Serve No One This Life

Chapter 91 Hundreds of Tables of Relatives

Donald had been a teacher for decades and was widely regarded as an exceptional educator. He held himself to

high moral standards and rarely lost his temper. However, when he did becangry, a mere change in his

facial expression was enough to instill fear in people.

With a stern expression, he said, “I am just an ordinary man who doesn’t know how to sugarcoat things. | don’t

want to hypocritically talk about how money is merely an external possession. Angela is our beloved child. Both

her aunt and | treat her as our own daughter. We only wish for her well-being and happiness. As long as she lives

a happy life, we don’t ask for anything more.

“You're all of the wealthy family, so even if we were to empty our coffers to accompany her dowry, it would still

pale in comparison in your eyes. But we're not selling off our niece. We're not greedy for your wealth. All of these

betrothal gifts, along with what we provide as dowry, will be given to Angela. Not a single penny will be kept.

“Nothing puts our mind more at ease than you treating our Angela well.”

Not keep a single penny?! Emilia stood up in great shock and anger. That was a mountain of wealth; the cash

alone amounted to millions, not to mention the several residential properties. She believed giving any one of

those houses to her eldest son would ensure them. a comfortable life and thought her son-in-law was out of his

mind not to want anything.

Quincy's expression turned cold, and he reached out to restrain his grandmother's arm, his voice tinged with

frost. “Grandma, if you keep talking like this, they will think we're greedy and money-minded. Imagine if they

reconsider Angela and choose someone else instead. We'd end up with nothing.”

Her grandmother was, to put it bluntly, money-hungry. Letting go of the money that was already within her

grasp was like a knife to the heart, and her outburst made both families. uncomfortable. It would also damage

Angela’s reputation if she went through with the marriage.

By reminding his grandmother to leave a way out and weigh the options bfthis money or having a chance

to gain it, the elderly woman would finally restr

tely losing herself.

For someone always shrewd about anything relating to money, Emilia shut up within seconds and sat back down

obediently.

Donald was Angela’s paternal uncle, and given how close they were, especially when Angela invited him and not

her father to represent her family on her engagement, it proved that Donald meant a lot more to Angela.

in Angela’s hands now, she certainly would help her uncle out if he encountered any difficulties, wouldn't she?

On the other hand, if they scared off their prospective son-in-law, they would end up with nothing. No, she

couldn't possibly let other girls benefit from this!

Emilia’s eyes darted around as she thought quickly before eventually whispering, “Alright, I'll listen to you.

Education does make a difference. Your mind works fast, Quincy”

Quincy tugged at his lips, snorted, and fell silent.

All the shrewdness in this room belonged to the Sanderses and Lawsons. His parents. wouldn't have the slightest

clue even if they were being discussed for money! As for his grandmother's scheming, Bruce and Kevin paid no

attention to it at all!

He took a quick survey and found that the two elders were wholly unfazed, not even a flicker in their gazes.

Following his words of conviction, Donald handed the gift lists to Angela, speaking gently, “Here, Angela, hold on

to them. They're all yours. With these things, you'll have a foundation. After you're married, settle down and

make the most of it.

Hecate, too, held Angela’s hand with red-rimmed eyes as she pressed the gift list into it. “If Jonathan mistreats

you, you can divorce him with this money. With money, you can still live a good life.”,

Jonathan was stupefied. He couldn’t believe they were already discussing divorce right before his eyes.

Quincy, who had been tense all along, couldn't help chuckling when he saw the stupefaction that flashed across

Jonathan, and he chirped, “Mom's right. If Mr. Lawson treats you poorly. take the money and leave. At that point,

you'll beca rich woman worth billions.

Seeing that his son’s words were becoming out of line, Donald shot him a stern glance, admonishing. “Excuse

you! Is this how you should speak as Angela's cousin?”

Quincy shrugged in response, playing dumb as he buried his head in the food. Meals at the Laurel Hotel were

rare occasions. He knew he should eat while he had the chance.

Meanwhile, Donald pulled out a small box from his pocket. “We originally planned to celebrate your birthday

today, especially since you're turning twenty this year. But it's also good that we're celebrating your

engagement today. Your uncle, | have average taste in things, so | hope you'll like the birthday gift | got you.

“Tflies. You're twenty and grown up now...

It seemed like it was just yesterday when they brought this scrawny little girl back. Now, she had grown into a

fine young lady and was about to be married.

Tears began welling up in Donald's eyes, and for once, the usually dignifying and steady man shed a tear.

Angela held two pieces of gilt paper in one hand and a small red velvet box containing a pair. of dainty gold

flower earrings in the other.

Uncle Donald still remembers my birthday.

Tears, too, welled up in Angela’s eyes as she threw herself into Donald's embrace. “Thank you, Uncle Donald.

From now on, you're my father, just like Queenie and Quincy are to you! | will care for you just like they will!”

Donald smiled comfortingly and patted her head.

“A man of character, you are, Donald. | like it! You and your wife can entrust Angela to Jon; rest assured. If Jon

ever mistreats Angela, I'll be the first to give him a piece of my mind!” Bruce, with a thunderous voice, slammed

the table and shouted to the server outside. “Someone, bring all the whiskey | stored here! Today calls for a

celebration! Let's drink up!”

Bruce's face was flushed as he stood up, hooking his arm around Donald's shoulder, and went

lo

sit down on his side, engaged in enthusiastic conversation with each other in just a few words.

In no time, the servers brought the liquor over, and Bruce began pouring the drinks one after another. “Cheers to

the young couple! Here's to a long and happy life!”

Donald's tolerance for alcohol was average, but he had to drink for Angela's sake. So, he gritted his teeth and

took a sip.

Quincy narrowed his eyes. He knew his father couldn't possibly outdrink Bruce, so after just a second of

contemplation, he grabbed a bottle and a glass and joined the fray.

Kevin glanced over and sneered. He's done at least one good thing.

A moment later, Kevin turned to Hecate with a smile. “Mrs. Kins, the marriage is set in stone then. Jon isn't

getting any younger, so we have them sign the marriage certificate first. We'll skip the engagement party and

hold a wedding instead. When do you think would be a suitable date? How should the wedding be decorated?

How many of Angela’s friends and family can we expect? How many tables do you foresee needing?”

Kevin's series of questions left Hecate bewildered, unable to keep up. In the end, all she could manage was that

she would go along with their plans and follow Angela’s preferences.

She worried she'd embarrass Angela by saying something she shouldn't have. After all, families like the Lawsons

certainly didn’t hold weddings like common folks would.

That said, she was able to give Kevin one straight answer. “We're a small family, so we won't take up many

tables. What about you guys? How many tables will your side take up?”

Her question stumped Kevin, and he seriously contemplated. “A little over a hundred tables...

Cagain?! Hecate was gobsmacked.
