CHAPTER 111
A wedding even the billionaires would envy was taking place on the rooftop of the 77-floor building owned by the Lynn family.Every floor had something special prepared for the guests, whether it be top music artists performing or magicians ready to display all the tricks in their books. However, all those that entered the Lynn Tower were escorted by a pair of beautiful female and male escorts who were also couples in real life.The guests were taken to the elevator so they could head straight to the rooftop where the wedding was taking place. After the wedding finished, the guests could then explore the tower and be entertained for the rest of the day. This was the plan carefully crafted by Charlotte Lynn herself.Most of Russell’s friends weren’t invited as the Lynn family didn’t want his friends whispering and talking about Russell’s past before other guests.A Ferrari and a few top sports cars stopped outside the main entrance. Roddick and his friends got out of the cars, but inst

CHAPTER 112
Before the wedding started, Liam told the Bennett family these words, “Stick to the script, but don’t talk about your past unless someone asks you. Lie as little as possible.”Arnold and Jennifer perfectly executed these words so much so they completely avoided talking about their past. Even when someone asked them what the Bennett family does these days for them to have gotten the attention of Liam Lynn, they just replied, “It’s not because of our greatness but because of our son. He and Kyra fell in love, and we were also distant relatives, so… things just worked out this way.”Even the billionaires couldn’t hide their envy toward Jennifer and Arnold and especially Russell.The rich young men who had their eyes on Kyra for a while now gave rough handshakes to Russell, and some even went out of their way to say, “you’re one lucky bastard,” though only joking on the surface.Russell countered them, saying, “There’s no such thing as luck. Every marriage is decided in heaven; so is mine

CHAPTER 113
Unlike the rest of the Lynn tower, there were minimalistic designs used on the rooftop so as not to distract the guests from what they were supposed to look at. Not counting the wine and the honey cake that was being served, only a few thousand dollars were spent on the decorations and everything else one could see on the rooftop.There was a beautiful shade cast over the rooftop because of the clouds screening the sun. Nevertheless, Kyra looked more beautiful than the sun itself in her white wedding gown. Her smile overshadowed the bouquet of white flowers she was carrying. Most men and even women couldn’t take their eyes off Kyra. Jessica was no exception.However, none of these people had any idea what Kyra was going through. Locking hands with her Man of Honor, Roddick, whom she now knew was surely behind her late boyfriend’s death was nothing short of a nightmare.If it was possible, she wanted it to be someone else, but her parents insisted on Roddick being the one to escort her

CHAPTER 114
A sudden kiss from the most gorgeous woman Russell had ever seen and known in his life was supposed to make him feel wonderful and ecstatic, but for some reason, he didn’t feel half as thrilled as when Jesscia had kissed him, even though Kyra’s kiss was a rather rough one.Kyra probably wanted to make others believe that they were really lovers, and so she put extra pressure into the kiss. Realizing that, Russell ended up bending her to the side and continued to kiss her. Seconds passed, but neither of them moaned or made a sound. Their lips might be touching hard, but their hearts still felt distant. The photos, however, were being taken in hundreds.Once their lips parted, Kyra briefly glanced at Roddick, which Russell didn’t like. It made him think as if Kyra was trying to make Roddick angry by kissing him.Naturally, Roddick’s brows exercised quite a bit. He hated it when things that belonged to him were being taken away by someone else. He hated both Kyra and Russell so much more

CHAPTER 115
Jessica was standing at the elevator, so she could go down.The doors opened.A family of three were inside. Jessica immediately recognized one of them, who was Selena Sterling, a world famous actress.Jessica’s eyes broadened as Selena walked past her. Breathing the profound perfume on her body made Jessica feel better already.Moreover, the young guy and woman with Selena were both extremely handsome to look at. Jessica squinted her eyes and soon realized that this was the same man that had met her in the morning.“You…” she ended up pointing her finger toward him. “Aren’t you the pizza-delivery guy?”“Yes,” he shook her hand. “You’re Jessica, right? I’m Benjamin.”Selena cast an annoyed glance at Benjamin.“I-It’s nice seeing you,” Benjamin let go of Jessica’s hand. “She’s my wife, and that’s my mother-in-law,” he whispered to Jessica, telling about the two women that were with him, but then spoke aloud. “I’m a driver in the Sterling family. Meet my owners.”Jessica was left speech

