Chapter 557

Meanwhile, the wedding hosted at the Times Hotel had just ended with a blast. This time, it wasn’t justWendy’s neighbors from her community that had attended the wedding; even the people from Ed’svillage all showed up. Matthew didn’t accept any of their gifts or cash offerings for the wedding.

This wedding was no longer about the money; after all, how could they even put a price on all thewedding convoy and the booking fees for the whole Times Hotel? Matthew and Julian simply wanted tothank Ed for the kindness he showed them in the past.

Of course, Wendy and Ed’s neighbors were extremely pleased by the whole situation. They had actuallydiscussed the matter as they were on the way to the hotel—they all agreed that they’d be willing to payup to 10,000 just to enter Times Hotel. This place wasn’t somewhere that you’d be able to enter any dayeven with 10,000 in your pocket; that was why they were all willing to offer such great amounts.

However, what Matthew did came as a pleasant surprise to all of them. They were naturally overjoyedwhen they heard that he refused to take any wedding offerings. Since they were all working-classpeople, a few thousand meant quite a lot to them. All of these people were also envious of Ed. If only wehad two rich friends like he does, they thought.

Ed’s parents were especially proud during the wedding. Throughout the night, there were people whostill rushed to enter the hotel even halfway through the dinner. Some of these were distant relatives ofeither Ed or Wendy. They hadn’t planned on attending initially, but once the word spread that thewedding was to be hosted in Times Hotel, all of them rushed over immediately.

Even some of their classmates hurried over after they heard the news. This included people like Leo,Grace, Elaine, and so on; all of them were seated within the crowd after they rushed over. They, too,hadn’t planned on attending Ed’s wedding, but they couldn’t stop themselves from going after they heardthat the wedding was hosted in Times Hotel. They had never gotten the chance to enter before this, afterall. More importantly, they wanted to take a look at how impressive Matthew and Julian were and howgrand of a wedding they could manage to host.

Fortunately, Times Hotel was big enough to fit everyone comfortably despite the large number ofattendees. Everyone in the crowd hung their mouths open in surprise after the majestic wedding ended.The wedding wasn’t just an extremely luxurious one; they also had a good number of celebrities whoappeared as guest performers. Some of them were extremely well-known, which only further heightenedthe overall standards of this wedding.

Leo, Grace, and Elaine’s eyes nearly turned dry from staring at the whole wedding in shock. Althoughthey knew that Matthew and Julian were no longer the people they used to be, they were still stunned towitness the entire wedding happening before their eyes. How much power do Matthew and Julian have?How could it be possible for them to host a wedding of this scale? This isn’t something that can be donewith just money; how many connections and people do they need to make this work?

Just as the wedding was about to come to an end, Julian got up on stage. With a loud voice, heannounced, “From now on, Ed will be the managing director of Cunningham Group’s Wellness Herbary.Three months from now, I will quit my position in Cunningham Group’s Wellness Herbary, and Ed will bethe one that will take over my role as the CEO!”

Excitement filled the crowd the minute they heard the news. After all, it was just supposed to be awedding; who among the guests would’ve expected to become a witness of Ed’s road to success?

Cunningham Group’s Wellness Herbary was one of the largest companies in the whole of Eastcliff; it washard for people to even get a job there. Who would’ve thought that Ed would get to take full control overthe entire business?!

Even Ed was dumbfounded by this sudden statement. “W-What are you talking about, Julian?Cunningham Group’s Wellness Herbary belongs to you; w-what are you trying to do?”
