The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 521 Inviting Them to Be the Witnesses

"Mr. Holden, Ms. Walker, sorry you had to see that. The three of us got a little emotional and couldn't quite hold it in," Jonathan said with an embarrassed chuckle.

He turned toward Marcus and Natalie with a drink in hand. "Come, let me raise a glass to the both of you."

"Of course," Marcus and Natalie replied at the same time, lifting their glasses and gently clinking them against Jonathan's.

Jonathan downed the entire drink in one go. "I'm feeling good today, so I'll finish this one. You two can take it easy."

"Dad, Mom, you guys aren't in the best health. Go easy on the drinks," Samuel gently reminded them.

Samuel and Sierra were already married when they were abroad. Now that they were back and Sierra had reconnected with her family, Samuel naturally started calling her parents Mom and Dad too.

He had no intention of ever acknowledging Ivan as his father, especially not after what he did. As for Samantha, she sent them overseas when they were young, so Samuel never felt close to her.

Even the bond with Sophia, his own sister, was thin. Sure, they kept in touch, but they did not grow up together, and their connection was honestly weaker than the ones he had with some of his close friends.

"Samuel, you already know Mr. Holden. Go spend some time with him, have a few more drinks, and catch up as guys. Cee, you should hang out with Ms. Walker. You're both women, and you'll definitely have more in common to talk about."

Jonathan took a breath to calm himself down. He knew he had been overly emotional, and it was not the right energy for hosting guests.

"Mr. Holden, I hope I'm not being too long-winded here. I'm just... really overwhelmed and happy right now," Jonathan said, raising his glass again.

"But I'm getting older, and with everything that's happened over the years, my health's taken a hit. So I'll drink this last one with you, and then I'm done for the night."
