This was the best Darren could offer.noveldrama
Madeline was in disbelief. "What did you say?"
The Faust family's wealth was worth significantly more than the Foster family's assets when they went bankrupt.
Darren squeezed her hand. "If you still don't trust me, then there's nothing more I can do."
Plus, after his death, all of his assets would be under the names of their two children.
He wasn't foolish enough to confront his own in-laws.
Madeline was hesitant to trust him just like that. "Don't try to fool me. I'm not a three-year-old child."
She shrugged off Darren's hand.
"I'll have the lawyer draft the documents shortly," Darren said with a serious expression.
"Let's discuss it after you've drafted it."
Worried that he would continue pestering her, Madeline quickly finished her sentence and eagerly left.
In the bride's makeup room, Lucille was dressed to the nines, looking stunning. Both Cecilia and Charlotte had also put on their makeup.
One of the groomsmen was Sven.
At first, Sven was reluctant, but when he heard that Charlotte would be the bridesmaid, he reluctantly agreed.
Mason, watching the tall, imposing man, couldn't help but frown slightly. "Why can't there be a few more unattractive people around me?" he muttered under his breath.
Sven shot him a piercing look. "Are you dissatisfied?"
Mason hesitated for a moment, then smirked. "Heh, I wouldn't dare. But do me a favor-stay away from me later."
Sven raised an eyebrow, then said with a sly grin, "Later throw the bouquet toward me."
He wanted to hand it to Charlotte.
Mason gave an "OK" sign, his expression reassuring. "Don't worry, Lucy knows exactly what to do."
The wedding ceremony officially began. After all the formalities, the bride tossed her bouquet, and without hesitation, Sven caught it with ease. He immediately handed it over to Charlotte. Charlotte's eyes widened in surprise. "For me?"
"Yes," Sven replied, his tone steady. He didn't want to steal the spotlight from the newlyweds. After passing the bouquet to Charlotte, he quietly slipped away.

Charlotte, holding the large bouquet, couldn't contain er joy. A smile spread across her face as she gazed at the flowers.
Cecilia, standing beside her, said, "Congratulations."
"Boss, is he confessing his feelings for me?" Charlotte asked, still in disbelief.
"What do you think?" Cecilia replied with a knowing look. "If he wasn't trying to express his feelings for you, why else would he give you flowers and not anyone else? Why would he ask you out every day and not someone else?" Charlotte's heart fluttered.
"Boss, I hope you're right. This blockhead has finally come around," she said, smiling sweetly.
Not far away, a figure approached Sven. Lighting a cigarette, Calvin couldn't help but ask, "Sven, have you clarified your identity with her?"
A flicker of emotion flitted past Sven's gaze. "Not yet."
"I suggest you clarify things first, before pursuing anything romantic," Calvin advised, his tone serious.
Sven turned his attention to Charlotte, who was not far off, laughing and chatting with Cecilia. "All right, got it," he said, his voice distant.
Calvin hesitated for a moment before asking, "You're not planning to come back with me?"
Sven shook his head. "I'm currently Cecilia's bodyguard."
Calvin let out a small chuckle. "Heh, anyone who didn't know better would think I've been mistreating or underpaying you."
Sven didn't spare Calvin another glance, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions. As the wedding ceremony concluded, the newlyweds were escorted to their new home, and one by one, the remaining guests returned. Queenie, however, didn't rush to leave. She lingered, watching Cecilia and her group from a distance.
Cecilia didn't notice her at first, but Charlotte did. "Boss, it looks like Queenie is waiting for you."
Cecilia followed her gaze and saw Queenie offering her a gentle smile.
With no choice but to acknowledge her, she approached. "Mdm. Queenie, aren't you heading home yet?" Cecilia asked politely.
Queenie, clenching her hand, gave a soft, inviting smile "Ceci, would you like to come back with me and hang out at home for a couple of days?"
