Chapter 86

A few more days passed amidst the continuous autumn rain.

On the day of the engagement banquet, the overcast sky that had lingered for days finally cleared up.

It was the joyous day of Tessa's engagement. Her entire family had woken up early at the Yates residence.

She wore a light pink modern-style dress, her hair styled into an elegant bun adorned with pearl accessories.
