Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 658: Family Does Not Keep Secrets from Each Other
Easton Holmes had planned to propose to Lily Turner on her birthday, wanting to give her an unexpected surprise, but today he unexpectedly learned about this particular situation.
His plan could only be temporarily altered, and while he was disappointed, he also felt somewhat relieved. If he had found out on that day, who knows what might have happened.
Should their wedding be delayed as well? The date he set for the wedding was just three days after her birthday.
This sudden situation completely disrupted Easton Holmes’s well-laid plans. Originally, he planned to propose on Lily’s birthday and then have their wedding three days after the proposal.
"Aiden! You saw just now how intense Lily’s reaction was. Shouldn’t we delay the recognition thing?" Callix Linton wanted to postpone the recognition, but this was just his opinion, and he couldn’t guarantee the other party would agree.
Hearing his grandfather speak, Easton Holmes also immediately voiced his thoughts, "Uncle! I agree with my grandfather’s view on this matter. After all, we’ve waited so many years, a few more days won’t hurt. What do you think?"
He turned to Aiden Taylor, whose face had softened considerably compared to before, and his tone and attitude had improved as well.
"Given the current situation, this is the best we can do."
Aiden Taylor himself understood that this was not something to rush. They needed to discuss it slowly, or else it might backfire. He couldn’t let what just happened occur again.
Hearing Aiden agree to take things slowly, both Easton Holmes and Callix Linton breathed a sigh of relief. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
"Aiden! On behalf of Lily and Easton, I want to thank you, thank..."
"Sir! You’re making me feel so embarrassed. Lily is my niece, and even though she hasn’t acknowledged me yet, I have accepted her."
Callix hadn’t finished expressing his gratitude when Aiden interrupted him, unable to listen any longer.
His words forcibly interrupted, Callix did not take offense but rather felt comforted. He patted Aiden on the back, "We’re family, we don’t need to be so formal."
Now, their two families were not only friends but also had ties through their children. It was truly a familial bond.
While the three men were discussing matters in the living room, Lily Turner was in her room sighing in distress. She had never celebrated her birthday, from childhood to now.
As a child, every time she saw other kids celebrating their birthdays with cakes and gifts, she was envious.
She had nothing, not even a "Happy Birthday," and sometimes she would even receive cold looks from her mom, or worse, scolding.
Lily remembered one year when she saw a mother buying a birthday present for her child at a mall. She asked, "Why do other kids get birthday presents and I don’t?"
Her mom responded instantly, "Mention a birthday gift again, and I’ll throw you out on the street."
After that, she never dared to mention birthday gifts to her mom, or even her birthday, fearing her mom would get angry and throw her out on the street.
Growing up, she didn’t know if it was out of habit or if she simply forgot her birthday, but Lily’s birthdays passed like any other day, without any difference.
It wasn’t until today that she realized why her mother hated her birthday so much. It turned out to be because of this.
