Unbreakable Love His Passion for Her Transcends Death
Chapter 434

When Zoey had been younger, she had also had a crush on Xavier. She had kept up with his life and had initially wanted to marry him.

But now that he was blind, she had chosen Jeremiah, who was currently more accomplished than Xavier. She no longer cared about her past feelings. She said, "Xavier, Yvette, let's have a drink."

To make it easier for Xavier, she handed the glass to him. All he had to do was raise his hand to take it.

However, Xavier didn't take the glass; instead, he grabbed Yvette's hand. "My wife and I don't drink. Go toast with someone else," Xavier stated.

Zoey froze and looked at Jeremiah. Jeremiah picked up his glass and handed it to Zoey. "If Xav and Yvette won't drink, we will."

"Alright," Zoey agreed and drank it.

Initially, the couple had been supposed to toast only their closest family, but Jeremiah ended up toasting to everyone present. He drank all the wine Zoey couldn't handle.

By the end of the engagement party, Yvette finally saw Zachary.

The child's youthful face was flushed, clearly having been made up, and he wore an expensive little suit. Most notably, he was holding Michael's hand with his left and Archibald's with his right.

He nearly stole the spotlight from the engaged couple. Fortunately, he had arrived close to the end of the event. The guests were all notable figures. Clifford couldn't help his curiosity when he noticed Archibald holding a child's hand. "Who is this boy, Mr. Shaw Senior?" he inquired.

"This is Tris's child," Archibald replied proudly. "He's my great-grandson."

Clifford quickly asked for his reading glasses. After putting them on, he exclaimed, "This boy looks just like Xav and Jerry when they were young!"

Yvette's heart raced at his words.

Thankfully, Michael chimed in and joked, "Mr. Lane Senior, please don't try to claim my grandson. My daughter gave birth to him. She doesn't know Mr. Lane."

Clifford chuckled, realizing he must have mistaken the resemblance. "I just thought the boy was adorable, and I couldn't help but like him."

Archibald immediately protected Zachary. "Don't even think about stealing my great-grandson."

The three elderly men, whose combined age exceeded 200 years, acted like children.

Still just a kid, Zachary was quite bewildered by all the attention after going through a lot that day.

From a distance, Yvette breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing how much Michael and the others adored Zachary genuinely made her happy.

Shannon, on the other hand, had been keeping an eye on Zachary. She had investigated and knew Kiki had never given birth. There was no way Zachary could suddenly

become Tristan and Kiki's son. She couldn't accept it.

Later, Archibald and Michael publicly announced that they would host an engagement party for Tristan and Kiki after the New Year. The announcement was met with enthusiastic applause, while and Kiki both wore sour expressions.

The engagement party continued into the afternoon.

Jeremiah, having drunk too much, was visibly unwell. Jackie was worried as she stood nearby. "Mr. Jeremiah, you should drink less. With your condition, your body won't be able to handle it."

Jeremiah had always taken good care of his health, but since returning to Tirion, he had become increasingly careless. Jackie's heart ached watching him like this. "It's okay. It's just for today," Jeremiah reassured her gently.

Jackie nodded. She was about to say more when a hand reached out from behind and pulled her away.

"Jackie, go entertain the guests. I'll take Jerry to rest." Zoey, in high heels, supported the drunk Jeremiah as she instructed Jackie.

Since they were engaged, Zoey was Jeremiah's future wife. Jackie had to comply.

Zoey's heart raced the entire time as she called for the maids to help her support Jeremiah back to his room.
