Chapter 188: Chapter 188: The Frustrating Feeling of a Man When His Pet Dog Cozily Wags Its Tail at Strangers

Delphine turned her gaze to Ignatius Leclair, seeing the man looking down at reports from various departments, his handsome brows slightly furrowed, revealing no hint of emotion.

She frowned slightly, reluctant to approach him. When this man doesn’t smile, there’s an intimidating coldness about him, stay too long and you might get frostbite.

"I am currently in the rising phase of my career. If I stay at home on holiday all the time, all the previous efforts would be wasted," she said blandly, "Once this matter has calmed down, I’ll go out to work."

Assistant Maximilian coughed softly, looking troubled, this was out of his control.

"In a couple of days, Bessie Leclair is getting engaged, the Leclair Family is in the spotlight, you should stay home and rest for a few days," Ignatius Leclair suddenly spoke in a low voice, lifting his head from the pile of dull reports, his gaze as deep as an ancient pool.

Delphine sensed something unusual, thinking of the Leclair Family’s alliance with the Yeager Family, it was bound to stir up a storm in the South Seas, combined with Stone Leclair’s imminent election, she fell silent for a moment.

At such a critical moment, the people of the Leclair Family were probably more low-key than ever before, even her actions were restricted.

Delphine bit her lip and asked blandly, "Why is the engagement so rushed, can her parents make it back in time?"

Ignatius Leclair glanced at her, his long phoenix eyes seemed to have a hidden light flashing through them, and he beckoned her over.

Delphine was taken aback for a moment, took a couple of steps forward, her hand was grasped by the man’s broad palm and pulled onto the sofa.

Ignatius Leclair smelled the familiar fragrance in her hair, thinking of how she had earlier held Leah’s hand like a little puppy, sending Leah out, he felt a sense of heartache like his own little puppy wagging its tail to get close to outsiders. Now, having his own person by his side made him feel more comfortable.

"Bessie Leclair set the date herself. In such a rush, not to mention the third uncle and third aunt not being able to make it back, even the old master can’t make it back, but fortunately, the wedding is set for next Spring Festival, we’ll organize it well then," Ignatius Leclair explained blandly. Bessie wanting to avoid dragging it out too long and deciding to get engaged first isn’t exactly foolish.

Delphine secretly sighed in relief when she heard the elders couldn’t make it back. If the old master of the Leclair Family came back and found out about her relationship with Ignatius Leclair, she feared she would be beaten half to death and thrown out of the Leclair residence.

"You should also go to the engagement party," Ignatius Leclair’s phoenix eyes slightly lifted, seeing through her thoughts, he said slowly, "As for what gift to give, you can choose from the collection room yourself."

Delphine had heard housekeeper Li say that the treasures in the collection rooms of the Emerald Lake Villa were Ignatius Leclair’s personal collection, considered as his favorites.

She wasn’t well-versed in collections, but she knew that what Ignatius Leclair collected were all top-notch.

Giving a gift from there would be appropriate.

"Okay." She lowered her eyes, said blandly, her long curled eyelashes trembling lightly, like a butterfly about to take flight.

Bessie Leclair wouldn’t likely make a scene at her own engagement party, after all, soldiers come to block the water, cover with earth.

After the live stream incident, the official announcement was that Delphine was startled during the live stream and was planning to move, and wouldn’t be appearing in public for some time.

As soon as the announcement came out, the fans whimpered, wishing they could berate the crazy male fan Mr. Leclair, no longer caring about the man in the live stream. Their idol has retreated again, not acting, not attending events, not even endorsements.

The fans’ inner feelings were like a thousand alpacas running through, angrily refreshing the movie "Twin Flowers" multiple times.

The online trolls also disappeared without a trace, those with sharp eyes sensed something unusual.

Delphine was unaware of this, with the Leclair Family in the spotlight, she was forced to stay out of the public eye at home.

After a couple of days, Bessie Leclair’s engagement banquet finally arrived.
