Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 340 340: We are leaving right now

Stefan drove to Hayes Mansion and welcomed his grandparents after dropping Ella off at home. They had always loved and cherished him because he was the only heir to carry on their legacy.

Stefan's grandparents had always prioritized boys over girls because they believed that in the long run, only men could operate the business, while girls would marry off at the appropriate marital age. However, his father strongly disagreed.

Marcus believed in equality and raised Stefan with the same ideals and perspectives. He never wanted his son to think he was superior unless he earned it.

After greeting and speaking, they all headed to the dining area for dinner.

Marcus hardly spoke, while Nancy, the considerate daughter-in-law, took care of everything. Stefan, too, kept engaging in discussion and brightening the mood.

"So, when are we going to meet our granddaughter-in-law?" Dmitri Hayes inquired.

"Yes, I heard a lot about her from your mother. She seems quite impressed with her," Maya said, casting a glance at Nancy.

"She is a beautiful soul, and I am sure you will adore her," Nancy said, extolling Ella before them.

It came as a surprise that Stefan was indeed seeing someone, and it piqued their interest to know more about the girl's background.

Maya's smile faltered as she rested the spoon back on the dish. "I hope she comes from an influential family, which matches our position. Her arrival should result in a favorable proposal that could be advantageous to our firm. You understand what I mean," she said thoughtfully.

Nancy exchanged a worried gaze with Marcus. "Mom, let's not talk about it now," he attempted to broach the subject, fully aware of what his mother was trying to convey.
