Chapter 280

“Ah, look, isn’t that Old Mr. Quillen?” someone exclaimed.

“What? Old Mr. Quillen is here?” another person chimed in, surprised.

The hotel manager’s reception attracted the attention of many onlookers.

Being a prominent business family, the Oatley family quickly identified

Terence Quillen as the wealthiest and most influential figure in Yeringham’s

business realm.

!

The mere mention of Old Mr. Quillen instantly diverted Sebastian’s attention

from Roselynn’s situation, compelling him to approach hurriedly.

The arrival of Terence himself left everyone in a state of utter astonishment.

“O–Old Mr. Quillen, what brings you here?” Sebastian asked in disbelief. This

was a joyous occasion for them, and Terence had voluntarily graced them

with his presence.

Even Sebastian couldn’t fathom the idea that Terence was honoring the

Oatley family. Is he somehow connected to the bride’s family?

However, Sebastian quickly dismissed such thoughts.

After all, the Lowe family was a commoner family. It seemed implausible for

them to have any ties to the prestigious family of Yeringham.

It simply didn’t add up.

“Haha, why is there such liveliness here? Is the wedding ceremony taking

place here?” Terence, having just arrived, was unaware of the situation. Out

of respect for the Lowe family, he approached the members of the Oatley

family, who were hosting the banquet.

“Ah? No…” Sebastian was at a loss for words. If Terence discovered that the

Oatley family’s bride had stolen the necklace, their reputation would be

ruined.

Jennifer understood her husband’s predicament all too well. She harbored

deep resentment toward Roselynn, wondering why their son had chosen

such an unscrupulous woman to marry.

“What’s the matter? Is it inconvenient for you to speak to an outsider like me?”

Terence felt disrespected by the Oatley family’s apparent disregard for him.

Although the Quillen family had no business ties with the Oatley family,

Terence possessed enough influence to dismantle their enterprises with a

mere word.

“Ah? No, no, no…” Sebastian waved his hands repeatedly, but he didn’t know

how to respond to Terence. How could they expose their family’s dirty

laundry?
