He turned around, pressed Summer Sutton into his arms, held her small face, and leaned down to give her a deep kiss.
His kiss was overbearing and intense.
He was openly declaring Summer Sutton’s identity to everyone.
Summer Sutton hadn’t come to her senses yet when a sudden icy touch hit her fingertips.
Looking down, she saw a diamond ring on her hand.
The delicate band was inlaid with a small white diamond, not ostentatious, and the design was simple, yet it was the most appealing. Latest content published on novel_fіre.net
Adrian Walyon put one on her finger and then wore an identical one on his own.
"Our engagement rings, wear them well. Until the wedding rings replace them, you’re not allowed to take them off." He warned in advance, fearing she’d turn around and take it off.
At an engagement banquet , Old Master Walyon had prepared a betrothal gift for tonight.
He called Summer Sutton over to his side and had a servant hand her a jewelry box.
"Keep this, it was prepared by Adrian’s grandmother for her granddaughter-in-law before she passed away."
He gave Summer Sutton a set of emerald jewelry, including a necklace, earrings, ring, and bracelet, all were there.
High-quality emeralds are valuable, and ordinary families consider giving even one piece a very generous gift.
The Walyon Family went all out, gifting an entire set.
This set of jewelry could be considered heirloom, symbolizing the prestige of the Walyon’s eldest grandson’s wife.
Summer Sutton had no intention of marrying Adrian Walyon and didn’t want to embarrass him in front of so many people tonight; it was merely to avoid trouble with him later on.
Summer Sutton just looked on without any intention of accepting it.
Unexpectedly, Adrian Walyon reached out with his long arm and helped her accept it.
"On behalf of Summer, I thank you, Grandpa." Grabbing Summer Sutton’s hand, Adrian Walyon led her upstairs to his room...
Gina Sutton witnessed the whole scene from the beginning, ran out of the Walyon Family’s gates crying with reddened eyes.
Betty Chapman, worried for her daughter, also ran out.
Gina Sutton returned to her car, crying heartbreakingly.
"Mom, why is it ? How did things turn out this way? Where did Summer Sutton come from? What tricks did she use to capture Adrian Walyon’s attention?"
"Sob... How am I inferior to her? Summer Sutton has nothing backing her up, while I at least have our family as a support."
"From childhood to adulthood, why do all the good things happen to her? At school, many people liked her. At home, Grandpa favored her. Now even after Grandpa is gone, he’s arranged such a great marriage for her. Why does Summer Sutton deserve so much?"
"Had I known she’d be such a troublemaker, why didn’t she die in a car accident with her father back then? Waaa..."
"Mom, what should I do? What should our family do?"
She cried out pitifully, and at this moment, her hatred for Summer Sutton ran deep.
Before coming here tonight, she had dressed herself up beautifully, expecting that all eyes would be drawn to her during this evening.
Just before stepping into this banquet, she was proud like a princess, but as she walked out, she was as dejected as a defeated rooster.
Everyone who attended tonight believed she was the main character due to recent news of the engagement between the Sutton and Walyon families.
Everyone thought she was secured to marry into the Walyon Family, and before the banquet started, several people even proactively approached William Sutton with talks of future business collaboration.
