Chapter 1529:
Clearing his throat, he addressed Hadley directly. “Milly’s made her choice clear, so please accept it graciously.”
Satisfied, Milly smiled warmly and gently squeezed Hadley’s hand. “You and Eric, happy together.”
Emotion overwhelmed Eric as he gazed lovingly at his mother, a sudden warmth filling his vision.
Gently, he nudged Hadley with encouragement. “You should accept it.”
Turning toward Eric briefly, Hadley softened, her smile tender as she graciously accepted the gift. “I truly
appreciate this, Mrs. Scott.”
“Good.” Milly flashed her a big grin.
Ernest and Elissa soon moved forward, taking their turn.
With genuine warmth, Ernest said to Hadley, “Best wishes on this new chapter, Hadley.”
“That's kind of you, Ernest,” Hadley replied warmly.
“Now, Eric...”
Pretending irritation, Ernest gave Eric a pointed stare. “You invited us without mentioning the proposal. I'm

Ernest hesitated, narrowing his eyes at Eric's shameless grin—but quickly decided it wasn’t worth bickering.
“Hey, Hadley,” Brady said with an apologetic shrug. “I'm empty-handed too, but next time...”
“You can stop right there,” Hadley said, interrupting with a playful wave. “Really, you're family, and your
presence is enough.”
Elissa gently reached for Hadley’s hand and said softly, “Hadley, I'm so happy for you.”
“Thank you,” Hadley warmly squeezed her hand back, sharing a quiet moment of joy. Just then, sharp cracks
filled the air, and glittering confetti burst upward, swirling brilliantly.
Marshall and Barrie appeared, triumphantly brandishing champagne bottles. Both turned expectantly toward
Eric. “Just waiting on your word—should we get these bottles open?”
“Go for it!”
