Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 447

Everyone at the table fell silent upon witnessing Lucas’ actions. The Lane family were simply surprised by what he did, but Mitchell didn’t take too kindly to it.

The guests in the hall were utterly shocked to see Christopher being perfectly fine with our friendly interaction.

If I were an escort, I would probably be viewed as the most powerful escort due to my close relationship with the heirs of Avenport’s two prominent families.

Christopher shot Lucas a look of disgust. “What are you doing here? This place is crowded and has terrible ventilation. It’d be a real pain to call you an ambulance if you end up fainting!”

“Haha, you let me worry about that! Now, how about you pour me a cup of tea and express your gratitude, big guy?” Lucas retorted as he placed a teacup in front of Christopher.

Lucas was extremely polite when talking to Christopher’s parents, but sounded like a completely different person whenever he talked to Christopher. I was so busy recovering from my illness during my time on the island that I didn’t realize they had become such close friends.

Seeing them bicker like kids amused me greatly, and I had forgotten all about the nasty stuff Nathan said and did earlier.

The music was then changed into a romantic one, and Crystal appeared in front of everyone in a stylish wedding gown. The layers of lace, the shiny tiara above her head, and her elegant posture made her© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

look like a proud princess.

She then lifted the hem of her wedding gown and slowly walked across the red carpet as she made her way toward Lyle.

The deafening applause and cheers from the guests sounded like irony to my ears, and I let out a wry chuckle in response.

Crystal is talented, scheming, beautiful, and pretentious. She always knows how to present her best side to everyone, and nothing I ever do affects her in the slightest. Even though most of them knew Crystal was the actual homewrecker, she was still able to claim the moral high ground with her miscarriage and make everyone hate me instead. Most of the guests here tonight are celebrities in Avenport who have benefited from Crystal and have come to support her in view of the kidnapping incident. I mean, that’s exactly why Gordon and the others are here, isn’t it? I’ve always ended up losing my battles with Crystal no matter how hard I fought, and now she has stolen my one and only dream from me… While I sit here in this corner with my horrible reputation, she’s there receiving the praises and blessings from thousands of people…

While I was lost in my train of thoughts, Christopher reached out and wrapped his arm around my waist. “You’re going to look even prettier at your wedding,” he said while gazing deeply and affectionately into my eyes.

My smile returned upon hearing that as I realized I should be thanking Crystal for letting me have an amazing man like Christopher all to myself.

I pouted and pretended to be angry at him. “Are you saying that I’m not pretty now, then?”

He leaned in closer and whispered into my ear, “Oh, you’re always pretty to me!”

I then shifted my attention back toward Lyle and Crystal who were making their marriage vows with a priest on the stage. When the two of them were exchanging their rings, Lyle shot me a quick glance before putting the ring on Crystal’s finger.

Suddenly, a loud voice was heard coming from the door. “What do you mean my name isn’t on the guest list? That’s my grandson getting married! Are you all not planning on inviting me all along?”
