Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 116

The wedding day arrived quickly.

The Highline Hotel, a five-star resort close to the beach, was relatively quiet this time of year, making the costs more

affordable.

The ballroom was lavishly decorated, with a romantic sea of pink roses and two rows of columns tied with white ribbons. Sixty-six tables were set up for the reception.

Although it fell short of a true high-society wedding, this was the best the Hastings family could manage.

Over the past few days, invitations from the Hastings family had been sent to everyone, from the three major families to the smallest households. Most esteemed guests only showed up out of respect for the Lewis family. Owen and Harry were chatting with a few important guests while those from smaller families, feeling left out, gathered to gossip.

One said, The Lewis family sure knows how to cut corners. This table couldn't have cost more than a few thousand dollars And the decor? Pretty underwhelming. They clearly don't care much about the bride they're bringing in Another replied, "Not just that. The wedding wasn't even arranged by the Lewis family."

One was surprised. "Really: I thought it was common knowledge that Mr. Lewis and Ms. Hastings were madly in love. They used to be inseparable at all the big social events,"

Another laughed. That's ancient history. Have you seen the rumors online about the Hastings foster daughter in the past six months The Lewis family isn't stupid"

One asked. "Then why are they even bothering with a wedding?

Word has it that Emily drugged Mr. Lewis, and they were caught by the media during well, you know at a hotel. Emily was left
