“Don’t you want Austin as your future son-in-law?”

Looking at his wife’s speechless expression, Hadrian said, “If you can’t accept a son-in-law like Austin, our daughter would probably never get married.

“However, you’ll get worried if she doesn’t get married and stays by our side.

“We weren’t good parents. I feel sorry for making Isa take on such a tiring responsibility of managing the family business at a young age. We can’t keep her by our side forever. She has to find her happiness.

“As parents, aren’t we glad as long as our children are happy? They don’t have to be millionaires. Well, our family is wealthy enough. Isa just has to assess the man’s character when choosing a partner.

“We can still accept someone with a slightly lower social status or lesser wealth than us.

“I think Austin is a great fit. Our families are well-matched too.”

Delphine said, “Don’t you think Austin lives too far away? He’s from Wiltspoon. That’s thousands of miles away from Satbury. It takes a few

    “Alright, alright, I won’t say any more.”Seeing her daughter’s exasperated expression, Mrs. Lafayette chuckled and focused on applying her makeup with extra care.Once she was done, she examined her handiwork with satisfaction and praised, “My daughter is already so beautiful that with a touch of makeup, you look absolutely divine.”“Mom, you should say I look divine without makeup. If you only say that after I’ve put on makeup, doesn’t that imply my beauty depends on it?”Rosalie studied her reflection. Her mother’s makeup skills were slightly better than hers, though it was no surprise, given her mother’s elegance and poise that had been honed for a lifetime.“My daughter is stunning with or without makeup, enough to charm a truckload of men.”Mrs. Lafayette then asked, “Which set of jewelry are you wearing tonight?”“Something simple. I don’t like anything too flashy. Honestly, I’m already this gorgeous, so jewelry or not, I’ll still look amazing. My elegance is innate; I do

    “Ugh, I wish I could just wear a suit like usual. It would be so much easier.“Evening gowns always make me feel uncomfortable.”“Nonsense! It’s not like this is your first time wearing one. You look good in anything. Just go with this one. It’s gorgeous. Go change, and let me see how it looks.”Under her mother’s insistence, Rosalie had no choice but to take the white evening gown into the bathroom to change.A moment later, she emerged and asked, “Mom, how do I look?”“Beautiful, absolutely beautiful! Come, sit here. Let me do your makeup. Just a light touch to make you even more stunning. You’ll be the most beautiful woman there tonight.”Mrs. Lafayette was an elegant and dignified woman. Truthfully, she had never been entirely satisfied with her daughter’s usual level of makeup. It was always too understated, almost like she was not wearing any at all.However, her daughter was grown now, and unless Rosalie specifically asked for her opinion, she would not interfere.Rosali

    It was not easy to find a man her daughter was even slightly satisfied with and was willing to develop a relationship with. They could not afford to scare Christian away.Christian asked, “Mrs. Lafayette, what did you say?”Mrs. Lafayette grew even more embarrassed, her voice lowering slightly. “R-Rosalie really likes to hit on handsome men when she’s drunk.”“But s-she rarely gets drunk! As long as you keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn’t overdo it, it’ll be fine.”In her twenty-nine years of life, Rosalie had only been drunk twice.Both times, she had shamelessly flirted with some handsome men and scared them off.Once she had sobered up, she could not remember a thing.If there were no handsome men around to hit on, she would even turn her attention to her best girlfriends.Christian was speechless for a moment before he said, “...I really can’t imagine Rosalie flirting with men when she’s drunk.”Actually, he kind of wanted to see what Rosalie was like when intoxic

    Christian sat down across from the couple.He was one year older than Rosalie, making him thirty this year.As his family’s only son, both his grandparents and parents were deeply concerned about his still being single. The pressure to settle down was intense.They had arranged countless blind dates for him, so many that it seemed almost every wealthy young lady in Solville had been set up with him at least once.His work had, however, kept him extremely busy. As the sole heir, he had to shoulder the responsibilities of the family business with no one to share the burden, leaving him little time for romance.Though he had been on countless blind dates, it was not that he had not met anyone he liked, or that no one had taken an interest in him. The problem was his lack of time to accompany them. After one or two meals together, his dates would simply fade away without further contact.His blind date with Rosalie had been three months ago.To be honest, after so many meetings, Ros

    “Here, try these clothes on and see if they fit. I remember your size, but I’m not sure if you’ve gained or lost weight recently.”Damian glanced at the size tags and said, “I make time to exercise every day. There’s no way I’d let myself get fat. I’m still the same size.”He held up the clothes against himself and nodded. “They’ll definitely fit.“You don’t have to buy me clothes anymore. My wardrobe is already overflowing.”Rosalie replied, “I don’t have a boyfriend, and when I saw Serenity shopping for clothes, I figured I’d grab a few for you too. Once I do have a boyfriend, I’ll probably forget all about you.”“So you’re the type to prioritize romance over family, huh? Fine, then I’ll take advantage of you while you’re still single and stock up on clothes from you before I lose the chance.”“I’m just kidding. You’re my brother. That’s a bond for life. A husband might not even stick around forever. Plenty of people get divorced after a few years when the love fades.”In Rosa

    If River’s family background turned out to be decent, Damian would not mind giving things a little push, and maybe turn those two sworn rivals into a couple.He had always admired River.As for his sister being willing to befriend Serenity, wife to River’s cousin, Damian did not comment further.Through Serenity, he could also get a better understanding of River’s family. Of course, he would not take everything at face value. He would still have to investigate on his own.After all, Serenity was part of River’s family herself. Naturally, she would be biased in his favor and would likely paint him in the best light.“Mm, I’ll message him tomorrow and see if he’s free that night.”Rosalie still had Mr. Jacques in her contacts.Their relationship just had not gone anywhere, so they rarely chatted. Neither of them had much free time for idle conversation.She was busy, and so was Mr. Jacques, constantly traveling for work and swamped with responsibilities.“If you and Mr. Jacques
