Chapter 174 You’ll Be Surprised

“Alright, but there’s something I have to tell you first,” Elise said.

Upon hearing that, Alexander put down his tableware and looked at her seriously. “Go on.”

“I want our engagement to be simple,” she quickly mumbled. “A meal with our families will be enough.”

“Is this what you want?” After Elise nodded her head, he continued, “Since it’s what you want, that’s settled, then. Is there anyone in the family that you want to invite other than your grandfather and grandmother?”

“No, it’s just them. I’ll invite the others to our wedding.”

“Okay, that settles it, then. We’ll do it after the New Year.”

When they finally came to an agreement, Elise secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Every girl more or less hoped for a perfect wedding once in their life, but since Jonah passed away not long ago, it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to have a grand ceremony, so they decided to keep it simple.

After their meal, she went back to her room and sat in front of the window alone. As she gazed outside the window thinking about something, someone knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” The moment she said that, Alexander opened the door and entered. “Why are you here?” she asked. When she saw the exquisite box in his hands, she walked over to him.

“Here you go. It’s for you.”

Upon seeing that, Elise felt rather confused. “And this is?”

“Your Christmas present.”

She received the box in disbelief and as soon as she opened it, she was shocked. “This…”
