Chapter 597 Betrothal Gift

At that thought, they couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The Ashton family is not what it used to be, so

what can we possibly receive in the end?

Gwendolyn replied, “I've visited him, and I'll also be going today. After the marriage talk is done,

Zayden and I will go there.”

She figured her grandfather should be waiting since his biggest wish now was to see her get married.

Christina's eyes gleamed. “So, how's Dad's condition? Will he recover?”

Ever since members of the Ashton family learned about Michael's hospitalization and deteriorating

health, they all came back. Their intention in doing so couldn't be more obvious.

“Grandpa is fine. He's conscious and even said he would attend my wedding ceremony.”

Of course, those were merely lies to deceive them.

Given Michael's current condition, there was no way he could leave the hospital. Otherwise,

Gwendolyn wouldn't have to agree to get married so soon.

The two older women were slightly startled before saying, “Oh, that's good.”

With that, they got to their feet. “Gwen, take your time to eat. We'll go out to help now.”

Gwendolyn nodded. Being watched by them while she had her breakfast was indeed discomforting.

Francine and Christina chatted as they walked out.

“Did you hear that, Francine? Dad is in good health. He's not going to distribute his assets.”

Francine shook her head. “How can you believe her? Gwen has a good relationship with Dad.

Therefore, she certainly hopes he will get better. However, can't you see why she's in such a hurry to

get married? It's because she wants to let him witness her marriage. The assets will still have to be

divided.”

“You have a point. It seems like Gwen isn't so easy to fool anymore. She has become shrewd.”

After the two exited the dining room, Candace strode over. She crossed her arms and glanced coldly at

the duo, uttering discourteously, “You two think Dad will give her the most family possessions, don't

you? Don't forget who her mother is and why he spoils her.”

Michael's favorite son was Zachary, and he had doted on the latter since the latter was a child.

Therefore, Michael also treasured Zachary's first daughter, Gwendolyn.

If it weren't because Felicia was an illegitimate child, Michael would've cherished her too. Candace

blamed Gwendolyn for that. If it weren't for Gwendolyn and her mother, Fel would've been the most

doted on by Old Mr. Ashton.

Francine and Christina immediately tried to smooth things over. Francine wrapped her arms around

Candace's.

“Candace, you're overthinking. We came here to congratulate Gwen since the Surrington family is

coming to propose marriage today.”

Christina chimed in, “That's right! Since Gwen's the highlight today, we simply want to congratulate her

on her fine marriage. But, speaking of which, Fel is the one who got the better deal. Patrick is so

handsome, and the Lowen family is so formidable. How can Zayden be compared to Patrick when he's

just a blind man?”

Candace's mood finally brightened up a little after she listened to Francine and Christina's words.

Gwendolyn is no match for my daughter. Patrick is Fel's, so Gwendolyn can stop dreaming of being

with him.

In the afternoon, the Surringtons arrived. Zayden came with his parents and grandparents. Evidently,

the Surrington family regarded the marriage with great importance.

Suzanne stood beside Gwendolyn and watched the approaching party. Trailing behind them was a

small truck. When the truck stopped, the servants started unloading box after box of items, each one

exquisitely wrapped.

Gwendolyn asked puzzlingly, “What's in those boxes?”

One of the older servants answered, “These are betrothal gifts brought by the Surrington family.”

Gwendolyn was slightly surprised, not expecting them to bring so many betrothal gifts.

The Surrington family's butler handed a document to the Ashton family's butler, who then passed it to

Zachary.

Initially, the list should've been handed to Michael, but since he wasn't there, Zachary took Michael's

place.

Candace glanced over, and her eyes lit up at once. They brought that many betrothal gifts over?

Francine had already moved closer to take a look, then turned around and whispered, “Gwen, the

Surrington family is quite sincere. The betrothal gifts include eight boxes of an assortment of precious

jewelry, six storefronts, and an additional fifty million.”
