Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 865
The atmosphere at the scene was fermenting, everyone looked at Edwards Wayne and Lily who were just walking down from the stage with bewildered eyes, no one had expected they would receive such an explosive piece of news.It was extremely coincidental, as though someone was purposefully trying to destroy this joyous day, purposely wanting to fill up Wayne Family.
Obviously, Lanreina had also heard the discussion from the people around her, and her face instantly froze and as pale as snow, and because of fear and unease, her body started to tremble. Joshua Wayne, who was sitting beside her, had a dark and ugly expression, and his gaze turned cold.
As for Edwards Wayne who was seated, the big palm holding onto the cup suddenly tensed up, veins popped out on the back of his hand, he intentionally looked towards John Wayne, the coldness from Edwards Wayne's eyes chilled John Wayne's spines.
Lily's beautiful face paled a little. Obviously, she didn't expect such a thing to happen on such a joyous day like this. Although it wasn't a fabrication, but a fact, if someone chose to spread the news today, then it would mean that they had intentionally messed things up.
The old man and the old lady did not look too good either. Especially when the old man held his breath, he started coughing. His cough was so fierce that the people around him started feeling worried. The Wayne brothers, as well as the John Wayne and his son,, all rushed over at once, worrying about the old man's condition.
"Grandfather, are you alright?" Edwards Wayne said in a low voice, concerned.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Edwards Wayne hurriedly ordered Larry, who was at the side, "Bring the doctor in, send my grandfather back."
Larry nodded and replied. Not long later, the medical team of two nurses and two doctors succession walked in anxiously. The old man had difficulty breathing, although he had some things to say, he could say nothing as his chest was stuffy and his face was green. He could not do anything, so the doctor brought him home quickly.
The old lady looked anxious as she said bitterly, "What wicked person is it to have announced this news at such a time? "He is simply inhumane. He would rather tear down ten churches than destroy a single marriage. This person is going punished by the Providence."
John Wayne's expression did not change, but his heart sank, looking at his mother's angry look, he regretted it for a moment.
Edwards Wayne said coldly: "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely find that person. He will definitely have his retribution."
Edwards you must think of a way to suppress the news. Today, your engagement banquet cannot be destroyed no matter what." After the old lady finished her orders, she left in a hurry. She had to take care of the old man.
Edwards Wayne see his grandmother off, his expression instantly turning cold.
Almost 100 tables of guest in the hall were waiting for a good show with astonished faces. This was indeed worth waiting for, they just wanted to see the Edwards Wayne who never embarrassed himself, and how he would explain this matter clearly in front of the crowd.
Although Lily was not his blood related sister, she was still a family member.
The story of the love between Lanreina and Wayne White was also very popular in the circle. Some older people were even invited to their second marriage wedding ceremony years ago.
Lily stood by Edwards Wayne's side, holding onto the hands of two children. The two little fellows were still at a loss, not knowing what had happened, but they had guessed that it was probably not a good thing. Otherwise, their father's Mummy's expression would not be so ugly.
Lanreina sat in her seat with her head lowered, a trace of pain and helplessness evident in her expression.
Joshua Wayne glared at John Wayne coldly, wishing that he could smash his face into pieces with a single punch.
John Wayne seemed to know the burning rage and hatred in Joshua Wayne's eyes. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Such a beautiful feast was ruined just like that!"
However, Edwards Wayne let out a cold laugh, "Indeed, it's so regretful. Someone's scheme might not work."
John Wayne's face did not look that pleased with himself, it was very normal, but after hearing Edwards Wayne's words, his expression changed slightly.
Edwards Wayne stretched out his hand to grip Lily's arm, as if he was silently consoling her.
Lily was startled, she watched as Edwards Wayne turned around and walked up the stairs again, standing at a high place, and took the microphone from the etiquette host's hand.
When they saw Edwards Wayne on stage, everyone held their breath, waiting for him to give an explanation of what happened.
Just as Edwards Wayne was about to say something, Lanreina who had been sitting motionlessly suddenly also walked up the stage quickly.
Before Edwards Wayne could speak, she immediately took the microphone from his hands.
Her eyes were still gentle as they flickered with tears, glancing over all the guests.
"My dear guest, I know that you have received news about the marriage between me and Mr. Wayne White. Actually, you don't need to look at my son and daughter-in-law with surprise and suspicion in your eyes, their relationship is legal and moral. Wayne White and I have long ended our marriage, so I hope that you do not suspect my son's marriage"
Lanreina's voice was calm, her emotions sincere. Everyone believed everything she said.
After a moment of surprise, the expression of the guests at the scene returned to calmness.
He had thought that there would be a good show to watch, but it turned out to just be a false alarm.
Lanreina and Wayne White had already divorced, so Edwards Wayne's marriage to him was no longer hindered by their relationship.
But John Wayne's and Jack Wayne's expressions changed the momentLanreina finished speaking, as embarrassment appeared in their eyes.
John Wayne held the cup in his hand and exerted a bit of force, his eyes filled with cold light and ridicule.
He didn't know whether he was laughing at himself or mocking others.
As Jack Wayne sat beside him, waves started to rise in his heart.
Back then, he had only told John Wayne that he was Wayne White's biological daughter, but they did not investigate her relationship between Wayne White. "Heh, it seems like everything isn't going well!" John Wayne spoke lightly, as if he was speaking to Jack Wayne.
Jack Wayne's heart skipped a beat, he picked up his cup and drank his wine, not replying.
After Lanreina finished speaking, she went off the stage and returned to her seat.
Lily gratefully looked at her, and felt she was truly blessed for having Edwards Wayne, a truly forgiving man, and a considerate mother.
At the scene, everyone was enjoying their food and wine as they continued to discuss the happy marriage.
John Wayne intentionally came to watch a good show, but now that the good show had ended, he felt like he had turned into a big joke. Thus, he stood up, walked towards Edwards Wayne, and left after saying goodbye.
