Nothing but a Lump of Fat
Medical Center.
Late at night.
The proposal ceremony ended in an odd atmosphere.
Everyone dispersed.
Ross was driven away by Adam.
Compared to the melancholy of others, he, who was either at school, in a museum, or in the ivory tower of university, quickly adjusted himself with a simple psychological suggestion.
Fake!
Fake!
It's all fake!
After adjusting, Ross, the groom-to-be, naturally had some bold ideas.
The night of their engagement.
Singles' night.
It would be unreasonable not to have some activities.
Neither he nor Rachel cared whether Emma was an illegitimate child.
They didn't care about what their elders thought.
Seeing the bride and groom holding hands and gazing at each other with tearful eyes, Adam broke Yuanyang up and kicked Ross out.
"Stop lip-syncing, I'll have someone watching you tonight."
Adam interrupted their reverie.
Damn it!
Ross and Rachel cursed in unison.
"You all need to get some rest. The wedding is tomorrow morning. Do you want to be in the best possible condition for this moment?"
Adam cautioned, "Ross is the ugliest groom, fine, but Rachel, do you want to compete for the title of ugliest bride?"
"No!"
Rachel immediately abandoned her bold idea.
How can fleeting desires compare to eternal beauty?
Tomorrow is such an important moment, we should take photos and even videos to commemorate it.
"Adam, but I haven't prepared anything?"
Rachel reached up and touched herself from head to toe, worriedly asking, "You're going to get married wearing this?"
"These are all minor matters."
Adam waved his hand and said, "What you need to do is rest well and recharge your energy. I'll take care of the rest."
Everyone has their own internal calculations.
For most people, owing favors is a burden.
Um.
Leonard can repay some of the favors he owes.
Adam mentally made a "yes" gesture.
"Thanks."
Rachel thanked her, her face showing anticipation.
After getting rid of Ross, Adam called his assistant Ada, told her his requirements, and asked her to get things moving overnight.
"You should have the photos. We all took photos together at Chandler and Monica's wedding. Just take her photos and go choose a wedding dress overnight. Make sure it's high-end."
"A groom? He doesn't need one! He's been married several times; he has plenty of suits!"
"You need to help the bride; she's pregnant and her measurements are..."
"What are you thinking! The child isn't mine!"
"Why is it so precise? Is this your first day working with me? Do I have to be so close to determine your exact measurements? Your measurements are..."
"No? Then you're the one who's wrong. When you go to choose your wedding dress later, have them take your measurements and see if you're right or I'm wrong. If you're wrong, I'll give you an extra month's bonus."
"I'm doomed? What I saw was all an illusion? You used a gathering artifact? Heh, wanna bet? I'll bet three months' salary on you?"
"You've already gambled, haven't you? Want to raise the stakes? No way!"
"It's not that I'm afraid of losing, but that I'm afraid you'll lose too much and lose your motivation to work."
"Why are you so sure? Haven't you noticed you've gained weight?"
Dudu.
Dudu.
On the other end of the phone, assistant Ada said she understood and had to go get busy, then hung up immediately.
Obviously.
This is yet another woman like Penny.
Their weight is closely related to their self-worth.
Adam told her she had gained weight, and she naturally felt offended.
The next day.
Early in the morning.
When Adam arrived at the VIP delivery room.
Assistant Ada had already arrived and directed people to help Rachel change into a maternity-specific wedding dress.
You get what you pay for.
"Wow!"
"So beautiful!"
Monica and the others arrived as well. After Rachel changed, they skillfully uttered the sounds Rachel most wanted to hear.
"Thank you, Adam."
Rachel looked at herself in the full-length mirror, her eyes filled with joy.
She's truly satisfied that a pregnant woman can achieve this effect by wearing a wedding dress.
"You're welcome."
Adam smiled and asked, "Ada, is the wedding venue all set up?"
"Um."
Ada replied with a dark face, "It's in a hotel next to the hospital. Everything has been arranged urgently."
"What about the groom?"
Adam then looked at Monica.
"Chandler and Joey are helping him prepare, they should be done by now."
Monica said.
"Adam, where are our bridesmaid dresses?"
Phoebe complained.
"No bridesmaids needed."
Adam laughed and said, "The focus today is on the bride, Rachel. You can all wear your everyday clothes."
Monica knowingly pulled Rachel's Phoebe, her gaze sweeping over Rachel's protruding belly.
There is only one protagonist in a wedding, and that is the bride.
Even the groom is a supporting character.
The other bridesmaids are dressed prettier than the bride. What are they trying to do?
Are you trying to cause trouble?
When female celebrities get married, they often have a whole host of female celebrities as bridesmaids. In many cases, people only pay attention to the bridesmaids and can't remember who the bride is at all.
Nothing more.
The bridesmaids' looks completely outshone the bride's.
More importantly, a dozen or so people stood in a row and ganged up on the bride.
It's hard to know what the bride was thinking at that moment...
If it weren't for the need for pomp and circumstance, the bride would probably have transformed into Gatling Bodhisattva and sent all her bridesmaids and best friends to their final resting place.
Um.
The groom is usually included as well.
Don't think she didn't see the groom's gaze constantly drifting towards the bridesmaids behind her.
Rachel was about to speak.
But after Adam's reminder, and looking at her belly and the beautiful wedding dress, she swallowed the words she was about to say.
The incident happened suddenly.
Keep everything simple.
Whether or not someone is a bridesmaid doesn't really matter.
"Monica, Phoebe, please look after Rachel."
Adam gave the instructions and then left.
Assistant Ada followed them out.
"Today is a wedding, after all. Don't be upset. It's just three months' salary."
Adam laughed.
How did you know?
Assistant Ada was completely baffled.
Her relationship with Adam was purely professional.
"I have good eyesight and I'm also good at math."
Adam smiled modestly and said, "Well, my experience is alright."
That's it?
Ada remains incredible.
"Isn't that enough?"
Adam hesitated and asked, "Have you forgotten where we are?"
"The hospital."
Ada was confused.
"Then who am I?"
Adam reminded him, "I'm a doctor, a surgeon. We've seen all kinds of human adipose tissue. Many people, like you, have come here wearing those 'gathering devices'."
But before undergoing surgery, one must give up the "miracle device" and reveal their true self.
Over time.
She has some talent.
See through the phenomena to the essence.
Isn't that normal?
"..."
Ada's face darkened further.
This offended her even more than being told she was fat.
"Adam".
Over there, Leonard was waving to Adam.
Adam could only pause his explanation, smile at Ada, and walk over.
"I have already asked the director for leave for us."
Leonard asked with concern, "How's the registration at the city hall going?"
"No problem."
Adam laughed and said, "We've already obtained the judge's approval, and the city hall staff are already waiting on site. They'll register them as soon as they start work. Congratulations, your first granddaughter is a legitimate child."
"Very good."
Leonard was overjoyed. "Adam, it's all thanks to you, thank you so much!"
"You're welcome."
Adam smiled and said, "We should head over there too."
"Good."
Leonard nodded.
The two walked side by side toward the wedding venue outside the hospital.
Today's wedding was so sudden.
Keep everything simple.
Only a few close friends and family members were invited.
Fortunately, both the Geller Family and Green Family live in New York and arrived in time.
With Money Power, the wedding setup, flowers, band, and everything else were all in place within just a few hours.
