Chapter 91

Mrs. Turner planned the entire event, even down to the invitees. Once it was time, the guests were seated. They didn't invite everyone, they invited only top businessmen and women, people of noble backgrounds. Most of their business partners were also invited, and the event was held in a very expensive hotel. Mrs. Turner dressed up so elegantly, her pride could be seen as strongly as her joy could be felt. Edwin wasn't interested in the event or even engaging Hannah. Somewhere he had hoped Jessica would show up. At least he would be able to gauge her reaction when she saw him with another woman. But alas, she wasn't invited at all. His mother didn't find her a worthy companion.
The entire event was covered live on TV. When he heard that, he relaxed a little. At least if she wasn't going to attend, she could watch it. Edwin wasn't going to allow any sentiment to ruin his plans for the evening.
After the introductory speech, Edwin invited Hannah up the stage and proposed to her before everyone. Hannah's smile was so wide that it was evident how happy she was. Edwin gave a small smile that made her heart flutter.
