The news of Chuck's marriage was pretty much something that surprised entire UES. No one expected to hear about that, especially his father. He was in his office when he read the news of his son's wedding. He had no idea who his daughter in law was. Lilly came to his office to get him to have lunch with her. She had to go over some details for the wedding with him. She found him deep in his thoughts.

''Bart, what is it?''

''You spent almost a month getting Serena's wedding in order and I just learned that my son got married and I was not even invited…. Serena wants me to give her away and Charles gets married in secrecy…''

''Chuck is married?''

''Yes, Lilly… He got married few weeks ago…''

''Oh…Interesting…''

Lilly smiled… She had a feeling she knew who was he married to.

''And the girl? Who is she?''

''I have no idea. My detectives are working on it…''

''Burt, let him introduce her to you without any checkups and things.''

''He never dated anyone in years and now he is married…''

''Burt, let it be… You will meet his wife when the time comes.''

''How can you be so calm about this?''

''Because I thrust him… He is my son now too. And I think he picked well…''

''You know something?''

''No, I just have a feeling about someone…''

''Who?''

Lilly smiled at her husband…

''Patience, Bart… I will not say a word just so I don't jinx it.''

''You women are insane…''

''And you love us Bass…''

''I do. I most definitely do…''

They had lunch at the hotel so they could try the food that chef suggested for the reception. Serena came to eat with them and Nate was kept at work. He had so much to handle since they wanted to take long honeymoon.

''So, I heard Chuck is coming with a wife. He accepted to be Nate's best man.''

Bart kept eating and looking at his chicken.

''I heard that too. My son is coming back after ten years and I am very happy about it.''

''I wonder who is he married to? I never imagined him as someone who would get married.''

''Why?''

''He is too much of a ladies' man…''

''So was I and I married your mother…''

''Yes… That is correct to…''

''I'm just interested in new Mrs. Bass…''

''Aren't we all?''

Lilly kept quiet. She didn't want to share her opinion. She had to know what really happened before she made her mind about this madness. Blair is coming to Serena's wedding to her ex-husband Serena had an affair for years. This will not be good. After they finished lunch, Lilly and Serena went to get the dress and Bart went back to work. He was bothered by who Chuck married but he was to busy to think about it now.

Two days before the wedding Chuck and Blair were back in the states. They made sure no one knows they came back together and they managed not to be seen. Blair was in the house and Chuck was everywhere. She felt happy being at home. She was a bit jetlagged so it suited her to rest and relax. Her body didn't react well to the return home. She was always sick and felt weak at moments. Chuck got her to rest and took care of her. He was so different from Nate. She felt so loved and adored. The day before the wedding they had lunch in town and they were seen by some people. They behaved like friends having lunch and no one could ever say there was something more. Gossip Girl made her announcement that they were back and eating together, but it was all that could be said. After the lunch they had different destinations. Arthur took her to the appointment she had and Chuck went to see Nate, Serena and his father. They were all in the living room of the Bass suit. Bart was very nervous to see his son. Serena and Nate were excited to see the wife and Lilly was scared. What will happen when they all meet? They heard the elevator and Chuck came in alone. Lilly was relived, but not for long.

''Charles… It is nice to see you after all this time…''

''You too Lilly…''

He kissed her cheek and moved to his father.

''Charles…''

''Dad…''

''Where is your wife?''

''She will not be joining us today. She had something else for today and she sends her apologies.''

''Oh, I was very excited to meet her.''

''Don't worry Nathaniel… You will see my wife soon.''

Serena was curious.

''What is she like? What is her name? Tell us all.''

''I will not do such a thing. You will see her at the wedding and all the answers will be given to you by her. She is an amazing person I couldn't put in few words. You will see it all.''

''Fine… You are a party pooper.''

Few minutes after this conversation was over, Eleanor Waldorf came into the suit like furry.

''Where is she?''

Lilly got up from the sofa and greeted her.

''Who are you looking for Eleanor?''

''Blair… Is she here?''

Serena and Nate were confused…

''Why would she be here?''

''Because of Charles.''

''We had lunch together and she went somewhere. I was guessing she went to see you…''

''Where does she live now?''

''I can't tell you that. If she didn't tell, I can't ether.''

''Listen to me… I need to see my daughter…''

''I am here mother.''

Blair entered the room looking like million dollars. She had short red dress, white shoes and she looked so sexy, happy and relaxed.

''Blair, where were you all this time? I was worried…''

''Oh, I can only imagine mother…''

''Blair, what is with that tone?''

''Nothing mother… As you see I am safe and well…''

''I see.. But what are you doing here? It's Serena's and Nate's pre wedding lunch?''

She smiled at all of them…

''I'm here to see my husband…I came to tell him we will be parents… ''

They all turned to her… Her mother was in shock.

''What? But, you are divorced…And you said you didn't sleep with him..''

''No, we are not… We just got married…''

''What?''

She got to Chuck and he opened his arms for her.

''I married Blair.''
