Chapter 974

This was already a big step for Paul.

After all, it would be too tough for him to grow mature overnight. He required more time.

After Paul left, both Jamie and Narissa felt helpless with the situation. It was originally a happy occasion for them, but the ambiance seemed awkward now.

Just like everyone else, they too wished to have everyone's blessing on their special day.

Fortunately, Elise and her family came and joined the fun so that the couple wouldn't leave any regrets on such an important day.

"Congratulations! Things have finally turned out well for you two!" Elise brought her two kids downstairs to congratulate Jamie and Narissa. "We have to celebrate such a joyous event! Have you made a reservation, Jamie? You have to treat me to a great meal today!"

Jamie's earlier gloomy expression was replaced with a smile when he heard Elise's words. "Don't worry, Boss. It's my treat, but I am afraid that we can't have the meal today," he said, scratching the back of his head shyly.

"Why?" Elise sounded perplexed.

"We have already agreed among ourselves that we will deal with Gale first. Only after that, we will host our engagement party and invite all our families and friends," Narissa answered on behalf of Jamie, as if she were the head of their small family, not forgetting to take a few glances at the man while speaking.

Elise felt happy for them both as she observed how in love they appeared to be. "I see. No matter what, at least the misunderstanding surrounding you both has cleared. Things will only get better from now on!"

"Gale is a b*stard for plotting so many things in the dark, causing us to nearly let go of each other. How I wish I could send him to jail right now!" After sorting out the specifics of what had transpired with Narissa on their way here, Jamie's resentment at Gale had grown.

"Really? I thought what you wish is to get a wife right now!" Elise joked.

Jamie and Narissa immediately felt shy when they heard that. Both of them let out an awkward smile while looking at each other and felt embarrassed to stay any longer.

"See you at the engagement party, then. We're leaving now."

Narissa then turned and headed outdoors with Jamie trailing behind.
