Henry Hirayama greeted Rona Muir with a cheerful smile. "It's an honor to have my cousin's wife here."
Perhaps out of respect for Rona Muir, everyone who could speak Chinese made an effort to do so.
"It's my cousin's wedding, of course we'd come back. After all, we're family." Rona Muir emphasized the word "family" and gave Amy Inoue a meaningful look.
Trying to play house politics with me?
I'm a master at business battles!
Your little tricks aren't even worth noticing!
"Jiro is lucky to have you as his wife." Henry Hirayama also glanced at Amy Inoue.
The engagement between Amy Inoue and Jiro Hirayama was never a secret.
If Jiro Hirayama hadn't been so clueless—still a virgin at twenty-five—Amy Inoue wouldn't have turned to Henry Hirayama.
Luckily, there was nothing serious between them, so Amy Inoue could marry Henry Hirayama. Otherwise, things would've been much messier.
Rona Muir gently stroked her belly and said, "Yes, I’m also very lucky. Now our family of three—this is exactly what I hoped for."
Amy Inoue’s expression became a little unnatural. She said, "Henry, let’s go check on how the other preparations are going. Rona’s expecting, she should get some rest."
When Amy Inoue said the words 'expecting,' she practically gritted her teeth.
She suddenly hated herself for speaking Chinese!
"Alright, we’ll take our leave then." Henry Hirayama gave Amy Inoue a meaningful look, then turned to Rona Muir and said, "My parents would like to invite you and Jiro to our home for dinner. Would you honor us?"
Rona Muir smiled, "I don’t mind at all—it depends if Jiro has time."
"Alright, understood." Henry Hirayama left immediately with Amy Inoue.
Watching their backs as they left, Rona Muir couldn’t help but feel there was something off about their relationship.
Henry Hirayama didn’t seem like a fool.
Was his marriage to Amy Inoue really out of love?
Forget it, other people’s business—better not get too involved.
Rona Muir tidied up a bit and went to find Jiro Hirayama.
When Jiro Hirayama heard Henry’s family had invited him over, he refused right away: "Not going."
He’d always been this unconventional, and the Hirayama family was used to it by now.
If he said he wasn’t going, then he wasn’t going.
There was never any room for negotiation.
Rona Muir didn’t argue with him.
After all, in Japan, this was Jiro Hirayama’s turf.
As his wife, she naturally stood by her husband, come what may.
While Rona Muir and Jiro Hirayama attended the wedding, Cecilia Gu finally had a private meeting with Mrs. Kerr.
