Chapter 50: The Engagement Day

(Olivia’s POV)

Days passed amid the endless autumn rain before the sky finally cleared on the day of my engagement. The morning sun cast a golden glow through the windows of the

Winters Family Estate, bringing with it a sense of promise and new beginnings.

“Today is Olivia’s big day, and everyone in the Winters Family woke up early,” I heard

Agatha Turner, our loyal housekeeper, announce cheerfully as she bustled through the hallways.

Even little Grace, my half–sister who usually loved to sleep in, had risen with the sun.

She raced through the corridors in a festive red dress, her childish excitement

echoing off the walls.

“Sister’s getting engaged today! Sister’s getting engaged today!” Grace chanted,

spinning in circles until she nearly toppled over.

Inside my bedroom at the estate, a team of professional stylists busied themselves

around me. Mirrors reflected my transformation as they worked their magic, turning

me from Olivia Winters, independent lawyer, into a bride–to–be.

I wore a soft pink gown with delicate embroidery that caught the light with every

movement. My honey–brown hair had been elegantly coiled into a bun, adorned with

pearl pins that complemented my amber eyes.

“Just a touch more blush,” the makeup artist murmured, adding the finishing touches

to enhance my porcelain complexion.

Grace slipped into the room, resting her little face on the vanity. Her eyes widened with wonder as she gazed at me admiringly.

“Sister, you look so pretty today,” she breathed, her voice filled with awe.

I smiled gently and pinched her cheek. “Thank you, little one.”

Unexpectedly, Grace’s bright eyes clouded with worry. Her lower lip jutted out in a

pout that I’d come to recognize as the prelude to serious questions.

“Sister, after you get married, will you still come home often?” she asked, her voice

small and uncertain.

The innocent question caught me off guard. A bittersweet pang shot through my heart as I realized how much this child had come to care for me, despite our complicated family history.

I smiled softly, my voice tinged with tenderness. “Of course, the Rivers territory is so close, I can come back every day.”

But Grace was sharp for her age. She frowned, seeing through my gentle lie

immediately.

“Hmph, you’re lying. You don’t even come home every day now. After marrying

Connor, you definitely won’t.” Her lower lip trembled slightly, threatening tears.

Suppressing a laugh at her perceptiveness, I patiently coaxed my half–sister. “Sister

has work at the law center, so I can’t come back daily now.”

Grace remained unconvinced. She stubbornly stretched out her pinky finger, her

expression deadly serious.

“Pinky promise, you must come home every day to see me.”

My smile deepened with helpless affection. How could I resist this pure–hearted child

who wanted nothing more than my presence?

I extended my pinky, offering a compromise. “I can’t promise every day, but whenever

I’m free, I’ll come visit you, often.”

Grace’s little face brightened instantly, sunshine breaking through storm clouds.

“Okay!”

As our pinkies hooked together in solemn promise, a sweet smile blossomed on my

face. In that moment, all my anxieties about the impending ceremony melted away.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the Winters Family Estate, my father Richard Winters and

his wife Natalie had dressed meticulously for the occasion. They waited in the living

room, my father’s face bearing a rare broad smile.

Through the open door, I could hear him welcoming Connor, who had arrived early to

personally escort me.
