Kane scanned the crowd, then strolled over to Chloe with a grin.
"We're here 'cause we're worried you might get a raw deal. You're my sister-in-law, so we're here to back you up."
Kane's words immediately grabbed everyone's attention—Sister-in-law?!
Did Kane just call Chloe his sister-in-law?! Unbelievable, Chloe's fiancé was from the Ziems family!
But...Who was Kane's brother?
At this point, Nate stepped forward and said:
"Ms. Chloe, I'm here to deliver the wedding gift on behalf of the president."
At this, Chloe's gaze involuntarily drifted towards the entrance. But Kane cut her off, blocking her view with a smug look and a laugh, "We're here to have your back!"
Chloe's gaze returned, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.
Nate felt a pang of sadness. He knew what Ms. Summers was hoping for, but...
The sudden silence was terrifying.
Seeing the disappointment in Chloe's eyes, Kane quickly said:
"Nate, hurry up, the gift!"
At this point, Jonah hobbled over with his cane.
Nate glanced at Chloe, ignored Carolina on the side, and moved towards Old Mr. Summers.
"Old Mr. Summers, I'm here to deliver the wedding gifts on behalf of the president to Ms. Summers!"
It was at this point that Carolina finally noticed Nate, feeling like she had seen him somewhere before. But before she had a chance to think more about it, Jonah said seriously, "No need. We've agreed that all the gifts will go directly to Ms. Summers."
Nate thought for a moment, then said, "Even so, we should make it public to show the president's respect and care for Ms. Chloe."
Jonah sighed, "Alright, let's make it public then."
Nate chuckled, glanced at Chloe, and said a little sheepishly:
"Ms. Chloe, he says this is his first time getting married and he's not sure how many gifts are appropriate. Hope you don't mind."
Chloe didn't care about these things, but she found Nate's words amusing.
His first time getting married? She couldn't imagine the expression on his face when he said that.
She couldn't help but laugh.
