“Emma also runs her own clothing business,” Alana continued. “At the same time, she works as a corporate trainer, although her future in that role is uncertain. Finding a daughter–in–law like her is truly a blessing!”

“Based on what you’re saying,” Michelle hesitated. “Emma sounds remarkable. How did she end up with Albus?”

“Mrs. Stellar!” Sophia took over the conversation. “According to Albus, Emmeline’s parents were aware of our prosperity and the strong connection we share. They felt comfortable entrusting Emma to us and arranged the match.”

“I believe that,” Michelle said proudly. “Maxwell and Kimberly are honest people from Altney Steel. The Zellers know them very well.”

“Yes,” Alana said. “That’s why my mother–in–law wants to make this happy event happen quickly!”

“Alright!” Michelle clapped Alana’s hand and said, “Since Maxwell’s family has already visited, and considering your status as Abel’s wife, I will talk to Albus. We can discuss a suitable date for the engagement.”

“That would be great,” Alana said quickly. “Emma has made mistakes in the past, so I hope you can forgive her.”

Michelle nodded. “It’s all in the past. Adults shouldn’t hold grudges against children.”

Sophia and Alana exchanged glances and smiled at each other.

Unbeknownst to each other, the three women harbored their hidden agendas.

The following morning, Michelle and Albus arrived at Altney Steel Central Hospital bearing thoughtful gifts for Maxwell. Upon entering the hospital room, they found only Kimberly and a nurse present, as Abel and Emmeline had already returned to Altney.

Maxwell, still hooked up to intravenous fluids, managed a polite nod from his hospital bed upon seeing Michelle.

She couldn’t help but engage in small talk, exchanging pleasantries and shedding a few tears as she expressed her contemplations on the brevity and challenges of life.

After a few rounds of conversation, they discussed the topic of Emmeline and Albus‘ wedding.

Kimberly heard Michelle praising her daughter and couldn’t help but feel overjoyed, her heart filled with warmth.

“But there’s something…” Michelle stopped talking at a crucial moment.

“What is it?” Kimberly’s heart sank. “Michelle, please just say it.”

Michelle sighed and pretended to choke up, “Kimberly, you know, Allen was an honest and upright man, but he didn’t leave much behind for the children. Since his passing, I’ve been raising three kids without any significant savings. I–I’m afraid that if our two children decide to get engaged, I won’t be able to provide a decent gift.”
