Uncle's Love: My Sweet Little Wife
Chapter 136 An Engagement Party With No Bride

Nolan entered the room and asked the makeup artist to leave first because he had something to say to Kara.

Looking at Kara who had put on makeup, his eyes were full of surprise. Her delicate facial features were a little colorful, and her eyes looked beautiful, with rosy lips and pretty white teeth. She should have such an outstanding appearance at such a young age, she would definitely be more beautiful in a few years.

"Miss Kara, would you be willing to be Mr. James's bride?"

Kara frowned, "Uncle Nolan, don't joke around. It's Uncle James and Kathleen who are having the engagement party."

Nolan closed the dressing room and walked to her with a respectful attitude.

"Your cousin missed her appointment and did not show up."

"How is this possible?" Kara suddenly stood up in disbelief.

Kathleen wanted to become Uncle James's fiancee even in her dreams, so how could she do not show up today?

"I'm telling the truth. If she came, she would be waiting in this dressing room." Nolan explained.

Kara frowned. If Kathleen was not there, what about Uncle James?

If those people in the lobby knew that the bride had not come, they would definitely laugh at Uncle James and say that the bride had abandoned him and ran away from him. No, she didn't like people talking bad about Uncle James at all!

"Kathleen didn't come. Why don't you go replace her? Why would you come to replace me?"

Nolan chuckled. Kara looked innocent and cute, but she was not stupid at all. She knew that Nolan came to replace her for a purpose.

"Mr. James and Madam Hemming had a verbal agreement. If he is not engaged today, he will dismiss the president of the SA Group. Therefore, the engagement party must be held as usual." Kara clenched her fists and bit her lips, not uttering a word.

Nolan continued, "I believe you don't want Mr. James to make a fool of himself in front of the guests either, right?"

"Of course I don't." Kara took a deep breath, not wanting him to continue beating around the bush, "Nolan, just tell me what you want."

Nolan shook his head helplessly. He felt that the game that Mr. James played was quite tiring.

"So I'm asking you. Are you willing to be Mr. James's bride?"

"You want me to replace Kathleen?"

Kara trembled, her nails pinched her palms, wanting to escape from here.

Nolan wanted her to replace Kathleen!

"No, that's not true," he said.

Nolan felt that there was some misunderstanding in this, so he quickly shook his head and explained, "Miss Kara, Mr. James and Madam Hemming set an agreement that Mr. James must get engaged today, but they did not say who the bride must be.

If Mr. James had agreed to the engagement with Kathleen, he would not have pushed the date back until today. Do you understand what I mean?"

Kara frowned and had a thought in her mind, but she could not believe it.

Nolan scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Miss Kara, you may not easily believe what I said, but I promise you with my personality that I am not lying."

"Mr. James will postpone the engagement until you become an adult. The engagement party arranged today is also for you.

Since the news of the engagement got spread out, many people had been planning to harm Kathleen. Kathleen was just a cover for Mr. James to replace those who coveted his position. This is also a way for Mr. James to protect you."

Kara's eyes widened in shock. When she thought of how James had joked about her being his bride several times, she was confused.

Someone wanted to set Kathleen up and Kara got some indecent photos of Kathleen. Was it because someone did not want Mr. James to get engaged to Kathleen?

"Although it's a little cruel, Mr. James is being watched by people every day. He was worried that he would not be able to protect you, so he put in a lot of effort to do a scene." Nolan pleaded for James. Kara bit her lips, feeling angry and annoyed. James kept saying that he wouldn't force her.

But he still carefully planned the engagement party, waiting for her to get tricked into being his bride.

Now if she did not agree, not only would he resign from the position of president of the SA Group, he would also become a joke.

The high and mighty Mr. James was actually stood up by the bride at the engagement party.

But if she agreed, she could never get over it.

Seeing that Kara was still silent, Nolan was a little anxious.

"The engagement party will begin soon. Mr. James is now greeting the guests. If you agree, I will take you out there."

"If you don't agree, I'll take you back to the villa."

At this time, the engagement hall was bustling.

At the engagement party, all the guests were from the upper class of NK City. Mr. James was considered a dream lover of women, and many noble ladies wanted to see him.

They wondered who would be so charming that Mr. James would want to marry.

Of course, many women wanted to see if the bride had anything better than themselves.

"James, have you really thought it through? When you get engaged, it means that you want to get married. Marriage is a lifetime thing and a lifetime is very long. Do you really want to get married to that woman?"

Maybe she will give birth to a child. The child she gives birth to will need you to take care of. If you are not sure, don't give that woman a chance to harm you.

As James listened to Rory's nagging, James glanced at him in annoyance and made him shut up.

Rory was not afraid of him, "I think the little girl I saw last time in the studio is not bad. If you were with her, I would not say anything about it, but I heard that Kathleen pretends to be a graceful lady, but she does not act like one at all."

She has a bad reputation. If you marry her, she will definitely turn your life upside down. If you are engaged, you will divorce sooner or later.

Listening to Rory, a chatterbox, Will slightly smiled and said, "James, although Rory is too chatty, his main meaning is clear. Kathleen is not suitable for you."

Today was James's engagement party. As good friends, Rory and Will had to attend. Silence had not returned from his mission.

"Yes, I know." James still had an indifferent expression on his face.

Rory and Will looked at each other and could not understand him.

Both of them knew that no one could stop what James wanted to do.

But he was willing to marry a woman he did not like and to live with her for the rest of his life. How was that possible! Moreover, Kathleen was not a woman who lived a good life.

Seeing that the time for the engagement was almost up, but there was no bride yet, the Hemmings was worried. "James, why isn't the bride here yet? Is there something wrong?" Zoey came over and asked. James, who was wearing a black suit, looked at the entrance of the hall and felt a little nervous.

However, his calm and handsome face was noble and cold, and no one could see his thoughts.

"If she comes the engagement party will continue. If she doesn't, the engagement banquet will be canceled."

She said that he should not force her.

James could only let her make the decision.

If she came, he would marry her.

"How can this be?"

Zoey swept her gaze across the guests. They were all staring at the Hemmings. If the engagement party was canceled halfway, wouldn't it disgrace the Hemmings? Therefore, this engagement banquet must not be canceled!

"James, it can't be a trick, right?"

James pursed his lips and stared at Emily who was behind Zoey. His lips curled up slightly.

"Grandma, if I don't want to get engaged, do you think I will attend the engagement party?"

Old Mrs. Han was anxious and worried. She pulled Emily to the dressing room to see the bride's situation.

Emily comforted Zoey but when she turned around, a smug smile flashed across her face.

The bride would not be in the makeup room, so Emily took a few more steps, she hurried back and whispered in Zoey's ear.

The bride was missing.

The old lady frowned and looked at James. She knew exactly how many people were staring at James.

It was because she knew and that was why she thought of a way to protect Kathleen so that this engagement party would go on, but the Quains was in a mess, she just pretended not to see it.

Kathleen disappeared at this time, so there must be someone behind who wanted to see the Hemmings make a fool of themselves!

"James, this engagement party cannot be canceled!" Zoey's tone was tough and she did not allow anyone to interfere.

"How are we going to proceed with the engagement party without any bride?" James sneered.
