Erine smiled. "Yes, your timing was perfect. Thank you,"
"Erine, have you been given many hardships these days because of them?" Everleigh asked.
Erine nodded. Now that the matter had been exposed, there was no point in hiding it anymore. She took a deep breath and said, "They want me to marry someone from the Laneigh family. I don't want to be involved in their affairs. You all know that I am an illegitimate daughter. My identity will not be liked by others. Likewise, I hate my father. Why can't I make my own decisions?" Erine said in a flat tone, but her hatred for her father did not decrease at all.
Everleigh and Christopher looked at each other. It was indeed not a good thing, but there was no choice.
"Then what are you going to do now?" He asked worriedly.
Erine said with an embarrassed smile, "You are my boyfriend now. I helped you deceive your family before, and it's time for you to return the favor."
She realized that Christopher's identity was significant. At least with him around, it would make things better.
He raised his eyebrows, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. "If so, you can come with me to the family banquet tomorrow. I was going to find an excuse to say that you were too busy to attend. Now that you have mentioned this, we are mutually beneficial to each other. What do you think?"
After hearing what he had said, she was upset. He began to use the privilege as soon as he opened his mouth. He didn't ask for her will.
Everleigh smiled and said, "I knew you wouldn't agree that fast. It turns out that you were waiting for her answer."
"I'm forced to do so. My two sisters are tough to deal with. If I'm not careful enough, they will find out the flaws. It's hard to say, but I heard that Lenold will be coming over, and I'm guessing that he is there to meet with my parents,"
"Then I'd better not go," Erine quickly replied. She was the imposter, and it was not appropriate to attend such events.
Upon hearing this, Christopher's face darkened. "If you dare to say no, I will tell your parents that our relationship is fake," "Fine, fine. I was wrong. I'll go," Everleigh laughed even louder, "In fact, you don't have to be nervous. The Meyer family is very kind. Whether it's real or not, they will like you,"
"I know," Erine felt that they were too enthusiastic and she felt guilty, so...
Upon hearing their plans for the gathering. Everleigh was thinking about whether she should bring Theodore to the Jenkins family.
Once the decision was made, it was time to make a move. After listening to Everleigh, Theodore was excited. He bought gifts to pay a visit to the Jenkins family.
On the evening of the next day, Erine bought a lot of gifts with her upon her arrival. When Vanessa saw her coming, her heart was filled with joy. "Oh, you finally came. I've asked Christopher about you."
Erine smiled and said, "I was busy recently, so I didn't have the time to come over. This is a token of my sincerity. I hope you don't mind." As she spoke, she handed over the gifts in her hand.
Vanessa didn't mind. As long as Erine came, it was better than anything else.
At the same time, Felicia and Lenold had already entered the house. He also came in with a lot of things in his hands.
"You're here. Come in quickly and have a seat,"
Vanessa hurriedly called out to them.
Lenold walked in and saw Christopher and Ysabelle, along with a woman he had never seen before.
"Hello, everyone."
"Hello, I'm Erine Harrison." She stood up and introduced herself politely.
Hearing her name, Lenold smiled. "I heard from Cecil that there was a woman challenging Miss Lawson during the wine party."
Erine's face turned red and she felt very embarrassed. "I..."
"Miss Harrison, you don't have to feel embarrassed. It's normal to fight back when you encounter something unpleasant." He saw that she was embarrassed and said in a hurry. However, after hearing Cecil's words many times, his memory was still fresh.
Felicia also took a fancy to Erine. This girl was glib, polite, and had good manners. Such a person was most suitable for socializing.
"Have a seat, everyone. It's rare for all of you to gather together. I'm going to the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes." Vanessa was very happy. Two of her three children had found their partners.
There was only one left. Ysabelle was the eldest daughter, and she had her own opinions on things, so she did not worry about it.
It seemed that Lenold was not good at socialising. On the other hand, Erine was good at talking. She was very lively.
The Meyer family home was peaceful.
Over at the Jenkins family manor.
Alexander came in with Cecil. Saniogo was full of joy and looked forward to meeting his daughter- in-law. When he saw her, his eyes lit up.
"Finally, you're here. Come in and have a seat,"
"Nice to meet you, Uncle. This is a gift I bought for you. It's a token of my gratitude. I hope you don't mind," Cecil said with a smile.
Saniogo looked at the gifts and didn't care much about them. He let them in to have a seat.
Cynthia walked down the stairs. She never intended to come back, but Alexander was injured. Her parents had asked her to come and see him, so she was in no hurry to go back.
Who would have thought that they would see such a scene again?
When Cynthia saw Cecil, her face turned slightly cold. "Why are you here?"
"Can't you see that I'm here as a guest?" "You..." Cynthia's eyes widened, and the anger in her eyes instantly ignited.
Cecil sat on the sofa without looking at her gloomy face. She came here that day because she was Alexander's girlfriend. She didn't come here to let Cynthia look down on her. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Alexander knew that Cynthia disliked her, but since he chose Cecil, he would not let her be wronged. "Cynthia, if you don't like Cecil, you can go upstairs. Today is our family banquet."
In other words, he was hinting that if she didn't like it, she could just leave.
Cynthia closed her mouth and sat aside unwillingly. Where could she go now? Her parents were not here.
Saniogo felt that Cynthia was being rude. No matter what, Cecil came here as a guest. She didn't have to look down on her if she didn't like her. Moreover, he was satisfied with his daughterin- law and couldn't care less what others were thinking about.
"Cecil, what do you like to eat?"
"I'm fine with anything..."
"Dad, she likes seafood and spicy food, as well as creme brulee and pudding for dessert," Alexander said seriously.
Saniago looked at him and remembered everything carefully. It was obvious how much he
cared about Cecil.
Cecil was very surprised as they seldom had dinner together, yet he remembered every detail.
"Alexander, you remembered them clearly. I'm afraid that you'll forget what your aunt likes to eat," Cynthia said coldly on the side.
He remembered everything about an outsider, but she was sure that no one could remember anything about her.
Alexander and Saniogo looked at each other and felt that it was troublesome now that she had come back.
However, Cecil didn't mind. She turned her head and replied in a natural and graceful way, "That's your cousin's love for me. He wouldn't pay any mind to a person he doesn't care about."
