A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO Chapter 671-680
Chapter 671
Alessandra was embarrassed. On the other hand, Ryder didn’t have a way
with words, so he didn’t know how to stand up for Emmanuel.
Only Roselynn sneered and said, “Well, it’s the exact opposite. Emmanuel
doesn’t think your sister is good enough for him as she’s too tacky. That’s why
he doesn’t even want to come.”
“You!” Certainly, Jacob wasn’t as sharp–tongued as the woman. He was so
furious that he had the urge to lay a hand on her. Just then, Melody stepped
out of the venue. “Well, look who’s here. I didn’t mean it when I invited you to
the wedding, Alessandra. I didn’t expect you to come.”
Melody’s words were even harsher. She sounded like they were there to get a
free dinner.
Alessandra was an honest housewife. Even though she was furious, she didn’t
know how to refute them, while Roselynn rolled her eyes and said, “We just
happened to pass by, so we thought we’d take a look. If you don’t welcome
us, we can leave now and save some money.”
Then, she took Alessandra’s hand, ready to leave.
Certainly, Alessandra wasn’t willing to leave. She didn’t mind getting mocked,
for she had to set up a date for Ryder. With that said, she knew that if she
insisted on staying, she would only embarrass her daughter. As such, she
1
had no choice but to turn around.
“Wait a minute!” Melody was even more impatient as she stopped them from
leaving. “Since you’re here, come on in! I didn’t say I didn’t welcome you!”
She wanted to get one more cash envelope since it was her daughter’s
wedding.
Jacob said through clenched teeth, “That’s right. Other than us, you probably
don’t have wealthy friends or relatives who could hold a wedding in a
five–star hotel. If you miss this wedding, you’ll regret it.”
Roselynn scoffed at that. Since the hotel was the Quillens‘, it was naturally
great.
The family who owned the hotel and the Lowe family were relatives. If the
conceited Jacob found out about it, he would probably be embarrassed.
Roselynn wasn’t someone who liked to brag, so she surely wouldn’t tell them
about it.
“Well, congratulations on your daughter’s wedding, then.” Since they were
formally invited to the wedding, Alessandra directly passed Melody a cash
envelope. Her primary goal was to approach Ruby and set up a date for
Ryder.
Roselynn pursed her lips, sporting a dark expression while looking at the
Zimmerman family.
“Come on in. We’ll have to attend to the other guests now. See you later.”
Melody passed the cash envelope to the woman at the entrance, not even
willing to look at how much money was inside. She didn’t think the Lowe
family could offer a lot of money, given how poor they were.
Much to her surprise, the woman, who was responsible for registering the
guests, exclaimed, “There’s 5,000 in the cash envelope, Mrs. Claus!”
“What?!” Melody was instantly rooted to the spot. Jacob was surprised as
well. Regardless of whether they were trying to give more money than they
could afford, they were generous.
“Well… thanks for the money, then. I’ll prepare another table for you.” Melody
snorted. She wasn’t pretending to be generous, but it was the rule. Also, she
was worried that if the Lowe family were seated with the other guests,
Alessandra would spout nonsense and embarrass the Zimmerman family.
“Thanks,” Alessandra replied with a smile. She didn’t expect Melody to see her
as having malicious intentions.
She was a generous person. Since her family had been doing well as of late,
she decided to give the newlyweds her blessings.
“By the way, since you’ve given us such a big cash envelope, why don’t you
ask Emmanuel to come as well? He doesn’t have to give us another cash
envelope anyway,” Jacob suggested. He wasn’t being generous. It’s just if
Emmanuel wasn’t around, how were he and his friends going to mock him?
He heard from Milani that Emmanuel had previously hooked up with a
wealthy lady, and he even showed off his Maserati. However, the wealthy
woman dumped him, and he lost his job. Certainly, he had to tell everyone
about it to embarrass the Lowe family and get revenge for Milani, for
Emmanuel had repeatedly messed with the woman before.
Chapter 672
“Well, I’ll ask him later.” Alessandra was kind–hearted, so she wasn’t aware
that Jacob and Melody had ill intentions. She thought that they were just
being polite.
On the other hand, Jacob and Melody turned around to greet the other
guests. He was certain that Emmanuel would come. I bet a poor guy like him
loves to enjoy delicious food for free.
After the Lowe family entered the venue, they realized it was indeed luxurious
and high–end. When Roselynn saw that her mother was about to give
Emmanuel a call, she dissuaded her from doing so. “Manny said he had to
keep Mackenzie company today. Why would he even come?”
