Meanwhile, Cheryl's friends gathered around as well after they saw Cheryl walking over.They were all filled with jealousy after they saw Celena's white wedding dress and gorgeous face. They then followed Cheryl and mocked Celena."Gosh! Look who this is! Isn't she Celena, the woman who was once banished from the Stone family after she had a bastard child with a random guy? Why is she wearing a wedding dress?""What other reasons could there be? Some loser must have taken her in. Hahaha.""What a joke! I wonder who that is. He must have a big heart since he has the guts to want such a woman.""Gosh. Celena is even wearing a wedding dress. I can't believe she could afford to buy a wedding dress. The quality doesn't look much.""Hmph. How could she and that loser Liam afford a decent dress? This must be some cheap dress they bought online."Those women were deliberately putting Celena down. However, they were curious deep down what was the brand of Celena's dress. The dress made h
"But, this is the right place—" Celena muttered.She felt wronged to be criticized by so many people around her. She was going to explain, but the criticisms got even more intense.Meanwhile, more and more people noticed her. The relatives of the Stone family and also the Wasyl family noticed the commotion on this end and gathered around.After they found out what happened, the way they looked at Celena changed. Their gaze was incredibly disdainful.The Stone family members, especially, became upset as soon as they saw Celena and started barking at her."What are you doing here, Celena? Where's that loser Liam?""Why did you come here, Celena? Are you having your replacement wedding with Liam today? What are you doing here instead of holding your wedding?""How strange. Why do I only see Celena? Where's Liam? Aren't they having a wedding as well today? It can't just be Celena alone, right?""Who knows? Maybe Liam didn't have the guts to come. Look at how grand the wedding is th
Celena felt wronged. Tears were welled up in her eyes, and she bit her lips so hard that they were a little pale.Right as the crowd kept gossiping while pointing at Celena, the door of the Sunflower Hotel was suddenly opened. Dozens of hotel staff members in the same uniform came walking out.Then, a few staff carrying a roll of red carpet started setting it up at the entrance.What surprised everybody was that it was not a simple red carpet. It was embroidered with gold thread, which was dazzling under the sunlight. Immediately after that, a huge advertisement banner rolled down from the top floor of Sunflower Hotel. It was a massive wedding photo.Everybody was stunned that the people in the wedding photo were Liam and Celena.That was not all. Pink balloons were hung up on the wall outside the hotel. Every balloon had a photo hanging at the bottom of it, and all of them were photos of Liam and Celena.At the same time, the staff quickly pushed out an arch made from fresh fl
Wasyl lost to Liam and Celena. That made him feel incredibly furious.Was that not a joke? He was the heir of the Abbott Group. Who the hell was Liam?Liam was nothing more than a loser who married into the Stone family. How could he possibly be the mysterious big shot who reserved the Sunflower Hotel?That was impossible! It was impossible that the loser Liam was the one who reserved the hotel.Wasyl glared at Kurt, demanding an explanation. "What the hell is going on, Mr. White? Is Liam, the loser, the mysterious big shot you mentioned?" he asked.Kurt's expression darkened. He looked at the angry Wasyl indifferently and replied with a frown, "Mr. Abbott if you're unhappy with the system of our hotel, you may file a complaint with our boss. It's our honor that Ms. Stone has chosen to have their wedding at our hotel. I hope you and everyone here can watch what you say."Cheryl flew off the handle as soon as she heard that. Refusing to accept it, she shouted, "Why? Why can that b
The Stone family members, as well as the guests who came to attend the wedding, kept sneering at Celena. They were even gossiping while pointing at her.Time ticked away. Almost a hundred guests were standing at the entrance of Southbridge Hotel. Many of them were influential people well-known in Drunham City.However, Celena was still standing alone in front of the Sunflower Hotel. It was extremely laughable.Cheryl sneered upon seeing that. She deliberately shouted, "Hey, Celena, why are you still standing there alone? Didn't they say there's going to be a team to escort you? It's been half an hour. Where's Liam? Is he not coming anymore because he's regretting this?""Hahaha! This is killing me! It would be amazing if Liam ran away from his wedding!""That's possible. Think about it. Liam deliberately chose to have the wedding across from Cheryl and Mr. Abbott. He must be scared after he saw how lavish things are on this end.""You're right. Look how grand Cheryl's wedding is.
This only made Celena sob even harder, but she kept her fists clenched in an effort to stifle them. She was already trying her absolute hardest to remain calm, but it was evident from her chewed lip that she was on the verge of collapsing.All of a sudden, a thunderous crash ensued, so deafening that everyone jumped and turned in the direction of the noise. The noise was getting louder and louder, as though whatever it was that had made such a commotion was approaching them.Within minutes, the large silhouette of a moving object appeared in the distance. As it approached noisily, one could finally make out what it was. To be specific, it was not one object, but many—eight military tanks, decked out in red streamers, were rolling down the streets of Drunham City. Trailing behind the tanks was a line of luxurious cars so long that one could not even see the end. They cruised slowly along the streets, and amidst the hubbub, no one noticed a row of fireworks being laid out on both s
The smile froze on Wasyl's face. As confused as he was, he could not showcase his bafflement, especially not when everyone else assumed he had been responsible for this spectacular show. He could not possibly embarrass himself on his own wedding day!He regained his composure and plastered a self-assured smile on his face as he nodded to the guests. Then, turning to Cheryl, he crooned, "How was it, darling? Do you like it?""Of course I do! I couldn't ask for anything better! You're the most romantic husband in the whole world! I love you so much!" Cheryl replied, beaming from ear to ear, before kissing Wasyl on his cheek again. Then, with a sneer, she turned to glance at Celena. "Why are you still standing there by yourself, Celena? Weren't you determined to see whose wedding would be grander?"Then, deliberately raising her voice, she added, "Do you see this, Celena? My dearest husband prepared the fireworks and the procession as a surprise for me! What about yours?"Celena bit h
The Stones seemed equally as stupefied as Cheryl was, but in a good way. If these people were truly there for her and Wasyl's wedding, it would be a great, almost unfathomable honor for the Stones!Everyone turned to Wasyl in anticipation of his answer. Wasyl, on the other hand, was staring at the newcomers with a look of frank horror on his face. Beads of cold sweat had formed on his forehead. He could take credit for the fireworks and the military procession, but he could not outright lie about these guests! It would only be too easy to be proven wrong, and he could not risk offending any of these esteemed guests!He would be over the moon if even only one of them showed up, but to have all of them attend at the same time? It was an honor beyond his wildest imagination and also a curse that would backfire in unimaginable ways with one wrong move.As vain as Wasyl was, even he dared not to take the risk, so he glanced around at the expectant faces, wiping his forehead nervously.
