The Amazing son in law Chapter 1985
Upon hearing what my sister said, Fitz confidently patted his chest and replied, “Don’t worry, I will do my best to cooperate with you after I go back!”
Zara smiled in satisfaction, just as two men and two women entered the main hall.
It was Orrin’s family of three, along with the second child, Hank.
As Stefanie walked in, Fitz felt a wave of nervousness, and his palms began to sweat.
Zara noticed his unease and quickly nudged him with her finger, giving him an encouraging look. She immediately stood up, beaming, and greeted the newcomers: “Uncle Orrin, Angie, and Stefanie, hello! I hope I’m not interrupting, and I wish you a happy New Year in advance!”
After her greeting, she promptly retrieved a long gift box and handed it to Angie, saying: “Angie, this is a New Year’s gift for you and Uncle Orrin!”
Recognizing that Zara had spoken first, Angie smiled warmly and responded, “Oh, it’s Zara, right? I haven’t seen you in years! You’re looking more beautiful than ever!” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ find~novel~net
Zara graciously replied, “Auntie Angie, you flatter me! If we’re talking about beauty, my sister Stefanie is far more stunning!”
Angie chuckled, “You’re too polite, dear. Why bring gifts when visiting someone’s home?”
Zara insisted, “Oh, Angie, it’s not an extravagant gift. It’s a painting by Picasso from his lifetime.”
Angie looked at her earnestly and said, “Zara, this is far too generous. My aunt really can’t accept it.”
Zara quickly reassured her, “Please, Angie, don’t be so formal! Honestly, the painting isn’t worth much; it’s really just a heartfelt gesture.”
Feeling the need to shift the subject, she introduced Fitz, who was still feeling a bit out of place: “By the way, Angie and Uncle Orrin, this is my brother, Fitz! Sister Stefanie and Fitz should be familiar with each other, right?”
Stefanie nodded lightly, saying, “Yes, I’ve met Mr. Banks a few times.”
Orrin observed that Fitz bore a striking resemblance to Zayne, which caused a flicker of discontent within him.
With a smile plastered on his face, he remarked, “To be honest, the Banks family hasn’t visited in the past decade. I’m curious why you two decided to come to my home?”
Zara quickly explained, “Uncle Orrin, my brother owns a cosmetics company and aims to boost brand awareness this year. Since he’s a fan of Stefanie and knows she’s about to embark on a concert tour, we thought it would be a great opportunity to collaborate and have my brother sponsor Stefanie’s concert…”
Orrin was taken aback. Initially, he assumed Zara and Fitz had come to discuss some significant family-level collaboration on behalf of the Banks Family. However, he soon realized they were merely interested in discussing a small concert in Aurous Hill.
Feeling somewhat relieved that he wouldn’t have to get involved in a bigger issue, he casually said, “You can speak directly with Stefanie about this. I typically don’t interfere with such matters.”
Zara nodded and turned to Stefanie, asking, “Sister Stefanie, what do you think about this?”
Stefanie, however, wasn’t particularly interested. She wasn’t in the entertainment business purely for monetary gain, unlike many of her peers who prioritized financial incentives in their decisions.
For many female celebrities, the focus lay solely on financial compensation for participating in variety shows, promotional activities, or choosing which songs or films to engage with based on the paycheck.
