Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

Ronan and Evelyn immediately grasped their intentions upon seeing the array of gifts. They were more than happy to facilitate the connection.

Lynette took Lillian's hand and showered her with compliments. "Lillian, you're becoming more beautiful with each passing day. It's no wonder Steven is lovesick and unable to focus on anything else." Evelyn chimed in with a smile, "Steven is a remarkable young man. Lillian can't stop talking about him."

Lillian interjected, "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? That's not true."

"You see? She's too shy to admit it," Evelyn teased.

"Indeed. A young lady should be reserved," Lynette added with a knowing smile.

The two women exchanged banter, portraying Steven and Lillian as a budding couple deeply infatuated with each other.

Meanwhile, Ronan and Quinton were already discussing future collaborations and ambitious plans after the union.

While Steven was thrilled, Lillian was furious, feeling like no one cared about her feelings.

With a chuckle, Lynette suggested, "Since we're already at this point, let's finalize their marriage."

Evelyn promptly agreed.
