Chapter 181 A Warning

• With the majority of the plans methodically laid out, I remitted the management of the charity ball to Cara, sparing myself the intricacies of involvement. Instead, my focus sharpened on the wedding and the preparations for the arrival of our child in Blue Valley.
• An invitation to a dinner at my parents' residence arrived, intended to straighten out the details of the wedding, a prospect that rendered Paul visibly uncomfortable.
• Uncle Frederick, in his characteristic assertiveness, insisted that I caution Paul to exhibit his utmost good manners, particularly given his perceived lack of momentary contribution to the orphanage project.
