Zoey was overjoyed and requested Mark to set off fireworks at the mansion's entrance.

The evening continued with a celebratory dinner.

The Evans family consisted of numerous members, requiring more than ten tables to accommodate everyone. Just as the dishes were being served, the butler approached and reported, “Mr. Evans, someone from Duefron has sent gifts here!"

Mark's curiosity piqued, his brows furrowing slightly.

Someone from Duefron had sent gifts here?

Mark's expression remained neutral as he inquired, "The Fowler family?"

The butler, his smile filled with unease, shifted his gaze towards

Rena.

Among the Evans family, everyone was aware of the complicated history shared by Rena and Waylen of the prominent Fowler Lineage.

After considerable contemplation, Mark issued the command for the servant representing the Fowler family to be admitted.

A grand sight unfolded before them; 18 sleek black Mercedes Benz cars and a staggering 88 lavish gifts, each thoughtfully arranged in pairs.

Mark gestured towards the opulent offerings, his curiosity piqued.

“What message do these exquisite gifts convey? Are they simple tokens to celebrate my niece's return to the family or a formal proposal of marriage?”

The servant, with a mere smile, silently affirmed the latter assumption.

Just as Zoey was about to speak, Mark leaned in and whispered in her ear, "I've encountered Waylen before, Mom. He possesses both striking looks and exceptional talents!"

Zoey found solace in Mark's words, her nod confirming her newfound reassurance.

By accepting only half of the gifts, Mark intended to convey his reservation towards this union, signaling that he had not yet given his consent.

Through this act, he aimed to showcase Rena's esteemed standing within the Evans family.

His beloved niece, Rena, held such immense popularity that even the wealthiest family from the northern region had come forward with a proposal. Mark yearned for Rena to become the rightful and esteemed lady of the Evans family.

Touched by this sentiment, Rena's heart was deeply moved.

What intentions Lay behind Waylen's actions?

Later that evening, she finally found the opportunity to reach out and call him. However, before she could make the call, Waylen beat her to it.
