“Yes, that is correct! According to what I’ve heard, they will meet the groom’s family and discuss the

engagement. Sir, are you related to him?”

“No.” The man kept his composure and gave a quick smile, but as soon as he walked away, his face

looked gloomy..

How could she not tell him she was going to get engaged?

Arthur pulled out his phone and called Sophia’s number right away.

Sophia was in the car that Christopher was driving. When she heard her phone rang, she pulled it out

and checked it. Once she saw who was calling, she immediately ended the call.

“Why didn’t you answer?” Christopher asked out of curiosity.

“It’s nothing important.”

At the hospital lobby, the man couldn’t believe that she had just hung up on him. When he thought

about that, he gripped the phone even tighter.

“Find out where Drake’s daughter’s. engagement is,” Arthur ordered his bodyguard behind him.

The bodyguard contacted the executive at Goodwin Corporation, who put him in touch with Drake’s

driver. The driver gave them the address and room number of the restaurant.

Arthur then entered the car and calmly said, “Drive to the restaurant.”

Christopher’s car slowly pulled into the restaurant’s parking lot during this time. When Sophia got out of

the vehicle, he suddenly hugged her. This startled Sophia, so she avoided and told him, “Don’t do this.

We do not want anyone to see us.”

“What’s the problem? After this meal, you will be my wife anyway.” He wanted to move in with Sophia

so badly right now.

Even though they were going to get married in future, she still resisted him deeply.

“Fine! At the very least, we should hold hands!” Christopher ignored her refusal and forced to take her

hand.

Sophia had no choice but to follow him inside the restaurant while holding her hand.

At the restaurant, Drake and his wife were chatting with the York couple. Since they were both

businessmen, this was something that they had in common. Their conversation led to the Goodwin

Corporation incident when a hostile acquisition left Drake with no one to turn to when it happened.

His business was thriving until there was an unexpected hostile acquisition, which resulted in him

owing a significant amount of money to the bank. All of this happened as a result of his daughter losing

the heirloom that belonged to a young man.

“Anyway, the past is the past. Please look out for us since we will soon be in-laws,” Drake added.

“Of course. After all, our son is totally crazy about Sophia.”.

Christopher walked in while holding Sophia’s hand as they were talking.

After taking their seats, the two families began ordering food. In the meantime, Emma was observing

her daughter seated next to a plump Christopher. She felt terrible for Sophia since she was unhappy

with this engagement.

“Sophia! I’ll take good care of you in the future. Once you’re married to Christopher, please hurry ahead

and bless our family with a grandchild. I definitely want to have a grandchild soon.” Margaret thought to

herself as she looked at Sophia’s lovely face. My future grandchildren’s genes will definitely be

amazing.

“Why don’t we skip the and get straight to the wedding planning? At this point, we are able to discuss

the dowry and what should be done with it. We are generous, we have decided to give two million

dollars.” Edmund York had already decided what he will do.

“We have no demands on the dowry. Everything is fine so long as Sophia is happy.” Drake nodded.

Edmund had an idea right away. “Oh! Drake, how about we help you pay off half of your debt to make

things easier and then figure out what to do about the rest?”

Drake and his wife looked at each other in silence. Because of how things were, they had no other

choice as they no longer had any pride left to ask for more.

“But we also hope you can give something as your part of the wedding gift,” Margaret said out of the

blue. When Emma heard this, she quickly added, “We’ll absolutely prepare our side of the wedding gift

too.”

“In that case, let’s just get right to it. Drake, we are interested in your land. So, we’re wondering

whether you may make it as your gift for the wedding.”

Drake and his wife exchanged yet another glance. Our land?! However, this land is valued at 50 million

dollars on the

market. It wasn’t that the couple didn’t want to give the land as a wedding gift; instead, it was their only

remaining possession.

Sophia was shocked to hear this and she looked at the York Family. They want a piece of land as a

wedding gift?!

“Mr. Drake, we’ll build a house on that piece of land. We’ll bring you two over to stay with us by then.”

Christopher said. He thought that his family deserved to benefit financially from this marriage.
