Chapter 731

The group erupted in disbelief at the tale being recounted.

Maximus, his cheeks flushed from the wine, lamented, "Why do these great fortunes always pass me by? It's like being groomed for a golden retirement or stepping into an inheritance. Emmert's rolling in dough now." Gracie rolled her eyes exasperatedly, "Money, money, money, is that all you see?"

His voice turned whiny, "And now my wife's getting tough on me again."

Gracie didn't know what to say, "Mr. Finnegan, this one's sloshed. I better take him home."

"Go ahead, and while you're at it, set a date for the wedding, will ya? You're not getting any younger. Tie the knot and start a family already."

Gracie nodded with an easy grace, "We know, our parents are already discussing the dates. We'll send out the invites soon enough."

"Wow! Gracie, you and Maximus are finally making it official! My mentor's going to be over the moon!"

Gracie couldn't help but laugh, "She's the one who's most invested, dragging me to try on wedding dresses and scout out the best photographers for the wedding album."

"Isn't it good she cares so much?"

"Oh, absolutely, I adore her for it. She's been worrying about me for so long, now it's her turn to fret over me."

"Rightly so!"

With Gracie and Maximus gone, the rest of the group lingered, shooting the breeze with Mr. Finnegan who chuckled heartily at their banter, keeping the atmosphere light and cheerful.
