As the wedding was almost about to start, the guests began arriving one after another. Kevan and Dylan got busy attending to them. Many guests recognized Kevan and wanted to establish rapport with him for future business opportunities. They offered him cigarettes and asked for photos together. Some even tried to set him up with someone.Initially, Kevan was willing to entertain them. He wanted to show courtesy for Dylan and the Davis family's sake. However, he was never known for his patience. Every guest from either side treated him like a sightseeing spot to tick off their list. He reached his limit. He excused himself to get some fresh air.The ballroom was spacious. He easily found an unoccupied corner with an open window. The cold breeze that drifted in brought some clarity to his thoughts.He glanced at his phone. There were no messages. His grip on the phone tightened as his heart also seemed to tighten. It had been four days since his return from Aldovia, and Larissa had n

Lucas' sincere attitude made Kevan's stone heart feel a little bit of guilt. When Kevan thought of what he had commanded people to do a few days ago, he did not dare to look Lucas in the eye. He only replied, "It's an honor to attend your wedding.""Kevan, thanks for coming. Thank you so much for your hard work." Walter Davis walked over and spoke with great cheer, the wrinkles on his face relaxing a great deal.The Davis family was friends with the Rogers family. The elders of both families interacted with each other frequently. Although Kevan did not like attending social events, he was still more familiar with Walter and Martha Barker in these circles."Dylan is working so much harder than me." Kevan pushed all the credit to Dylan in just a few words.Hearing this, Walter looked across the venue. Dylan was still busy welcoming guests and accepting gifts with Sharon as they stood side by side, looking like a perfect couple. He did not have any energy left to pay atten

"We have something else we need to do." Dylan grabbed Kevan's arm.Kevan's voice was a bit hoarse, probably because he had not spoken in a while, so his voice changed rather unnaturally when he spoke up in response to what Dylan said.Sharon eyed Dylan's hand on Kevan's arm thoughtfully before nodding. She left.The moment Sharon left, Kevan removed his arm from Dylan's grasp, smoothing out the wrinkles in his sleeve with a disgusted frown on his face."Why don't I know that we have something else to do?" he asked in a low voice. It was at a volume that only he and Dylan could hear.Dylan's gaze on him was complicated. However, he did not say what he wanted to say originally because there were outsiders nearby. He only sighed softly and said, "Let's talk somewhere else."There were several lounges near the ballroom. They were originally meant for guests of the feast who came early. Now that everyone was already seated in the ballroom, the lounges were empty.Dylan pushed open th

The musical voice sounded bossy. The four in the parking lot—no matter in the dark or in the light, turned over in surprise.Sasha had somehow changed out of her elaborate wedding gown, and she was now wearing a dress with a shorter skirt, which allowed her to move more freely. She had a thick down jacket wrapped around her to keep the cold away, and she was about a hundred away from Lucas and Lana.Lucas' face changed at once. He frantically shoved Lana away and tried to explain to Sasha. "Listen to me, Sasha. It's not what it looks like!"It was the exact script that a cheater would use in a TV show.Sasha kept smiling. However, it was not as happy and sweet as before. Instead, it was only cold and mocking now.Lucas froze in his footsteps, having been about to walk to her. He was suddenly swamped under a great wave of fear."Sasha!" A series of tapping high heels sounded on the floor, coming closer and closer. Sharon hurried over and stopped next to Sasha.She did not know wh

Sasha's calmness fell apart when she saw the knife. She knew that if she did nothing, Lana would really stab Lucas due to how unstable she was right now.Seeing the internal struggle Sasha was going through, Sharon grabbed her hand before she could respond."Sasha, don't." Sharon shook her head minutely. Even her normally confident expression had a trace of fear in it.Sasha really did love Lucas. She loved him so much that she would definitely die for him. But she did not want to die here, nor did she want to die by the knife of that crazy woman. She looked at Lucas, who was also looking at her.His eyes held terrible grief as well as deep love.Sasha's heart trembled sharply, and fear gripped her tightly."Sasha." Lucas was smiling, his voice was amazingly steady. "No matter what anyone says, I only need you to believe that I really do love you.""Luc …" Sasha was about to speak when she saw his face darken. He reached back to grip Lana's wrist.Startled, Lana's hand pushed f
