A girl in a mint green dress, her hair tied up but a few strands gently falling to frame her beautiful face. Andrea was excited as she entered the room, which should have been bustling with the wedding ceremony by now, but...
In front of Andrea was a scene like this, a lavishly decorated place like this, but inside, there were only a few people. Where did all the guests go?
Housekeeper Lam Ha was standing next to the three sisters, gently supporting them as they struggled to process what was happening. Principal Han was also present, standing beside him was the man she had encountered at the hospital. Anita looked exhausted as everything unfolded.
Andrea was in shock, her eyes wide open at the sight before her.
She looked straight ahead, and the wedding bouquet was lying at the corner of Elena's dress, but where was Elena?
What about her older sister?
Andrea couldn't understand what was happening before her, the silence in the room was terrifying, only hearing Elena's sobs, tears streaming down her face, smudging her makeup. Her hands gripped onto her dress tightly, as if unable to bear it any longer, Elena collapsed to her knees.
The curtain behind Elena slowly opened, revealing a video clip. The clip showed the preparations for the Lewis family's wedding... and finally, the image of a lonely bride holding a bouquet in an empty wedding ceremony, with no groom. That exact image was of Elena displayed on the screen.
"There are still many surprises in store for the Lewis family. 'Cyrus'," the voiceover said.
Everyone witnessed it, clearly this was a plan, a plan that her older sister had to endure the most pain from. Andrea still didn't know who this Cyrus was. Who exactly was he and why did he cause this?
"Cyrus, why would you treat me like this... this isn't the truth..."
Elena stood up, lifting her dress and running out of the room, a small crown falling to the ground.
"Elena... ah..."
....Dad...."
Phillip was so shocked that he fell to the ground.
"Phillip, calm down."
Han Khai Phong helped Phillip up, while she also ran over. Everyone was in a panic as Phillip lost consciousness.
"Anita, go after her, don't let Elena do anything reckless.." Anita and Robert chased after Elena, both very concerned for her unstable state of mind.
"What's the result?"
A cold figure with a glass of wine in hand stood by the window, looking out.
"It's quite dramatic. The news has been published in all the newspapers. Phillip was taken to the hospital due to the shock, and Elena has left at some point. She looks very shocked."
The secretary was reporting to him when she heard a dissatisfied voice from outside.
"Tu Lang, don't interfere.."
"Brother, why did you do this?"
Mandy was extremely dissatisfied with her brother's actions.
"Cyrus, I'm sorry, I can't stop Mandy."
Tu Lang apologized to him.
"It's fine, Mandy should know about this anyway."
He took a sip of red wine and continued calmly.
"In the past, Phillip did something that even heaven and earth could forgive. But now, he and Elena are resorting to means in the business world to strengthen HISMART. It's time for the Nghiem family to pay for their actions, and as for Elena... it's best for you not to get involved with her. I don't want you to have anything to do with her."
His words sounded like a prediction of things to come. Mandy slowly understood what was happening, she sighed. So it turns out that everything was arranged by him. Cyrus invited Mandy to attend, as if to give those people the belief that he would come, but he also arranged for Tu Lang to pick Mandy up and bring her back.
"The wedding was just part of your revenge plan, so why did you want me to come back to attend your wedding? There was no wedding happening."
"The wedding still took place.."
"Didn't you say Elena did something bad? Then why did you marry her?"
The statement caught Mandy off guard, indeed, Mandy couldn't believe Elena was capable of such things.
"Elena? She doesn't deserve it. The only one who became my wife, and the only sister-in-law you have... that person is Andrea."
"BANG"
A loud explosion echoed in Mandy's mind, she couldn't understand what was happening. Tu Lang stood beside her, his cold smile still present, true to his nature, still possessive and controlling. When he spoke a sentence, it couldn't be disobeyed. Just like the words he had just spoken, it was a definite affirmation.
