Mrs. Goreng, after hearing all this, was left dumbfounded, unable to believe her ears. She looked up at the woman in front of her, stuttering as she asked, "What... what did you say?"Seizing the opportunity, the server grabbed Mrs. Goreng's arm, chuckled arrogantly, and pushed her into a corner. "Seems like your old ears are failing you. Let me repeat it for you. Your son, Edward, traded a lifetime of happiness to save your life. But where did all this trouble come from? You were wealthy, so why the sudden hardship? If you had just swallowed your pride, your son wouldn't have to endure such a miserable life, and he wouldn't have to involve himself in this political marriage."The server's words felt like deadly stabs to Mrs. Goreng's heart, leaving her dizzy. She recalled Edward's words. Was it all a façade?Her heart felt as if it had just withstood an enormous blow. However, Mrs. Goreng managed to maintain some last shreds of clarity and resistance. Edward had never lied to her bef
“Lie, you lie!” Mrs. Goreng covered her ears, her head was hurting like hell, she couldn't believe what the woman had just said. It is clear that Felicia married Edward for love, it is clear that this was not a political marriage. She felt the feelings that Felicia had for Edward, and moreover, Edward would not lie to her.“What is your intention when you tell me these things! Don't think your baseless words can fool me! That's is no way!"The female waitress burst out laughing when she heard that. She knew that if she said these things, Mrs. Goreng would react like that. However, if she came here today and dared to say those things, she must have been prepared in advance.“Lady Goreng, my words are not baseless.” Saying that, the waitress took out an old phone from her pocket. After a few steps, she brought a video clip to Mrs. Goreng's house, or more accurately, an extracted camera clip.“Lady Goreng, look what your beloved son did to save you!”In the video, a young man is pleading
Felicia looked back in amazement; her mother had previously instructed that the bride should meet no one before the wedding, and everyone should create a private space for her. It was considered a tradition to show dignity and ceremony. So why was there someone behind her? Could it be that the person behind was unaware of this tradition?“Felicia, what’s wrong?” Seeing Felicia silent, the woman behind her asked again.“Sorry, but I must respectfully decline your proposal. We have a tradition that the bride, before getting married, should meet no one outside, especially when I don’t even know who you are.”The woman smiled gently and whispered in Felicia’s ear, “Felicia, this tradition is outdated, and you don’t have to follow your mother’s strict rules!”“Thank you for your kind suggestion, but I prefer to stick to our traditions.” Felicia tactfully declined; she didn’t know the woman, and there was no reason for her to follow her.The woman frowned slightly, initially assuming that F
" What did you say?" The other woman raised her face to look at Felicia. She really didn't understand what Felicia meant. Furthermore, it was clear that Felicia was already planning to step forward, just a little more, just one more step and her intention would be fulfilled. Felicia's attitude couldn't help but make her feel worried, it seemed like Felicia didn't want to move forward anymore.“Felicia, let's stop talking about unrelated things now! Let's return to the main topic, just take one step forward and I will tell you everything about your future husband. One more step, Felicia.”Felicia said nothing, a slight smile appeared on her lips.“Let me show you something!”After Felicia finished speaking, she leaned back directly. The other woman couldn't help but be startled when she saw that. However, what surprised her even more was that Felicia did not fall back. Felicia's back was floating in the air, but her feet remained firmly on the railing. Felicia's legs felt like they wer
“What’s going on?” Felicia asked while running after her older sister.Olivia rushed forward without pausing, believing the person lying there was in critical condition. At this moment, she had no time to explain further to Felicia.As for Mrs. Goreng, her head pounded like a sledgehammer, and her heart raced to where she felt she couldn’t breathe. Thoughts swirled in her mind, her eyes gradually closing, a tear falling from the corner of her eye. As Mrs. Goreng thought she was about to die, suddenly a slender arm touched her back, incessantly shaking her.“Madam, madam, are you okay?” Olivia spoke while shaking Mrs. Goreng. The situation in front of her left even someone as composed as Olivia, unsure of what to do. The person underneath remained motionless, and she didn’t know what was wrong or how to handle it.“What’s happening?” Felicia urgently asked her sister.“I don’t know; someone fainted here!” Olivia said while looking around, but there was no one else. Only the three of th
“Mom, are you okay?” Edward hurriedly ran back to his mother, his face unable to hide the worry.Mrs. Goreng, upon hearing Edward’s voice, lifted her head, her gaze complex as she looked at him. The story of the other woman kept replaying in her mind. Edward dropped out of school, Edward faced criticism, and Edward married Felicia to provide money for her treatment.“Mom, what’s wrong? How do you feel inside?” Seeing his mother remaining silent, Edward couldn’t help but feel anxious. She was his only family, and no matter how calculated he was in everything, he didn’t want his mother to suffer any harm. Moreover, today was his wedding day, and Mrs. Goreng was his mother; she couldn’t go through anything unfortunate.Mrs. Goreng’s gaze at Edward remained unchanged. It might be pity, remorse; she genuinely wanted an answer from her son. She wanted him to tell her that everything was fabricated, even though she knew deep down that it was a hundred percent true.“Mom, say something! Don’t
The officiant began to read the declaration“Does Miss Felicia Swan accept Mr. Edward Sherwood as her husband and promise to remain faithful to him, in good times as well as in bad times, in sickness and in health, to love and respect Mr. Edward Sherwood every day of your life, right? “."I agree." Felicia tightly held Edward's large hands and nodded slightly. Felicia's eyes began to tear up. Now was that moment she had been waiting for for so long. I wonder if any girl would not be happy when she gets married to the person she loves.The homeowner looked at Felicia and smiled. He felt the love that his daughter standing in front of him had for her groom.“Does Mr. Edward Sherwood accept Miss Felicia Swan as his wife and promise to remain faithful to her, in good times and in bad times, in sickness and in health, to love and honor her every day? in life, right? “.When she heard the officiant's announcement, Felicia's heart skipped a beat. The sauna girl's head turned towards Edward.
“Are you sure?” Edward smirked at Janet. This was the first thing he had said since the incident began.“What do you mean by that?” Janet immediately furrowed her brow, expressing displeasure. She couldn’t believe he could make such irresponsible remarks. In the past month, she had only been involved with one person, and that was Edward. The child in her womb could only be his!Emily quickly joined her teammate, hands on hips, ready to scold. “I can’t believe you can be so irresponsible! Janet is here today, and you still think she’s deceiving you? Or is it because you deceive others so often that you think everyone is like you!”In contrast to the aggressive attitude of Janet and Emily, Edward remained remarkably calm. He gently patted Felicia’s shoulder to reassure her, then slowly approached where Emily was standing.“Emily Sherwood, should I address you as ‘sister’? Even though your mother married my biological father, you’ve also become a Sherwood. Though our blood doesn’t run th
