Chapter 21
“SI*t!” Zoey cursed angrily with an envious look on her face.
Corinne was not prepared to argue with Zoey at someone else’s wedding, so she turned and went to the bathroom. By the time she came out, she inadvertently saw a man and a woman chatting at the end of the corridor, and before long, they both sneaked into the storage room together.
If her eyes did not deceive her, then the man was none other than Annie’s groom, Juan. On the other hand, the woman was Zoey, who was wearing a bridesmaid dress the same color as her own.
What could a groom possibly be doing with a bridesmaid on a wedding day?
Inside the storage room.
“You’re heartless, Juan! How could you get married behind my back!”
“Why are you here, Zoey?”
“I’m one of the bridesmaids! I didn’t think the groom would be you! No wonder you haven’t been answering my calls recently!”
“Zoey, I’ve got thirty thousand inside this card. Let’s just treat it as a fee for our breakup! Once you’re done with your bridesmaid duties, make sure to leave without causing any trouble!”
Zoey took the card. “Thirty thousand? Who are you kidding? If you want to break up, you need to give at least NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
a hundred and fifty thousand!”
Juan grew annoyed. “A hundred and fifty thousand? Don’t push your luck, Zoey! I can only give you thirty thousand. Take it or leave it, and don’t blame me for asking the security guards to kick you out!”
When Corinne listened to the quarrel going on inside the storage room, Corinne finally remembered why Juan was so familiar.
Juan had gone to Alpha Enterprises to pick Zoey up before, and since Zoey had always been one to show off, she flaunted Juan around the company because she wanted to show off what a handsome boyfriend she had.
Annie, on the other hand, said that she and Juan have been together for three years, and their love for each. other had been super strong.
Underneath that gentle-looking persona was a cheater, and poor Annie had been so in love with him!
Corinne lowered her gaze and remained expressionless.
Annie was Jeremy’s niece, and there was no reason for her to meddle in the private lives of Jeremy’s relatives. After all, it had nothing to do with her.
—
The wedding soon began with a classic tune-the solemn and romantic ‘Wedding March’.
Annie walked onto the red carpet and made her way toward the man whom she firmly believed would be her life companion…
Below the stage, Zeke had a sudden thought as he watched the wedding ceremony and raised his arm to
nudge Jeremy’s elbow. With a smile, he asked, “Where’s that little girl you married just a few days ago? Why didn’t you bring her with you?”
Jeremy remained silent. His eyes were focused on the stage, where the blue-clad Corinne was standing.
Tommy replied on behalf of Jeremy. “She’s here, Mister Zeke.”
“Here?” Zeke looked left and right. “Where? Why don’t I see her anywhere?”
Tommy pointed to the stage. “She’s up there.”
Zeke glanced at the stage, where the only women except for the bride Annie were the four bridesmaids. Which one’s her?”
He had only either seen Corinne in heavy makeup or covered in a veil, and had never seen her true
appearance yet.
The big screen up on the stage was showing snapshots of the bride and groom’s happy moments together. Meanwhile, the officiant was in the midst of asking the bride to recite her marriage vows…
All of a sudden, the video on the big screen changed abruptly and into a surveillance video, depicting Juan dragging a woman in a bridesmaid dress into the storage room in the corridor.
The entire venue erupted in an uproar.
