Chapter 541 Preparing For The Engagement Ceremony

"Grandpa Charles, please?"

Natalie reached out and lightly pinched Charlotte's arm.

Charlotte immediately caught on and quickly chimed in. "That's right, Mr. Holden Senior. William and I don't have your eye for aesthetics. We've been retired for years. We'll need your guidance and advice. Our family will support you, but you'll have to take the lead. You have to guide us."

As Charlotte spoke, she gave William a nudge. He quickly followed up. "Yes, yes, Charlotte and I don't know much about this sort of thing. We'll be relying on your help."

Charles just stared at them in silence.

He thought that the Walker couple words were getting more and more exaggerated. With their abilities, there was no way they couldn't plan an engagement.

But he understood what they were doing. Natalie and her parents were trying to distract him, to keep his mind occupied.

"Grandpa Charles, please? The three... no, all eight of us are begging you." Natalie pouted. She rarely acted cute, and when she did, it always felt a little forced.

Marcus remained silent, but his reddened eyes betrayed his emotions.

Natalie felt uncomfortable acting this way, but still she forced herself to continue. "Grandpa Charles, please? Just say yes, okay? This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment for me and your grandson."

Marcus could no longer hold back. His voice broke, heavy with emotion, as he forced the words out, his eyes red-rimmed. "Please say yes."

Looking at Marcus' red-rimmed eyes and hearing the way he choked out his words, Charles finally relented.

"Alright, I'll do it. I'll discuss the engagement arrangements with Nat's parents," he said, his voice trembling. His eyes were also red-rimmed as he patted Marcus' shoulder.

"Thank you, Grandpa Charles. And thank you, Mom and Dad," Natalie said sweetly.

"No need to be polite with us, go spend time with Marcus. We have work to do now with Mr. Holden Senior," Charlotte said, ruffling Natalie's hair.

"Alright."
