Crestfall, Lancaster Family.
Today the Lancaster Family has guests.
Justin Leighton brought Heidi Leighton to visit Old Master Lancaster and Old Madam Lancaster, and the group is exchanging pleasantries in the living room.
"Elder Lancaster, this is my daughter Heidi." Justin Leighton introduced while giving Heidi a look, softly saying, "Heidi, hurry up and greet them."
"Elder Lancaster, hello, I’ve always heard my father speak of your illustrious achievements, and today I finally get to meet you in person. You’re just as impressive as I imagined."
Heidi Leighton smiled faintly, subtly complimenting Old Master Lancaster, presenting herself gracefully, exuding the air of an elegant socialite.
"I don’t have any presence; I’m just an old man!"
"How could you be old? You seem just like my father, truly modest."
Heidi praised exaggeratedly, while Justin Leighton echoed alongside. Who doesn’t like hearing compliments? Though the words were slightly exaggerated, they brought a broad smile to Old Master Lancaster’s face.
Old Master Lancaster secretly assessed Heidi Leighton, then nodded in satisfaction.
Unexpectedly, Veridia had such a young lady comparable to those in Crestfall. This time, it seems he found the right woman for Julian Lancaster.
Seeing Old Master Lancaster smiling, Justin Leighton realized Heidi had gained his approval, allowing him to feel slightly relieved.
Heidi had been meticulously raised from a young age, paying attention in all aspects, aiming for a high marriage someday. Now marrying into the Lancaster Family was their fortune.
Thinking this, Justin Leighton spoke, "Elder Lancaster, regarding the matter you previously mentioned, I’ve discussed it with Heidi, she has no objections..."
He paused briefly, then continued, "When do you think would be suitable to arrange a meeting for the two children, to cultivate their relationship?"
Although Heidi had already met Julian Lancaster, now they pretend not to have met, allowing Old Master Lancaster to arrange it, making it better.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Lancaster pondered for a moment.
Now, Julian Lancaster was determined to stay involved with that woman, even declaring he’d rather give up on the Lancaster Family than divorce.
He must intervene. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
Knowing Julian Lancaster’s stubbornness, getting him to attend a meeting was nearly impossible, so he had to exploit other opportunities.
Suddenly, Old Master Lancaster thought of something.
He said, "Next week is Moira’s birthday, why don’t you both come, and I can arrange things then."
Moira is Old Master Lancaster’s affectionate name for Old Madam Lancaster, Moira Kendall. Justin Leighton had already heard about the birthday arrangements and planned to bring a grand gift.
Originally assuming meeting Julian Lancaster would be a casual meal, yet Old Master Lancaster invited them directly!
If they appear at the birthday banquet, with Old Master Lancaster’s favor, wouldn’t it be as good as announcing Heidi’s identity as the future granddaughter-in-law?
Then, as the future in-laws of the Lancaster Family, they’d attract considerable attention, leading to Prosperity!
At that moment, Justin Leighton beamed widely and said repeatedly, "Good, good, I will certainly come with a gift."
After chatting a bit more, Justin Leighton and Heidi Leighton stood and took their leave.
Once seated in the car, Justin Leighton earnestly advised, "Heidi, the Old Madam’s birthday banquet is crucial, it’s your best opportunity to impress; do not slack off, understand?"
Heidi knew the importance of the occasion and nodded repeatedly, "I understand, I will be well-prepared."
