So, that was it.
Julien slightly lifted his chin.
He thought that Lyra was deliberately targeting Sydney.
"I can't help but lecture you, Julien," Brandon looked at Julien with a straight face and said in displeasure," Although Lyra isn't officially engaged to you, Sydney destroying the last engagement banquet already announced to the whole world that Lyra is your fiancee. Since she's your fiancee, you should at least buy her a ring. People will laugh at Lyra if you don't give her anything."
"Don't say that, Dad. Julien has his own ideas. Let's not force him," Lyra pulled Brandon's sleeve and hurriedly advised.
At the same time, she did not forget to look at Julien apologetically as if afraid that he would get angry. " Sorry, Julien. Don't mind my dad's words."
"It's fine. Your dad is right. I should give you a ring," Julien's cold voice answered.
The reason why he had not given Lyra a ring was because he did not want to. That was why he deliberately said that he would give her one after they got married.
As for why he did not want to give it, he could not say either. However, Brandon was right. Since Lyra had taken the name of his fiancee, if he did not give her a ring, the people in the circle would more or less look down on her.
"Julien, are you serious?" Lyra looked at Julien with joy.
Julien's eyes softened slightly when he saw her so happy. "Of course."
Lyra was the woman he loved. He once said that he would make her happy for life.
How could he not give her a ring just because of that unspoken emotion in his heart?
"You're the best, Julien." Lyra happily jumped into Julien's arms.
Brandon feigned anger and glared at her. "You're abandoning your father for a ring. A woman's heart truly only lies with her husband."
"Dad!" Lyra turned around and shouted, pretending to pout. However, in reality, Brandon and her exchanged a look that only they could understand.
Yes, the father and daughter came to find Julien on purpose.
Before they came up, they already found out that the person in Boom 1 was Julien, so they planned out this skit for Julien to give in and buy her a ring. That way, her position as his fiancee would become firmer.
Unexpectedly, they succeeded. It was a very smooth success.
"Julien, shall we go pick out the ring tomorrow? I want one from DR. Although it's considered a luxury brand, it's generally not that expensive and can even be considered affordable, but I still want it. It represents that one man can only buy one ring." Lyra looked up at him. "Can we, Julien?"
When Julien heard her say "one man can only buy one ring", his brows twisted slightly and he subconsciously wanted to say no. However, when he looked at her expectant eyes, he finally suppressed the rejection in his heart and nodded. "All right."
"Thank you, Julien." Lyra happily hugged him tightly.
Julien's thin lips twitched, but he could not feel happy. He only felt annoyed.
After a few seconds, he gently pushed Lyra away." Well, let's go to the banquet first. Mr. and Mrs. Leigh are waiting for us."
"You're right. Let's hurry up and go." Brandon nodded.
The Leigh family was stronger than the Madden family.
Although they could not be compared to the Flint family, the Madden family had to defer to the Leigh family and could not offend them.
At that moment, in the brightly lit banquet hall, people raised their glasses and socialized.
Sydney held a glass of fruit juice as she looked around for something.
Luke brought a tray of refreshments over and handed it to her. "We finally got rid of that leech Hunter. I wonder what's gotten into him these days. He's Julien's friend, but he doesn't go find Julien and insists on hanging around us instead. We can't even get rid of him. He's so annoying."
"Well, he means no harm. Besides, he has a good character and he's entertaining in conversation. It's quite nice getting along with him." Sydney took the refreshments with a smile.
