Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) -
Chapter 115
Meanwhile, at the Victoria five-star hotel, the entire place was covered with red banners bearing the word 'happiness'. Tiny red lanterns hung from the trees, and the place was high-spirited. All parking spots have been fully occupied by luxury cars and helicopters. It was like an exhibition for these vehicles.
Because the Sullivan family had reserved the entire hotel, the outside was surrounded by security, and they wouldn't let even a fly enter.
Inside the largest and most extravagant Sky Ballroom on the top floor, the wedding aisle was nicely decorated. The aisle was made of pieces of tempered glass with white roses framed inside the glass. There were countless white rose lamps about a meter tall and white cotton clouds on either side of the aisle.
Below the clouds were made beady light bulbs. When they lit up, the entire stage seemed like a large piece of romantic cloud.
Many massive crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, dazzling the whole place as if all the wonders in the world were gathered here.
There were a total of eight hundred tables on both sides of the aisle. As it was almost time, all guests had arrived.
Among them were the Sullivan family's relatives, friends, and business partners from both the political and business industries.
The Sullivan family's second son, Mary, Julian, and five of Emily's bridesmaids, Heather Hales, Lucy Ziegler, Quinn Xander, Susan Cooper, and Felicia Macey, all sat together, waiting for the ceremony to start. Everyone was dressed extravagantly, looking very dignified.
Because there were too many beauties seated at this table, they attracted the gazes of many men present. Hence, the girls were cautious with even a frown or smile.
"It'll be twelve soon. Will Emily make it in time?" Mary looked anxious.
"Yeah. She'll be here soon," Bailey replied calmly, looking confident.
Tony's expression was dark. He was extremely annoyed at Emily.
Julian was elegant. He never spoke a word the whole time.
As for Emily's bridesmaids, while they looked anxious on the outside, they all felt differently on the inside. In fact, they were even hoping that the wedding would get canceled. Emily becoming Tom Sullivan's legal wife was something they had all been envious of on the inside.
"Where's Xyla Quest? Why isn't she here yet as well? Isn't she bringing her husband along today? She can't have backed out because her husband was too ugly, could she?" Having said that, Mary quickly scanned her surroundings with mockery in her tone.
"Perhaps so. I've heard from Emily about him, and I think that Xyla's husband won't be any presentable at all," Felicia smirked.
"But of course. Otherwise, why would she keep their marriage a secret? Emily said that the man might even be a rogue, and I think that it's plausible."
Susan leisurely peeled a longan fruit as she spoke in a small voice, her tone filled with mockery.
"I really want to see just how ugly that person is. In fact, I think that Xyla might not even have the guts to show up today." Mary looked expectantly at the entrance, itching to watch a good show. "Mary, your makeup and hairdo today is really nice. Your peach and pink plaid tube dress make you look like a little princess." Heather started kissing up to Mary.
Mary bloomed into a smile upon hearing this. She looked down at her dress and said, "Thank you."
"It must be because of Mary that our table is getting the most attention of all the guys here." Lucy started echoing the flattery as well.
"That's true, that's true!" Quinn added.
Everyone was chuckling at receiving attention from the guys.
When Mary heard this, the smile on her face widened, and her eyes sparkled.
"It's already 11.50 am. I think Xyla's not coming." Mary took another glance at the door and said.
After that, she sent Xyla a text message. "What's wrong? Is your husband so unpleasant that you're chickening out?"
