Meanwhile, there was a celebratory atmosphere in the banquet hall. Josephine was a little upset because of Selena’s incident, so she drank more wine than usual, and she couldn’t quite stop. “Joey, this wine is nice too. Do you want some?” At the side, Luke introduced more wine to her.
Frankly speaking, Heidi was quite satisfied with Luke. Even though Luke didn’t have outstanding looks, he still came from a decent background. He had also put in a lot of effort to pursue her daughter, but her daughter declined his advances all the time..
“Luke, help yourself to more food!” “You too, Mrs. Jacobson. I’ll deliver more supplements to you later.” “It’s okay. You gave me plenty last time, and I haven’t finished them yet!” Heidi said with a smile.
While seated at the main table, Ellen was wearing a festive red dress, and she exuded the charming and tender aura of a bride. Jared took care of her with great consideration, and Willow was seated at the side as well. They were very considerate of Ellen.
Due to his unique identity, Ethan was also seated at one of the front tables. However, as he chatted with the guests, he couldn’t help but steal glances behind him. Because of the obstructed view, he could only catch sight of Josephine’s figure every now and then. “A toast to you, Mr. Quarles.”
“As to you.” Ethan clinked glasses with the person, and after he had finished the wine, an idea occurred to him. “Enjoy your meal. I’m going to talk to a friend.”
With that, Ethan took his wine glass with him as he headed straight for Josephine’s table. Meanwhile, Olivia was suggesting to Connor that they should toast at the Presgraves’ table. She wanted to get on good terms with the Presgraves so that they could help them in the future.
However, Connor wasn’t quite willing. Firstly, he felt like he had no right to meet the Presgraves. Secondly, it was a big day for Ellen, so he didn’t want to affect her mood. Thirdly, the Presgraves might not welcome theSeeing that her husband was too timid, Olivia could only give up. They were still unaware of the fact that their daughter had been chased off the island!
