NovelBookChapter 318 "Sis, congrats! You finally got what you wanted Everything was going according to plan, Miranda raised her glass to Xanthea with a triumphant smile on her face. Xanthea returned her gesture with a smile; she was indeed about to get everything she wished for. Everyone was enthusiastically discussing the proposal, except for Oliver, who remained silent.

Xanthea raised an eyebrow, "?” "Onion." As soon as the nOrion was mentioned, Xanthea's pupils instantly dilated.
She had felt that her uncle's emotions were a bit today, and here he was, ready to ruin things! "Ohon?" Before he could finish, she quickly interrupted him, "Do you want to invite him? Wouldn't that be inappropriate? He's so busy." What? Invite him? Was she out of her mind? Did she want him to cand ruin the proposal scene? His niece must have been spoiled by the family and didn't know the severity of the situation or what kind of person Orion really was. Back then, when The Lockwood Group was in turmoil, he had only been in power for a year, before he eliminated the old faction, stabilized the situation, and becthe youngest leader of the Twin Towers. He wouldn't hesitate to act against his closest relatives and friends, let alone a woman who betrayed him.
Xan?" "Uncle! There's something in your hair, it looks like a moth!" "What?" Oliver frowned, and saw her running over nervously. While p pretending to flick something from his hair, st she whispered in his ear, After listening, Oliver looked shocked.

Christopher chimed in, "Oliver, when did you get so close with Mr. Lockwood?" Oliver looked at Xanthea with a complicated expression and swallowed his words, "Just sbusiness dealings." Susanna added, "Then it's better not to invite him. The Lockwood Group is prestigious, and Mr. Lockwood, being the CEO, is incredibly influential. Not only is his tprecious, but if he doesn't come, people might mock us for trying to cling to someone out of our league. After all, a proposal is a private matter." Oliver nodded, "Understood." Hearing this, Xanthea felt relieved.
She knew that even if her uncle didn't believe in her, he wouldn't distrust Orion-who was his niece, after all? "I don't agree with inviting Orion, either!" Samuel spoke up, and Xanthea looked at him in surprise, "Why's that?"
It was one thing for others to disagree, byt Orion had been nothing but generous to him, gifting him clubs and perfume, and he still objected! Wouldn't that be just heartbreaking? Samuel revealed a mischievous smile, "He's too handsome, he'll steal all the attention!" Xanthea rolled her eyes at him, "You're not the one proposing what are you afraid of?" Samuel ruffled her hair, this little confused girl didn't even know Orion liked her
The atmosphere was warm and jovial, filled with laughter ando m conversation, until it was almost over when Xanthea suddenly stood up Chapter 318 and raised her glass.
Everyone expected a toast to everyone present, but instead, m Xanthea only looked at Matthew and Miranda, "Here's to a happy day, I toast to Matt and Mirry." Samuel was confused, "Xan, what do you mean? You only toast to them? What about Mom, Dad, Uncle, Ethan, and me?"
