Chapter 196 An Even Better Day, Sean Proposing to Cecelia
“Grandma!”
“Grandpa!”
Phyllis was in Sean’s arms, and when she saw Marcia and Matthew, she immediately exclaimed excitedly, “Look! Look!”
“Daddy! My daddy is back!”
Marcia pushed Matthew over, glanced at Sean with complex emotions, and then nodded, “It’s good that you’re back… It’s good…”
“Dad, Mom.”
Sean called out to Marcia and Matthew.
Marcia’s eyes reddened, as if she had just cried.
Moreover!
Her gaze at Sean was strange, and Sean couldn’t help but feel a slight stir in his heart. He then looked at Gemma, who was behind them. Gemma and Dean came directly to Sean’s side, pulling Sean’s arm and examining him up and down. When they finally confirmed that Sean was unharmed, they almost sobbed and said, “Sean, you’re still alive! It’s so good!”
“These days, we’ve been worried about you!”
Then, Gemma took Cecelia’s hand and explained, “I’ve already told your dad and mom about what happened five years ago…”
So that was the case!
Sean became somewhat nervous and apologized to Marcia and Matthew with a guilty face, “Dad, Mom, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to…”
“Don’t say anymore.”
Tears streamed down Marcia’s cheeks. She waved her hand, interrupting Sean’s words, and shook her head, “I didn’t want you and Cecelia to be together before because I didn’t know who you really were, and I was worried you would hurt Cecelia and Phyllis.”
“Now, I know.”
“You’re just a pitiful child, like Cecelia. What happened five years ago wasn’t your fault. Both you and Cecelia were victims, so I don’t blame you.”
“I just hope that in the future, you can be a good husband, a good father, and give them a home…”
As a mother, as a grandmother, Marcia had always been worried about Cecelia and Phyllis!
And she wasn’t an unreasonable person!
For five years, although Cecelia never mentioned it, she always had what happened five years ago weighing on her heart. She had always wanted to find out the truth and Phyllis’s father!
What happened back then had always been an insurmountable obstacle in Cecelia’s heart!
For five whole years, no matter how much psychological pressure she carried, no matter how much she was ridiculed, she never thought of just marrying a random man to give Phyllis a complete family!
Now!
Sean had appeared!
She had also learned the truth about what happened five years ago!
As it turned out, Sean was the man Cecelia had been searching for, Phyllis’s father. Moreover, it was obvious that Cecelia had developed genuine feelings for Sean and had truly fallen in love with him!
All of this ultimately gave her the best resolution!
After all the things that had happened, what could Marcia say?
She could only bless her daughter!
“Mom!”
“Dad!”
Sean held Phyllis in his arms and held Cecelia’s hand, speaking with utmost sincerity, “Please rest assured, I promise you that from now on, as long as I’m alive, no one can hurt Cecelia and Phyllis!”
“What are you talking about, son,” said Gemma in a hurry, “Of course you’ll be alive.”
Although it was just a brief encounter, the atmosphere was somewhat strange due to its special timing and everyone just finding out the truth. It was as if it was a wedding, with parents handing over their daughter to their son-in-law.
Not until they heard the sound of police sirens…
Luke, after dealing with the matters of the Moore Group, also hurried over. With so many big shots from all over the country gathering at Sanchez Villa, he certainly wasn’t foolish enough to waste such an opportunity to get close to them.
As he got out of the car, Luke went straight to Sean and said with a smile, “Since you’re all here, I think I can have a drink with you all, right, Mr. Mason?”
“It’s my honor,” Sean nodded with a smile, “We’re relying on Mr. Young to handle the matters of the Moore Group.”
“Please don’t say that, Mr. Mason. It’s our job. Whenever you need me, just let me know, Mr. Mason, and I’d be happy to help.”
In front of the Bloody Wolf members, Luke deliberately acted very close to Sean.
At this time, a bodyguard of the Sanchez family came over and said, “Mr. Mason.”
“Ladies and gentlemen.”
“The luncheon has been ready. My master asked me to come over and invite everyone to lunch.”
So, everyone followed the bodyguard to the main hall.
The main hall of the villa was enormous!
It was like a five-star hotel, with hundreds of square meters, and it was decorated very luxuriously, the entire hall sparkling!
The banquet was ready!
Owen had put a lot of thought into this hundred-person banquet. He arranged the seating order and columns based on the relationships of the attendees with Sean.
The twenty-one members of the Bloody Wolf Group sat in the first row on the left and the first row on the right, while their families sat behind them.
Sean and Cecelia sat in the middle of these seats, with Phyllis sitting on Sean’s lap, Owen and Luke sitting next to Sean, and Gemma’s family and Marcia’s family on either side of them because they were Sean and Cecelia’s relatives.
The two Complete Stage old men also sat around them, as a sign of Sanchez’s respect for them.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Once everyone was seated, the huge hall was immediately filled with people and joyful laughter.
“Quiet!”
“Quiet!”
At first, they all thought it was just an ordinary celebration banquet, but Owen saw a good opportunity now. He suddenly looked at Sean and Cecelia with a complex smile, then stood up and said loudly, “I have a very important announcement!”
The next moment, the hall quickly fell silent, and they could almost hear everyone’s heartbeat.
Everyone looked at Owen, and Sean and Cecelia were puzzled too. What could it be about?
Why didn’t we know?
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Owen continued, “Mr. Mason and Miss Moore are obviously in love, and they make such a great match, and they have a lively and adorable daughter…”
“However, their engagement banquet before was not perfect due to some special reasons.”
“So!”
“Since we have this rare opportunity today, and you are all family and friends of Mr. Mason and Miss Moore, why don’t we make today an even better day and hold another engagement banquet for them!”
“We will have Mr. Mason propose to Miss Moore in front of all their family and friends. What do you think?”
At that, the crowd erupted with wild applause!