If she were Emmanuel, she would never come to the wedding. However,
Alessandra still decided to give him a call. As expected, he turned her down
again because he was in the Yociam Residence.
Since Mackenzie was swamped with work, she directly worked remotely from
home while Emmanuel prepared dinner for his wife. When she heard the man
talking to Alessandra over the phone, she asked caringly after the call ended,
“What’s wrong?”
“My mom asked me to attend my 18th date’s wedding again,” Emmanuel
replied honestly.
Mackenzie sported a gloomy expression upon hearing that. She was sensitive
about the words ‘18th date‘.
She met Emmanuel on the man’s 18th blind date, after which they married.
Even though she knew Emmanuel no longer had anything to do with Milani,
she felt as if her husband’s ex–girlfriend had sent them an invitation to her
wedding. It would be inappropriate if Mackenzie’s husband refused to go.
Just then, her phone started ringing. “Hello, Grandpa? What’s wrong?”
“Mackenzie, do you have time to show up at Luxoria Hotel today?”
“Oh? What do you want me to do over there?” Mackenzie was curious.
Emmanuel was startled upon hearing that, for Luxoria Hotel was where
Milani’s wedding was held. He didn’t know the hotel was the Quillens‘.
“Do you remember the owner of Zion Hotel, Ignacio Wallace? It’s his nephew’s
wedding today. He said he was sorry for offending you and Emmanuel
previously, so he’d like to take this chance to hold a wedding in our hotel and
apologize to you two. He hopes you’ll attend the wedding,” Terence directly
told her the reason.
Mackenzie frowned. In the past, she wouldn’t attend this kind of event, but
now, she didn’t feel like refusing it.
First of all, the Quillens had suffered several setbacks in the business world as
t
of late, so they were no longer as powerful as before. As such, it’d be best if
they could make more friends instead of foes.
Secondly, Emmanuel’s 18th date was holding a wedding in the hotel. In other
words, she was Noah’s wife.
“Mackenzie, if you don’t want to go, I’ll turn him down. It doesn’t matter
anyway.” Terence was still as domineering as ever. He was fully aware of how
influential the Quillens were. Whether someone like Ignacio would be a friend
or a foe wouldn’t matter to them.
“Tell him I’m going to attend the wedding, Grandpa, but I’ll only be staying for
30 minutes.”
Terence was surprised that Mackenzie even agreed to it.
After the call ended, Alfred reported, “Old Mr. Quillen, the bride in our hotel
today is Emmanuel’s 18th date, Milani Zimmerman.”
Only then did Terence realize why Mackenzie was willing to attend the
wedding. He guffawed and said, “I see. It’ll be fun for the young people today,
then.”
After putting down her phone, Mackenzie got to her feet and said to
Emmanuel, “Why don’t we go to the wedding?”
Emmanuel had no idea what was on her mind. However, since his mother
and his wife wanted him to attend the wedding, he decided to oblige.
Anyway, it wasn’t like the Zimmerman family could devour him or anything.
Chapter 673
In Luxoria Hotel, there was a middle–aged woman with caked makeup. She
was about 45 years old, five–foot–one–tall, and chubby.
She didn’t have a beautiful face or a curvy figure. However, she had the
audacity to wear a short skirt and a pair of stilettos. Her unusual appearance
made her conspicuous among the crowd.
That was the reason Alessandra could easily replace her. She approached the
woman and said with a smile, “I’ve brought my godson with me, Ms. Margot.
Please arrange a meetup with the young miss for him.” Then, she stuffed a
cash envelope into the woman’s hands.
Margot instantly beamed and took her hands. “Don’t worry. There’s no blind
date in the world that I can’t set up. As for whether your godson can seize the
chance, that’ll depend on him.”
To her, Alessandra was her biggest client. The woman had paid her 18 times
before this.
Back then, when she heard that Alessandra’s son went to the wrong table
during the blind date and even married the woman, she was worried about
losing a client. Much to her surprise, Alessandra came looking for her again.
Soon, Margot swayed her hips as she walked toward another table.
Ruby was reapplying lipstick while looking at a pocket mirror as if no one else
was around. As one of the bridesmaids, she was wearing a white dress, and
the cleavage stretched all the way to her belly button.
“How are you, Mr., Mrs., and Ms. Zimmerman? It’s me, Margot. I’m here to
introduce a wonderful man who has the potential to be Ms. Zimmerman’s
husband to all of you. Let me tell you how incredible he is!”
In fact, Margot had only come into contact with the Zimmerman family on
several occasions, but she acted like they were close friends.
“That guy is well–built and mild–tempered. Not only does he have a stable
job, but he also has a house and a car…
Margot went on to describe a man that seemed too perfect to exist.
