The people scrutinized Natalie and whispered among themselves before quickly walking away. This aroused Natalie and Sheldon's suspicions.Sheldon was quick to notice the poster hanging on the wall. He walked toward the poster to check it out.Wasn't this a poster about Natalie's incident? Her address was even printed on it!This infuriated Sheldon, and he tore the poster apart.However, as soon as he finished tearing one, he discovered there were many more lining the walls! Moreover, these posters were in very obvious locations!Sheldon rushed over like a madman, tearing down one poster after another.Who did this? Who was this hell-bent on ruining Natalie's reputation? Why couldn't they let her live a peaceful life? He swore to find out who the mastermind was!Yet Natalie was as calm as a clam.She had thought it through. Regardless of her opponent's tricks, she would face them all head-on. She would not give up like this.Admitting defeat would be playing right into her oppo
The makeup artist decided to give the couple some space and left the room when they saw Henry walking toward Jennifer.Jennifer had never dated or had any intimate contact with a man before. So, having Henry approach her made her heart skip a beat, whether it was out of nervousness or anticipation.She slowly closed her eyes.However, Henry simply took a seat on the nearby couch. He even looked irritated.Jennifer felt a bit disappointed, but still asked with concern, "What's wrong? It's our wedding today. Why do you look so annoyed?"Henry tilted his head and stared deeply at Jennifer. "What would you do if you found out someone was plotting something behind your back?"Jennifer shrugged. "Then I'll make sure they'll end up regretting it.""What if they were aiming at the people you care about?" Henry's eyes glinted mysteriously.Jennifer felt a bit uneasy a this. She felt there was some hidden meaning behind his words.But Jennifer told herself not to overthink it. She was p
After the host delivered a warm opening speech, they started the ceremony."Next, let's put our hands together and welcome today's stars! Let's give them our most sincere blessings by giving them the biggest round of applause!"The host started to clap, and soon, thunderous applause echoed in the hall.Everyone turned their heads toward the entrance where a beautiful couple stood–Henry and Jennifer.Henry wore a dignified suit, highlighting his outstanding bearing. Beside him, Jennifer looked like someone who had just walked out of a beautiful painting.The spotlight shone behind them, making them the most dazzling figures inside the hall.Thomas was among the guests. A satisfied smile played on his lips as he saw this."My daughter is finally getting married to the person she loves. I'm sure this is a wedding she will never forget."Cliff smiled back at him. "Henry was the one who arranged the wedding. He cares a lot about Jennifer."I knew it! With how beautiful Jennifer is,
All these years, Henry had never referred to Cliff as his dad. But when Henry did, Cliff only felt shivers running down his spine.However, Henry hadn't done anything out of line, so Cliff could only force a smile despite the uneasy feeling.Thomas lowered his voice and hissed, "What is he doing?"Cliff wanted to swear at him. How the fuck would he know?Yet he found himself patiently whispering back, "Let's wait and see what happens next.""Hello, Grandpa," Jennifer politely greeted from the stage.Although the guests might be fooled by Jennifer's act, Henry was secretly sneering at her.He didn't hide his disdain. "You're not worthy to be Grandpa's grandaughter-in-law."This sentence immediately caused a commotion among the audience and they started whispering among themselves.The crowd was confused.Was Henry insulting Jennifer? But wasn't he treating Jennifer like some precious jewelry moments ago? What was with the sudden change?Cliff and Thomas sensed the seriousness
Jennifer was panicking, but she kept urging herself to calm down.She had been through many lawsuits, and some of them were only won at the very last second. As long as the verdict hadn't been given, she still had the chance to turn this around.Ethan was pushed onto the stage by the bodyguards. He kept his head down the entire way in, feeling extremely flustered."I'm sure you're very familiar with this man, aren't you, Ms. Brown?" Henry walked slowly toward Ethan and casually placed a hand on his shoulder.This seemingly casual gesture made Ethan shudder with fear.Jennifer pursed her lips and denied, "Not at all."Honestly, tears were beginning to form in Jennifer's eyes. She didn't expect Henry to investigate this.Most of all, she never thought Henry had been on Natalie's side all this time and was merely putting on an act for her.And she actually fell for it!Jennifer always thought she was in control of the situation, but she didn't realize she was being toyed around b
"Henry Chase, must you handle this so ruthlessly?" Sadness, disappointment, and anger swirled within Jennifer's gaze.Henry ignored her and continued, "The court case that made Ms. Brown famous ..."Henry suddenly turned to Jennifer, and his smile was tinted with disdain."Ms. Brown didn't win that case in an honorable way, right? She threatened the plaintiff and forced them to compromise just so you could win the case ..."Panic flashed across Jennifer's face as she was exposed.She had done this so discreetly! And it had been many years since the case! How did Henry find out about it?It seemed that Henry had put in a lot of effort just to embarrass her during the wedding.Jennifer thought this would be the happiest day of her life. Yet her groom had plotted against her and pushed her down to hell …Jennifer was on the verge of a breakdown.She interrupted Henry emotionally, "Stop! Stop talking! I'm sorry! Is this what you wanted? For me to apologize?""Did she really do th
Henry answered Leslie's call and immediately asked, "Do you know where Natalie is?"Leslie's heart skipped a beat at the question. Did that mean Natalie didn't attend the wedding?But when she spoke with Natalie earlier, Natalie clearly said she was preparing to leave for the wedding! What went wrong? Where was Natalie now?"I … I actually called to ask if you've seen her. I tried calling her, but I can't reach her ..." Leslie's tone was full of worry."You can't reach her?" Henry sounded nervous."I'll go look for her. Let me know if you have any news about her," Leslie said before hanging up the phone.Of course, Henry couldn't sit and wait around when he heard this.He had planned to meet up with Cliff in a lounge. He was sure Cliff must be anxiously waiting for an explanation.But now, Henry had something more urgent to attend to, so he decided to let Cliff wait a while longer.Henry turned and left.Wade had been following Henry. He reported, "Mr. Chase, there are report
"Why are you asking this? It's all in the past! Are our demands unreasonable? We just want to help your brother fulfill his dream!" John spoke firmly.Sheldon closed his eyes and snorted. "What other conditions do you have aside from taking over the company?"Amie exchanged a look with John.In the end, Amie conceded.She turned to Sheldon and said solemnly, "When your father's company was in a crisis several years ago, it was the Hill family who stepped in to help."We made a marriage deal with them that year. Originally, your brother should be the one who marries the Hills' daughter …"Sheldon found it more and more absurd.He stared at the two in disbelief. "So, you're not only intervening in my career, but now you're also trying to force me into a marriage!""You don't have to love her! But you have to see the marriage through! We must repay the Hills!" John sternly declared.Just then, a maid hurriedly ran downstairs and yelled, "Mr. and Mrs. Cook! Ms. Shepherd has escape
