Walking through the hall, Bell soon saw her grandparents and maternal grandfather, who were busy at work.

The engagement ceremony will officially begin at 11 a. m., and it is currently 8 a. m., with everyone making final checks.

Upon seeing Bell and Shanna, everyone immediately put down what they were doing and quickly gathered around.

After exchanging pleasantries with the four elderly people for a while, Bell finally met his restless aunt in a bedroom on the second floor of the villa.

"My dear Bell and Shanna, it's been so long! What have I been feeding you? How have you grown so fast?"

Helena warmly embraced the Bell siblings, then looked at her nephew and niece with a look of surprise.

If she remembered correctly, these two kids are only 15 and 13 years old this year, right? How come they're both taller than her?

She hadn't noticed this during the previous video.

She decided that after she finished her work today, she would ask her older sister for advice on feeding a child, so that she and Grandio could feed their child the same way!

"Ha! You believe it or not, these two little devils can eat you out of house and home!"

Elena rolled her eyes at her sister.

If Bell and Shanna weren't her children, whom she had watched grow up, she would have believed it even if someone said they had some kind of Magical Animals bloodline that could eat a lot.

"No way?"

Helena suspected that her older sister was misleading her.

After all, she was her older sister. Helena believed that no one in the world knew her sister's outrageousness better than she did.

I looked my nephew and niece up and down again. No matter how I looked at them, the two little ones were very well-proportioned and not fat at all.

Fortunately, Elena had no idea what her mother and sister were saying about her, otherwise, with her outrageous... cough cough, I mean, her fiery temper, she might have even blown up the engagement party.

"Auntie, if you're interested, I'll tell you later about how to use Magic Power Enhancement your body and improve digestion."

"Hey Auntie, isn't your makeup a bit too heavy?"

Seeing her aunt still reluctant to put down her makeup even while talking, Bell thought that if the aunt kept putting on makeup, she might be able to attend a Halloween party.

"Huh!? R-Really!?"

Helena rushed to the dressing mirror and stared nervously at her reflection.

"You, it's just an engagement, what's there to be nervous about? Sit down, I'll help you."

With her hands on her sister's shoulders, Elena pushed her into a chair, then skillfully picked up various makeup tools and began working on her sister's face.

"Sister, are you sure you can do it? Today's ceremony is very important to me."

Helena harbored 100% distrust of her own sister.

"Shut up! One more word and I'll turn you into a clown!"

Elena was furious!

Did all these people plan this together or something? Why are they all deliberately making things difficult for her?!

Leaving Shanna to play with her mother and aunt, Bell found an empty room and rested on the bed for a while.

"Gege! Get up! Mom's calling us over; she says Auntie's fiancé and his family have arrived."

In a daze, Bell heard her younger sister calling her.

"Puff--!"

The moment he opened his eyes, Bell couldn't help but spit it out.

At this moment, Shanna's face was covered in red, white, and black patches, and even her hair was covered with a lot of white powder of unknown origin.

"What happened?"

If Bell hadn't sensed nothing unusual, she would have thought her little sister had just been through a fierce battle.

"What? Oh, you mean this? This is my makeup. How is it, Gege? Is it okay?"

Noticing the focus of her Gege's gaze, Shanna finally realized what Gege was talking about.

The little girl, wearing makeup for the first time, looked at her older Gege with great anticipation, hoping to receive Gege praise.

Although she always felt something was off when she looked in the mirror, her mother and aunt both said her makeup looked good, so she was still a little bit proud.

Unbeknownst to the innocent Little Shanna, as she happily ran out of her aunt's bedroom to find her Gege, suppressed laughter echoed from the room behind her.

Heaven knows how hard Elena and Helena were trying to hold back their laughter; they almost suffered internal injuries from holding it in.

"Ahem, Shanna, what do you think, my Gege sister? She's naturally beautiful and doesn't need heavy makeup. Otherwise, it would just hide her natural beauty."

How about this, next time I'll talk to Hermione and ask her to teach me how to apply light makeup, okay?

Fortunately, Shanna came to find him first; otherwise, if the little girl had run out looking like this, who knows what kind of trouble she might have caused.

So my own mother is really unreliable.

And my aunt too. She said she really valued this engagement ceremony, but before the ceremony even started, she started sabotaging it.

They really are sisters!

"Huh? You're going to learn from Hermione... no, from my sister-in-law? Maybe I should just forget it. I'll just stop wearing makeup altogether."

Shanna felt genuinely averse to the idea of learning from Hermione.

You know, for so long, Hermione has always been the one learning from her, and now that it's the other way around, she just feels awkward no matter how she thinks about it.

"No. Whether you want to wear makeup after learning it is your choice, but you still need to learn it."

Just kidding, what if his younger sister gets tricked by their mother again next time he's not around? So it's still necessary to master the basic knowledge.

Bell reached out and wiped Shanna's face, removing the girl's unconventional makeup.

After quickly washing their faces, the brother and sister went downstairs.

It's 10 o'clock now, and Justin and his family arrived at the venue an hour early.

In fact, Justin's family was both happy and somewhat ashamed about the marriage.

After all, the gap between his family and the woman's family was quite large, which could be seen from the fact that the engagement ceremony venue was prepared by the woman's family.

Of course, the Justin family had no intention of marrying into wealth. Although they were of Half-blood, Justin's surname could be traced back to the time when wizards first arrived in the North American Continent. They still had their principles.

Entering the preparation room at the back of the hall, Bell found several more people in the room. If he wasn't mistaken, they were probably his future uncle's family.

"Bell, Shanna, you two are finally here. Come here, let me introduce you."

Upon seeing Bell and his companion, Helena greeted them excitedly.

She desperately wanted to introduce her family members to her future husband.
