Chapter 6: Is It His Manic-Depressive Period?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“He’s my husband now.” Valerie cheerfully gave her mother a brief introduction, then said with a smile, “The rest will be discussed later. Let’s go, the people outside are still waiting for us. Let’s get the ceremony over with first.”

Ruth had a suspicious look on her face, but her daughter did not want to talk about it now.

In addition, the guests in the banquet hall could not be ignored.

Valerie held Jonny’s hand and walked to the banquet hall when she suddenly noticed that his palm was very hot.

She turned her head and asked, “What’s wrong, Jonny?”

“It’s too hot, I want to show my tail…” Jonny sounded a little aggrieved. He reached out and tugged at his collar in discomfort.

Isaac was not a werebeast, so his suits were not specially designed for werebeasts.

That was why Valerie asked Jonny to put away his tail, otherwise, he would not be able to fit.

She patiently said to Jonny, “Just hold on a little longer. The ceremony will be quick. After it’s over, I’ll send you back to rest.”

Ruth was curious about this son-in-law who had suddenly appeared!

She looked at Jonny’s appearance and suddenly frowned. “Val, is he in his manic-depressive period?”

“Manic-depressive period?”

Manic-depressive periods were only experienced by werebeasts. Werebeasts were an atavistic phenomenon, which was very rare. Among the Sullivans, only Valerie’s eldest brother, Ian, was a werebeast. He was currently a third-year student at the Imperial Military Academy.

When a werebeast became an adult, they would experience a manic-depressive period every year, and the duration of this period was variable.

During each manic-depressive period, the werebeast would be emotionally unstable, plagued by insecurity, and might turn into a little crybaby. After the period ended, their memories of this period would become fuzzy.

Werebeasts with partners could ask their partners to help relieve the manic-depressive period.

Werebeasts without partners usually used exclusive medicine or resisted through sheer will, which would damage their mental strength and physical health.

Ruth said affirmatively, “When your elder brother was in his manic-depressive period, it was very similar to this. Doesn’t this guy have any exclusive meds?”

Valerie turned her head to look at Jonny. The corners of his eyes were red, and he was holding her hand tightly.

He could not even remember his address, let alone whether he brought his medicine.

Valerie immediately said, “Mom, help me get a vial of exclusive meds from Ian. I’ll complete the ceremony first. When the wedding is over, I’ll give him the meds immediately.”

“That’s our only option.” Ruth sighed. What was going on today?

As Valerie was walking toward the banquet hall with Jonny, Zachary was being invited to the stage. He looked ashamed.

At this point, Isaac still had not hurried back. This wedding ceremony was going down the drain.

Zachary felt that his daughter had embarrassed him thoroughly!

His eldest son, Ian, said softly, “Dad, there are people here from the First District. You can’t get angry. Grandpa is still watching from the audience!”

The grandfathers of the Sullivans and the Holts, along with the bigshots from the First District, sat at the front.

All of them were powerful and influential. Currently, they still appeared unperturbed as they talked softly among themselves.

Still, there were too many guests today.

After waiting for so long, the wedding had not started. People were already starting to whisper and gossip.

“I heard that Isaac is still in the Seventh District.”

“What a disgrace for the Sullivans! After all, there are even guests from the First District.”

“I heard that in about an hour, the daughter of the Sullivans will be twenty years old. If she doesn’t get married, she’ll be randomly assigned a man!”

“Who knows, she might be assigned to me, hahaha.”

“You’d want that? She’s an invalid. Wasn’t she in a cryo-chamber for some years? I wonder whether she can even have children anymore…”

They were saying all sorts of things.

The Holts were also in various states of distress. Mrs. Holt could not sit still.

What if the Sullivans became enemies with them because of this?

However, Jenny said serenely, “Rest assured, Valerie’s madly in love with my brother. Even if she’s married to some other guy, she’d try her best to get a divorce and continue pestering Isaac!”

Mrs. Holt frowned. “Divorce isn’t that easy. What if she can’t get one?”

Jenny grinned maliciously. “Blame it on her rotten luck then.”

When Zachary heard this, his face darkened.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the rage in his heart, and forced a smile. Just as he was about to open his mouth to end this farce, he saw the doors being opened..