Fortunately, Ryder wasn’t around. Otherwise, he would never admit that
Margot was talking about him!
“Alright, cut the crap. Let’s see how much he can fork out.” Ruby’s father,
Roderick, directly came up with his demand, and Ruby’s mother, Belinda,
shared the same sentiment.
Their daughter fell in love for the first time when she was a teenager. Since
then, she’d had double–digit ex–boyfriends. She was even married once, but
she divorced the man a month later.
As such, her parents didn’t care what man she would marry as long as he
had the money.
“That’s for sure. However, you’ll have to discuss the details with them.”
Margot was there to arrange a meetup so that she could earn some money.
Her task would be completed as long as the two families met up. As for
whether the blind date would turn out to be a success, it was none of her
business.
Anyway, she secretly hoped that the meetup would be a failure. That way,
Alessandra would seek her help again and give her some cash.
Soon, Margot returned to Alessandra’s side and said with a smile, “It’s done,
Alessandra. They want you guys to go over and meet them. Tell him to seize
the chance!” She sounded like there was a good chance of success.
Alessandra replied with a smile, “Thanks, Ms. Margot!” Then, she said to Ryder,
“Let’s go and meet them now.
Seeing that her mother was so acquiescent, Roselynn was displeased. “Mom,
why didn’t they come with Ms. Margot? Why are we required to go over and
meet them instead?”
They were the ones who gave Margot a cash envelope, but now, they still
had to act subserviently and take the initiative to meet the other party.
“Stop spouting nonsense, Roselynn! Since Ryder is a man, he has to be more
proactive.” Alessandra quickly stopped her daughter from speaking any
further.
Ryder was an honest man who was fully aware of his inadequacy, so he
didn’t have the nerve to make the woman come and meet him. He would be
more at ease by taking the initiative.
Then, he told Tommy not to run around before he left with Alessandra and
Roselynn. He was going on a blind date, after all. If he took his son with him,
his chance of success would even be lower.
Soon, they arrived at the table where Ruby was seated.
Chapter 674
Ruby was retouching her makeup, and she didn’t even spare Ryder a glance.
Before the three of them even sat down, Roderick interrupted Margot by
saying, “Let’s cut to the chase. I only have one demand, which is a dowry of
70,000. As long as you have the money, you can take my daughter away.”
“What?! 70,000?” Ryder was dumbfounded upon hearing that.
He took a look at Ruby, who was as good–looking as Abellyn with makeup on.
However, he only gave Abellyn 14,000 at that time, and she had never been
married. What made Ruby’s parents think they could demand 70,000?
Roselynn found it laughable. They should take a good look at their daughter
before they demand such an exorbitant bride price. Are they out of their
mind?
“What’s wrong? Can’t you afford it?” Belinda was an even better talker than
Margot. She praised her daughter by saying, “Ruby is five–foot–three,
well–mannered, beautiful, and talented. Countless men are lining up to marry
her. On the other hand, you’re so ugly. You’re lucky enough since we’re willing
to let you marry her for 70,000.”
Upon hearing that, Ryder wouldn’t dare to refute her, for Ruby was indeed out
of his league.
“Well… let’s talk about the dowry later. Why don’t we let the two of them have
a chat first?” Alessandra said through clenched teeth. She had taken Ryder to
be her godson. If he was fond of Ruby, she was willing to get enough money
to pay regardless of what it took.
All of a sudden, Ruby lifted her gaze. The moment she caught sight of Ryder,
she furrowed her brows, which made some of the powder fall off her
forehead.
How does this ugly man have the nerve to go on a blind date with me?
When she saw Alessandra and Roselynn, she was astounded. “Oh, it’s you
two!”
Roselynn sneered. “Well, it’s us. Since we’re not exactly strangers, let’s stop
beating around the bush. Your cousin Milani only demanded 70,000 back
then. On the other hand, you’re no longer young and beautiful. Do you think
you’re worth the same amount of money?”
There was no doubt she was mean.
Ruby directly snapped. “What do you mean that I’m not worth 70,000? This
man is so ugly, and he even has a child. I’m not going to marry him if he can’t
give us 140,000. Tell him to get lost!”
Now, she directly demanded 140,000.
Roselynn was so exasperated that she had the urge to laugh. On the other
hand, Ryder no longer wanted to carry on with the negotiation. Unless he sold
both of his kidneys, how was he going to get 140,000?
Belinda defended her daughter by saying agitatedly, “That’s right. It’s
apparent that he isn’t a capable man. What makes him think I’ll let my
daughter marry him when he doesn’t have money?”
