Chapter 485


    Seeing that his wife did not pursue the matter of registering for a marriage certificate, William became


    very suspicious for just a moment. Then he turned to look at his daughter.


    Was it possible that his daughter brought it up previously to his wife so that she would not pursue this


    matter much? Did the boy from the Landor family take the initiative to take the me?


    That was possibly how things went. Otherwise, there was no way that his way would back down so


    easily.


    William sighed heavily inside. He previously thought that his daughter could still stay at home for a few


    more years. He did not expect her to move away so soon. How did she get married after just taking a


    trip?


    In the future, he would not be able to see his daughter every day. On the other hand, it would be a long


    time before his future daughter-inw got married into his family. the Roberts family would be a bit


    quiet from now on.


    William, who was used to having people around, felt a little disappointed and had mixed feelings.


    Rose originally wanted to see her father’s reaction, however, now she felt bad after seeing William


    being unhappy. She took out her phone and sent a text message to her father, [Dad, although I am


    going to get married, I can still stay with you guys. I’ll take turns staying at both their house and ours. If


    you ever miss me, I’lle home for you right away.]


    A notification sound came from William’s phone, he took it out and saw that it was a message from his


    precious daughter. He turned to look at Rose and saw his daughter yfully raising her chin for him to


    check his phone. William lowered his head and read Rose’s long message. A smile finally appeared on


    his face. He was d to know that his daughter was so mature that she knew what he was thinking


    about.


    William replied to ha


    text, [Fine, I understand.].


    Rose sent another message


    it okay for Edward and I to spend the night here?]


    Though William was not willing to let Edward stay at his house, he still agreed since his daughter would


    spend the night at his house as well. He replied, [Sure, I’ll do whatever to make you happy.]


    A son-inw would always be his father-inw’s natural enemy.


    The discussion of wedding gifts continued while the younger generation watched on the side. Since this


    was a matter that should be hosted by the Landor family, Juana decided to let Richard take charge and


    handle this matter gracefully.


    Richard went straight to the point. “Thank you for being generous and not fussing over Edward’s


    mistake. Another reason for us toe today is mainly to propose marriage. Although they have


    already received marriage certificates, we still have to make up for what we should have offered Rose.


    Our entire family is quite fond of Rose. My wife talks about her every day. You can rest assured that we


    will treat Rose the same way we treat Sherri.”


    William waved his hand and continued to behave politely. “Actually, the Roberts family doesn’t really


    care about wedding gifts. Rose is our greatest treasure. If your son takes Rose with him, but can’t


    treasure her like we did, my suggestion is to stop this whole thing right now.”


    The Roberts family did not care to marry Rose into the Landor family if she was not going to be treated


    properly. They surely could afford to let Rose stay with them. The Roberts family’s bottom line in


    agreeing with this marriage was that their daughter would be properly taken care of.


    Sensing that his father-inw was in a tense mood, Edward immediately said, “William, I can definitely


    do that.”


    Grace fiddled with her sleeves. Her tone was calm, but there was also a hint of deterrence. “Remember


    your words.” Edward nodded. Frank casually sat at the side and yed with his phone. He pursed his


    lips and did not say anything. Once both families reached an agreement, it would not be possible for


    them to break the deal.


    Richard said, “A few days ago, Edward asked me to transfer all the shares under his name to Rose.


    Here is the document of that. Rose, please sign it. Here is a list of the other wedding gifts. The vi


    next to the Landor family is under your name as well. Edward put it under your name when he bought


    it.”


    Rose was deeply touched. Why was this fool always doing this kind of thing in secret?


    Grace was not pretentious. She took the document on the table and roughly skimmed it. “This is too


    much. Our gifts for this wedding were 30%. We only ask you to match our part. We don’t need this


    many gifts. Our sole requirement is for Rose to be happy.”


    The gifts from the Landor family were 50%.


    Juana waved her hand and said straightforwardly, “This is not too much at all. Rose deserves it. After


    all, Edward is the one who would be considered taking advantage of Rose by marrying her.”


    William was not someone who was greedy for wealth. If he was offered cash, he might just ept it.


    However, their family was offered the shares of thepany of the Landor family. This did not seem


    appropriate to him. It was as if to change the Landor Group to Roberts Group. He said, “We are simply


    marrying our daughter into your family. We have no n of taking over yourpany. Please


    reconsider your hospitality.”


    Grace nodded in agreement. “Let’s exchange 10%.”

    Edward objected. If it was just an exchange, he felt that his family would end up not showing enough


    sincerity. “Mr and Mrs. Roberts, 30% of Rose’s shares will be hers no matter what. It will not be


    integrated into our marriage assets. Since Mrs. Roberts thinks this is too much, I will give 10% of my


    share to Rose. Additionally, I will draft another contract that indicates all of the assets under my name


    will be transferred to Rose if I ever cheated on her.”


    Hackett thought, “Edward is basically saying that he will leave this marriage without anything if anything


    happens. Should I help him if he left their house with only a pair of underwear at that time?


    “He’s being too harsh on himself.”


    The sharp-tongued Frank continued to remain silent. He only curled his lips when no one was able to


    him. He was satisfied.


    In the end, things went the way Edward wanted. It was also because Grace did not want to reject the


    kindness of this child. Edward said, “The drafted document will be sent over tonight.” Grace replied,


    “You don’t have to rush. It can happen tomorrow.” However, Edward still texted Kyle Jenkins to ask him


    to start preparing the document.


    Edward, who was known for always abiding by the rules, did not like to procrastinate. He is


    straightforward and decisive. Once a decision was made, he wouldn’t be able to sleep that night until


    he signed off on it.


    Mr. and Mrs. Roberts asked the Landor family to stay for dinner. Because it was their first timeing


    to the Roberts family, when they first arrived, they did not have a chance to take a proper look around


    the ce.


