When Nola and Elvis arrived at Skylark Restaurant, the Grayson family had just arrived. As soon as they sat down in the box, Myles was brought over by the waiter.
Among the four best boxes in Skylark Restaurant, they booked one of them today. Myles had been here a few times for the work parties before, but he had never been to such a deluxe box.
Myles greeted and the Grayson family politely asked him to sit down.
The Grayson family’s attitude gave Myles more courage. He was worried the Grayson family might give him a cold shoulder as he had a poor relationship with Nola in the past. Now it seemed that he was overthinking.
“We should have this meal long ago. Evelyn and 1 just came back from abroad not long ago, and my mother is not in good health, so it has been delayed. Hope you won’t take it to heart!”
“How could it be? Your family group is a big business and has a lot to do. I totally understand.” The top–notch tea was overflowing with a delicate fragrance. Myles savored it as if he was tasting the life of rich people.
Myles said with a smile, “Actually, I don’t know why Nola is with Mr. Grayson, and she didn’t tell me. She always hides everything in her heart and doesn’t talk too much with me. Her mother is weak. I’m grateful that Mr. Grayson doesn’t mind
us.”
“Our family has everything. We only hope Elvis can find a girl he likes and live with her forever. As they have obtained their marriage license, we’re inviting you over to talk about the details of the wedding.”
Hearing this, Myles could hardly hold back the excitement in his heart. This was what he was waiting for when he came today.
“Sure, I also hope they’ll live with each other happily.”
Old Mrs. Grayson put down her teacup and said, “I like Nola very much. I’m sure our family will treat her well. There is no rush about the wedding, and Nola hopes her mother can attend the wedding.”
“Her mother?” Myles frowned and didn’t know why they invited a lunatic to attend the wedding.
“Right, it will be good to have both her parents at the wedding. The news from abroad said the test result was not bad. Grace is receiving treatment right now. She should be able to recover in half a year. At that time, Grace must be very proud to see Nola married into our family.”
“Really? Grandma!” Nola was surprised.
Elvis nodded. He had just learned the news not long ago, and he hadn’t had time to tell Nola.
“That will be awesome! Thank you.”
“Silly girl. We’re a family. This is what we should do. Why are you being so polite?”
Myles had never expected Grace might recover one day. He sat there with a dazed expression and didn’t come back to his senses until Brandon called him for a long while.
After the waiter served the food, everyone chatted while eating. Nola didn’t have to worry about anything and just ate the food with lowering her head. Seeing the Grayson family taking good care of Nola, Myles thought they would definitely give Nola some valuable gifts.
The dishes in Skylark Restaurant were tasty. Old Mrs. Grayson got to the point when they had almost finished the meal.
“As for the wedding, it depends on Nola and Elvis. Nola can make a choice about the details. As long as you like, everything will be done according to your requests.”

Nola was a little dazed. She just accepted Elvis, which was followed by the wedding quickly. Nola felt all of this went too fast, which was completely different from the married life she imagined.
“Jewelry and wedding rings are necessary. We will prepare and customize them according to the wedding style chosen by Nola. And we decide to give you 1.5 million dollars as the engagement gift to buy whatever you want,
As old Mrs. Grayson was in good health, everything in the family was decided by her.
This generous engagement gift to Nola made Myles‘ eyes ablaze with excitement. This amount was enough to make Myles thrilled. With so much money, he would have nothing to worry about.
Besides, this was just for the wedding. In the future, the benefits brought by the Grayson family would be a steady flow.
“In addition, we have three properties in the downtown and suburbs prepared for Nola. They are all newly built apartments. The scenery around is good, and they are surrounded by amenities.”
Nola was already dumbfounded. She thought the engagement gift was just money.
The money, jewelry, three properties, and eight stores were all prepared at the request of old Mrs. Grayson.

As soon as old Mrs. Grayson finished speaking, Brandon took out an envelope and said, “I know maybe you don’t need this since you’re marrying Elvis, but I still prepared it for you, just in case you need it. Take this car. If you ever find another one you like, we’ll buy it for you.”
Nola saw two BMW car keys
the envelope.
“This is the keys to our spare cars. Elvis‘ car might be a bit difficult to drive, so we specially selected these two cars for you. The X5 is safer to drive. Remember to pick
up the car tomorrow.”
“Mr. and Mrs. Grayson, these things…”
Myles felt like he was dreaming. He knew the Grayson family was generous. Now, the Grant family was counting on Nola to be prosperous.
Anything given by the Grayson family was worth a lot while their tone sounded like they didn’t care about this big expense.
“Well… That’s very generous of you.” Myles also thought if he should prepare some gifts for Nola as the Grayson family was so generous, lest they thought Myles was stingy.
“Nola deserves it. The engagement gifts including money, properties, and stores have been under Nola’s name. Nola, this card is for your name. This is a gift from me. Keep it well.”
While Myles was happy, he felt something was wrong after hearing this.
“These engagement gifts have been under Nola’s name?”
“Yes! These are the engagement gifts we prepared for Nola. Is there anything wrong?”
Myles was at a loss. He didn’t expect those gifts had been under Nola’s name, which meant it would be hard for him to get those from Nola.
All these things had been given to Nola. In this way he couldn’t get everything form Nola while he still had to prepare his gifts to Nola.
“Wait! Why did you put those things under Nola’s name so soon? Are you thinking I’ll snatch them from her?”
Myles felt upset since he thought he could have a chance to get something from Nola.
Myles thought the Grayson family was going through the motions. He didn’t even have a chance to get those gifts.

Brandon said confidently, “This is our family rule. Don’t worry. These gifts will be notarized and become Nola’s private property. Our family can afford these things.”
“But you’re obviously not trusting me.”
