Chapter 785 - Wedding ceremony (J&J) (1) (2/2)
Noah didn't pay attention to those two. He was completely focused on the screen which is showing the girl who is looking like a fairy… but he knows very well that behind that delicate fairy appearance is a vicious demoness who can break a person in a second. At that thought, Noah shivered in anticipation of approaching Sarah. She might talk to him… and if he is lucky, she might hit him also. Ah, how much he will enjoy if that beautiful demoness hits him again. Her power is intoxicating, and he craves to feel it again.
Liam nudged Paul and gestured toward Madison who was standing a bit further away, but in plain sight.
Madison's eyes are glued to the screen and she has such a whirlwind of emotions which she doesn't know how to handle. The man she craves for is right there, on that screen… further down, on that beach… but why is he looking so gently at that other girl? Is that the same girl in silvery dress from two nights ago? If she is, then who is the resort-owner person she spoke with yesterday? They look alike, but they are definitely two different persons. What's up with that hand holding? Why are they so intimate? How can he be so caring toward that nobody when he was so vicious to her two nights ago? She still remembers that he told her to get out of his sight and to play dead. He was so ruthless… Is it because of her? Because of that bitch? Madison snorted. It is her who should be by Aiden's side!
”W-O-W! If someone told me that Aiden White can look at a woman so gently, I would not believe it if I didn't see this with my own eyes…”, one young lady said in a low voice, but Madison heard her.
”What did you say?”, Madison hissed while turning toward the voice. There was number of girls and she didn't know which one spoke, so she glared at all of them with crazy eyes. ”Do you think he loves her? That is not love! It's just lust!”
Madison's raised voice drew attention from nearby people.
”Madison!”, Mr. Turner showed up from who knows where and held onto Madison's shoulders.
”Calm down. Don't you dare cause a scene here!”, he said in a low but firm voice. ”Look what you did!”
Only then Madison realized that the stem of the champagne glass in her hand snapped in two. There was a small cut on her palm, but she refused to get it treated. Her gaze moved back to the screen.
”Kyra, dear, isn't that your friend, Madison?”, an older woman seated at a table not far away from Madison, asked Kyra.
”Mother, she is not my friend. Do you think that I will associate myself with such a crude person who is causing a scene?”, Kyra responded to her mother.
Kyra's mother nodded in approval.
Madison was not aware that Kyra is close by. She was focused on a large screen in front of her. Madison inhaled sharply in surprise when she recognized Sophia as a woman who bashed her verbally earlier that day.
”Why is she there?”, Madison asked her father.
”CEO Hill?”, Mr. Turner asked and when Madison confirmed with a nod, he explained: ”If you checked the wedding invitation, you would see that the bride's name is JoAnna Hill. CEO Hill is probably her sister or a cousin.”
As the wedding procession continued, everyone was in their own thoughts.
By now, whispers about EY designing all the dresses for the bridesmaids were spreading through the audience, and some women even got their phones to check what 'EY fashion' is, because everyone was talking about it. Ellie beamed thinking that this is so much better marketing than any campaign she did so far. Not that she needs further marketing, but it can't hurt to have more super-rich customers interested in her products. And this is what this audience is… gathering of super-rich and powerful. And the most amusing part is that she gets to hear them praising her work, and they don't know that person behind all of that is right in front of them.
When all the guys lined up behind Jasper, and all the girls behind Ellie, music changed, and everyone's gazes moved toward end of the carpet.
All seated guests stood up while gasps filled the space when JoAnna stepped on the carpet with Edward by her side.
