With that thought, he felt a lot better!

A week later, the Mendez family threw a birthday party for Luis‘ grandfather.

Luis attended with Holley, hoping his family would not put Holley in an awkward position in front of the guests... Still, he was not ready to introduce Holley as his fiancee but rather just as a friend.

In the past, he had no concerns about attending a party or other social events because Elva would always dress up like a queen.

However, Holley was unfamiliar with these types of occasions.

From all aspects, Holley had a lot of preparing to do. In Cassidy's opinion, Holley needed a completely shakeover. Otherwise, it was unlikely Luis’ family would warm up to her.

There was a popular coffee shop downstairs the high-end salon.

When Luis and Holley visited the salon, they unexpectedly ran into Elva in the cafe... dressed in a black velvet gown, complemented by a set of pearl jewelry. Her elegantly exposed collarbone outshined even the pearls.

She was sitting with her parents, and facing them were the Finch family members.

Elva was there meeting the Finch family's second son, Kyler Finch, a well-regarded accountant across the country, who looked quite respectable.

It was clear that both their parents were pleased with this match.

Elva was quite attractive and had been acquainted with the Finch family for many years. Meanwhile, Kyler seemed smitten with her. No sooner had they taken their seats than he began gazing intently at Elva, not taking his eyes off her for a moment.

Noticing this, Mrs. Finch couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle to herself. She was pleased that Kyler, who was notoriously selective, seemed to have taken a liking to a girl at last.

So she was looking forward to it!

Maybe Luis had been standing silently for too long because Waylen turned to him and casually said, “What a small world, Luis! Having a date with your new girlfriend?"

The situation felt uncomfortable.

Luis tried to deny it, but when Waylen looked behind him and Holley stepped forward to stand next to him, holding his hand, he had to admit their relationship.

Luis managed a smile and responded, "Yes, Mr. Fowler!"

Holley was surprised to see Waylen and thought he looked handsome despite his age. She even considered that he might have been more handsome than Luis in his youth, leading her to impulsively greet him after Luis did.

However, upon seeing Elva, she realized they were all family.
