Chapter 164
Stephanie and Vincent had a marriage license first, so Stephanie didn’t expect Vincent to give her a grand romantic proposal
She was reborn and valued Vincent more compared to the ceremony. But she was still pleasantly surprised by it.
That night, Stephanie had a wonderful dream She dreamt of herself wearing a beautiful white veil, standing in a sea of red roses. She watched as Vincent walked toward her with a bouquet and held her hand to make a lifetime vow between the heavens and the earth.
So Stephanie woke up with a smile on her lips.
Vincent stroked her lips with his fingertips. “You look so happy. Are you satisfied with my performance last night?”
Stephanie asked, “Why are you full of dirty talk?”
Vincent raised his eyebrows, “Aren’t you satisfied with the fireworks, the aurora proposal, and the hexagram ring? Or are you thinking about something else?”
Stephanie fell speechless.
He continued, “By the way, I should say I was very pleased with your performance yesterday. After all, I love the unprecederited initiative.”
Stephanie’s mouth twitched. She regretted her madness last night
Vincent looked at her regretful expression and couldn’t help laughing “Stephie, don’t be like that.”
He pulled her into his arms. “Why are e you so adorable?”
Stephanie was so angry she punched his chest. But his hard muscles only hurt her hand.
She snorted, Tm going to the studio to draw.”
Vincent asked, “Isn’t it the same drawing at home! You haven’t had a closer look at the mansion yet.
Stephanie thought, Fine, I like this kind of retention method. Besides, I can concentrate on designing wherever I am
So for two days, they stayed in the seaside mansion and didn’t go out.
The third day was the day of the reunion party.
Vincent brought in a styling team to dress Stephanie up..
When the team entered the mansion, they were stunned.
They had never seen such a beautiful princess room before. Vincent really spoiled her.
They really wanted to take photos, but when they saw Vincent’s serious face, they gave up on the idea
Stephanie had a good foundation, so she already looked like a fairy with some light makeup.
She wore the gown Julianna specially designed for her. She looked intellectual, elegant, and even a little sexy.
The evening gown was sleeveless and slim–fitting. The pearly white color complemented Stephanie’s skin, making her look clean and elegant. The most thought–provoking part was the back where a V–neck extended all the way to the waist.

Stephanic had waist–length hair. The team made a few big curls to let it fall to her waist, making her faintly visible hack look
seductive
Vincent cat in the wheelchair with his elbows on the armrest and one of his hands supporting his chin. He frowned slightly.
After applying some bright red lipstick, Stephanie stood up and looked at him. “How is it?”
Vincent glanced at the team leader, who immediately understood it was time to leave now that their task was completed.
They quickly packed up and left.
The mansion returned to being a space for the two.
Vincent stood up and walked toward Stephanie. He tilted his head and lifted her hair that fell around her waist, revealing a large area of skin.
He asked. Julianna designed it
Stephanie humitted. Julia’s designs are always bold, while mine are a little conservative.”
Vincent said, “It’s a
‘s quite
hold. You can ask her to design your clothes in the future.”
Stephanie was surprised for a moment. She thought Vincent wouldn’t like the style.
However, Vincent soon said. “But you can only wear it for me.”
Stephanie was speechless
Vincent held her shoulders with both hands and slowly slid down along her arm to hold her hand. Tll give you a big gift tonight.”
Vincent surprised her a lot, so her eyes shone as she looked forward to it.
He bent his arm and said, “Mrs. Fletcher, please.”
Stephanie glanced at the wheelchair. “Mr. Fletcher, have you forgotten that it is where you belong?
Vincent was speechless.
The Jimenez family invited big shots from various industries to the reunion party, showing the importance they attached to Stephanie
The birthday party before was held in Millennium Hotel. This time, they still chose Millennium Hotel.
Many luxury cars were parked outside the hotel. The men were in suits and the women were elegant. They were all curious about this reunion party. They figured that the reunion was just an excuse, and that the Fletcher family and the Jimenez family wanted to use this opportunity to start a cooperation. After all, the two families couldn’t use marriage as a bond. So they could only strengthen their relationship like this.
Kenneth and Annabelle were so happy they couldn’t stop smiling. They praised Stephanie’s good qualities to everyone they
Others naturally agreed with them.
One said, “Ms. Hayes is multi–talented and worthy of your affection”
Another said, “I heard Mr. Fletcher transferred all his assets to Ms. Hayes. They haven’t even gotten married, yet he’s so

devoted to her. Who knows how spoiled she’ll be after getting married! The Jimenez family and the Fletcher family becoming relatives will naturally be even better”

Annabelle waved her hand. “We’re not recognizing Stephie for her talent, but because we hit it off at first sight. After that, Stephie even rescued Madeline during the explosion on the film set. You didn’t know about that, did you? Think about it. It was an explosion Everybody rushed out while Stephie ran in. How many people could do that while the fire burned their skin‘ It’s a blessing for our Jimenez family to recognize Stephie as family”
Hearing that, everyone couldn’t help but admire Stephanie. None of them thought the reunion party was for profit
At that moment, there was a commotion at the door. Megan walked into the banquet hall with Oliver and Gloria.
Oliver and Gloria were Selena’s parents. They lived abroad all year round, and only returned to the country during the Spring Festival to reunite with their in–laws and visit their grandchildren.
Gloria seemed a little unhappy today. Megan supported her as she walked toward Annabelle.
Gloria asked, “Annabelle, you already have so many grandchildren. Why do you want to acknowledge more?”
Annabelle wasn’t expecting her in–laws to have such an attitude. She replied, “More children bring more blessings. Besides, Stephie is worth it.
Gloria patted Megan’s hand and said, ‘Go chat with your friends. I wanna talk to your grandma.”
Everyone took the opportunity to leave as they felt the tension brewing.
They sat at the chief banquet table, and Gloria directly questioned, “Annabelle, what do your grandchildren think of you making such a great fanfare?”
Annabelle took a sip of coffee and replied, “They all agreed and they welcomed Stephie into the Jimenez family.”
Gloria asked, “What about Meg? She’s not a member of the Jimenez family. What will she think now that you’re ceremoniously recognizing Stephanie?”
Annabelle asked, “Did Meg say something?”
Gloria shook her head. “She didn’t say anything, but I can sense her loneliness, I know you’re all grateful to Stephanie for saving Madeline, but does she need to be thanked like this?”
Annabelle firmly said, “Gloria, we’re not recognizing Stephie just because she saved Madeline. At the birthday party before, 1 felt like she was familiar at first sight. Don’t you think her eyes are similar to Selena’s?”
Gloria instantly understood what she meant. She asked, “You wanna use Stephanie to replace the granddaughter you lost many years ago and find peace through that? Isn’t Meg enough?
Annabelle put the cup down and said, “Gloria, I don’t know why you’re so against this reunion, but today’s reunion party will progress.”
Gloria was also stubborn. She stood up and said, “Since you insist on having your own way, there’s no need for me to join.”
She looked at Oliver beside her and said, “Let’s go back. We won’t come back for the Spring Festival anymore. I don’t know how this Stephanie has the charm to bewitch all of you. She’s definitely a vixen.”
A voice rang out, “Hey! Who dares say that about our Stephie?”
Everyone looked over to see Ellen and the others walk over with sullen faces
It was like a battlebeld for all the old madams
