Aaron gazed at Zinnia, his face brimming with a gentle smile as he struggled to contain his excitement. Carefully, he placed the bag in his left hand onto the coffee table in front of Zinnia.

In the bag were the gifts Aaron bought abroad. He then pulled a card from his suit jacket and handed it to

Zinnia.

He said, “Zinnia, this is our first meeting, and I don’t know what you like yet. I hope you don’t mind these little gifts. Here, take this card. My taste isn’t the best, so you can pick out something you like.”

The Lynn family felt somewhat reassured after observing Aaron’s attitude. While Yvette and Maisie truly adored Zinnia, it was the approval of Aaron, the head of the Jenkins family, that ultimately put their minds at

ease.

Before Zinnia could react, Maisie had already snatched the card and stuffed it into Zinnia’s hand. She beamed and said, “Quick, take it, Zinnia! Next time we go shopping, we’ll use Dad’s card. Might as well spend his money while we can!”

Just then, the doorbell rang. Yannis went to answer it. It was Raymond who arrived.

Raymond’s clear, booming voice echoed through the living room before he even appeared.

He said, “Henry, thank you for giving us such a wonderful granddaughter. I have brought the lawyer and the statement here. Zinnia, come on! Let’s get the paperwork done. Once it’s finished, you’ll officially be part of our family!” He finished with a triumphant chuckle.

Accompanying Raymond was a lawyer who was present to notarize the statement.

Sofia gently patted Zinnia’s hand and asked, “Zinnia, would you prefer to be officially registered with the Lynn family or the Jenkins family?”
