The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Sasha couldn't hide her excitement, gracefully taking her seat at the gtable. Jasper and Yorick took the head seats, with Arthur sitting close to Yorick's side.

With a casual wave of his hand, Jasper instructed the staff to prepare sfine tea and pastries. Having been friends with Yorick for years, and now discussing their children, it was only fitting to treat each other with utmost respect.

Yorick's face was lit with a warm smile, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes resembling open fans. He spoke with a joyful yet solemn tone, "Jasper, I'm here today to talk about Sasha and Arthur's wedding. I was thinking we could have it within the week, picking a lucky day." Jasper, who usually had a bit of a rivalry with Yorick upon their meetings, nodded seriously this time. "Sasha has been with the Linklaters for a while now. It's indeed tfor the wedding, but letbe clear-if you ever let Sasha feel slighted, I'll be there in a heartbeat to bring her back home!" Arthur stepped forward, earnestly promising, "Dad, I will cherish Sasha with all my heart! Not just you, but I myself wouldn't bear to see her hurt. If she ever feels slighted, you can cafterwith a bat, and I won't say a word!" Jasper remained silent, knowing full well his daughter's feelings for Arthur, he wouldn't dare to argue. If it weren't for Sasha's happiness, he would have preferred to keep her and her daughter close.

Yorick, stroking his beard, presented a list, "Here's the dowry proposal from the Linklaters for Sasha. Please, take a look. If there's anything unsatisfactory, we'll make the necessary additions." The Perez family, being influential, wasn't overly concerned about material gifts, knowing the Linklaters wouldn't disappoint.

Arthur respectfully added, "In addition to the dowry I proposed at the Perez's doorstep-ten billion in cash, ten houses, ten cars, ten plots in Rivenwood suburb, a hundred sets of jewelry, and a hundred sets of clothes-we've included a hundred antiques." Jasper, aware of the Linklaters' regard for Sasha, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "The Perez family will provide Sasha with fifty houses in Sea City, fifty cars, several profit-generating companies, and an additional two hundred billion." Yorick nodded with a slight smile, "Then let's set the wedding for the day after tomorrow. I'll start preparing the invitations personally. What do you think?" Jasper, with a dignified nod, agreed, "That sounds good. The Perez family will attend Sasha's wedding without fail. We must celebrate my daughter's wedding in style!" After finalizing their plans, they left the Perez's grand hall. Sasha was just finishing a gwith Finnian.

"Ah, you've beaten me! Not even a little mercy for an old man like me," Finnian grumbled.

"Next tat my wedding, you must come. I'll give you a rematch then," Sasha said with a triumphant smile.

Finnian's eyes sparkled briefly, "Look at you, all smug. You don't get this excited playing with Jasper!" Just then, Jasper approached and overheard, puffing up in mock anger, "Who are you calling an old man? And you dare say I play badly!" But when he turned to Sasha, his tone softened, filled with affection, "Ah, Sasha, it's hard to keep a grown daughter at home. But even after you join the Linklaters, you're still a Perez. You know without saying - our support is always with you. Marry into their family, but live happily and joyfully!" Sasha hugged Jasper tightly, "Dad, I'll always be a Perez, and your daughter first. Miss me, and I'll crunning with Vivienne to see you." Arthur, with a gentle chuckle and his rugged voice softened, added, "Dad, I'll make sure to bring Sasha back to visit. And I can play chess with you, letting you win as many games as you want." Yorick turned away, hiding his feelings, internally cursing, "That lad's never been this sweet to me!" At the Wright residence.

With a crash, Alyssa, overwhelmed by emotion, swept all the cosmetics from her dressing table to the floor.

"Are you saying Arthur and Sasha are getting married the day after tomorrow?!" Alyssa's eyes were bloodshot, a deep resentment stirring her into agitation.

"Yes, Alyssa, the news just broke. Yorick personally went to propose on behalf of Arthur. Both families agreed, and the wedding is set for the day after tomorrow. Talk about moving fast." Brianna, with a complex expression, tried to calm down the agitated Alyssa, "We need to cup with a plan fast. Do you really want to see Sasha and Arthur get married?" Feeling a rush of panic, Alyssa's fingers trembled. She had just cout from being disciplined, and now Arthur and Sasha were about to marry? This could not happen! She steadied herself, gripping Brianna's hand, "I have a plan that could delay their wedding, at least for a while." The ultimate schto keep Sasha and Arthur apart for good was still out of reach, but buying twas a victory in itself.

She whispered into Brianna's ear, who slowly smirked in response.

After Brianna left, Alyssa sat in front of a messy vanity, her gaze flickering dark and bright, her fingernails digging sharply into her palm.

Outside the room, a tall man stood at the door, handsand distinguished, known as Robbie Wright.

As Robbie stepped inside, he immediately noticed the disarray and frowned deeply, discontented, "You've just calmed down, why are you throwing such a fit again?" Seeing her dear brother, Alyssa's eyes welled up with tears, her voice laced with grievance and bitterness, “It's because Sasha and Arthur are getting married!" Chapter 900 1 His tone carried a warning.

"You've been hanging around with that Brianna girl too much lately. You know exactly what kind of person she is," Robbie reminded her again.
