The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 651 The Stark Contrast

At 3:00 pm sharp, Marcus and Natalie rode in their wedding car to the hotel.

The wedding venue looked even more beautiful than before. Every detail had been carefully checked by Charlotte and the coordinator.

A long red carpet stretched from the entrance of the banquet hall to the stage.

Natalie wore a stunning, form-fitting wedding dress and walked slowly toward the stage, holding William's arm.

Dressed in a black suit with a red tie and a boutonnière pinned to his chest, Marcus watched her approach. Under the soft glow of the lights, Natalie's exquisite gown shimmered like a river of stars.

She looked radiant, like a fairy-tale bride coming to life.

William led Natalie to Marcus, and the ceremony began smoothly as the host's voice echoed through the hall.

Meanwhile, in international waters where no country had control of, a ship slowly moved across the sea. In one of the rooms on the ship, a large screen was mounted on the wall.

Sheldon sat on the couch, while Cassie lay at his feet. Both of them were watching Marcus and Natalie's wedding live on the screen.

"Cassie, do you see that? Mr. Marcus and Mrs. Natalie's wedding is going perfectly," Sheldon said as he took a sip from a thermal cup.

"Wesley and Laura have made up. Marcus and Natalie even served them tea and now call them Mom and Dad. Wesley and Laura will probably get remarried soon. After so many years of being together, they won't throw it away just because of you."

Sheldon chuckled softly. "You spent all that time scheming, and in the end, you got nothing. Let me think... How long has it been since you last ate? Oh, and by the way, I had someone prepare something far stronger than the one you gave Laura. They say it's a hundred times more potent."

He looked down at her, smiling cruelly. "Your hands and legs are already crippled.

If you manage to jump, then good for you. I won't stop you from killing yourself. Cassie, are you ready?"

Sheldon clapped his hands, and someone brought in a box. Inside was a syringe and a small black vial.