    Juana was simply focused on settling the marriage for her son and worried about it. She was not in the


    mood to pay attention to her surroundings. Now that they had some free time, Juana wanted to look


    around in the courtyard. Grace stood up and said to Rose, “Rose, it’s still early for dinner, you take


    Edward to tour around here.”


    Frank stood up and said to Edward, who was sitting across from him, “Let’s go. I’ll show you a new


    world.”


    There was no point in touring this courtyard. Edward had already toured this ce except for Rose’s


    room. As a man, Frank obviously knew that Edward wanted to see Rose’s room the most.


    He assumed that his sister probably wanted to bring him upstairs too, but she was too embarrassed to


    say it.


    Edward nodded in gratitude and said to Grace, “Dad, Mom, I’ll go up first.”


    William was stunned. It did not seem that repulsive to have another person call him father. He decided


    to ept the reality and simply take it as he had another son. While acting as an elder, he nodded his


    head and replied to Edward, “Okay.”


    He looked like an old boss to Edward.


    Grace also said, “Okay.”


    Rose saw that Edward had already changed how he addressed her parents, and her parents had


    already epted that. She felt like she had to do the same, otherwise, it would be very rude.


    She tidied the air on her corbone and prepared emotionally. She smiled and called out, “Dad, Mom.”


    Grace did not say anything. She knew that Rose was not talking to her. However, it was different for


    William. He subconsciously thought that his daughter was calling him and directly responded to her.


    At that moment, the situation became a bit awkward. Richard couldn’t respond to Rose even if he


    wanted to. Juana was grinning happily. She even took out two red packets from her pocket and stuffed


    them into Rose’s hands. “Here, I almost forgot about this. I’m old and my memory isn’t good. Don’t


    mind me.”


    “That’s okay. Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Dad.”


    the Landor family had given her bouquets as a gift. the Roberts family had returned home in a hurry


    and was unprepared. Grace said, “I’ll make up for it tonight.” She meant to say this to Edward.


    Edward smiled. “Mom, we don’t have to do that. It’s okay.”


    Grace was never short of manners. “I’ll take you around the courtyard to familiarize yourself with it.”


    This was directed at Juana. She had long noticed her intentions to look around.


    Juana thought to herself, “Those rumors about her are fake, right? Rose’s mother has quite a nice


    personality. She’s not that cold and she’s good-looking.”


    Grace looked like a twin sister to Rose. Their hair had simr lengths. One was casually tied up, and


    the other was loose.


    “Alright, alright. Grace, how muchnd does your family upy? It’s really big.” Juana felt that it was


    nice to have a big ce like this for her to stay when she became old. She thought that William and


    Grace were great at pickingnd.


    Grace rolled up the sleeves of her clothes and walked towards the courtyard. “I’ve forgotten exactly


    how big thisnd is. In the beginning, it wasn’t that big. Later on, we increased bit by bit and bought all


    thend around it. At first, there was only one house. William bought all thend around itter.”


    “It seemed that it was a bad deal for Rose to marry into our family. There is no way that our vi in the


    city will be asfortable as your ce.”


    Grace smiled. “I don’t talk too much and I’m not very good atmunicating, so…” Sometimes she


    was not being rude, nor was she being ignorant of people.


    Juana understood her. Everyone’s personalities were different. Not everyone was as easy to talk to as


    she and Joy ckwell. She interrupted Grace. “It’s fine. I am very talkative. I’m an outgoing person, so


    don’t worry. I’ll definitely get along well with Rose. I’ll treat her as my own daughter. To be honest, I was


    worried sick about my son. He usually didn’t talk much. I thought he was going to be single for the rest


    of his life. He never brought a girlfriend home before.”


    Grace smiled. “Rose’s personality is lively and sometimes very yful.” Edward’s personality was


    indeed much calmer.


    “That’s good. It means that theyplement each other. My son should find someone like Rose.


    Otherwise, if he found someone like him, how could he spend the rest of his life without talking much?


    They will probably just stare at the ceiling all day.” When Juana heard that, she felt that her son and


    daughter-inw were really a perfect match. They were simply a match made in heaven.


    In the living room, William was clearly not in a very good mood. As someone who had been through


    this before, Richard hugged William’s shoulder. They seemed like two brothers. “It’s not a big deal. My


    daughter has just gotten married. A while ago, she just gave birth to a son. Our entire family stays with


    the ckwell family. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Hackett. Hackett, Am I right?”


    Hackett, who was sitting at the side, finally had a chance to speak. He almost suffocated to death by


    not being able to talk. “Yes. Because Sherri is going to rest for two months after giving birth, my parents


    invited Richard and Juana to stay at the ckwell family. It’s very lively at our house.”


    Right after Hackett finished talking.


    Richard continued, “In the future, if your daughter has a baby, we’ll stay at your house. You guys/can


    stay at mine. That should be fine, right? It’ll only make our houses more lively.”


    Richard, who had always acted as a mascot today, finally started being useful.


    “If that doesn’t work, we can switch to staying at each other’s houses every other day.”


    Since Richard had already said so, William could no longer act tense since he wanted to be a cool


    person. “That’s not what I meant. I’m just too sad to see my baby girl leave. Rose is my treasure. This


    is a deal now. We can’t let Rose stay at your house every single day.”


    Richard promised him. He hade with a mission. Before he came, Juana had assigned him a


    mission and asked him to take down William. “That’s for sure. As the elders, we will definitely not


    interfere with where Rose wants to stay. You can call at any time.”


    With that, William’s depressive mood dissipated a lot. He asked politely, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to have


    some coffee. Hackett, you can go upstairs and hang out with Frank and the others.”
