Meeting You Was Fate

Shyla looked drop dead gorgeous today. She was donned in an off shoulder red dress with a nipped-in waist design. Her makeup was on point. Her hair hung loose in lazy beach waves. She looked exotic and sultry.

"Hello, Uncle, Auntie. Hello, Ethon!" Shyla noticed people at once, and naturally she greeted Ethon the moment she saw him.

"Oh, look at you my princess! You look ravishing!" Monica complimented Shyla with a kind smile and took her hand.

Ethon just stood there without shifting. He did not seem to be impatient and chose to be silent.

"Thank you so much, Auntie, for the praise. You look magnificent in the cheongsam. The golden embroidery suits you so beautifully!" Shyla said coyly in order to please Monica.

In fact, at the end of the day, they both wanted the same thing. Monica wanted her son to become renowned and successful in the coming times. If Ethon and Shyla could be engaged in holy matrimony, the result would be endless wealth and power for him. Even though the Yu Family itself was respectable and wealthy, Monica wanted to marry her son off into a wealthier family. So Monica was extremely happy with Shyla.

Fiona, on the other hand, was out of the question. She was poor and humble. If any kind of union happened between Ethon and Fiona, Monica would be enraged.

"I think I will go over there for a walk," Ethon said suddenly. He did not like staying there any longer. So, the minute he saw Nathan and Mandy enter the hall, he grabbed the opportunity to escape.

"Hey, Ethon, what do you mean? Where will you go? Shyla just came over to greet us, and you want to leave? Is this some deliberate attempt? What happened to the gentleman in you?" Monica tugged at Ethon's arm as she complained.

"Mom you misunderstood me. I just want to speak to Nathan. Look he is here," Ethon said convincingly. He did not want to anger Monica there.
