Please accept your invitation.” “The Presgrave Family's invitation?” Connor exclaimed with excitement as he accepted the invitation. “Yes. It's the wedding invitation of Young Master Presgrave and Miss Reiss. We look forward to seeing you there. I'll be off now.” After seeing the staff away, Connor sat excitedly on the couch and looked through the invitation.
