Chapter 261 Engagement
Vera entered the room, walking arm in arm with Eric.
“I apologize for the delay. There was some traffic on the road,” Eric explained.
Vera followed Eric timidly, keeping her head low and remaining silent. She avoided looking around, behaving cautiously and restrained. Finally, she took a seat next to Eric at the long table.
Layla was the last to arrive, taking her seat at the head of the table alongside Will.
Will stood up to greet her, “Layla, I’ve heard so much about you. How have you been feeling lately?”
Considering him as the future son-in-law of the Smith family, Layla responded, “Not too bad. I won’t d just yet. Anyway, I’m sure everyone must be getting hungry by now. Let’s start the feast.”
As Layla picked up her cutlery, she handed Eileen, who was sitting next to her, a piece of sweet and sour pork. “You’ve lost weight these past few days. These are all your favorite dishes, so eat up.”
“Thank you, Grandma,” Eileen said gratefully.
Layla gave her a faint smile. “When I came here, I asked the priest of Tuzbum Church to pick out an auspicious date for you and Jasper. According to what Jasper said, the third day after your exams is a go day. We’ve set the engagement date for then. What do you think?”

Jasper gently ran his fingers through Eileen’s hair, his gaze filled with tenderness. At first, Eileen and 1 thought the same. But since Grandma has already made her decision, we’ll follow her lead. What do you think, Father?”
Will laughed, clearly the happiest person in the room. “Eileen is lucky to be valued by the Smith family and marrying into it. Naturally, I agree.”
Layla nodded. ‘She will be the future lady of the house. Following tradition, I will give you the Freephens Mansion as your engagement gift. The property will be registered under Eileen’s name alone. What do you think. Jasper?”
“Sure thing Jasper agreed.
Elcen quickly refused. “No, that’s too extravagant of a gift Jasper and I are only engaged, so! cant accept such an expensive present. I really can’t accept it. Grandma’
