Chapter 882


    Howard had been waiting for this moment for a long time.


    From now on, no one would dare to question whether he and Phoebe were a suitable match. They


    would get married, have children, and live happily ever after, blessed by everyone’s well wishes.


    The thought made Howard’s heart leap with joy.


    Soon, they arrived at the Nicholls residence.


    The evening sky was tinged with hues of red, creating a breathtaking view.


    Only a few guests were at the Nicholls residence, and Sheena and the others were among the early


    arrivals.


    Gabrielle was busy weing guests.


    When she saw Sheena, she eagerly approached and sped her hand.


    “I couldn’t make it to your baby showerst time! What a shame! Luckily, you’re here today. It’s been so


    long since west met. Have you missed me?”


    Sheena chuckled. “You’re still as cheeky as ever. Romello will probably have you engaged in another


    year or two, right?”


    Gabrielle scoffed at the mention of engagement, replying, “Being single is great. I have no interest in


    dating. It’s as you say, many people have set their sights on me. Romello has sent them all to introduce


    to that cheap sister of ours.”


    As she finished, she giggled, disying a mix of coyness and arrogance.


    Noticing her choice of words, Sheena’s expression turned cold. “You actually call her the ‘cheap sister


    “? It seems you don’t like her.”


    Gabrielle did not bother to hide it. “Yes, I don’t like her. I was the only daughter in the family for so


    many years, and all my brothers doted on me. But now,


    With her around, I have to share everything.” Sheena withdrew her hand from Gabrielle’s affectionate


    grip. “Where’s Romello? Take me to see him.


    “Sure thing.”


    Romello was in the living room, checking today’s arrangements.


    Gabrielle led them to the mansion’s entrance, and Sheena left Elliot in the garden and went inside with


    Howard to find Romello.


    Seeing them, Romello politely smiled, “You’re here early. Want to have some desserts in the garden


    later?”


    Sheena settled onto the sofa. “We’ll have themter. Mr. Romello, I brought Howard here specifically


    Chap 82


    to see you”


    Howard also took a seat on the sofa, actually smiling for once.


    “Oh?” Romello raised an eyebrow. “What’s the matter?”


    Sheena smiled. “What else could it be? It’s naturally about Howard and Phone’s marriage t tonight is


    Phoebe’s return banquet, I thought why not finalize the engagement early today? We can announce it


    during the banquet, double the celebrations.”

    Romello did not immediately respond and focused on pouring them tos instead.


    After a moment of tense silence, he finally spoke.


    “I wonder if you’ve prepared the engagement gifts, Mr. Howard.”


    Howard smiled sincerely, replying, “I’ve prepared to transfer Tangerine Entertainment and Dream Land


    Studios to Phoebe’s name. I’ll transfer the shares of bothpanies to her and release her from Angle


    Group’s contracts, allowing her to be a solo artist. I’ll also establish a specialized team to work


    exclusively for her. The studio will serve only her.”


    Both entertainmentpanies were substantial, with abined share value of 300 million.


    Furthermore, Howard was even forming a top–tier team to pave the way for Phoebe’s stardom.


    This showed considerable sincerity in the engagement gift.


    Romello’s expression slightly changed.


    “Howard, you’re indeed considerate of Phoebe. However, ording to courtesy, as an unmarried


    daughter of the Nicholls family, the engagement gifts should be given to the Nicholls family, not to her


    individually.”


    Upon hearing this, Sheena furrowed her brows but remained silent.


    Howard was also slightly taken aback.


    Being engaged to Phoebe naturally meant prioritizing her interests. Moreover, the Nicholls family had


    not supported her for all these years, and now, on the brink of engagement, they wanted to exploit her


    for profit.


    Howard felt annoyed but patiently asked, “What would you suggest then? I’d like to hear.”


    Romello raised her teacup and nodded toward Sheena and Howard across the coffee table.


    “It’s just a matter of engagement gifts, a small matter. Simply give 15% of the shares of the Lawson


    Group to the Nicholls family.”


    Sheena and Howard exchanged a nce, their expressions simultaneously changing after hearing


    those words.
