Chapter 404

Zeke looked away and lowered his head.

After a brief silence, he said slowly, “We can get engaged first and discuss the wedding two years later. I've just taken over the Shurmer family, so I'm too busy to plan a wedding.”

Everyone in the living room heaved a sigh of relief when they heard him agreeing to the engagement.

They were worried he would refuse to marry Shirley no matter what.

Richard relaxed. “Sure. You can get engaged first.”

He turned to his daughter and asked, “What do you think?”

Shirley could barely hide her delight.

Finally, Zeke agrees to get engaged to me. As long as we are engaged, I'm confident he'll stay by my side. Everyone in the Shurmer family and the Gourd family knew Zeke had sex with me and that I am his woman. I'll be his wife as long as the b*tch Juliana doesn't do anything to break us up.

“I'll follow Zeke's wishes. Just do as he said,” she replied shyly.

Richard guffawed in joy and gazed at Steven, who was sitting across from him. “We finally fulfill our wish of being in-laws.”

Steven nodded. “The Shurmer family is blessed to have a daughter-in-law like Shirley. They will finally marry each other, so our wish has come true.”

“Yes, you're right.”

Zeke got up and said calmly, “I need to get back to work, so I'll be heading back to my office now.”

He then walked toward the door.

Seeing that, Waverly promptly called out, “We have a dinner party tonight. I have asked the butler to call Lionel, so he'll be here later. Remember to be back in time for dinner.”

“Mm.”