“That’s enough!” Roselynn couldn’t take it anymore. If she still didn’t stand up
for Ryder, the Zimmerman family would continue to ridicule her cousin.
“Did you just say your daughter is five–foot–three? Tell her to stand up right
now. I’m five–foot–six. If her head is on the same level as my nose, I’ll
apologize to her.”
Upon hearing that, Ruby was diffident, for she was only five–foot–one.
“Also tell her to remove her makeup. I can see that her skin must be full of
blemishes. And did you also say she’s well–mannered? Didn’t you see how
feisty she was? If she’s well–mannered, there won’t be any boorish people in
this world. By the way, what did you mean when you said she’s talented?
Were you talking about her skills in bed? I heard that she has had a lot of
relationships before, and she was even married once. Perhaps she’s indeed
skillful in bed.”
Roselynn had never been a forgiving person. She directly pointed out all of
Ruby’s shortcomings.
Ryder’s confidence grew stronger as he listened to her. In that case, he was
good enough for the woman before his eyes.
Chapter 675
A Maserati pulled up in front of Luxoria Hotel all of a sudden, after which a
group of security guards streamed out of the building. At the same time, a
red carpet extended from the hotel to the car; even the general manager of
the hotel came over to greet the person.
“My goodness! Has any big shot arrived?”
Jacob and Melody were the bride’s family members, so they had been
greeting the guests and accepting cash envelopes at the entrance on her
behalf.
Certainly, their entrance was only a side door to the hotel, but they could still
see the ostentation at the main entrance.
It was just like the arrival of an important CEO as described in romance
novels.
“We’ve been here the entire morning, but we haven’t seen anyone receiving
such treatment.”
Melody was curious as well. When the Lofis family arrived a while ago, those
from the hotel didn’t greet them in such a grand way. It went to show that the
person inside the Maserati was extremely powerful.
“I’ll have a look, Mom!”
Jacob tossed the thing in his hands to his mother and excitedly bolted
toward the main entrance. He wondered if the person was there to attend
Milani’s wedding. If a big shot or a popular celebrity came to the wedding,
their family would be honored.
Just then, someone opened the door for Mackenzie, who then got out of the
car.
“My gosh! Her legs are beautiful!”
Jacob was hiding behind the crowd. When he saw Mackenzie’s legs and
curvy figure, his eyes brightened as he drooled over the woman’s elegant
disposition.
Undoubtedly, the woman was wealthy and gorgeous.
He started dreaming about bumping into the wealthy young lady, falling in
love with her, and eventually marrying her, just like what was described in
romance novels. He became excited just by thinking about it.
However, before he could see Mackenzie’s face, the security guards pushed
him away. “What are you doing? You’re not supposed to yell!”
They wouldn’t allow a licentious man like him to cause a scene in front of the
young lady of the Quillen family.
“Dang it!” Jacob was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He had no
choice but to return to the venue while feeling frustrated.
He was at the bottom of the social hierarchy. Earlier on, he almost had the
chance to have a look at the wealthy young lady of Yeringham, but he was
pushed away in the end. It was only natural that he felt displeased.
He wondered if the wealthy young lady was different from the average
woman in any way.
The next moment, Emmanuel exited from the driver’s seat and spoke to the
valet, who came over to help park his car. “Thanks,” he said.
“It’s my honor.”
The security guards of the hotel were aware of his identity. He was the man
who married Mackenzie roughly three months ago, and it was said that the
woman was still trying to determine if Emmanuel was the right man for her.
“This way please, Ms. Quillen and Mr. Lowe.”
The general manager bowed and invited them to enter the hotel. While
following Mackenzie, he reported, “Mr. Wallace and Noah have arranged a
presidential suite for you, Ms. Quillen. You may go to the room at any
moment.”
“Alright, I got it,” Mackenzie replied dispassionately before turning to look at
Emmanuel. “Why don’t you go to the wedding? She’s your 18th date, after all,
and she even wooed you before. Why don’t you go and give her your
blessings?”
Emmanuel could only nod with a helpless smile.
He had been spending time with the Icy Female CEO for the past three
months, so he understood the woman much better now. His wife’s words
showed that she was displeased and jealous.
Well, why is she even jealous? I’ve never been in an equivocal relationship
with Milani before!
The general manager hung his head low. When he heard Mackenzie’s words,
he couldn’t help but wonder why a wealthy young lady like her would marry a
man who had gone on 18 blind dates before.
Even the worst novelist wouldn’t dare include such a plot in their story, but it
happened in real life.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel didn’t care what the others thought about him. He
headed to the wedding through a different corridor.
