Chapter 50: The Engagement Day

(Olivia’s POV)

Days passed amid the endless autumn rain before the sky finally cleared on the day of my engagement. The morning sun cast a golden glow through the windows of the

Winters Family Estate, bringing with it a sense of promise and new beginnings.

“Today is Olivia’s big day, and everyone in the Winters Family woke up early,” I heard

Agatha Turner, our loyal housekeeper, announce cheerfully as she bustled through the hallways.

Even little Grace, my half–sister who usually loved to sleep in, had risen with the sun.

She raced through the corridors in a festive red dress, her childish excitement

echoing off the walls.

“Sister’s getting engaged today! Sister’s getting engaged today!” Grace chanted,

spinning in circles until she nearly toppled over.

Inside my bedroom at the estate, a team of professional stylists busied themselves

around me. Mirrors reflected my transformation as they worked their magic, turning

me from Olivia Winters, independent lawyer, into a bride–to–be.

I wore a soft pink gown with delicate embroidery that caught the light with every

movement. My honey–brown hair had been elegantly coiled into a bun, adorned with

pearl pins that complemented my amber eyes.

“Just a touch more blush,” the makeup artist murmured, adding the finishing touches

to enhance my porcelain complexion.

Grace slipped into the room, resting her little face on the vanity. Her eyes widened with wonder as she gazed at me admiringly.

“Sister, you look so pretty today,” she breathed, her voice filled with awe.

I smiled gently and pinched her cheek. “Thank you, little one.”

Unexpectedly, Grace’s bright eyes clouded with worry. Her lower lip jutted out in a

pout that I’d come to recognize as the prelude to serious questions.

“Sister, after you get married, will you still come home often?” she asked, her voice

small and uncertain.

The innocent question caught me off guard. A bittersweet pang shot through my heart as I realized how much this child had come to care for me, despite our complicated family history.

I smiled softly, my voice tinged with tenderness. “Of course, the Rivers territory is so close, I can come back every day.”

But Grace was sharp for her age. She frowned, seeing through my gentle lie

immediately.

“Hmph, you’re lying. You don’t even come home every day now. After marrying

“Connor, wait a moment, Olivia will be down soon,” my father said, his voice warmer

than I’d heard in years.

Natalie stood beside him, also radiant with genuine happiness. Though not my biological mother, I sensed her silent prayers to my mother Sarah in heaven: Sarah, our Olivia is all grown up now and about to get engaged. You would be so proud and relieved. Connor is a good man and truly loves her. She will be happy, so don’t worry.

The stylists gave me one final inspection before declaring me ready. Taking a deep breath, I picked up my bouquet of fresh flowers and stepped toward the door.

Grace raced ahead of me, her voice ringing through the house. “Sister is coming

down!”

I descended the stairs gracefully, feeling all eyes turn toward me. Connor stood at the bottom, looking breathtakingly handsome in his tailored suit.

The moment our eyes met, time seemed to slow. His ice–blue gaze widened, drinking in every detail of my appearance–my elegant gown outlining my slender waist, the

pearl pins catching the light, my amber eyes meeting his.

An amazed smile broke across Connor’s face as he stepped forward, unable to hide

his adoration. He took my hand in his, his touch warm and secure.

“You’re beautiful,” he whispered, his voice hoarse with emotion.
