"No! I won't watch the live broadcast." Eloise turned finally, looking at her mother.
She emphasized, "I must attend the wedding personally. I'll send my blessings to them and make Finnley unable to forget me all his life."
"Is that the only way?" Madeline felt it was full of sorrow.
"Mom, I have no other choice." Eloise's lips trembled slightly. "If I cannot be his bride, I'll be his bridesmaid."
Her words made Madeline almost burst into tears.
"Anyway, I must appear at his wedding. That's my biggest wish in my life," Eloise stubbornly emphasized in a weak tone.
As her mother, Madeline could understand how she felt. However, she couldn't do anything.
Even the air was full of sorrow in the last days of Eloise's life. All the Calders were too anxious to take care of their company.
The living room, Saunders' Villa, Arkpool City.
The coffee table was covered by gift boxes and bags from the Russell family, all precious things that could hardly be found in the market.
"Mayor Saunders, Mrs. Saunders, this is one betrothal gift for Mya. 200 million dollars." Albert passed a bank card to the Saunders couple generously.
Then he picked up a file. "I'll also transfer 20% of my company's shares to Mya. I've signed it."
While everyone else was shocked, Albert added with a bright smile. "Please do accept them."
Clarence and Shirley exchanged a glance, both shocked about the amount of money and the share transfer.
"Mrs. Russell..." Mya felt flattered. "We can do things according to tradition. You also need funds to run the company. 200 million dollars is too much."
"It's probably too much for another girl," Albert beamed at her and said honestly, "But it's not for you."
Violet echoed, "Mya, your father is a mayor. You deserve the betrothal gifts. We're watched by countless reporters."
