The Olsens and the Hortons were set to be joined in matrimony. That piece of news had been announced to the public for quite some time now.

Uncle Olsen burst into laughter. “Good, that brat has finally come to his senses! Today is indeed a day of happiness!”

The butler laughed too. “A day of happiness indeed!”

Ellis, upon hearing this, instinctively turned his gaze to his recently acknowledged cousin Keera.

He knew very well that Lewis had been staying at Keera’s place. Was this a move to make Keera his wife?
