Chapter 483

In the grand lobby of the hotel, the Dorsey clan had just met up with the Rowland folks.

Truth be told, this wasn’t a gathering of three families. After all, when you were discussing nuptials, it was not exactly a group huddle situation.

The Dorseys and the Rowlands had already planned an early meeting here, and the Barnes clan happened to have booked the room next door, so all three ended up bumping into each other in the hallway.