CHAPTER 116
“Who’s this handsome guy?” Charlotte looked at Benjamin with a pleasant smile. “He’s our driver,” replied Selena, staring at both Kyra and Russell. “His name is Benjamin.” “D-Driver?” Kyra couldn’t believe it. She thought Rebecca and Benjamin were both wife and husband. Russell also thought the same. (A-Are drivers supposed to be this handsome?) Benjamin tried to smile, despite what was going in his mind. “Benjamin? Wait…” Russell recognized Benjamin just now. “I met you before, didn’t I? You're the pizza guy who saved me.” Everyone was startled to hear that. “I didn’t get to properly thank you back then,” Russell stepped forward and gratefully looked at Benjamin and touched his hands. “Russell?” Liam asked. “What do you mean he saved you?” “Uh, that’s…” Russell didn’t know what to say. “A little while ago,” Benjamin said, “he was falling from a cliff. I just happened to be there, so I caught him and pulled him back up.” “This…” Liam was greatly surprised to hear that. Kyra

CHAPTER 117
The wedding day of Kyra and all the arrangements that the Lynn family had made for the guests in the 77 floors of the Lynn tower was talked about in the media nonstop throughout the day and the night on a few news and entertainment channels that the Lynn family either directly owned or partnered with.On the 77th floor, Liam Lynn personally talked with the guests that came to his room and offered them any help if necessary, either monetarily or in other ways.On the 7th floor, Charlotte also did a similar thing. She paid off many loans of the guests, especially of those that were invited by Arnold and Jennifer, so these people kept praising Jennifer and Arnold and the Lynn family nonstop while they were at the Lynn tower and even after going home. Everyone that heard their story really envied these people’s luck. And they also wanted to get acquainted with Jennifer and Arnold because they might receive similar blessings sometime in the future. As long as the Bennett family was related

CHAPTER 118
Russell’s heart was beating extremely fast. He still couldn’t quite believe that he married the most beautiful girl in the school and was now sitting on the same bed as her, waiting for him to grab her and do something.But he had literally zero experience, so he didn’t know how to proceed. His hand slowly reached out and rested on her thigh.Kyra glanced at him with a bit of a cold look. “We are married, but how can you touch me like this?”Russell quickly withdrew his hand, but he looked at her with a confused expression. “I, uh…” he didn’t know what to say. How else was he supposed to touch her?“I thought you would wait, but you are in such a hurry,” Kyra blurted. “It seems you’re no different from most other men I’ve met. They’ve all looked for opportunities to touch me. The only difference is that you waited until we got married.”“T-That’s not true,” Russell tried to talk, but she raised her hand.“Don’t try to explain yourself as that’ll make you look even more stupid,” she ha

CHAPTER 119
On the same night of the wedding day, on the rooftop of the Creed Tech company, Regan kept on drinking, despite Gage trying to stop him.“You should stop, Boss,” Gage warned. “You have drunk too much already. If you continue like this, you’ll end up vomiting.”“Idiot. I’m drinking because I’m happy, so it won’t hurt even if I drink until dawn,” Regan blurted and gulped on wine. “Haah, my marriage happened about sixty years ago, and I don’t even remember what happened that night. Do you know why?”Gage shook his head.“I have seen everything there’s to see in a woman’s body before marriage itself,” Regan said, looking slightly guilty. “I knew my wife before marriage, and so there was nothing left for us both to see after marriage. Maybe that’s why we’ve quarreled all the time. We were like love birds before marriage, but something changed after marriage. We lost all the thrill, and life felt boring. We ended up divorcing in the end for reasons that feel so stupid right now.”“I’m sorry

CHAPTER 120
Russell woke up shivering and realized that he had actually slept on the couch. He surely didn’t expect that he’d sleep on the couch the very first night after marriage.“You finally woke up,” Kyra’s icy voice reached him. She was sitting on the bed and was no longer in her wedding gown. She was wearing regular clothes now. It was a sparkling blue dress that was pretty attractive. “You should freshen up quickly. We’ll be going out on a honeymoon for three days.”Russell’s face lit up. He immediately stood like a spring chicken. “D-Did I hear it correctly? W-We’re going on a honeymoon?”“Don’t overthink,” Kyra said with a plain face. “We’re only going on a honeymoon to fool the public. It’s a mandatory thing newly wed couples do, right? That’s what my mom said. Still, we won’t be touching each other on this honeymoon.”Russell’s shoulders flailed. He had always imagined the honeymoon being a time of sexual bliss where the husband and wife wouldn’t want to be apart from each other even
