Slumdog Billionaire Husband
Chapter 977

Chapter 977 Strange Gifts

The wedding was held at a resort in the suburbs of Sacramento. There was a lawn, a hotel, and a hot spring

It was a five-star resort owned by Universe Group, with a decent level of specifications However, on this day. the hotel was completely empty. At the entrance of the hotel, Theo held a microphone and kept announcing the gifts loudly.

"Mr. Lam from the Lam family of the Washington has arrived! Mr. Lam presents a Diamond Card from New Bank and a pair of emerald disks!"

"Mr. Jackson from the Jackson family of the Washington, and the head of Dark Net is here, presenting a pair of emerald bracelets!"

"Mr. Herman from Los Angeles is here, presenting...

He announced the arrival of guests and the gifts that were brought one by one.

Beside him, Claude covered his mouth and snickered. Next to Claude, Aleen was holding a child in her arms The child was giggling happily, seemingly affected by the festive atmosphere.

"Stop laughing!" Theo glared at him. "You, being the weakest here, are supposed to announce the guests and gifts. You made me look like a eunuch now."

"Not like, you already are. No wonder you've never gotten married," Claude said with a smile.

The wedding was held by Gerald alone.

At first, Jolie planned to host the wedding together with Gerald, but she gave up the idea after hearing that it was going to be broadcasted worldwide.

She sat on the side and took notes.

"Take your time. I'll go check on Boss first. When he went to steal the bride in the morning, he almost got played to death by Carolyn and the others. I'm going to check if he's nervous!" Claude said. "His hands were shaking this morning. He's much more nervous than I was at that time. I was much calm

when I got married back then," Claude continued proudly.

Cameras were everywhere in the hotel, and the live broadcast had also begun on various platforms.

This wedding was known as the wedding of the century, and the whole world was watching it. The live broadcast platforms were almost over-limit.

Meanwhile, Gerald and Valery were sitting backstage, engaged in a session.

There were countless phones and computers in front of them.

It was a part of their wedding ceremony, which was to greet people from all over the world who were following their wedding.

No matter which device was in front of them, there were pop-ups rolling past, and most of them carried the same message. [Wishing Gerald and Valery a happy wedding!]

All kinds of comments in various languages flooded in. They were a couple who received the blessings of the whole world on this day.

During the session, Gerald and Valery also interacted with the audience as well as answered some questions.

The session lasted for half an hour, and after that they proceeded with the wedding as usual, leaving the live streaming to others.

Just as Gerald and Valery were interacting with the audience backstage, a person dressed in a black cloak stood at the entrance, looking at the bustling entrance with a strange glint in his eyes.

He was holding a red color box in his right hand. It seemed to be a wedding gift.

But he never make a move.

The wedding was grand, with many people coming and going.

The crowd continued until almost eleven o'clock and then began to thin out as the wedding began.

Jolie and Theo sat over at the corner. Theo drank some water to moisten his throat before saying, "Damn, I feel like my throat's about to smoke."

"There shouldn't be any more people coming. We should head inside too, the wedding should be starting soon." He stretched lazily.

"Okay!" Jolie got up and put away the notebook in her hand.

Just then, Theo saw a man in a black cloak and a black mask carrying a box walking towards the entrance.

His appearance quickly attracted Theo's attention and his expression changed slightly. Although there was no sign of Vital Energy from the person, Theo didn't dare to be careless at all. This person's outfit was too abnormal.

"Who are you?" Theo stared at him and asked.

"Hehehe..." The man let out a strange laugh and lifted the box in his hand. "I'm here to congratulate Gerald and Valery on their wedding. After all, they are heroes of our human race."

"Take off your mask," Theo sneered.

The masked man sneered too.

Theo sensed that something was amiss and his instincts told him to act. He channeled his Vital Energy and

lunged forward to apprehend the stranger, determined to unravel the mystery shrouding him.

However, as soon as he grabbed him, the person in front of him disappeared, as if the person had became

invisible in that instant.

"Huh?" Theo's expression changed abruptly. “It's a Flame Decayar attribute-related ability! Who are you?"

However, the man remained silent. He slowly placed the box on the ground and chuckled softly. "Please help me to congratulate Gerald on his wedding."

After saying that, he bowed slightly, and then his whole body became blurry until he disappeared in front of

Gu Bai and the others.

Jolie and the others were shocked by this scene.

"Should we throw the box? Could it be a bomb or something?" asked Jolie.

Theo frowned. "That's possible. Although Gerald is said to be a hero on Earth and is respected by many people, many people hate him, but this person is Flame Decayer. I have a terrible thought but I can't explain that to you just yet. You guys back away from the box, I'll open it and see what's inside."

Jolie and the others nodded. After they left, Theo used his Vital Energy to protect his body, and then carefully opened the red box.

When he opened the box and saw what was inside, Theo's expression instantly froze.

In Ries City, Havotune.

Anebel, with white hair, sat in a luxurious hotel.

"You mean Gerald and his group did not arrive here?" Sheryl frowned.

"Yeah, he left Azuro right after the trial was over. He only helped me participate in the trial and was not really my vassal. As for where they are now, I don't know either," said Anabel.

"Is that so?" Sheryl frowned. "Then let's form an alliance. Are you interested?"

"I have no objection!" Anabel nodded. "But I heard that the Underground Palace can't be opened?"

"The periphery of the Underground Palace has been almost completely opened, and almost all the things inside have been looted by major forces. But the core palaces cannot be opened. Many people were shot and killed just by approaching it, including supreme Flame Decayer. The Underground Palace is confirmed to be an ancient emperor's tomb!" said Sheryl.

"Can't be opened?" Anabel frowned deeply.

"Yes. In front of the Underground Palace, there are carvings of a dragon and a phoenix. According to everyone's speculation, it may need the owners of the Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone to open it together." Sheryl continued in excitement, "There is a predetermined fate to everything, and the appearance of the Underground Palace may very well mean that the owners of the Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone of our generation have also appeared."

Anabel's expression became a little unnatural when she heard this.

Others might not know, but Anabel was quite clear that the Dragon Bone and Phoenix Bone were owned by Carolyn and Gerald!
