Chapter 443 My Great Grandson

When Cassandra was younger, she harbored romantic feelings for Nathaniel and often kept track of his whereabouts. At one point, she even considered marrying him. But after he lost his sight, she chose Nicholas instead.

After all, Nicholas was now more accomplished than Nathaniel, and she no longer cared about her previous feelings. She was the first to speak. “Nathaniel, Cecilia, cheers.”

To accommodate Nathaniel, the wine glass was handed directly to him so he could easily reach it.

However, Nathaniel didn’t take the glass. Instead, he grabbed Cecilia’s hand tightly.

“My wife and I don’t drink. Go toast the others.”

Cassandra froze for a moment and glanced at Nicholas.

Nicholas picked up the glass and handed it to Cassandra. “They don’t drink, but we can.”

“Okay,” Cassandra agreed and drank the wine.

Originally, they were only supposed to toast the closest people, but Nicholas ended up toasting everyone present.

Whatever wine Cassandra couldn’t finish, Nicholas drank on her behalf.

At the later part of the engagement party, Cecilia finally saw Jonathan arrive.

Jonathan’s face was flushed red. It was clear that Roland had someone put makeup on him. He was dressed in an expensive little suit.

Most notably, his left hand was held by Roland, while his right hand was held by George.

Jonathan nearly stole the spotlight from the main couple of the engagement, but luckily, he arrived near the end of the event.

The party was full of prominent guests, including Niel. When he saw George holding a child’s hand, he was curious.

“Old Mr. Sinclair, whose child is that?” Niel asked.

George beamed with pride. “This is Zach’s son, my great–grandson.”

Hearing this, Niel quickly asked someone to fetch his reading glasses.

After putting them on, his eyes lit up. “This boy… Why does he look so much like Nicholas and Nathaniel when they were young?”

Niel’s remark made Cecilia’s heart race with panic.

Thankfully, Roland stepped in. “Old Mr. Rainsworth, don’t fight me for a grandson. This boy was

born to my daughter Vivian. She doesn’t know Mr. Rainsworth.”

Niel realized he must have been mistaken. After all, people could look alike.

“Hahaha, the boy is so well–behaved. I just like him so much.”

George quickly stepped in protectively. “Don’t even think about stealing my great–grandson.”

The combined age of the three was over two hundred years, yet they behaved like children.

Meanwhile, Jonathan, too young to understand what was going on, had already been worn out from the day’s events.

From a distance, Cecilia let out a sigh of relief. Seeing how much Roland and George doted on Jonathan genuinely made her happy.

Elena had been quietly observing Jonathan as well. According to her investigation, Vivian had never given birth to a child, so how was jonathan suddenly Zachary and Vivian’s son?

She couldn’t accept it.

Later, George and Roland publicly announced that after the New Year, they would arrange an engagement party for Zachary and Vivian.

The crowd burst into enthusiastic applause, seemingly oblivious to the sour expressions on the faces of both Zachary and Vivian.

The engagement party continued until the afternoon.

Nicholas had drunk a lot. Jocelyn, who was standing nearby, looked on with concern. “Mr. Nicholas, don’t drink too much. Your body can’t handle it.”

Nicholas had always been particular about his health, but ever since returning to Tudela, he had. grown increasingly careless with his well–being.

It pained Jocelyn to see him like this.

“It’s fine. Today is an exception,” Nicholas reassured her gently.

Jocelyn nodded, wanting to say more, but before she could, a hand grabbed her from behind.

“Jocelyn, go entertain the guests. I’ll take Nicholas upstairs to rest. Cassandra said, stepping forward in her high heels to support the drunken Nicholas.

The two were already engaged, and Cassandra was now Nicholas‘ future wife. Jocelyn had not choice but to step aside.

Cassandra called over a few servants to help her escort Nicholas back to his room. Her heart pounded with excitement.
