Chapter 1661:
Suddenly, steady footsteps echoed from the entrance of the hotel, and all heads turned.
A man in a sharp black suit entered, with a dark tie knotted neatly at his collar. The shape of his Adam's apple
was just visible through the fabric.
There was something carved into his very posture. He had an aura of such unshakable authority that even a
casual glance from him made people instinctively still.
He didn’t need to speak to command the room. His presence alone did it.
Then his gaze landed on Corrine. In an instant, the cold edge in his eyes melted into warmth.
“Have you been waiting long?” he asked softly.
Corrine didn’t hesitate. She slipped her hand into Nate's, her cool fingers instantly wrapped in his warmth, the
sensation spreading quietly through her chest.
“No, | just got here,” she responded softly.
“Let's go.” Nate held her hand as they walked together into the banquet hall.
Behind them, Matias quietly handed over the wedding gifts at the reception desk.
And what a list it was—a property, a car, stacks of cash, antiques—basically, everything one could possibly

The staff member recording the gifts stared in disbelief, utterly stunned.
The bustling hall fell into sudden silence as Corrine and Nate entered. It seemed as if someone had pressed
pause on the entire scene. For a moment, titself seemed to stop. Then, whispers began to ripple quietly
through the crowd.
Every gaze turned toward the couple walking in from the entrance. People searched for words—yet even the
most eloquent among them struggled to describe what they saw.
The man was tall and commanding, his very presence dominating the room. He didn’t need to speak to assert
authority—his aura did that effortlessly. One glance was enough to make others step aside.
The woman beside him was no less remarkable. Her beauty was bold and luminous, utterly different from the
modest charm typically seen in the daughters of wealthy families.

She was breathtaking, the kind of stunning that could stop hearts mid-beat.
Though she wore heels, she still appeared delicate next to the man. Yet her presence was never overshadowed.
Together, they embodied a rare harmony of strength and grace.
Still holding Nate's hand, Corrine walked with quiet poise to the main table and took her seat. That single act
was enough for everyone in the room to realize her identity.
She was Carl’s mysterious and cherished granddaughter. It wasn’t difficult to guess who the man beside her was
either.
