Chapter 1537: We Must Toast Together

“The dishes are all served, please enjoy your meal." The waitressrespectfully bowed and left, considerately closing the door behind her.With the table full of hot dishes, the meal was quite lavish. It was filledwith countryside dishes that were rarely seen in the city, making themall the more appetizing.

Everyone understood Tristan's intentions by now. Belinda and AlgeroneSwain's feelings had shifted from shock to being touched.

Monica, who longed for her parents to reunite, gathered her thoughts,gave a light cough, and said after seeing Tristan hand her father a cupof buckwheat tea, "Come on, let's toast! It's a rare gathering, and thistea is indeed fragrant!"

With her chattering and causing a ruckus, the awkwardness floating inthe air dispersed a little.

Seeing her break the silence, Tristan quickly raised his cup and said,"Yes, yes, we must toast first. Here's to our elders."

As Algerone Swain raised his cup, his gaze fell on the middle-agedwoman sitting across from him.

Although Belinda was still a bit out of sorts and felt a little awkward, shehad no choice but to raise her cup.

The family of four stood up to toast, and Monica, acting as the perfectmediator, eased the restaurant's atmosphere quite a bit.

“It's great that the three of you are cooperating. You all know each otherso well! The trust is off the charts." Monica's smile was radiant, "Sinceboth mom and dad are here, I also have some good news to announcetoday!"

All eyes fell on her, looking at her with great respect.

Tristan jokingly asked, "What good news? Are you in love?"

“Isn't that already known?" Monica glanced at him and teased, "I guessthe whole world knows by now?"

She stood up again, proudly patted her chest, “I, Monica, am going toreplace a job in Arkpool City! I'll be a piano teacher in a training institution!""A teacher?"

"Teaching piano?"

Upon hearing this, both Algerone Swain and Tristan could not help butfeel disappointed. They both hoped that she would seek a position intheir respective companies!

"Yes, a teacher. What's the matter? Why do you both look like you'vebeen hit? Aren't you happy?"

It seemed they were a step too late, but as men who loved her, theycould only agree and support her decision. Smiles returned toeveryone's faces.

"Of course we're happy, full support!"

“Thank you! Thank you all! Come on, let's toast again!" Monica's smilewas brilliant, maximizing her role as a mediator.

For this matter, everyone toasted again with tea in lieu of wine.

The awkward atmosphere was gradually easing, and Belinda finallystopped feeling uneasy, becoming much more relaxed.

“Let's eat first, the dishes won't taste as good when they cool.” Tristansaid, prompting everyone to pick up their forks, “Let's chat while weeat.”

At this point, Monica added, "Since we're all family, let's not be polite.Eating and chatting is nice, much better than formally sitting in the livingroom discussing work."

Tristan smiled, thinking to himself that Monica really did come at theright time tonight.

As they ate, Algerone Swain asked a question, and Tristan began toexplain the difference between the new real estate project to bedeveloped next year and the one developed by Clarke Corp this year,as well as its biggest advantages.

He was concise and to the point, not wasting words. In fact, ClarkeCorp was exceptionally good at real estate development, standing atthe top in Arkpool City.

As the meal was nearing its end, the business discussions werereaching their climax.

Three copies of the partnership plan were distributed to each of them,including Monica. Everyone was eating and chatting... everyone had asay.
