Chapter 452

The lanterns were lit up first and the Graham family mansion was brought to life. Almost all the guests had arrived, except for Matthew and the Donovan family.

Everyone was guessing. “I heard that Mr. Matthew and Mr. Nicolas‘ relationship has deteriorated recently. Mr. Matthew insisted on being with Athena, but Mr. Nicolas didn’t allow it. Mr Nicolas even wanted to hold a board meeting to impeach Mr. Matthew. Will Mr. Matthew skip the event because of this?”

A guest added, “His father’s health isn’t good, and it’s his 65th birthday. If Mr. Matthew doesn’t even attend his father’s birthday banquet because of a woman, he’s just disloyal, heartless, and unfilial. He’s not worthy of being Graham Group’s leader!”

Someone said, “Even Neil is here. If Matthew doesn’t come, it will be a slap in the face to the entire Graham family…

Such thoughts were also the thoughts of most guests.

However, just as everyone thought this, they heard someone call out softly, “Mr. Graham is here!

Everyone turned around and saw Matthew getting out of his Miracle and striding towards the mansions entrance. However, when he reached the entrance, he stopped and did not step into the hall.

Someone greeted him and invited him in, but he said. “This is my girlfriend’s first time at the Graham mansion, I have to wait for her here.

Everyone was in an uproar. They whispered, “Athena should know that the Graham family doesn’t welcome her, right? Why would she dare come?”

It was already seven in the evening

The butler said loudly into the microphone, “Mr. Graham has arrived. Guests, please come to the hall.”

The guests looked at Matthew. It was not appropriate for them to stay in the courtyard, so they rushed into the hall.

Then, they saw Nicolas in the wheelchair and were shocked at how old he appeared. However, they remembered that he hadn’t been seen for a few month…

Nicolas used to look elegant and handsome. His hair was thick and silky, and he had a great posture. His body exuded the charm of a mature and successful man who looked less than 50 years old

However, the current Nicolas was far from his previous self. Half his hair was white, his face had thinned, and prominent wrinkles mapped his face. No matter how one looked at him, Nicolas looked like an old man in his sixties.

It seemed that the rumors about him being sick were not fake and were causing extreme harm to him.

Nicolas knew very well what the guests gazes meant. The comers of his lips curled up, and his eyes were cold. He silently swore, This is Matthew’s fault!

He couldn’t erase his appearance, so he had nothing to worry about

Tonight, he would broadcast the Donovan family’s documentary in front of more than a thousand celebrities and influential people He would let everyone see what kind of nouveau riche family they were and how big the gap was between them and the Graham family. Then, he would mock the Donovan family and ruin Matthew’s image.

He pondered. “That’s right, I have done this purely to mock Matthew and his girlfriend! Now, we’ll see how Matthew will deal with this situation. How dare Matthew refute me in public, scold me and fallout with me?

“Everyone. Nicolas smiled sinisterly and pressed the play button “Before the banquet officially begins. I would like to ask

everyone to watch a documentary with me. A documentary about my son’s girlfriend, Ath..

At this moment, there was a commotion at the door. “Athena is heref

One guest said, “Ah, the Donovan family is here too

Another guest stated, “Luna and Zayn are both here. I didn’t expect…

No matter how big the hall was, it could not hold more than a thousand people. Many guests were standing in the courtyard.

They saw a few luxury cars parked in front of the Grahain mansion. Athena was wearing a light purple, flowing evening gown. She was the first to get out of the car, followed by other family members.

Whether they were men or women, old or young, all of them were good–looking and had extraordinary auras.

Some people immediately recognized a few of the family members as Zayn, Luna, and Josie.

Then, someone recognized more member. “That’s the owner of Donovan’s Farmland and Luna’s husband, Jaden. That’s the second eldest son, and that’s the fourth eldest…

“Those two should be Athena’s parents….

“Only Alafic and his adopted daughter didn’t come.”

One guest praised, “The Donovan family have beautiful genes. All of them are drop–dead gorgeous. No wonder Luna was chapfied…

The Donovan family was calm and composed in the face of the luxurious and imposing mansion and the well–dressed

as if they were used to such occasions. guests with high statuses. They were not nervous at all. It

In fact, they were quite used to it. Or rather, they had seen too many grand spectacles and drama.

