‘Chapter 322 My Fiancé

Clara immediately came to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of good wine, and placed it on the dining table.

Irene smiled and said, “Mr. Gage, my grandpa took out the good wine that he has treasured for many years,

so you can imagine how happy he is today. He bought the wine from an Italian auction house dozens of years

ago. I was not born yet back then. It’s not easy to find such good wine.”

As she spoke, Irene stood up and gently opened the bottle.

“Manuel is really lucky, Irene is beautiful and considerate. I’m so happy for my grandson,” Koen said.

Brady said without any emotional fluctuation, “Koen, w**ver you say, you can’t give Irene a penny less.

Manuel, you are a genius in the business world. I will entrust my granddaughter to you. You must try your

best to help her. You know, the Wade Group will be yours after I **.”

“Grandpa! What are you saying? You will live long,” Irene complained, pretending to be annoyed.

“Okay, okay, I will live long.” Brady patted her hand.

“I’m here today to discuss the date of the engagement party. Brady, please make your request,” Koen said.

Brady showed a piece of paper in front of Koen. “I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. How about

November 3rd?”

“There’s only one month left?” Koen took the paper.

“So fast?” Manuel frowned slightly.

Irene quietly placed the red wine glass in front of Manuel and said softly, “Manuel, Grandpa wanted the party to be held even earlier. I did not want us to be in such a hurry, so he postponed it.”

She then asked, “Manuel, do you want to put it off? Of course, I can wait, but I’m afraid someone cannot.”

Koen looked at Irene meaningfully. “Sounds interesting. Irene, who are you talking about?”

Irene said with a playful smile, “Mr. Gage, is there anyone else in the room other than the four of us?”

“Alright. Let’s say November 3rd.” Manuel looked at Irene seriously.

He began to calculate in his heart. The investigation did not go smoothly. How could he find out what had

happened in a month?

As Manuel had something on his mind, he did not listen carefully to what his grandfather and Brady were

saying during the meal.

As soon as Manuel helped Koen out of the Wade’s, the dazzling flashes went off in front of him. A dozen

reporters held up their cameras and took pictures like crazy.

“Mr. Gage, did you and Koen come to the Wade’s house for the engagement?”

“Mr. Gage and Ms. Wade are childhood sweethearts. Are you getting married?”

“Mr. Gage, Ms. Wade, may I ask where your engagement party will be held? Will the media be allowed to

enter

the hall?”

“Ms. Wade…”

Manuel stared at those people impatiently. Koen did not lose his temper, but those reporters were

intimidated by his mighty aura.

Irene walked up to the front of the crowd, took the microphone from a reporter, and said softly, “My

Friends,

we know that you care about me and Manuel very much. Today, Mr. Gage and Manuel did come to our

house

for the engagement. The party will be held on the third day of November. We will keep you guys informed

of

the future arrangement. Everyone, it’s getting late. Can you please move aside to let Mr. Gage and

Manuel go

home first? I will answer all your questions later.”

The reporters all praised Ms. Wade for being as generous and considerate as before, and they quickly

stepped aside.

Manuel and Koen got into the black car and disappeared into the distance a short while later.

Irene answered the reporters’ questions calmly, a smile always on her face.

After the interview, Irene even gave everyone a bag of black tea.

The torrential rain did not stop. After all the reporters had dispersed, Irene returned to her room. She

picked

up her phone and saw three missed calls, all from Manuel.

She smiled and called back.

“Manuel? You have never called me so many times. It seems that you have something urgent to tell me.”

Manuel’s cold, muffled voice came from the other end of the line. “I have given you what you want.

Release

the person I want to see.”

Irene complained, “Manuel, you are really heartless. I am your fiancée. Can’t you show a little bit of

concern.

for me?”

She pouted. “Manuel, where’s your conscience? Do you know how long I have been dealing with those

reporters after I let you and Mr. Gage leave?”

Manuel’s voice remained cold. “It was you who brought those reporters in. I think you must be very

happy

when you answered their questions.”

“Manuel, you are right. I want the whole world to know about our marriage. I want the whole world to know

that I am your fiancée.”

Manuel said, “Isn’t it too early to say? There is still one month before the engagement party.”

Irene said indifferently, “Manuel, now that things have come to this point, I will be your fiancée in a month

anyway. What’s the big deal about my announcing the news now? Moreover, everyone in Seattle knows that

we are going to get engaged. Tomorrow’s newspaper will definitely spread this news. I believe that our

wedding ceremony will be even more sensational than our engagement party.”

Manuel remained silent for a long time. Irene could still hear his steady breathing.

She hurriedly said, “Manuel, since you are so worried, I will tell you. She is already safe. But, I hope this is the last time you worry about her. After all, tomorrow you can only be my fiancé, and she can only be Serina’s

psychologist.”

After a long silence, Irene knew that Manuel would not respond, so she hung up the phone without saying

anything more.

Compared to the shock of the entire Seattle, Irene was more looking forward to Ainsley’s reaction when the

latter found out about this tomorrow.

In the Gage’s house, Manuel who was sitting in the living room let out a long sigh before he turned off the

lights.

Serina walked out of her room and turned on the lights With a snap. She handed Manuel a glass of water and

said, “Manuel, have some water.”

She smiled bitterly and continued in a trembling voice, “Manuel, I just saw a *** article on the Internet.

The reporter said that you were engaged to Irene. He even said that the engagement party would be held a month later. But what he said sounded reasonable. If I were not your sister, I would have believed it. It is really.

***

Serina looked at Manuel with expectation and hoped that he would tell her calmly that all the news was fake.

It was all made up by the reporters who had nothing important to do.

She waited quietly for several minutes, but Manuel did not say a word. He took out a cigarette from the package on the table and lit it, gazing at the dancing blue flame.
