Chapter 1396 Extra: Aidan and Phoebe (71)
On Saturday, at a luxurious hotel in Golombia, Aidan and Ariana's engagement party was held.
There were many people attending the engagement party that day. After all, the Graves family and the Lowe family were not small families in Golombia, and many families who knew their true situation came to attend the banquet.
Evelyn and Dermot were both invited. Whether it was because Evelyn was Aidan's sister or because of the connections between the Kyte family and the Doyle family, it was only natural for the Lowe family to invite them.
At first, Evelyn didn't want to go. This kind of engagement party was meaningless, just a show for Sienna. Going would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was eventually persuaded by Dermot. After all, in this situation, it would seem a bit strange if she didn't go.
At the engagement party, Niall, accompanied by Lily, found Evelyn. He was still confused. "Wasn't Aidan involved with Phoebe? How did he suddenly get engaged to Ariana?"
Evelyn rolled her eyes at him and retorted, "Niall, what have you been doing lately? Your information is really out of date."
Aidan and Ariana had been in contact for quite some time. If Niall had paid even a little attention to Aidan, he wouldn't have asked such a question.
Niall felt a bit embarrassed and rubbed his nose awkwardly. "I just went abroad with Lily for a while. When I came back, I received Aidan's engagement invitation. Honestly, I'm very confused."
"In that case, just stay confused. It's better not to know." Evelyn didn't want Niall to get involved and potentially ruin Aidan's plan, which would be counterproductive.
Hearing this, Niall was displeased. "Evelyn, the way you say that, it's like you don't consider me your brother."
"Alright, Niall, just don't worry about it." Evelyn waved him off, "I'm serious. Even if you find out something, don't interfere. Everything is part of Aidan's plan, got it?"
She was really afraid that Niall would mess up Aidan's plan.
Seeing how serious she was, Niall didn't press further. "Alright, I get it. You and Aidan are always like this, doing everything quietly by yourselves and never telling me."
Evelyn was speechless. It was because they thought Niall was unreliable and telling him would only cause trouble. Moreover, they knew Niall was simple-minded and often didn't want him to get involved in dangerous situations.
As Evelyn and Aidan were talking, the engagement ceremony on stage had already begun. Aidan and Ariana stood together. To be honest, they did look like a perfect match.
However, Evelyn could tell that Aidan had no interest in Ariana. Although his eyes were on her, there was a coldness deep in his gaze.
Sienna said, "Thank you all for coming to Aidan's engagement party today. Besides the engagement, I have another important announcement to make. From today onwards, Aidan will be the Vice President of the Lowe Group. I hope everyone will support him in the future."
After saying this, the audience applauded, all offering their praise.
Sienna listened to the praises and looked at Aidan with increasing satisfaction. This was the son she had always wanted, excellent, capable, and able to gain everyone's approval.
In her eyes, Kurt was useless. He would just be a freeloader in the future. She had already arranged his life for the rest of his days.
At that moment, Kurt looked at Aidan on stage, unable to suppress his jealousy and hatred, thinking angrily, 'Why have I worked at the Lowe Group for so long and am still just a manager, with no one in the company respecting me, while Aidan joins as Vice President and receives so much recognition? It's unfair! I won't let it go like this!"