Just then, Jacob and Melody passed through the entrance, ready to return to
the venue.
“Mom, don’t you think our relatives are stingy? The biggest cash envelope
we’ve received is only 5,000 bucks, whereas a lot of the relatives on the
groom’s side have given more than 10,000.”
Jacob pursed his lips and glanced at the register of cash envelopes with a
disappointed look.
Chapter 676
Milani had promised Jacob that the money they received on her wedding
day would be given to him when he got married in the future.
“Yes, it’s quite embarrassing.” Melody let out a sigh. “The biggest cash
envelope was given by the family of your sister’s former date. If others replace
out about this, we’ll become laughingstocks.”
“Haha! It just shows that rich people are stingy, whereas poor people like
pretending to be generous.” Jacob laughed. “We all know Emmanuel comes
from a poor family. They live in a 900–square–foot home and don’t even have
a car. However, his family gave 5,000 to his former date on her wedding day.
Say, don’t you think Emmanuel is still hung up on Milani?“.
Melody found her son’s words logical. She chuckled and said, “Milani must be
the most beautiful one among the women he has gone on dates with before.
Now, he must be regretful of the fact that he didn’t give us a bride price of
70,000 back then.”
“My thoughts exactly, haha!” Jacob grinned. “Anyway, I’m surprised that the
poor guy, who earns an annual income of 12,000, isn’t here for a free meal-”
Before he could finish his words, he became rooted to the spot. Then, he
rubbed his eyes and looked intently, only to be shocked by a figure in the
corridor. The person was none other than Emmanuel!
Speak of the devil!
A speechless Emmanuel had heard the conversation between them, and he
felt his lips twitching. The Zimmerman family are all despicable people!
“Haha, Mom! What was I saying? told you this man would come for a free
meal!” Jacob guffawed and approached Emmanuel. “What’s wrong? Are you
trying to sneak into the venue through the side door? Are you worried it’ll be
embarrassing for you?”
“Why would I even feel embarrassed?” Emmanuel found him laughable.
“Milani was the one who wooed me madly, and I turned her down. Now that
she’s found the man she loves, I’m here to offer my blessings. Also, isn’t the
cash envelope my family has given to you the biggest one you received?”
“Well…” The smile on Jacob’s face froze. Suddenly, he felt like a fool.
Emmanuel put on a disdainful smile and brushed past him, no longer
wanting to respond to a good–for–nothing like him.
Behind him, Jacob was incensed. Nothing was more frustrating than this.
He had planned on getting revenge for his sister, but the moment he came
across Emmanuel, he was the one getting humiliated instead.
It seemed that it was difficult to get his revenge.
“Why is there such a shameless person in this world, Mom? He doesn’t even
dare enter the wedding through the main door, but he still has the nerve to
argue with me. What gives a poor man like him the confidence to be so
haughty? Doesn’t he know that Milani is marrying a wealthy man?”
Jacob kept yelling to vent his fury following a war of words with Emmanuel.
Melody placated her son, saying, “Alright, Jacob. Stop getting mad because
of someone like him! Even if he wasn’t aware of it in the past, he can surely
tell that Milani’s marrying an incredible man when he sees the wedding. We’ll
humiliate him in front of everyone later. Let’s see how he can still act
arrogantly by then.”
“That’s right. I’ll look for Milani right now and tell her to join forces with us. Dang
it!” Upon making a decision, Jacob headed straight to the bride’s dressing
room.
Presently, Milani was putting on jewelry in the dressing room. However, the
flashy jewelry didn’t match her wedding dress at all. That was the last of her
concerns, though. She had the urge to put on all the jewelry she had, and
that was the typical behavior of the newly rich.
“Oh? Is Emmanuel here?”
When Milani saw how agitated her brother was, she giggled. “I didn’t expect
he’d have the courage to come. I can take this chance to settle the score
with him.”
She would never forget why she even left Yeringham in the past.
At that time, she accepted Ruby’s bad suggestion and confessed her love for
Emmanuel in public.
After she was turned down, she became the laughingstock among her
schoolmates. Soon, she found out that the man was merely the plaything of
a wealthy woman. That discovery made her feel utterly ashamed.
As such, she had to seize this chance to let all her friends and relatives know
that she was living her best life, whereas Emmanuel was in a terrible state.
She had been waiting for a chance to get her revenge, and she could finally
get it now.
Chapter 677
Tia was Milani’s best friend, but she wasn’t a bridesmaid on her wedding day.
Instead, she attended the wedding as her classmate.
