Chapter 863
Chapter 863:
“There’s no need to hurry things. Yelena is still young. We should take our time to ensure she finds the right partner,” Katelyn remarked. Having endured a difficult marriage, Katelyn was intent on preventing a hasty matrimonial commitment among the younger family members. She knew all too well the potential lifelong consequences of an ill-considered union. Her own experiences had galvanized her desire to guide the family’s youth more wisely.
Elianna looked toward Katelyn with a frown, irritated by the changes she had perceived in Katelyn since she had moved in with Callum and his family. Elianna found herself increasingly unable to agree with Katelyn’s perspectives.
At that moment, Sebastian burst into the room, his expression filled with alarm, as though he had witnessed something shocking.
“Mrs. Harris, someone has arrived to discuss a marriage proposal,” Sebastian announced, catching his breath.
“A marriage proposal?” Elianna’s tone escalated sharply. “For whom is this proposal intended p>
Bella clutched the tablecloth tightly, her body shaking with fear. She was truly terrified at that moment.
Elianna’s brows furrowed deeply. If these people were here to ask for Yelena’s hand in marriage, she would definitely give her approval. However, if they were being shameless and had come for Bella instead, that would be a real problem.
The Harris family all wore different expressions. Everyone seemed lost in their own thoughts and hadn’t reacted when they heard Yelena’s name.
“Let them in p>
“Don’t let them in!” Bella exclaimed urgently. Bella shot a glance at Yelena, sensing that her reaction was a bit too swift, and felt a bit uneasy. However, Sebastian still followed Yelena’s instructions and turned back towards the door.

Bella’s expression darkened. She felt that Sebastian was truly a snob. Yelena had only been back with the Harris family for a few months, yet he was already following her every command, obeying her without question as though he had no mind of his own.
Cayson looked at Yelena, his brows furrowing slightly. “Yelena, why did you let them in p>
At that moment, Sebastian entered, leading a group of people inside. The unfamiliar group entered, carrying bags and boxes that appeared high-end and expensive.
Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but wonder who exactly was behind these extravagant gifts. If it really was that rural family from Kheley, they were certainly going all out to impress the Harris family’s daughter.
Bella’s brows furrowed even tighter. She was certain that Callum and the others wouldn’t be pleased with this suitor taking Yelena’s hand, which meant they would most likely try to push that man onto her instead. However, there was no way she would let that happen.
Bella glanced around, searching for a chance to slip away unnoticed. At that moment, Cayson asked, “Which daughter of the Harris family are you here to propose to p>
Cayson was betting on whether there were other possibilities. Bella’s throat tightened as a wave of hatred for Cayson washed over her. She couldn’t believe that, in his effort to protect his biological sister, he was completely disregarding her—a sister who had been there for him all these years.
Bella said through gritted teeth, “Cayson, Yelena was the one who went on a blind date with their son today. So, naturally, they’re here to propose to her p>
