Chapter 866
Nicole couldn't do anything about Hayden's sadness.
Colton and Evelyn's marriage had been published on the Internet. He also informed Nicole of the news. It was true.
Not many modifications could be made once their marriage was finalized. After all, the Gardner and Wrenn families
were both well-known and friendly with one another. As a result, it was impossible to dismiss it casually.
Nicole turned to check on her son. He hunched on the bed and his eyes down in disappointment. She didn't say
anything, instead turning around to depart gently.
Colton and Evelyn's marriage had been finalized shortly. The families agreed the engagement would be two weeks
later and the marriage certificate would be acquired following the engagement.
Anna met with Siobhan to talk about the engagement. Because the two families were not short on cash, they

quickly came to terms with it.
However, Anna was worried. She believed that the issue would not be resolved since Colton was stubborn. She still
had no idea what he was going to do.
The engagement had been set for two weeks later after the discussion. On the phone, Anna informed Colton of the
date. Surprisingly, he agreed without hesitation.
Wendy was astonished because she knew Colton was going to marry someone. She was even more startled to
learn that the bribe of her brother would be Evelyn.
In disbelief, she opened her eyes wide. "I assumed Colton was supposed to marry Nicole. I wasn't expecting him to
move on so quickly."
Anna smiled and patted Wendy on the head as she looked at Wendy. "Stop talking nonsense."
Wendy pouted and grunted dryly. Then, she had a question. "Mom, if Colton and Evelyn get married, what about
Hayden?" she questioned Anna.

Colton couldn't bring Hayden into the family because of the Wrenn Family's power.
Anna had considered it. So, she sighed and replied, "Nicole can raise Hayden. If Colton marries Evelyn, they should
go separate ways."
Wendy scowled as she was dissatisfied with the response. "It seems like Colton is a jerk," she grumbled.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Anna reprimanded Wendy as she glared at Wendy.
Wendy tactfully kept her mouth shut and didn't say anything else.
Evelyn was overjoyed all day after learning the news. Her wish finally came true. She would be married to Colton in
two weeks.
Thinking about that made her feel like she was living her best life.
Siobhan remained silent as she saw Evelyn's enjoyment. She approached Evelyn and told her, "Don't do something

radical now that Colton has consented to marry you. You are the sole owner of your life. Don't do anything silly in
the future."
Evelyn answered with a nod. "I can't believe I'm getting married to Colton. However, the engagement came a little
too soon. Mom, what dress should I wear for the occasion?"
The prospect of marriage was consuming Evelyn's thoughts.
Siobhan sighed as she observed Evelyn's happiness. Then, she added, "I have hired a few designers. They will visit
tomorrow and design an outfit based on your measurements."
Nicole was the chief designer at F&M Apparel, Evelyn remembered. So, she shook her head with a grin on her face.
"It's all right, Mom. I've got someone in mind to create an outfit for me."
Siobhan didn't say much as she looked at Evelyn's slightly pale face.
The Gardners and Goulds had been wary of Evelyn since her suicide attempt, fearful that she would do something
extreme again.
"Okay. The designers will arrive tomorrow. You should work with them and be completely prepared," Siobhan
explained.
"Okay." Evelyn's face lit up with a smile.
