Tati could not help but grumble.Her mother was the epitome of propriety. She was always perfectly made up, with high heels on, and was impeccably dressed even at home. She would even only remove her makeup when she went to bed.Even now, waiting up late for her daughter, Margaret remained fully groomed. Her elegant, dignified image was impregnable no matter the hour.Tati often wondered if her mother ever grew tired of it. To her, it seemed exhausting.“With Isabella taking a few days off, I’ve taken over her workload. I’ve been swamped, so that’s why I’m late. Tonight’s actually considered pretty early. I might come home even later for the next few days. So, Mom, if you need anything, just call me. No need to wait up like this.”Margaret complained, “When I call you, you say you’re busy not even two sentences later. In the morning when you leave, I’m still asleep, so I don’t get to see you then either. The only chance I have of catching you is if I wait up for you at night.“To

Currently, Tati and Isabella, along with Edith and Eleanor, were supporting their family business while also developing their private ventures. This was just in case Louis and Phillip took over one day and pushed them out.No matter how close they were now, when interests were at stake, who knew if the boys would start putting their guards up against them or even scheming behind their backs?Tati believed it was better to just stay single. That way, she would remain unrestrained.Once Isabella married and had children, the elders would have grandchildren to dote on and would likely stop pestering her about marriage.However, her parents were not actually in a hurry for her to marry. On the surface, they claimed it would be her own choice and that they would let her pursue love freely. Deep down, though, she knew it was because Louis and Phillip were still too young to manage the family business.They needed her and the other girls to stay around longer to keep things running.If

Tati teased, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could be sisters-in-law on top of being pretty much sisters?”“I did think about it, but all of Austin’s older brothers are already taken. He has three younger brothers, but they’re still too young. Grandma May isn’t even in a hurry to find matches for them yet.”Tati giggled. “Isa, I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously.”“Oh, right. Last time I visited FC Manor, I met a few of the single Johnson men. Francis Johnson would actually be a great match for you. Next time I chat with Grandma May, I’ll ask her to play matchmaker for you.”“Wait, Isa, are you serious? I was only kidding! I don’t want to get married, at least not right now. Maybe when I’m thirty, and if I change my mind,” Tati exclaimed, not expecting Isabella to actually consider setting her up.Truthfully, she had no intention of marrying and would happily stay single forever. It was not like her parents or younger brothers would kick her out.With her own substantial asset

“Alright, alright, your mouth is as sweet as honey tonight. Every word you say melts right into my heart.”Isabella laughed as she gently pushed him out of the bathroom. “You should go back to your room, too. Wash up and rest. Tomorrow, we still have to visit your sister-in-law and your little nephew at the hospital.”“Good night.”“Good night.”Austin was still reluctant to leave.In the end, it was not until Isabella gave him a good-night kiss that he grudgingly returned to his room.After a relaxing bath, Isabella sat on the bed and checked the time. It was just past eleven. For her, it was still early. She rarely slept before midnight.Picking up her phone, she sent a message to Tati, asking about work.Instead of replying via text, Tati called her directly.“Isa, you’re not asleep yet?”Tati was on her way home.“It’s only eleven. I can’t sleep so early. If I went to bed now, I’d just lie there awake. You know there’s no rest for the unfortunate.”Tati giggled. “Isa, i

“We’ll likely hold the wedding within a month of registering our marriage.“Oh, right. Our hometowns are so far apart. Where should we hold the wedding? In yours or mine? Or should we have one in each city?“You’re neither the oldest nor the youngest in your generation, but marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime event. I don’t want you to feel slighted. I want the people in Wiltspoon to also know that we’re married.”His relatives and friends were all in Wiltspoon.If they only held a wedding in Satbury and not in Wiltspoon, Isabella would feel that Austin was being treated unfairly.She loved him and did not want him to suffer any grievances.After all, he had already sacrificed so much for her.Austin said, “We’ll hold banquets in both cities and invite our relatives and friends to share a toast and bless us.”Personally, he did not mind either way, but he knew his family elders would, so it was better to host celebrations in both places.Isabella hummed in agreement. “Then we’ll

Austin said, “I did have my sights set on you. In fact, you were the only thing on my mind. Ms. Tati is just Ms. Tati to me. I’ve never had any improper thoughts about her or any of the other young ladies.”Fortunately, he had always maintained a respectful distance from the other young ladies.Fortunately, Isabella had ultimately fallen in love with him.He never expected that Isabella had once considered setting him up with Tati.Thankfully, Tati had no romantic feelings for him and her admiration was purely platonic.“Later, I’ll talk to my nana and ask her to keep an eye out for a good match for Ms. Tati.”Now that he knew that his beloved had once tried to push him toward her cousin, Austin took it upon himself to prioritize Tati’s marital prospects.The sooner she was married off, the better, to avoid any awkwardness.“Nana knows many people from all over the country. She managed to find you for me in your region, so she can certainly help introduce an outstanding young t
