jonathan, she also realized that she seemed to be a little out of shape. My aunt didn't want the original harmonious and warm atmosphere to be ruined by herself, and when she turned around, she saw Vanessa's eyes full of expectation and happiness when she looked at Lamar, and hugged Vanessa in her arms: "Baby, I wish you happiness! In the future, Lamar will be handed over to you, this guy has not learned well since he was a child, fights and brawls are common, and now he has been messing with flowers and grass, you must take care of him!"
"Auntie!" Lamar quit, he didn't expect that he would be so unbearable in the eyes of his aunt, he is also famous now, the standard rich and ugly family, has he slandered himself so much in front of his daughter-in-law?
Then the little ghost Krees also came over, shook Vanessa's hand, and then rushed into Lamar's arms: "Bless you, big guy, but can I still live here when you are married?"
"Haha, of course!"
"Datinis, aren't you going to give your dad a blessing?" Jonathan looked down at Datinis, who was a little confused, and then crouched down and said in Dartinis's ear, "Nini, go kiss your father, and your Aunt Vanessa." Your dad and Vanessa are getting married!"
"Married?" Apparently not yet four years old, Datinis didn't quite understand the meaning of the word, but kissing his father could still do it.
"Ahh
Lamar hugged the smiling Datinis, and then hugged Vanessa beside him: "Honey, although I can't give you a complete love, but I will spend the rest of my life with you, I love you, Vanessa!" Lamar also knew that his marriage with Vanessa was a bit unfair, and he already had a child.
Hearing Lamar's emotional promise, Vanessa's eyes turned a little red, which should be tears of happiness after receiving the blessing of her family.
Lamar gently kissed away the tears on Vanessa's face: "Honey, now should be the time to be happy, don't cry!
Vanessa was also a little embarrassed when she saw the little guy in Lamar's arms, and said with a smile: "Nini, Auntie is very happy!"
Nini smiled when she saw the aunt who loved her the most, and her little face smiled happily, and her little hand took out the gummies in her pocket: "Auntie, eat!"
"Lamar, if only Nini had stayed at home. With this little guy with him, the family is also a lot lively. Vanessa obviously also wants to have a sweet little padded jacket at home.
"Oh, I want to, too, but I'll have to ask Lisa's opinion. But the little one is also old enough to go to school, and it's better to stay in New York than to run around with Lisa. I think Lisa would agree. Lamar agrees with Vanessa's opinion, but this matter is not up to her, and she has to ask Nini's mother for her opinion.
Warm time is always short-lived, but luckily Boston isn't far from New York, and Lamar and his Knicks can travel to Boston on game day. With only one day off to spare, Van Gundy was kind enough to just announce a simple recovery workout. Lamar had just returned home from his last strength training and was about to find something to treat his stomach when the phone bombardment arrived.
"Hey, I'm Lamar. β
"Hey, Lamar! You damn thingγγγγγγ β
"Big guy, what's going on?"
"Why didn't you notify me about your marriage? You wouldn't have left the Lakers and wouldn't recognize me as a brother, would you?"
Lamar was stunned for a moment, and asked a little curiously, "Shaq, how did you know about this, I haven't notified me except my family and teammates." β
"Are there any people in the whole of America who don't know about this?" asked Shaq rhetorically.
"What the hell is going on?" Lamar sensed that things didn't seem to be going well, "Why would everyone in the whole of America know?"
"I don't know exactly why, I just watched the news and found out about it. Is this true? Haven't you been talking to her for a long time, half a year?"
"It's been almost half a year. β
"Lamar, you don't know, that guy on our team is cold like an ice cellar when he sees the news. Shaq obviously gloated when he said this: "Don't forget to send an invitation when the time comes, and then we old brothers will be able to get together properly." β
Lamar sighed and said, "I won't forget you!"
"Damn, don't you think it's a little late to say that?" Shaq sounded a little angry.
As soon as I hung up Shaq's phone, the AI call came again, followed by Kevin's, Vince Carter's, and even Tim Duncan called to inquire about it. Lamar had to repeat it over and over again, apologize over and over again.
"What's wrong with you, honey?" Vanessa walked over to see Lamar lying on the couch exhausted, and if it weren't for his eyes still open, he wouldn't even feel angry.
"Nothing!" said Lamar as he sat up, took Vanessa's hand and took her into his arms, "Vanessa, why do you say that getting married is so troublesome?"
Hearing about their wedding from Lamar's mouth, Vanessa felt very sweet, she was so easily satisfied: "I still want to announce the news of our marriage to the whole world? It seems that there is no need now, someone has already done it for us! Do you say that your fans are wishing us well?" Vanessa had a happy smile on her face, looking forward to their future.
"Mostly! I think some people still don't want us to get married so early, because I'm their prince!" Lamar sighed, and then collapsed on the couch again, "If possible, I wish we had just me and you in our wedding." β
"Why?"
"I've always felt that marriage is our private affair, and it has nothing to do with other people, and the wedding scene is too grand I feel that the protagonist is not us! In fact, I really want to get married with the two of you, just the two of us, go to a place, hold a simple wedding according to the customs of that place, and then take wedding photos with very regional characteristics. Isn't that romantic, you say?"
Vanessa lay down in Lamar's arms and said with a smile, "I remember you didn't say that yesterday!"
"So I regret it now, and I let what I had hoped for be a big party. β
"No!" Vanessa whispered while holding Lamar's face, "You shouldn't regret it, and I'm glad you did so much without me." You know what? You've always been my pride! I love the surprise you've given me, but now that I've heard your expectations, I'm feeling good. Why don't you take a trip around the world after our wedding party as you wish?"
