Chapter 31

Chapter 31 What a Disgrace! Mia was chatting with Amy and Ruth. The staff came over, knocked on the door, and informed them,“Ms. Armstrong, it’s time. The bride should appear. The ceremony is about to begin.” Mia nodded, andAmy put down the white veil for her. Ruth walked behind her and helped her hold her train. At thatmoment, Emily had just gotten out of the taxi. She looked up at the hotel in front of her, and it wasbustling with noise. She was wearing an ordinary green dress, it couldn’t even be called a gown.Everyone else was dressed up. In comparison, she looked very plain. Emily squeezed the invitation inher hand and took a deep breath. She told herself that she would leave immediately after taking hermother’s necklace. She took the elevator and slowly went upstairs to the banquet hall. The weddingmarch was playing in the banquet hall. Mia was wearing a white wedding dress and high heels. Sheslowly walked down the spiral staircase. Emily was disgusted at the look on Mia’s face. The confident smile of a gleeful winner. “Ms. Armstrongis here!” The flashing lights of the cameras were blinding. At the foot of the stairs, a tall man wearing anoble tuxedo stood there and looked at Mia affectionately His gaze was like a knight looking at aprincess, deep and devout. Mia went downstairs and elegantly reached out her hand. He held her handtightly. The couple walked down the red carpet hand in hand. As Emily watched this scene, sheremembered how this very same man had looked deep into her eyes lovingly, so many years ago, andpromised: “Emily, I will take your hand and lead you into the halls of marriage. Together we’ll walk thered carpet and we’ll be together forever.” In the end, he’d wasted no time in getting with someone else.Emily felt disgusted and ridiculous. In the past, she was really stupid to believe such words.Fortunately… she no longer felt anything in her heart now!

“This Ms. Armstrong is really beautiful. She and the young master of the Johnson family are a perfectmatch for each other. They are both eye-catching and a perfect match.” The guests whispered. “Isn’t that right? This Mia is a big star! I wonder how good-looking their children will be in the future.”

Another person responded, watching with interest. They changed the topic and talked about Emily. Oneperson looked around mysteriously and said in a low voice, “Actually, Charles Johnson’s originalintended was not Mia.” “I know. It was the elder miss of the Armstrong family, Emily. She lost hervirginity before she was supposed to get married. It’s so embarrassing.” Someone asked curiously,“Why didn’t she come? Isn’t today her sister’s wedding?” A mocking voice sounded. “This is not herreal flesh-and-blood sister. Why would she be here? Charles Johnson is her old lover. It would be anembarrassment for her to show up here. Besides, she has been kicked out by her father, William. She’sno longer a lady of the Armstrong household.” It was not just them. Many people were comparing Emily and Mia. It had been a huge scandal thatyear. Many of the people present knew about it. “Mia’s mother, Emma, is not William’s original wife. Hecheated on her, and that’s where Mia came from.” They looked at Emma and William with a slyexpression. “Although this Mia is not from his first wife, she is successful, good looking, and also a star.She is giving face to the Armstrong family. That big miss is really a disgrace.” The guests next to Emilyclicked their tongues in disgust. “That’s why William chased her out. All these years, there has been nonews of her.” A faint sigh came from the side. To everybody else, the lives of the rich and famous werebut idle gossip. As they spoke, they forgot where they were and their voices got louder and louder.William, who was sitting in the front row and watching the ceremony, also heard these discussions. His mood was complicated. He felt proud because of Mia, but he also felt humiliated because of Emily.William’s face turned all different colors, and he clenched his teeth. How could he have such a terrible daughter as Emily!? Emma sat next to him and naturally heard thegossip too. The smile on her face was gentle, and she pretended not to hear it. So what if she hadgotten where she was through underhanded means? Didn’t she get the last laugh? Didn’t her and Miahave all the wealth and fame they wanted now? She privately nudged William with her arm and said in a low voice, “Smith family’s people are here. WillEmily not come? It will be difficult to explain to the Smith family if we can’t give them the bride theywant.” William frowned and said, “When the ceremony is over, I will call her. Let Mia and Charles finishthe wedding first.”
