Engagement Gift (Ch.71)

"If only our Fiona has achieved nearly as much at 25 as Kaylani has achieved at 21." Mrs Preston said, passing a glare to her daughter.

"Mom!" Fiona exclaimed.

"Don't pay your mother any heed Fiona, you are an excellent young lady. Why else would we all be gathered here if you weren't?" Christian Myron interrupted.

"You see Mom? Mr Myron gets me. The Myrons are such a lovable family, I can't wait to marry Kel." Fiona replied with a bright smile

Kaylani coughed, nearly choking on the wine she had just sipped from as she lifted her gaze to Fiona Preston in surprise and then turned to Killian.

"Married? Killian is getting married?" Kaylani asked in surprise, 

Killian's hand reached out to pat Kaylani's back in concern before his hand dropped to interlock with Kaylani's hand.

"He didn't tell you?" Fiona asked in a tone of hurt.

"Why am I just hearing about this?" Kaylani asked, her gaze still fixed on a guilty looking Killian.
