July Quinn took the invitation, "Alright, I’ll attend. If you all aren’t bothered, what do I have to fear?"
Nina Quinn’s smile imdiately froze: "..."
In fact, she just wanted to show off her happiness in front of July Quinn, flaunting the engagent at the internationally famous and expensive Hawes Presidential Hotel, just to make July envious and jealous.
But she never expected July to retort instead.
She had no way to respond to that!
However, July didn’t give her a chance to speak, and continued, "But for you and Nathan to get engaged and The Jacobs Family to only ntion it at Old Master Jacobs’ birthday banquet, it’s really both economical and casual."
Nina nearly had a heart attack from anger and quickly retorted.
"July, The Jacobs Family isn’t doing this to save money. They just think that with grandpa’s birthday, more guests will attend, so they plan to announce the engagent at the birthday banquet. It’s a sign of respect for and seriousness about our engagent, not a casual decision."
"Is that so? But don’t you think having no engagent party really saves The Jacobs Family quite a bit?"
This ti, July didn’t give Nina a chance to argue and added, "But now it’s their uncle managing The Jacobs Family, with money and power not in Nathan’s parents’ hands, it’s reasonable to be thrifty."
"Alright, I’ve received the invitation, I’ll head back to work now."
July walked away happily with the invitation, leaving behind a fuming Nina.
"July Quinn, you stop right there! They’re not broke, there’s no need to be thrifty, did you hear ?"
But no matter how much she yelled, July didn’t stop walking.
Originally, she just wanted to show off her happiness to July, but instead of boasting, she ended up embarrassing herself.
More importantly, Nina really started to suspect that Nathan’s family planned to announce the engagent at Old Master Jacobs’ birthday just to save money?
This suspicion stayed with her until the day of Old Master Jacobs’ birthday banquet...

After getting the invitation, July finally entered Kyle Keaton’s office.
Kyle, seeing her push the door open, buried himself in the pile of docunts.
"Honey, what’s up with you today? Why didn’t you wait for to go to work together?"
July casually placed the invitation on Kyle’s desk and started to organize the docunts regarding the Caelan Sea project.
She wanted to figure out why Kyle was acting so aloof, making it hard to understand him, like a moody girl on one hand.
On the other hand, her task was to stay by her assistant husband, organize docunts about the Caelan Sea project, and learn from them.
But her husband didn’t even glance at her, "It’s work ti now. We’ll talk about unrelated topics after hours."
July simply set the docunts aside, wrapped her arms around Kyle’s neck from behind, "Why didn’t you think it was work ti when you kissed yesterday while doing private things?"
While speaking, her hand slid down from Kyle’s neck, drawing circles on his chest.
In such a situation, how could Kyle possibly concentrate?
He imdiately grabbed her mischievous hand, growling lowly, "July Quinn, behave yourself!"
But July just snuggled into his embrace, straddling his legs, "No way! Won who can act coy have the best life, being well-behaved is useless!"
In just a few moves, July could feel all of Kyle’s muscles tense up.
Especially those deep eyes, unable to hide his thoughts.
July’s lips curled into a victorious smile instantly.
Noticing the woman’s mockery, Kyle was filled with anger.
"What exactly do you want?"
Why did she suddenly co over to provoke him again?
If it weren’t for the fear of being caught in an embarrassing state again, he would have wanted to handle her right on this desk to see if she dared provoke him again!
"I just wanted to ask what happened to you this morning, why are you ignoring , and fed a mouthful of car exhaust?"
