Chapter 284 Has The Engagement Ceremony Ended.

The Smith family didn’t have many relatives in attendance.

John’s absence remained a mystery known only to the Smith family.

However, no one mentioned it. Everyone in their social circle remembered the scandal when Jacqueline divorced John years ago. No one dared to gossip about the affairs of Hulbury’s most prestigious family.

John also had two brothers and a sister.

They rarely made public appearances as they managed the Smith Corporation’s subsidiaries, so Eileen. rarely had the chance to see them.

Eileen greeted each person according to their seniority, receiving several monetary gifts in the process. With a thick stack in hand, she handed them over to the attendant by her side.

She received a monetary gift that contained enough money to cover the down payment for a flat in the heart of Hulbury.

When it came to material possessions, Jasper was never stingy. Eileen even knew the combination of the safe in Jasper’s room. Inside, apart from gold bars, there was cash they used for their leisurely outings.

Eric leaned in close to Vera, whispering something in her ear that couldn’t be heard. She set down her wine glass, and Eric handed her a new one, pouring her a glass of non-alcoholic fruit juice.

The atmosphere seemed peaceful, but underneath the surface, it was tumultuous. Will narrowed his eyes. his smile insincere. “From now on, I’ll leave Eileen in your care. She’s never suffered much since she was little. She’s the one I cherish the most. If she’s spoiled and willful, I hope you can be patient with her. She’s young and doesn’t understand things yet.”

Jasper had slicked his hair back, donning a black suit that made him look dashing and handsome. The scar on his neck, a remnant from a removed tattoo, was concealed by Eileen with foundation. From a distance, it was completely unnoticeable. Normally, a makeup artist would handle this, but Jasper refused to let anyone else touch him, so she had to do it.

Jasper looked at Eileen with deep affection. “Eileen will be my wife from now on. No matter what she does, I will, of course, pamper her. It’s only right for her to be willful at this age.”

Vera walked over, holding a wine glass in both hands, a smile playing at the corners of her mouth. “Congratulations, Eileen. You look truly beautiful today. Here’s to your future filled with happiness and joy. Eric and I will always be your family. Make sure to visit home often when you have the time. Eric and I will always be delighted to see you.”

Eileen clinked her wine glass with Vera’s. “I will.”
