Jacqueline knew that Rodney had just passed away and that it was inappropriate to mention the engagement to Cecelia now.

She had been so anxious to get Luther to agree to be engaged to Charlotte, and she didn't expect the Heath family to have such a

sudden accident at this critical moment. Now they would have to take care of the funeral, and she had no idea whether the Heath

family would postpone the engagement.

Right now there were still more than ten days before the engagement. The invitations had all been sent out, and all the

preparations had been made. At this time, if they just canceled the engagement, no matter what she said, such a hasty

cancellation would affect the Warner family's reputation, plus the Heath family was not going to announce the death of Rodney. At

that time, the outside world would certainly be suspicious. She didn’t really know what to do this time.

Just now she had found the opportunity to speak, but Luther said he wanted to offer incense and interrupted her.

Right now, she finally found an opportunity.

Cecelia finished explaining to the adjutant beside her about the loading and departure later.

She hurriedly approached and asked in a low voice, "Cecelia, how long will it take for you to return from the Capital?"

Cecelia frowned lightly, "I really don't know. We have got something to deal with in the Capital. In addition, Rodney passed away

unexpectedly. I'm afraid | won't be able to finish it without half a month."

Just as she expected! Jacqueline's eyelids jumped and she poked around again, "Cecelia, is Charlotte going back to the Capital with

you?"

At this point, Charlotte, who was on the sidelines, instantly understood Jacqueline's intention. Jacqueline was worried that the

originally planned engagement would be postponed. In fact, she was also worried, only she could not find a way to solve it.

Since Jacqueline spoke first, the engagement perhaps could go as planned with a little help from her later on.

"Yeah, Charlotte is the only descendant of the Heath family, and naturally has to go back for it." Cecelia returned.

For a few moments, she seemed to understand Jacqueline's meaning, and her bright eyes shone slightly, "Oh, | see, you are trying

to ask about the engagement. Perhaps we can postpone it and wait for ..."

Jacqueline hurriedly interrupted, "Cecelia, | know you must be very sad right now, and do not have the heart to talk about

something like this. | should not have mentioned it. Can you not postpone the engagement? Of course, it would be ok if you cannot

attend the ceremony if you don’t have the time, but can you let Charlotte cback first? We'll take care of it all, and we won't

bother you at all."

"Cecelia, seriously, I've already sent out all the invitations. A sudden change may cause speculations. Besides, it is not known

when the military will announce the death of Mr. Heath. The Warner family can't afford to postpone the engagement, and

Charlotte's reputation is also at stake." Jacqueline had heard that in the past, when a senior military official passed away, the

obituary was not published until a year or two later to avoid unnecessary problems. Perhaps Mr. Heath's death will not be

announced for a while. In that case, she could not explain to the public why the engagement had been postponed.

"Yes, yes, Aunt Cecelia, Charlotte is pregnant and it's hard for her to travel that long. Perhaps she could stay here and I'll take care

of her. I'll cand stay with her every day." Shelly interjected from the sidelines.

Jacqueline heard this, and quickly pull Shelly. Shelly had gone too far. No matter what, how could they not let Charlotte go back to

the Capital for the funeral.

"But this ..." Cecelia was a little hesitant. After all, Charlotte was the only bloodline of the Heath family.

The Heath family just had a funeral and immediately afterwards a wedding. It looked just inappropriate. She originally wanted to

talk to Jacqueline about not getting engaged and simply waiting for the baby to be born before having a wedding.
