Not keep a single penny?! Emilia stood up in great shock and anger. That was a mountain of wealth; the cash alone amounted to millions, not to mention the several residential properties. She believed giving a in-law was out of his mind not to want anything.

Quincy's expression turned cold, and he reached out to restrain his grandmother's arm, his voice tinged with frost. "Grandma, if you keep talking like this, they will think we're greedy and money- minded. Imagine if they reconsider Angela and choose someone else instead. We'd end up with nothing."

Her grandmother was, to put it bluntly, money-

hungry. Letting go of the money that was already within her grasp was like a knife to the heart, and her outburst made both families. uncomfortable.

For someone always shrewd about anything relating to money, Emilia shut up within seconds and sat back down obediently.

Donald was Angela's paternal uncle, and given how close they were, especially when Angela invited him and not her father to represent her family on her engagement, it proved that Donald meant a lot more to

in Angela's hands now, she certainly would help her uncle out if he encountered any difficulties, wouldn't she? On the other hand, if they scared off their prospective son-in- law, they would end up with nothing. No, she couldn't possibly let other girls benefit from this!

Emilia's eyes darted around as she thought quickly before eventually whispering, "Alright, I'll listen to you. Education does make a difference. Your mind works fast, Quincy" Quincy tugged at his lips, snorted, and fell silent.

All the shrewdness in this room belonged to the Sanderses and Lawsons. His parents. wouldn't have the slightest clue even if they were being discussed for money! As for his grandmother's scheming, Bruce a He took a quick survey and found that the two elders were wholly unfazed, not even a flicker in their gazes.

Following his words of conviction, Donald handed the gift lists to Angela, speaking gently, "Here, Angela, hold on to them. They're all yours. With these things, you'll have a foundation. After you're married, settl most of it.

Hecate, too, held Angela's hand with red-rimmed eyes as she pressed the gift list into it. "If Jonathan mistreats you, you can divorce him with this money. With money, you can still live a good life.", Jonathan was stupefied. He couldn't believe they were already discussing divorce right before his eyes.

Quincy, who had been tense all along, couldn't help chuckling when he saw the stupefaction that flashed across Jonathan, and he chirped, "Mom's right. If Mr. Lawson treats you poorly. take the money and leave. At that point, you'll become a rich woman worth billions.

Seeing that his son's words were becoming out of line, Donald shot him a stern glance, admonishing. "Excuse you! Is this how you should speak as Angela's cousin?"

Quincy shrugged in response, playing dumb as he buried his head in the food. Meals at the Laurel Hotel were rare occasions. He knew he should eat while he had the chance.

Meanwhile, Donald pulled out a small box from his pocket. "We originally planned to celebrate your birthday today, especially since you're turning twenty this year. But it's also good that we're celebrating your e "Time flies. You're twenty and grown up now...

It seemed like it was just yesterday when they brought this scrawny little girl back. Now, she had grown into a fine young lady and was about to be married.

Tears began welling up in Donald's eyes, and for once, the usually dignifying and steady man shed a tear.

Angela held two pieces of gilt paper in one hand and a small red velvet box containing a pair. of dainty gold flower earrings in the other.

Uncle Donald still remembers my birthday.

Tears, too, welled up in Angela's eyes as she threw herself into Donald's embrace. "Thank you, Uncle Donald. From now on, you're my father, just like Queenie and Quincy are to you! I will care for you just like Donald smiled comfortingly and patted her head.

"A man of character, you are, Donald. I like it! You and your wife can entrust Angela to Jon; rest assured. If Jon ever mistreats Angela, I'll be the first to give him a piece of my mind!" Bruce, with a thunderous v Bruce's face was flushed as he stood up, hooking his arm around Donald's shoulder, and went

sit down on his side, engaged in enthusiastic conversation with each other in just a few words.

In no time, the servers brought the liquor over, and Bruce began pouring the drinks one after another. "Cheers to the young couple! Here's to a long and happy life!"

Donald's tolerance for alcohol was average, but he had to drink for Angela's sake. So, he gritted his teeth and took a sip.

Quincy narrowed his eyes. He knew his father couldn't possibly outdrink Bruce, so after just a second of contemplation, he grabbed a bottle and a glass and joined the fray.

Kevin glanced over and sneered. He's done at least one good thing.

A moment later, Kevin turned to Hecate with a smile. "Mrs. Kins, the marriage is set in stone then. Jon isn't getting any younger, so we have them sign the marriage certificate first. We'll skip the engagement pa Kevin's series of questions left Hecate bewildered, unable to keep up. In the end, all she could manage was that she would go along with their plans and follow Angela's preferences.

She worried she'd embarrass Angela by saying something she shouldn't have. After all, families like the Lawsons certainly didn't hold weddings like common folks would.

That said, she was able to give Kevin one straight answer. "We're a small family, so we won't take up many tables. What about you guys? How many tables will your side take up?"

Her question stumped Kevin, and he seriously contemplated. "A little over a hundred tables...

I think.

Come again?! Hecate was gobsmacked.
