Kris Cooper walked in carrying his laptop bag and saw her sighing with her eyebrows furrowed. He reached out to pat her small head.
"What’s wrong, sighing so much."
"Nothing, really, I’m just worried that when we worry, I won’t have any red envelopes to collect!" the little girl laughed at herself as she stood up and took his laptop bag. "You’re done so quickly?"
"I was afraid our riana Ridley would be lonely at ho, so I ca back to work."
Kris Cooper reached for the A4 paper on the table, glanced at the nas on it, and imdiately guessed her thoughts. His gaze fell on the na Nathan Leafcastle, and he frowned slightly.
"Honey!" Vera Wave hugged his arm, "I invited Brother Nathan to the party, you don’t mind, right?"
The little girl’s bright black eyes looked at him, full of expectation.
He was her only honored guest, and if he refused, she really wouldn’t have a single guest, which was heartbreaking to think about.
Thinking of this, he lovingly smiled.
"Of course, you can. Besides, you can also invite Isla, rlin... what’s that na, Wang Xiao..."
"Wang Xiaoya?!"
"Yes, and everyone from your Dream Team can co too! And Kate and the others, aren’t they all your guests?"
"Isn’t Kate not considered my guest?"
"Of course she counts as your guest. At her level, I certainly wouldn’t invite her."
Of course, Kris Cooper was just saying this deliberately. Kate had a good relationship with his parents and was naturally a necessary guest.
The little girl’s eyes flashed with brilliance.
"According to you, should I invite the whole Advertising Departnt?!"
"It’s a Western-style banquet anyway, the more the rrier."
"Okay, then I’ll invite them all together?"
"Yes!" The man nodded dotingly, "When the ti cos, you just need to give the list to Tommy Taylor."
"Then I’ll make a call now." Vera Wave imdiately grabbed her phone and dialed Nathan Leafcastle’s number. "Brother Nathan, it’s . Do you have ti next Friday?"
"What’s up?"
"Kris and I are planning a betrothal banquet."
"Is that so?" On the other end of the line, Nathan Leafcastle’s gaze sank, but he kept a brisk tone, "Great, I will definitely attend."
"Don’t forget to bring your sister-in-law and aunt!" Vera said with a smile.
"Don’t worry, I’ll bring Sally and my mom along."
"Alright then, I will send the invitations over then."
Vera hung up the phone, and Nathan Leafcastle put down his phone. Across from him, Liliana Davis, who was making dumplings with him and Sally Dalton, looked up.
"What’s going on?!"
"Vera’s betrothal banquet, she’s inviting us to attend."
Nathan Leafcastle answered crisply. Sally Dalton and Liliana Davis, upon hearing this, both had a change in the look in their eyes.
Sally Dalton set down the dumpling she had just wrapped, and her gaze landed on Liliana Davis’s face, silently questioning.
Liliana Davis glanced at Sally Dalton, "Sally, I suddenly rembered I might have left the window open upstairs. Can you help close it?"
Finding an excuse to send Sally Dalton away, Liliana Davis spoke in a low voice, "Little Nathan, we better not go."
"Why?" Nathan Leafcastle asked, puzzled.
"Shouldn’t you consider Sally’s feelings?"
"This..." Nathan Leafcastle frowned, "I thought Sally and Vera got along quite well. And besides, you know, we were the ones who invited Vera first last ti. If we don’t go now that she’s inviting us back, it would seem unreasonable."
