Chapter 1104

Chapter 1104 I Do Not Want You To Have Any Regrets Neera felt that this gift was somewhat hot to handle.

“Mmm… Shane, this is our first meeting and you’re giving such a lavish gift… It’s a bit too much…”

Shane laughed lightly, not particularly bothered.

“I can tell that Uncle Chad sees you as his daughter. In that case, you’re my sister. We’re all family here, there’s no need for formalities.”

Neera hesitated for a moment while glancing at Chad.

Seeing him nod with a smile, she didn’t refuse any further.

“Alright, I’ll accept it then. Thanks for your sweet thought, Shane.”

After she finished speaking, she lowered her gaze and gently patted one of the triplet’s head, signaling them to express their thanks as well.

The three of them were very well-behaved. Their voices were soft and childlike as they said, “Thank you, Uncle Shane. We will cherish it.”

Shane smiled warmly, lovingly caressing their little faces.

“I’ve heard that you’re all smart kids. When I have time in the future, I’ll come play with you…”

The group was chatting away merrily when suddenly, Baxter walked over.

“Chad, there are some things we should take this opportunity to discuss now.”

Chad knew exactly what he was going to say, so he rejected it without a second thought.

“Uncle Baxter, today is Adriana’s birthday, so she is the priority. Whatever matters there are, let’s discuss them after the celebration.”

He finished talking, but the smile still lingered on his lips, and his eyes slightly squinted.

“I’m in a good mood today, and I hope nothing unpleasant happens. Uncle Baxter knows my temperament well, so you wouldn’t dampen my spirits, would you?”

His words were as gentle as jade, yet they carried an unmistakable hint of warning in his tone.

Clearly, he was still upset about the ruckus Baxter had caused at Neera’s birthday banquet, when he had publicly announced Neera’s identity.

Baxter was taken aback by his words. His expression became even more unpleasant.

But he understood Chad well, knowing that if he truly upset him, things would look rather bad.

So in the end, all he could do was snort coldly and turn to leave for somewhere else.

Neera was relieved to see that Baxter hadn’t caused any commotion.

Tonight was Auntie’s birthday feast, as well as Chad’s proposal ceremony. She didn’t want anyone to ruin such a memorable day.

Next, the scene continued with the guests coming forward to offer their congratulations and engage in friendly conversation.”

Halfway through the banquet, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed a bit.

Adriana looked up, and asked in confusion, “What’s going on? Is there a power outage?”

Chad smiled faintly, gently said to her, “Wait for me.

After he finished speaking, he entrusted the puzzled Adriana to Neera, then stepped onto the stage.

Soon, several spotlights were shining on him.

He held the microphone in his hand, delivering his speech with refined eloquence.

“Today is the birthday of my fiancée, Adriana. I am deeply grateful to everyone for honoring me with your presence at this birthday feast, and for sending your sincerest blessings to my fiancée. Once again, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks. And to my fiancée, I want to wish you, Happy Birthday.”

Below the stage, Adriana looked at him with a hint of surprise, feeling an indescribable joy.

Although she had guessed that this man would probably throw a grand birthday celebration for her, she never expected that he would present her with birthday wishes in front of everyone.

After all, they were middle-aged now, and no longer possessed the fervor of the young.

So when she saw him like this, it was as if she had returned to the time when they first fell in love. For a moment, she felt a touch of melancholy.

And there was something even more unexpected.

Chad gazed intently at Adriana who was standing below the stage, then once again spoke into the microphone, “Today, I’ve invited you all here for another reason. I want you all to bear witness to an important event.”

Knowing the inside story, Neera was a bit excited at this moment, her gaze constantly wandering between Chad and Adriana, not wanting to miss any detail of this important moment.

The triplets huddled together with their eyes sparkling brightly. It was clear that they were very excited.

At this moment, Avery leaned in, looking at Neera’s expression and asked curiously, “Why are you making that face? It’s as if you knew some insider information?”

Neera made a hush gesture at him, her eyes curving in amusement as she lowered her voice and said, “You’ll see in a moment.”

Adriana didn’t notice their subtle action as her entire focus was on the stage.

Chad pulled out a diamond ring that he had prepared in advance from his pocket and held it up towards Adriana before the watchful eyes of everyone present.

Under the light, the tenderness in his eyes was clearly visible. It was lingering and affectionate, all for that one person beneath the stage.

“Adriana, we’ve missed most of our lives already. It’s truly not easy now that we have the chance to be together again.”

“Even though you’ve already agreed to marry me, I still want to give you a formal proposal. I don’t want there to be any regrets in your life, our love, or our marriage. So, will you marry me?”