“Isn’t that Milani’s ex–boyfriend, Emmanuel?”
“That’s right. Why is he here?”
“Haha! His ex–girlfriend is getting married today. If he doesn’t come, others
might say he’s narrow–minded and still misses her.”
“Since he’s here, there’ll be a good show today!”
The instant Emmanuel entered the venue, several youngsters recognized
him. After all, Milani’s public confession had caused quite a stir back then.
Being Milani’s classmates and friends, they were certainly aware of it.
When Tia heard their discussions, she was frustrated. She understood the
feud between Milani and Emmanuel, but the man couldn’t be blamed. It was
all Milani’s wishful thinking, and they weren’t even in a relationship.
Also, she knew Milani very well. Since the woman had married a wealthy man
from Onza who was even willing to hold a grand wedding for her in
Yeringham, she would definitely make use of her husband’s power to
retaliate against Emmanuel.
What should I do?
“Let’s get the bride over, shall we?”
“Yeah, the wedding is taking forever to start. I’m so bored. Let’s watch a good
show first!”
“I heard that Milani’s husband is a wealthy young man from Onza, and he’s
hot–tempered. If he replaces out what happened between his wife and
Emmanuel, how is he going to deal with him?”
Hoping for the wedding to plunge into chaos, they quickly called out to Milani
in the group chat.
‘Your former Prince Charming is here!‘
‘Don’t let your husband see him! What if they get into a fight? I’ll be terrified!‘
“Do you still love him? Or do you love your husband more?!
These youngsters fanned the flames, hoping to watch a good show.
If they could see Milani’s husband and Emmanuel getting into a fight, their
trip to the wedding would be worth it.
-After reading these messages, Milani gritted her teeth and clenched the
phone with her bony fingers.
‘Alright, just wait! There will certainly be a good show!‘ Milani replied in the
group chat.
‘Wow!‘
All of them around the table were excited, already imagining the good show
they were about to witness.
An anxious Tia ran toward Emmanuel.
“Hey, what’s going on with Tia?”
“No way! Has she hooked up with Emmanuel?”
“Is she going to betray Milani and all of us?”
All these people appeared shocked.
Ignoring the people behind her, Tia said to Emmanuel in a small voice, “Milani
is going to join forces with her husband to deal with you. Why don’t you leave
now?”
Emmanuel was startled for a moment, but he soon dismissed it as he had
already expected such an outcome.
1
After exchanging moves with a young master from a powerful family,
Magnus, he was no longer bothered by the hostility from an insignificant
family like the Zimmerman family.
People like them were usually straightforward when they made a move, so
Emmanuel could deal with them easily.
“Since I’m here, I’m not in a hurry to leave. Don’t worry about me.”
Seeing as the man wasn’t willing to accept her advice, there was nothing Tia
could do.
Meanwhile, the other classmates were worried that there wouldn’t be a good
show, so they hurriedly pulled Tia back.
Emmanuel ignored these people, for they had nothing better to do. He
decided to look for his mother to prove that he had attended the wedding.
When he scanned his surroundings and saw Tommy on his own, he
approached the young kid.
Meanwhile, Milani suddenly got to her feet and bit her lip before ordering,
“Jacob, tell your friends to get ready to expose Emmanuel for being a wealthy
woman’s kept man, getting dumped in the end, and even losing his
12,000–annual salary job in front of the guests later. Make the story
interesting!”
Jacob was startled for a moment before appearing excited. “Won’t we cross
the line or something, Milani? I’m worried the others might say we’re too
mean!”
Chapter 678
“Why are you even worried?” Milani appeared smug. “Everyone knows that I’m
getting married to a wealthy young man from Onza. No one will have the
guts to offend me today. I’m sure they’ll side with us!”
Jacob guffawed. “You’ll definitely destroy Emmanuel!”
Milani became even more arrogant. “I’ll look for Noah now and tell him to
make the arrangements. If that boorish man feels ashamed and wants to lay
a hand on me, I’ll get some people to beat him up and humiliate him further!”
Only by doing so could she retaliate against Emmanuel, who had turned her
down back then and made her the target of mockery among her friends and
relatives.
Jacob tutted and thought that Milani was so vicious. Even as her brother, he
was still no match for her. He didn’t expect his sister to be so ruthless. After
giving it some thought, he reminded her by saying, “I think Emmanuel’s
cousin is on a blind date with Ruby now. I’m sure Ruby will turn him down. Why
don’t we…”
“Sure, include that story as well. Also, tell everyone this–when Emmanuel
came proposing to me back then, he couldn’t even afford to pay the bride
price!” Milani said while clenching her fists.
