Chapter 526 Set the Trap (2) Threats

The hatred between Hannah and Charles was so deep that the whole Kensbury City and even Northfield knew that they were irreconcilable.

That was why her presence was inconceivable to the reporters who were thrilled about a big story to come.

Instead of refusing to be interviewed, Hannah stood in front of them, who were blocked by security, and remained unruffled by their aggressive questions.

"Mrs Wells, are you here for Mr Sawyer's wedding?" asked one reporter eagerly.

"Of course."

"Why did Mr Sawyer invite you when there were so many conflicts between you two?" the reporter was amazed.

Hannah smiled and answered, "It's all business competition. Privately, our relationship is not as hostile as people think. No matter what happened, the four families have always been on good terms. There's nothing wrong with my attendance here."

"But I heard that they had only sent an invitation to the Phillips family." The reporter questioned.

"I'm sure you know why the Wells family was not invited. They are tied up in a lawsuit, and the Sawyers' concern about it is understandable. In turn, the Wells family is well aware of its situation and that the Sawyers have to avert suspicion as Charles is marrying the daughter of an aristocratic family." Hannah answered with ease, "As for my family. We were invited, but since my parents aren't feeling well, I'm here at the wedding on their behalf."

"Is that true?" the reporters remained sceptical of her claim.

"Charles is more generous than you think. We have grown up together. Although our relationship didn't work out, I guess it's merely the fickleness of fate. Now that we've both found our true love, what's gone is gone." Hannah had been flattering Charles.

"It sounds like Mr Sawyer is indeed a gentleman." The reporter exclaimed spontaneously.

They didn't expect that despite all he had suffered from her, he would now be able to let bygones be bygones. Such a person like him will be bound to have a promising future. Everybody thought like this. "If there are no further questions, I should get in and congratulate the newlyweds." She was just about to leave when a reporter called out to her, "Mrs Wells."

Hannah stopped proceeding.

"Could you give us some updates on your husband Oscar Wells who has been detained for crimes?"

Hannah was well prepared as she knew what the reporters would probably ask.

"It's complicated. I haven't received a definite court date from the police who are still investigating on the case. As to whether my husband has committed a real crime..." She paused, getting a little emotional. All the reporters looked at her expectantly, hoping to get some inside scoop from her.

"I believe he's innocent." Said Hannah, with conviction.

"But it is clear that Mr Wells committed a crime from the evidence that has come to light." The reporter continued.

"No one can prove he's guilty until the court rules him guilty, so please don't jump to conclusions." The tone in her voice brooked no argument.

The reporter knew it would be futile to bombard her with more questions about it, he then changed the topic, "Do you have anything to say about this wedding? After all, back then, you and Mr Sawyer were a cute couple."

"As I said, the past is the past. Now that we've both found our partners, I have no thoughts other than wishing them well."

"Haven't you ever regretted it? Because no matter what happened in your past, at least for now, Mr Sawyer has a brighter future than Mr Wells. Aren't you jealous that Mr Sawyer has found such a perfect wife?" the reporter's questions were getting sharp.

There would always be one or two daredevil media outlets that tried to stir things up.

She exuded an air of relaxed calm, smiling politely, "I have no regrets or envy for his replaceing a wonderful wife. I was happy for him. After all, when we broke up, he took a long time to move on, and now I'm just glad and relieved to see him in a happy marriage."

"Don't you ever feel a sense of loss? You also mentioned that it took a long time for him to get over the relationship after losing you. Is there no vanity in being a woman now that he's in love with someone else?"

"No." Hannah answered bluntly, "I've fallen in love with another person, and so can he. It's fair. And again, I only came to give my blessing."

"Mrs Wells..."

"Excuse me." Hannah bowed a little for the sake of courtesy, "It's getting late. I should go. Thanks."

She dropped the polite remark and went straight into the hotel.

The hall of the hotel was splendid, with a long red carpet right in the middle and flowers all around it-a dream-like picture.

Hannah walked down the red carpet with confidence and grace.

Halfway down the carpet, she smiled while seeing Charles wearing a black suit. Being all dressed up today, he did look fresher and more graceful than usual.

He strode up to her and dragged her straight from the red carpet to the other side of the aisle.

"Are you insane?" he growled, greeting her with such words.

Hannah faced his anger with indifference. He must have come to stop her as soon as he got the message that she was there.

She said in a measured tone, "I came only to say congratulations."

"Hannah, what tricks are you playing!"

She frowned when Charles's grip on her arms was getting so tight.

Ignoring the hurt in her arms, she said, "No tricks, just to see what this enchanting woman you talked about looks like."

"You think I'll let you in?" Charles spat.

"It doesn't matter. I'll leave." Hannah replied carelessly, "But just now, in front of the press, I claimed that we had patched things up and were still friends. What do you think the press would think of you if you kicked me out now? Don't you think they'll describe you as a petty hypocrite?"
