Even if they desperately wanted to interact with Walter and the Grahams, they were holding it in. Ezra leaned in and whispered softly, "Sir, it's almost time. We should proceed with the wedding." Austin nodded and smiled. "Mom, Dad. The wedding should be starting soon," he said. Melodious music started to play. The music echoed across the spacious lawn of the Tetra Club. Just then, the crowd fell silent, as all the important guests started to take their seats. Jennie had helped to coordinate the ceremony and brought along the best team. The entire wedding ceremony was just top-notch. Even the emcee was a top host. Everything was planned according to Cecily's dream wedding. After the emcee's opening introduction, the main event quickly began.When Austin stepped onto the stage, the entire crowd erupted into thunderous applause. No matter how rich or powerful they were, nobody withheld their applause. Everyone knew that the Campbells were way above their league. To

Following Austin's words, Dahlia suddenly spoke up, "Walter, Austin, calm down."Then, she apologized profusely to Cecily and her family. Dahlia was kind and understanding about Vincent's situation. She was also well aware of Austin and Vincent's friendship.Even if she was mad that Vincent had made a scene at her son's wedding, his actions didn't warrant violence.After apologizing, Dahlia hurriedly reprimanded Vincent. "Vincent, you silly boy! Have you lost your mind? Hurry up and apologize. Or would you rather explain your objection?"She was obviously trying to help Vincent.As long as he apologized or gave an explanation, they could sweep it under the rug. The wedding could continue, and everything would be fine. Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief for Vincent. He was a lucky bastard. He had made such a scene, and yet somebody was still willing to help him out.However, Vincent said, "There's no explanation. I just object!" He looked confident and determined, al

Austin's expression froze as he noticed the men with weapons surrounding Vincent.If he had been just a little bit later, Vincent might really have been killed.Austin was touched. He was grateful to have such a friend who would stick by him under such extreme circumstances and not back down even in the face of death.Taking a deep breath, Austin turned toward the stage.Each one of the familiar faces caught his eye.His nose started to feel stuffy, and tears welled up in his eyes.His gaze rested on Cecily who looked confused and panicked. He smiled warmly at her, and said, "I'm back, silly!"A shiver traveled down Cecily's spine. The panic instantly left her pretty face, as tears started to stream down her face.That was what he always called her. "Austin" didn't change her nickname because of what he had gone through.Her nickname had always been the same. It was "Austin" that had changed. In that case, who was this person beside her?Cecily slowly turned to face "

Austin couldn't care less about anything else, as tears streamed down his face. "It's alright. Mom will be alright," he said.At that moment, he felt his chest tighten as if it were about to explode. Self-blame, guilt, reluctance, and other emotions tangled together, filling his chest. He had risked his life to come back. This wasn't the outcome he wanted.Memories of the past 20 years with his mother floated in his mind. He remembered that time in the dead of winter. His mother had draped the thickest clothes in the house over him. Even if she was freezing, she still insisted on going out to rummage through the rubbish, just to raise him. He remembered that on New Year's Eve, his mother would smile and offer him a warm plate of pasta. That was the only plate of pasta the entire family would have on New Year's Eve, and his mother insisted on him finishing the whole plate. He remembered that when others were calling him a mutt, it was his mother who protected him. With he

Cecily knew how close Austin and his mom were. So, she was worried that he might do something reckless. After Dahlia died, Austin had woken up in the hospital. However, it was like he was a completely different person. He was so stoic that it scared Cecily. He would ignore her and wouldn't even give a reply when she talked to him.It was as if Austin had retreated into a shell and refused to let anyone in.Austin had calmly attended Dahlia's funeral. He returned to his room afterward, pushed Cecily out, and locked the door behind her. Cecily was about to have a meltdown because of how helpless she felt. "If Mr. Austin continues to hold it in, it will lead to big problems. He could even experience a change in character." Ezra sighed, as he turned to speak to Walter, "Mr. Walter, shouldn't we think of a plan?""It's all my fault. I couldn't protect my family." Walter sighed in sadness. "I am the head of the rich and powerful Campbells. And yet, I couldn't even protect my own