“Haha, sure! I’ll make the arrangements right away.” Jacob ran out of the
room while feeling excited.
After all, Milani was wearing a wedding dress, and she still had to pretend to
be a virtuous lady in front of Noah’s family members. As such, she quickly
pulled herself together and headed to the presidential suite elegantly.
Much to her surprise, the moment she reached the top floor, she bumped
into a woman who was both gorgeous and graceful.
Milani felt devastated, for a woman felt the most beautiful when she was
wearing a wedding dress. Despite being in tip–top condition, she still wasn’t
comparable to the charming lady in front of her.
Who is she? After pondering for a moment, she suddenly turned around and
yelled, “Stay right there!”
When Noah proposed to her by the roadside in Onza back then, a woman
destroyed their set–up with her car. That woman was right before her eyes
now.
Why is she in Yeringham?
Although Milani didn’t know who Mackenzie was, Mackenzie was aware of the
woman’s identity. She was wondering why Emmanuel’s 18th date was on the
top floor of the hotel, but she decided to ignore Milani. After all, they were not
of the same caliber. Much to her surprise, the woman had the guts to yell at
her. How dare she?!
“What are you doing here?” Milani pointed at Mackenzie and sneered smugly.
“You’ve dressed up nicely today. Are you here to meet someone else’s
husband? I have to say that you’re pretty audacious, huh? You destroyed
Noah’s romantic proposal to me back then, and now, you still have the guts
to come to our wedding.”
Mackenzie scoffed and turned around to enter the presidential suite.
“Hey, you arrogant woman! Are you sick of living? I’ll kill you!” Milani was
incensed, not expecting anyone to be rude to her in the hotel. Doesn’t she
know I’m the bride today?
She wanted to barge into the presidential suite, but she realized she couldn’t
open the door, for she didn’t have an access card. Left with no choice, she
could only continue shouting outside the room.
Suddenly, Noah was heard speaking from behind her. “What are you doing,
Milani?”
Milani turned around and saw Noah and his wealthy uncle coming over.
Ignacio sported a dark expression, clearly displeased at the ill–mannered
woman. However, he couldn’t oppose the marriage because Noah was
besotted with her.
“Hi, Mr. Wallace!” Milani wasn’t a fool. After greeting Ignacio, she hooked her
arm around her husband’s and acted coquettishly. “You’ve come at the right
-time, dear. You have to stand up for me today!”
Chapter 679
“Haha! As your husband, I’ll surely stand up for you.”
Noah doted on Milani. That was the reason he was willing to marry the
woman.
First of all, Milani was beautiful.
Secondly, she graduated from a prestigious university and was a capable
person. The fact that she was a manager at a large corporation like Cloud
Construction at the age of 27 was proof.
Thirdly, she knew how to please a man. Noah enjoyed her company very
much and was smitten with her.
“Dear, do you remember the woman who messed up your proposal a while
back?” Milani bit her lip and asked.
At the mention of this, Noah was shocked and subconsciously glanced at
Ignacio. “Sure, I remember.”
He dipped his head. It was because of the incident that Ignacio took him to
task back then. It was also the reason why they even held the wedding in this
hotel, for they had to apologize to Mackenzie.
Ignacio had a premonition and stared fixedly at Milani. Was this foolish
woman shouting at Ms. Quillen just now?
However, Milani was oblivious to everything else as her eyes were blinded by
resentment. She held onto Noah’s arm and rubbed it with her chest before
saying coquettishly, “That’s great. I think the woman is going to cause a
scene at our wedding. When she saw me earlier, she was so scared that she
ran into her room. Help me get her out of the room and lecture her!”
“What?!” Noah was flabbergasted and stole a glance at Ignacio again.
At that moment, Ignacio’s face was burning with rage. Has this stupid woman
really offended Ms. Quillen again?!
On the other hand, Milani didn’t pay any attention to the older man. When
she saw her husband’s agitation, she thought he was equally furious. As
such, she fanned the flames by saying, “That woman is probably a mistress.
She’s wearing expensive clothes, though. A mistress like her is haughty
because there’s a wealthy man who dotes on her. I’m not afraid of her. When
I see her later, I’ll give her a good, hard slap.”
She sounded fierce. It was as if she could make her husband proud by saying
- However, when she detected that Noah was trembling in fear, she asked,
“What’s wrong, dear? Are you afraid of a woman?”
Finally, she realized that something was off. Noah wanted to tell her to stop,
but it was too late.
“Shut up!” Ignacio growled, causing Milani to almost jump out of her skin.
