Chapter 526

After settling the matter, the Yamin family invited the Turner family couple to stay for dinner. However, they politely declined, citing their intention to return and report back.

Angie made a jest, and Emma thankfully expressed that they would dine together once her son returned.

The Yamin family gathered at the door to bid farewell to the Turner family and the Roberts family, displaying an abundance of enthusiasm.

In the car.

Grace assumed the driver role while Daniel occupied the back seat, engrossed in sending a message to Joseph. [The Yamin family has approved the marriage, but the formal engagement gift requires Christina’s confirmation.]

Daniel was aware of the situation’s sensitivity and opted not to call his son at that moment, avoiding any potential disruptions.

At that moment.

Joseph was enjoying a peaceful nap in the sunroom with Christina nestled in his arms when his phone buzzed in his pocket. Groggily, he retrieved it to discover a message from his father.

Joseph extended one hand from the blanket and replied, [Okay, I’ll discuss it with her when she wakes up].

However, Daniel refrained from responding, feeling awkward about inquiring if they were asleep.

Christina in his arms stirred like a little cat rubbing against him, and Joseph softly asked, “Are you awake? Are you still tired?”

Still in a drowsy state, Christina mumbled under the blanket, “Let me clear my head. Your phone keeps buzzing.”

“Yes, it’s probably from Ava. She’s likely inquiring about our situation,” he replied.

Christina weakly replied, “Did you tell her?”

Joseph seemed to state it like an everyday matter, “Well, I’ve taken care of your shareholders’ meeting for you.”

“Okay.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that something was amiss.

She was taken aback by his mention of a shareholders’ meeting.

The next moment, Christina abruptly opened her eyes and gazed at him with disbelief. She realized this shareholders’ meeting referred to a family gathering, not a corporate shareholders’ meeting. “You’re serious? You called them?”

Her enchanting eyes brimmed with a mixture of surprise and curiosity. They widened as she leaned forward on his chest and excitedly craned her head. Joseph gently pushed her hair away from her face and explained, “While we were sleeping, my parents hurried over to your house to propose.”
