A small wedding ceremony taken place in Hyde Park in early morning a week later.
Mike, Kate and three of Nina's friends in England are the only guests here. Jack was invited but he has left the country for a mission.
Nina looks beautiful today. A dazzling bride.
Mike teases, "No wonder you insisted going to England, Gerry. You're searching for a wife."
Gerard only smiles happily. It's strange how he felt deep connection with her since the day they met.
Nina is chatting with Kate and other friends right now.
Mike asks, "What's your plan after this?"
"Going back home. To US. The president offered free scholarship for her. For saving his favorite grandson. I also got a home so no need to rent one."
Mike smiles even wider.
He says, "We missed you, Gerry. Any chance to come back to us?"
"I'm not going back, Mike. Beside Queen would..."
"She would listen to me. Forgot to mention it. I got it, Gerry! I'm her boss now. She got demoted for her past behaviors to Chrissy and others."
That's a whole level of promotion. Mike is Helena's boss now. In charge of whole field operations.
"Congrats! But I don't think Nina would be happy if I..."
"You don't have to go back to the field. You could train new agents. Preparing the rookies before they got out to the field."
One thing about Mike. He is a good negotiator. He could talk you into signing anything to his favor.
Finally Gerard sighs.
It's true. He missed his old job back. He couldn't find any job worthy since he quitted the agency.
"I'll think about it. If Nina said yes, I would..."
"Just leave her to me. Go and enjoy your honeymoon, Pal. Your job would still be waiting for your return."

"Hello, pretty woman. Are you free tonight?" asks him while offering her a single rose.
Nina stares to the White Rose bush behind him. And she rolls her eyes. Gerard often acts based on impulses. Cutting off the rose seems to be one of them.
She accepts the rose with a smile on her face.
"Thanks."
"Not too happy, aren't you?" asks her husband.
"I will miss this old country. And Kate."
Gerard says, "If you wanna stay here..."
"No. My home is with you. In America. We got home over there. And..."