She turned around puzzledly, only to see a large palm coming right at her
face. The next moment, Ignacio landed a slap on the bride’s face. At that
instant, she was dumbfounded. Despite feeling incensed, she didn’t dare to
flare up.
“You’ve made a mistake again, Milani. We’ve invited the woman to the
wedding. She’s a big shot we can’t afford to offend!”
Only then did Noah tell her the truth. Upon hearing that, Milani was
astounded, finally realizing why she was slapped. At the same time, she was
curious about who the woman was, for even the owner of a large hotel from
Onza was afraid of her.
Ignacio cut to the chase and ordered Noah coldly, “Take her inside and
apologize to Ms. Quillen now.”
Chapter 680
Milani was petrified as her mouth widened in disbelief.
That woman is the legendary Icy Female CEO of Yeringham as well as the
young lady from one of the wealthiest families?!
She had heard a lot about Mackenzie. However, due to her ordinary
background, she hadn’t had a chance to meet the woman.
In the past, she had hoped to meet her so that she could brag about it in
front of others. Nevertheless, she didn’t know that she had already come
across the woman, but she had offended the other party at that time.
My gosh! I’m so stupid! How could I offend a big shot like her?!
Soon, Ignacio pressed the doorbell. Upon getting permission from the woman
inside, he opened the door with the room card.
On the other hand, Noah and Milani stood outside like two students who had
made a mistake in the classroom.
“Haha. It’s my honor to have you here, Ms. Quillen.”
As a shrewd man who had been in the business world for years, Ignacio knew
how to butter up those who were more powerful.
Mackenzie was seated on the couch in the presidential suite and dealing
with work on her phone. It wasn’t until she heard the older man’s voice that
she lifted her gaze.
“I’m glad to be here too, Mr. Wallace.”
Following a perfunctory reply, she sported an icy expression. “Thanks for
booking the presidential suite of Luxoria Hotel for me. Is the woman outside
the door who greeted me earlier also your arrangement?”
“Well…”
Ignacio was startled for a moment. Knowing that he couldn’t avoid dealing
with the matter, he took the initiative by growling, “Noah, take your wife inside
and apologize to Ms. Quillen now!”
When he finished his words, Milani rushed into the room and fell to her knees
in front of Mackenzie before Noah could even make a move.
Mackenzie frowned, not expecting Emmanuel’s 18th date to be this kind of
woman.
It seemed that Alessandra hadn’t been selective when choosing women for
Emmanuel.
It was no wonder the man didn’t want any of them.
“I didn’t know who you were, Ms. Quillen. Sorry for offending you just now.
Please accept my apology.”
Milani begged for the woman’s mercy.
As an employee of Cloud Construction, she understood how influential the
Quillen family was in Yeringham.
She hoped to get Mackenzie’s forgiveness so that the woman would stop
treating her like a foe. It’d be best if they could even become best friends.
At the thought of this, she continued, “Isn’t it coincidental that we’ve bumped
into each other twice? My name is Milani Zimmerman. I helped with the
warehouse project for the Terence Group before.”
“Oh, it’s you,” Mackenzie replied with a smile, pretending to know the woman.
In an instant, Milani beamed. “Yes, it’s me. Do you know me, Ms. Quillen? It’s
my honor.”
“Yes, I heard of your name before.”
Mackenzie remained calm. Without telling the woman to get up, she
continued, “It was thanks to Emmanuel who chased away Mr. Webber and
the others that the project was successfully completed. I heard from Lexi that
you were his date. It seems that the two of you could be potential partners at
that time.”
Milani didn’t know that Mackenzie was probing her about her relationship with
-Emmanuel.
When she heard the woman’s words, she put on a brighter smile, assuming
that Mackenzie had taken the initiative to have a chat with her.
In that case, it was likely that they could be friends.
Just by thinking that she would have a wealthy young lady as her friend, she
felt that she would have a lot of opportunities in the future.
As such, she hurriedly replied, “To tell you the truth, it was the worst thing that
ever happened to me. Even though that man has lent the Terence Group a
Kelping hand, his personality is terrible.”
“Oh? What do you mean?” Mackenzie asked intentionally.
Milani was excited, not expecting the wealthy young lady to be different from
the rumors about her. Instead of being icy, the woman seemed to love
gossip.
Since there was a chance to befriend the woman, Milani decided to dwell on
this topic.
She got to her feet and snorted. “He’s a horrible guy. After I turned him down,
he went hooking up with a rich woman. I wonder who the woman was for
keeping a plaything like him. She has an awful taste in men.”
Upon hearing that, Mackenzie furrowed her brows as her gaze radiated a
glint.
