Wyatt listened silently, that frightening and life-threatening gunfight resurfacing in his mind.

Amelia and Celeste were stunned.
Lance was usually playful and joked around with Wyatt. It was the first tthey had seen him so mad.
It was evident how much he wanted this marriage alliance to ctrue, so much so that he risked his thirty-year friendship with Wyatt.
"Dad! Take care of yourself and don't get too worked up!" The two Iverson sons stood up at the stime, but Charles needed to rely on his crutches, causing him to be a step behind Christopher.
Christopher had walked to his father, lightly patting Lance's heaving back, and comforted, "Dad, calm down. You have been good friends with Uncle Wyatt for decades.

Wyatt's brows furrowed deeply, and he slowly got up, walking to Lance. "I've always fancied Christopher to becmy son-in-law, and Khoped familias could beccloser. But you've seen it at the horse racing event. The whole world saw Bella and Justin's relationship; it's as good as exposed. If we talk about marriage now, it would not be good for your Iverson Group and your son's image!” .
