Chapter 207
After Felix started attending elementary school, Esther and Bradley became even busier. Esther would
help out at Anna’s exhibition during the day and then come home to study with Felix in the evenings.
Felix used to think that the children in kindergarten were childish and boring. It wasn’t until he became
a fifth-grade elementary school student that he discovered the fascinating ocean of knowledge.
His private school was the city’s best, with most of his classmates coming from affluent families. The
annual tuition fee alone equaled the price of an average person’s house. Moreover, there were study
trips during winter and summer vacations. Given the wealthy background of the students’ families,
education was given special emphasis.
Felix, who had always considered himself a genius, became more humble and started studying
diligently in this environment.
Esther would play documentaries in multiple languages to develop Felix’s language skills while helping

Bradley took on the responsibility of teaching Felix golf. Felix also wanted to learn a musical
instrument, so he chose folk music from the many options available.
However, the pleasant and heartwarming days were short-lived. The wedding date announced. by the
wedding company was fast approaching.
In order to be the most beautiful bride, Liliane had prepared herself in the best possible condition. She
didn’t want to get married in a hospital room and instead returned to the Ansteys’ villa well in advance.
The wedding dress would only be worn during the ceremony, so the wedding planner was working on
Liliane’s reception hairstyle. Liliane sat in front of the dressing table, allowing the stylist to create the
most beautiful hairstyle for her.
Billy and Leah, dressed in formal attire, entered the room. Leah looked at her precious daughter,
dressed so beautifully, and couldn’t help but shed tears.
Seeing her teary-eyed reflection in the mirror, Liliane softly said, “Mom, please don’t cry. You should be
happy for me!”
Leah wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and smiled through her tears. “My daughter looks so
beautiful.”
“It’s all thanks to my parents.”
Once the stylist finished the hairstyle, Leah asked the stylist for some privacy.
“Of course, Mrs. Anstey.”
Only the Ansteys remained in the spacious room. Leah gestured to Billy, who took out a large folder
and handed it to Liliane. “Liliane, this is the wedding gift your mother and I have prepared for you.”
Liliane opened the folder and was shocked to find the property deed and stock certificates inside. She
exclaimed, “Dad, Mom, this is too much!”
Leah held Liliane’s hand firmly and said in a choked voice, “Liliane, your father and I only
have you as our daughter. Since your birth, we’ve been preparing for this. Although our family doesn’t
have the same wealth and business as the Warners, we’ve done our best to provide you with a

Billy, who rarely shed tears, couldn’t help but cry. He choked. “Liliane, you and Bradley should be well.
If he mistreats you, don’t keep it to yourself. I’ll support you.”
“Thank you, Dad.” Liliane hugged her father and then hugged Leahı.
As Leah embraced Liliane, she looked at Billy. Now that all of the Ansteys’ assets were in her
daughter’s hands, there was no need for Billy to feel like an outsider anymore.
Leah patted Billy’s shoulder and gently said, “Go and greet the guests.”
“Okay.”
Billy didn’t think much of it and went downstairs directly.
The Ansteys were filled with joy on this day. Wedding decorations adorned every corner, and relatives
and friends from both the Ansteys and Walpoles gathered together, congratulating Billy.
Billy was overwhelmed with joy and indulged in hot and cold beverages.
