Chapter 423 Tremendous Good News!
That woman is full of greed and deception! She has been scheming against me since the beginning.
Who knows how many times she and her father had forced my hands? I must have hated her so much
that I thought about her just now!
Gareth suppressed his emotions with all his might.
Darren looked at him coldly. “What do you mean? When are you planning to get engaged? You need to
give me a specific date. Otherwise, you’ll keep the Benett family waiting. How can you be so
irresponsible?”
“Everyone expects you and Linda to get married, but you keep delaying the matter. Do you know how
this will look for them? You may be thick-skinned, but I can’t bear the humiliation! I have had a sterling
reputation all my life. Don’t ruin it for me! Stop behaving like a scoundrel!”

Darren snorted. “Your grandmother is unwell, but she wishes for you to remarry Elisa. Since you don’t
want to marry that greedy and devious woman, you can never fulfill her wish. So what can you do to
make her better?”
Gareth had nothing to say.
Monica nodded in agreement. “That’s right. In this situation, you should get married if you wish to help
your grandmother recover. Once you have a child, it would make her happy.”
Gareth was seated at his office desk with a pen in his right hand. He paused for a moment before
signing a document and remained silent all this while.
Darren was rendered speechless.
Monica was indignant. But before she could say anything, Gareth replied flatly, “Have it on the tenth of
next month.”
Monica and Darren were surprised. They did not expect to convince him so easily.
Did we misjudge him about not wanting to marry Linda?
“This… This is not just to humor us, right? We need to announce this to the public.”
“Sure.” Gareth had a solemn expression and did not say anything else.
On the other hand, Monica was elated. Her attitude softened immediately. “Oh, you should have done
this earlier without having your grandfather and I come here. In that case, I’ll head back to begin the
preparations. I plan to send out the invitations in these two days. Meanwhile, you should do your part
and make sure nothing comes up on the tenth. There’s still a month’s time, so get ready.”
Gareth held the pen tightly but did not speak.
It is right to marry Linda. She nearly lost her life to save mine. Thus, I’m indebted to her and should
take care of her for the rest of her life.
His silence amounted to an implicit agreement.

Then, the two of them left.
The employees were confused upon seeing them.
Monica and Old Mr. Wickam had gone in with stern expressions, but they smiled radiantly when they
left. What’s going on?
A member of the senior management approached Old Mr. Wickam with a smile, “Sir, you seem happy
today. Did something good happen?”
Old Mr. Wickam was planning to announce the engagement. Thus, he smiled and said, “It’s about my
grandson. He and Linda will be getting engaged on the tenth of next month. There will be a banquet
then, so mark your calendar.”
The senior management member was surprised and nodded eagerly. “I will! That’s wonderful news! I’ll
be there!”
The employees who were standing by the side heard their conversation.
They were all stunned.
