Chapter 325 - The Wedding: Announcing It to the World
Pregnant With CEO's Baby
He quickly went forward. âFourth Master Swan is here too.â
He was quite enthusiastic.
Jeanne thought it was a pity that Alexander was not an actor. If he wanted to act as a bad guy in a supporting role, he could definitely win the award for the Best Supporting Role.
At that moment, Jenifer also came over in a hurry and greeted Edward warmly. âWelcome, Fourth Master.â
âThank you.â Edward also appeared to be very polite. Then, he said, âI came today mainly to discuss with you my marriage with Jeannie.â
Jeannie.
Jeanneâs heart skipped a beat.
It was her first time hearing Fourth Master Swan say the word âJeannieâ.
He usually addressed her as âMs. Lawrenceâ, which sounded a little distant, but she thought it sounded a little flirty coming from his mouth.
âOh! Is that so?â Embarrassment washed over Alexanderâs face for a few seconds before he joked, âIâve seen the news. I didnât know your relationship had developed to this stage. You guys have hidden your relationship very well .â
Jeanne, who was standing at the side, really wanted to laugh.
The Lawrences were indeed two-faced, and they were amazing at it.
âWe have never hidden it.â Edward did not give Alexander a way out. What he meant was that he had been dating Jeanne the entire time, but they just did not care about her.
......
Alexander was a little embarrassed, so Jenifer quickly tried to smooth things over. âCome in and sit down. After all, we are a family now.â
Edward nodded and walked to the sofa while holding Jeanneâs hand.
Watching their fingers interlocked, Jenifer suppressed her emotions and continued to greet them with a smile on her face.
On the sofa, Edward went straight to the point. âThe wedding is scheduled for the 16th, which is three days later. The timing is a little abrupt, but donât worry. You can leave everything to me. All you need to do is be there with Jeanne on the wedding day.â
âOh, okay. Weâll go with your arrangements.â Alexander quickly nodded.
âAs for the wedding gifts and dowry... For the dowry, thereâs no need for you to prepare it because time is too tight, and I donât want you to worry about it. Moreover, my father has said that he doesnât care about these ostentatious arrangements.â Edward said bluntly, âAs for the wedding gifts, my father said that weâll prepare them according to your wishes.â
âAs the old man said, we arenât the kind of people to put much emphasis on ostentation as well. Since weâre saving on the dowry, you donât have to spend too much on the wedding gifts. In fact, weâre fine as long as you guys are fine with it. Thereâs no need for all the visiting. Iâd rather not go through all the formalities,â said Alexander.
Since the other party had made their point clear, if he were to open his mouth and ask for the wedding gifts, what would people say when word of this spread?
âSince youâve said so, Iâll go with the Swansâ arrangements.â
âYes. Sure.â Alexander nodded his head.
He knew it was impossible for such a large family like the Swans to not gift them with anything.
Then, he heard Edward say, âIâve prepared eight percent of the Swansâ original shares. On the day of the wedding, I will transfer all the shares to Jeannie. That will be considered my wedding gift.â
Alexander looked at Edward, speechless and too stunned to react.
At that moment, Jeanne felt like laughing again.
Alexander probably did not expect that Fourth Master Swan would give out the shares of the Swans. What was more, he did not expect that Fourth Master Swan would give it to her directly and not to the Lawrences.
âI believe you and my father share the same thoughts. Since Jeannie and I are getting married, the so-called wedding gift and dowry should fall on us,â Edward said in a dignified manner.
Jeanne could see Alexanderâs face distorting in anger.
Only after a long while did Alexander reply, âYes, thatâs right. Old Master Swan is indeed thoughtful.â
âIn that case, the dowry and wedding gifts are decided.â
âItâs decided.â Alexander nodded his head.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, he did not mean what he said.
âI still have some things to attend to tonight, so I will take my leave now.â Edward stood up from the sofa.
Jeanne was puzzled as she thought he would stay at the Lawrencesâ for dinner.
âLetâs have dinner before you leave,â Alexander said enthusiastically.
âOnce Jeannie and I are married, there will be many opportunities for us to have dinner in the future. Thereâs no need for that tonight.â Edward refused.
Seeing that Edward had matters to attend to, Alexander did not make things difficult for him and thus agreed.
With that, Edward turned around and left.
Jeanne followed him. âIâll send you out.â
A smile hung on Edwardâs lips again.
Jeanne saw Edward out at the main entrance.
To be honest, she was still a little surprised at Fourth Master Swanâs efficiency in handling matters.
When they were discussing marriage just now, he was so domineering that the other party did not have the power to resist at all!
Even his departure now was easy.
