His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 1071

While the Jewells were not one of the four most influential families in Chanaea, they were certainly at the top of the pyramid.

Moreover, the Jewell family had an ancient bloodline. Although they no longer dabbled in the business world, the Jewells played a prominent role in politics to this day.

With Hans backing Arielle up, no one would dare to question her background or even raise the matter if she married Vinson in the future.

Arielle's background bothered

Susanne the most, so she was delighted to hear Hans' proposal. She mulled over it for a couple of seconds before nodding her assent. “The two children would have a much brighter future if you would take Arielle as your goddaughter. As you know, rumors may not leave wounds, but they can bury a person alive.”

Hans nodded in understanding. “If my men- If Arielle agrees to it, I'll throw a banquet and announce this news,” he said, overjoyed.

“Sounds good,” Susanne agreed.

She figured that even if Arielle did not end up marrying Vinson, the young woman’s life would be a lot easier if Hans had her back.

Maureen, this is the best I can do for you.

At this moment, dinner was ready.

Arielle served three steaming bowls of ravioli and took her seat. Unable to contain his excitement, Hans blurted out his plan to take Arielle as his goddaughter.

Arielle hesitated before replying, “I... I’ll have to ask my parents about this.”

Hearing her response, Susanne was dumbfounded. “Your parents?” she echoed.