Matthew smiled when he saw Athena. He strode over, took her hand, and gently kissed the back of her hand. “You’re here.”

Athena smiled sweetly “Yes, I’m here.”

The guests were stunned for a momen

Athena’s smile was devastatingly beautiful. No wonder Matthew was captivated.

Under the bright lights, Matthew looked at Athena. “Although it a little sudden, there’s something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. I hope you don’t think I’m rude.”

Athena tilted her head slightly and asked in confusion. “Is it a good thing!

Matthew said, “If you agree, that’s a good thing”

Athena smiled. “Although I don’t know what it is, I like good things, so I’ll agree to it”

Matthew smiled. He took two steps back and knelt on one knee in front of her. He flipped his palm up, and an opened box appeared.

Inside the small box was an emerald–tinted rose–shaped diamond ring the size of a tennis ball

Before the crowd could react, Matthew said, “Athena, I want to be with you forever. I want to be your only lover, as well as your husband and the father of your children!

“This rose was plated by my mother when she was alive. I swe be loyal to you

the rest of my life!

Chapter 432

“May you accept my propos

The crowd was finally in an uproar, and it sanded like a violenwind wing across the water, raising wave after ware

A guest whispered. Am I seeing things Is Mr. Matthew really proposing? He didn’t ask for permission from his family,

right

“He didn’t reveal anything beforrland Moreover, it’s Mr. Nicola 65th birthday tonight fent it crazy for him to propose un soch an occasion another guest asked.

Someone said, ‘Oh my god, who would have thought that this wild happen? Is Mr. Matthew actually serious? I really couldn’t tell that he was so serious before. I thought it would be like the previous one, which ended after a while.”

The Donovan family was also stunned. They wondered why Mathew would propose just like that. No one knew how long the two had been in love, and the proposal was quite overwhelming

Faced with the shock and uproar of the entire audience, Athens blushed. She extended her left hand in front of Matth and raised her right hand to cover her face. She said shyly and super sweetly, “Yes, I want to be with you forever, too

The Donovan family was speechless and didn’t know what to do,

They seemed to want to cry. Someone was taking away their precious Athena. They couldn’t process their emotions

However, they could only laugh and applaud to congratulate them.

When the Donovan family applauded, the guests also applauded. For various reasons, most people could not give their blessings and applause at that moment

Nicolas, who was sitting in the Emerald Hall, immediately heard the news that Matthew had proposed to Athena at the entrance of the Graham mansion. He was so angry that he almost fell out of his wheelchair.

He turned and looked around. Thankfully, no one paid him any attention.

Matthew’s public proposal on his 65th birthday was even more shocking.

The guests either went out to see Matthew and Athena or stayed in the hall whispering to each other. No one looked at the photos and videos he had meticulously prepared on the big electronic screen.

He had even prepared a script and was waiting to narrate the commentary on the Donovan family’s history while the documentary played.

Nicolas deeply pondered, ‘How has Matthew played such a trick on me?

He looked up and saw his father, Derrick, Anabel, and the others standing at the stairs on the second floor.

He took out his phone angrily and called his father. He suppressed his anger and said, “Dad, did you see that? Are you going to continue to indulge Matthew and let him marry a woman from a small family?”

Neil listened to him calmly and said, Tll hold a board meeting tomorrow to discuss Matthew’s impeachment.”

There were principles and bottom lines in everything

Marriage to a family like the Donovans would not benefit either Matthew or the Graham Group.

Also, Matthew proposed to Athena without discussing it with his family or asking for permission. This was treason. Neil would not indulge Matthew anymore.

Faced with something as explosive as Matthew’s public proposal, no one noticed Anabel standing next to the elderly.

Chapter 452

Anabel walked away without word, entered an empty bathrooms, and closed the door.

Then, she angrily slapped the wall with her bag and let out a scream.

“So, his true love is Athenal

“The first woman he was rumored to be with was also Athena, bi he hid her very well. He even shifted the public’s attention. to other women. He deceived everyone!

“I can’t accept this!

“I didn’t have time to do anything. I didn’t hurt Athena and the Donovan family at all. They damaged my reputation. I became a joke in the family, Dichester, and the company!”

She revealed a cold and slightly crazy smile. “Didn’t you say that harmed Matthew’s girlfriend? Since I can’t get rid of this blame Donovan family suffer. I’ll make Matthew pay for this!”
