NovelEnglishChapter 1537: We Must Toast Together
"The dishes are all served, please enjoy your meal." The waitress respectfully bowed and left, considerately closing the door behind
her.
With the table full of hot dishes, the meal was quite lavish. It was filled with countryside dishes that were rarely seen in the city,
making them all the more appetizing.
Everyone understood Tristan's intentions by now. Belinda and Algerone Swain's feelings had shifted from shock to being touched.
Monica, who longed for her parents to reunite, gathered her thoughts, gave a light cough, and said after seeing Tristan hand her
father a cup of buckwheat tea, "Con, let's toast! It's a rare gathering, and this tea is indeed fragrant!"
With her chattering and causing a ruckus, the awkwardness floating in the air dispersed a little.
Seeing her break the silence, Tristan quickly raised his cup and said, "Yes, yes, we must toast first. Here's to our elders."
As Algerone Swain raised his cup, his gaze fell on the middle-aged woman sitting across from him.

Although Belinda was still a bit out of sorts and felt a little awkward, she had no choice but to raise her cup.
The family of four stood up to toast, and Monica, acting as the perfect mediator, eased the restaurant's atmosphere quite a bit.
"It's great that the three of you are cooperating. You all know each other so well! The trust is off the charts." Monica's smile was
radiant, "Since both mom and dad are here, | also have sgood news to announce today!"
All eyes fell on her, looking at her with great respect.
Tristan jokingly asked, "What good news? Are you in love?"
"Isn't that already known?" Monica glanced at him and teased, "I guess the whole world knows by now?"
She stood up again, proudly patted her chest, "I, Monica, am going to find a job in Arkpool City! I'll be a piano teacher in a training
institution!"
"A teacher?"
"Teaching piano?"
Upon hearing this, both Algerone Swain and Tristan could not help but feel disappointed. They both hoped that she would seek a
position in their respective companies!
"Yes, a teacher. What's the matter? Why do you both look like you've been hit? Aren't you happy?"
It seemed they were a step too late, but as men who loved her, they could only agree and support her decision. Smiles returned to
everyone's faces.
"Of course we're happy, full support!"
"Thank you! Thank you all! Con, let's toast again!" Monica's smile was brilliant, maximizing her role as a mediator.
For this matter, everyone toasted again with tea in lieu of wine.
The awkward atmosphere was gradually easing, and Belinda finally stopped feeling uneasy, becoming much more relaxed.

"Let's eat first, the dishes won't taste as good when they cool." Tristan said, prompting everyone to pick up their forks, "Let's chat
while we eat."
At this point, Monica added, "Since we're all family, let's not be polite. Eating and chatting is nice, much better than formally sitting
in the living room discussing work."
Tristan smiled, thinking to himself that Monica really did cat the right ttonight.
As they ate, Algerone Swain asked a question, and Tristan began to explain the difference between the new real estate project to
be developed next year and the one developed by Clarke Corp this year, as well as its biggest advantages.
He was concise and to the point, not wasting words. In fact, Clarke Corp was exceptionally good at real estate development,
standing at the top in Arkpool City.
As the meal was nearing its end, the business discussions were reaching their climax.
Three copies of the partnership plan were distributed to each of them, including Monica. Everyone was eating and chatting...
everyone had a say.
