Yorick, always the gracious host, had his staff bring out the finest tea and pastries. Today was a joyous occasion, a day to discuss the nuptials of their grandchildren, and he was determined to celebrate in style.

Sasha and Arthur's wedding went off without a hitch, and we really can't delay Vivienne and Percival's any longer." "We need to have them walk down the aisle by the end of next month. It would fulfill an old man's dying wish," he added, a twinkle in his eye.
Yorick chuckled. "The kids' big day is long overdue. Let's just make sure it's exactly to their liking." Richard had braced himself for a tough negotiation, aware of how much Arthur doted on his daughter Vivienne, and knowing Yorick was just as attached to his granddaughter. He was pleasantly surprised by Yorick's agreeable response.
"Ha! The Ellington heir's wedding will be the event of the season. Rest assured, Vivienne won't be disappointed. And they'll have their own place post-wedding but are always wee here," Richard assured with a hearty laugh.
Raising his glass, Yorick clinked it with Richard's. "That's all I needed to hear." As they were about to delve into the wedding plans, Arthur suddenly interjected, "Hold on a moment!" Richard paused, sensing the impending hurdle.
Arthur, feeling the weight of several stern gazes, reluctantly invoked the Perez family's authority, hoping to buy stime. "Richard, it's not that we're unwilling to give Vivienne away. It's just that her uncles have raised sconcerns about rushing the wedding." Arthur's confidence wavered under the pressure.
Percival, with a slight smirk, reassured everyone, "The uncles are on board. Feel free to give them a call to confirm." Arthur was flabbergasted but did as suggested, only to be met with a loud and clear endorsement of Percival's plans from Maddox, one of Vivienne's uncles.

As the laughter subsided, Arthur reluctantly agreed to proceed with the wedding plans, realizing his daughter's happiness-and his own posthumous arrangements-were at stake.
Chapter 946 2 The Harringtons were not the kind to fuss over money; for them, it was all about showing how much Vivienne meant to them in the grand schof things.
Seeing an opportunity, Cecilia gently nudged her husband from behind.
Nathan quickly caught on, "Yorick, aside from what we've listed, we're also giving Vivienne a thirty percent stake in several businesses under the Harrington name, along with sixteen estates in Rivenwood, two country mansions, and a collection ofa hundred pieces of fine jewelry." Yorick nodded in approval, clearly impressed by theirmitment as parents.
Just then, Percival stood up and respectfully addressed his grandfather, "Grandpa, on the wedding day, I plan to transfer all my assets to Vivienne in front of everyone." "I'm aware that my fortunes might not seem extraordinary to someone like Vivienne, but I promise to do everything within my power to ensure her life is secure, peaceful, andfortable."
