Chapter 170
After Vincent finished tidying up. Stephanie pushed the wheelchair over.
Mr. Fletcher, please sit down”
Seeing her naughty face, Vincent felt much better.
He raised his hand and stroked her cheek. “Thank you for trusting me, and thank you for accompanying me.”
“We are a couple. Isn’t that what I should do?” said Stephanie.
Vincent held her in his armis and felt extremely moved.
After a long time, Stephanie patted Vincent on his back. “Well, if we don’t go back to the banquet hall now, people will really think that you have slept with that evil woman.
Vincent chuckled. I’m not powerless and weak. I’m stronger than you think!”
Stephanie withdrew from Vincent’s embrace, “I thought you were a pig”
Vincent rubbed her nose. “I’m not a pig”
Stephanie tutted, “Didn’t you just compare yourself to a pig!”
Only then did Vincent remember what he said just now.
He really made a fool of himself.
Stephanie patted the wheelchair and said, “Come on, Mr. Fletcher. I’m going to take the pig back to the banquet hall. Otherwise, everyone would think that there will be a dish called roast pig later.”
Vincent was lost for words.
Stephanie pushed Vincent back to the banquet hall.
Seeing that Vincent looked normal and didn’t seem to have been set up, everyone thought Megan was talking nonsense.
But Vincent didn’t show up at that time. He must have dealt with some tricky problems.
The reunion party was still going on after Megan was taken away.
Stephanie proposed a toast to Kenneth, Annabelle, Sebastian, and Selena.
Originally, they intended to admit Stephanie as their god–granddaughter and goddaughter. Unexpectedly, Stephanie was their biological granddaughter and daughter.
The Jimenez family put aside the reasons why their child was wrongly identified first. Tonight, they were only happy that their daughter, who had been lost for many years, finally returned home.
Holding Stephanie in her arms, Selena could no longer suppress the excitement and sorrow in her heart. She cried about how difficult it had been for Stephanie for so many years.
Stephanie consoled, “If the Hayes family had been nice to me, I wouldn’t be who I am today. I went abroad at the age of fourteen to learn a lot of skills. It was also my happiest period of time. Although I’m not that excellent, I have made a small achievement.
Selena shook her head. I would rather you didn’t have so manu !
stephanie’s eyes turned red She had been away from the Jimenez family for twenty–two years!
She let Selena hold her and cry. Finally, she had a family. The sense of belonging was unprecedented.
After a while. Madeline came to them and said, “Mom, you’ve been hugging my sister for a long time. Can I give her a hug?”
Selena sighed and let go of Stephanie Thaven’t hugged her enough!”
Madeline blinked “Stephie, stay here tonight. Shall we sleep together?”
Stephanie subconsciously looked at Vincent, who was chatting with Matthew. Vincent actually needed comfort tonight, but she couldn’t refuse her mother and sister. God knew how long she had been eager for this family affection.
Madeline tuted lightly, “When Vincent was Mr. Fletcher before, I was a little afraid of him. But now that I know he is my future brother–in–law, I am not afraid of him at once! I’ll talk to him later.”
Stephanie chuckled “Madeline, you changed your attitude so quickly.
Madeline slightly raised her chin and said with a little pride, “You bet! Stephie, you should address me more intimately in
the future.
Stephanie smiled and said, “Okay”
At that moment, Gloria and Oliver came over.
Gloria cleared her throat. “Stephie, don’t blame me for being harsh just now. After all, I watched Megan grow up. How could I expect that she was so vicious?
Oliver snorted, “I didn’t let you talk nonsense just now, and you insisted on it. Now what will Stephanie think about it?” Gloria looked embarrassed. “But I didn’t know that Stephie was our biological granddaughter! I just heard that you have suffered so much these years, which made me feel uncomfortable. Stephanie, will you forgive me? I was also fooled by Megan!
Stephanie understood how Gloria felt. To be honest, she was a little envious of Megan for being defended by her family like
this.
She nodded. ‘”Grandma.”
Gloria burst into tears after hearing it.
She apologized, “I’m sorry for what happened just now!”
Oliver curled his lips. “Do you think an apology is enough? You were like losing your mind just now!”
Gloria was wrong about this matter and could only let others criticize her.
Annabelle asked the waiter to bring two glasses of wine. “You two didn’t toast just now. Now my granddaughter has forgiven you. You deserve this! Stephie, toast to your confused grandma and grandpa.”
Oliver frowned and said, Tm not confused
Annabelle tutted. “You are not confused? Then why didn’t you say something for a long time?”
Oliver twitched the corner of his mouth. “You don’t know Gloria very well. If I talk too much, I will be beaten when I go back. The key is that you can deal with her, so I have to avoid her
Madeline laughed out loud, “Grandpa, you really have no family status

Oliver sighed. “Even Bobby has a higher status than me.”
Madeline was afraid that Stephanie wouldn’t understand, so she hurriedly explained, “Bobby is a dog raised by Grandma.”
Stephanie pursed her lips and smiled. She picked up the glass to toast to Gloria and Oliver, “Grandma, Grandpa, cheers.”
Gloria nodded repeatedly, quickly picked up the glass, and gulped it down, for fear that she couldn’t drink this glass of wine.
So did Oliver. He also sighed after drinking. This glass of wine is twenty–two years late!”
Kenneth came over and patted him on the shoulder. “You’re lucky that we’ll still drink it in our lifetime! The Hayes family is unforgivable!
“Yes, we will never let them go!” said Oliver.
Kenneth nodded. “Oliver, we’ve known each other for decades, and I think you are the most manly at this moment.”
Oliver was speechless.
Gloria came to Stephanie and asked, ‘Stephie, is your fiancé in a wheelchair?”
Annabelle glared at her. “Gloria, it’s none of your business, right?”
I didn’t say anything! I just want to care about my granddaughter’s relationship. Stephie is the daughter of the Jimenez family said Gloria.
Annabelle snorted, “Stephie has always relied on herself, not the family.”
Gloria cleared her throat. I’m afraid that this disability will affect their married life somewhat, so I just care about it.”
Stephanie smiled and looked at Vincent. “No matter how many titles I have, I am Vincent’s woman. I forgot to tell you that Vincent and I married a long time ago. There will be no divorce but only widowhood.”
Everyone was stunned.
Vincent, who felt Stephanie’s burning gaze, also looked over at that moment.
He raised his lips slightly, and his eyes seemed to be shining with stars, which made the world lose its color.
Matthew shook the goblet. “So, when are you going to stop using a wheelchair?”
“Now!”
Vincent handed the glass to him, stood up slowly, and walked towards Stephanie with his slender legs.
