“Yes, that is correct! ording to what I’ve heard, they will meet the groom’s family and discuss the engagement. Sir, are you


    rted to him?”


    “No.” The man kept hisposure 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.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “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 inmon. 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 inws,” 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. | 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 nning? 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 dors.” 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 yournd. So, we’re wondering whether you may make it as your


    gift for the wedding.”


    Drake and his wife exchanged yet another nce. Ournd?! However, thisnd is valued at 50 million dors on the


    market. It wasn’t that the couple didn’t want to give thend 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 ofnd as a wedding gift?!


    “Mr. Drake, we’ll build a house on that piece ofnd. 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.
