More guests were invited to the modern wedding in the afternoon, as the open field in the manor was much larger than a soccer field. Countless luxury cars of the world’s top brands arrived one after another.
The venue was adorned with enchanting decors complete with the ethereal allure of dry ice, which wafted gently to create a whimsical and otherworldly ambiance. Each guest who attended the wedding had an extraordinary background and came from all over the world.
When Roxanne appeared in her wedding gown, all the socialites and ladies from the higher echelons of society were in awe of her beauty. They all felt that only Roxanne was worthy of Lucian.
Taking in her appearance, image, temperament, or ability-everything matched perfectly. Naturally, the wedding was not without its share of surprises.
Archie and Benny made a grand entrance by arriving in a hot air balloon, accompanied by: security personnel, and showering petals onto the ground below.
Meanwhile, Estella descended safely from a zipline in her traditional dress, appearing like a magical fairy. She then handed Lucian and Roxanne a pair of rings. In front of a larger crowd, they once again recited their vows before the priest and exchanged their wedding rings.
Lucian then gently kissed his wife’s forehead. He opted to forgo the toast that was supposed to follow the ceremony, as he was concerned that Roxanne might be weary and in need of rest.
After all, she had been awake since three in the morning. In the end, Elias and Sonya represented the newlyweds to entertain the guests for the rest of the afternoon.
At the wedding, a tacit agreement seemed to have been reached among all the guests, as no one took pictures during the ceremony. It was widely acknowledged that doing so would have breached the expected decorum for such a dignified event. Therefore, not a single photo leaked from the entire event.
The news of Lucian and Roxanne’s wedding did not surface on the internet until evening, but when it did, it quickly made headlines on major websites. Countless netizens began actively discussing the newlyweds.
Of course, it also inevitably sparked a controversy. While some regarded Lucian and Roxanne as a match made in heaven, others felt that Roxanne was not as competent as some had claimed.
They also opined that her reputation as a miracle doctor, combined with her various investments, might not be entirely genuine. Nevertheless, Lucian and Roxanne chose to ignore the criticism and smiled, allowing others to say what they wished.
While some were pleased with the turn of events, some were not. Christina, who was on a luxury cruise heading back to Hawen, was hopping mad when she learned that it was Roxanne’s wedding day. She gritted her teeth, and a sharp glint flashed across her eyes.
In a shabby rented apartment in Horington, Winnie gave the drunken Grant an earful, and soon, an argument erupted between them.
Meanwhile, Shawn from the Crawford family. was not invited to the wedding. His cousin, Jonas Crawford, took his place at the ceremony. An opportunity finally came knocking on Jonas’ door. It’s time for me to take Lucian on.
After the ceremony, Roxanne slept for a couple of hours. When she woke up and walked to the living hall, she noticed the banquet in the open field was nearing its end.
Madilyn, with a flushed face and eyes slightly glazed from alcohol, got up to her. “I almost forgot-I promised to give you a big gift!” Madilyn’s speech was noticeably slower than usual.
Noticing her unsteady state, Roxanne quickly helped her up to prevent her from collapsing. She did forget the gift that Madilyn had promised her. What could it be? Madilyn rummaged through her bag and fished something out of it. It was a copy of the house deed.
Roxanne knitted her brows. “Don’t tell me you’re going to give me a house. I don’t need another house. Look, we already have this big manor.”
Madilyn waved her hand dismissively, gave her the house deed, and grinned. “You’re right. I’m giving you a house. You gave me a mansion, so in return, I’m giving you another property. Don’t worry, my salary as the director is quite substantial, and my mother has also contributed some money as well, so we bought it for you!”
Roxanne wondered why her best friend would go to such great lengths to buy her a property. There must be something special about the house.
With that, she went through the house deed and looked at the address. Instantly, she was stunned. Isn’t this the old house my mom and I used to live in when I was a child?
Many years ago, her father, Grant Jarvis, sold the house for a mansion. Roxanne looked up at her best friend, her eyes filled with excitement. “Madilyn, how thoughtful of you to do this for me. I can’t believe you bought it back. Thank you so much!”
“I knew you would like it!” Madilyn chuckled. Suddenly, her eyelids grew heavier, and she nearly fell over. Out of nowhere, a figure appeared quickly and caught her just in time.
“Take care of her for me, Jonathan!” Roxanne smiled. After keeping the house deed, she left the living hall and went to look for her husband.
