Unaware of the reason behind Josie’s actions, Justin remained clueless.
However, Dexter had already gathered all the information. He quickly connected the dots, feeling overwhelmed by the truth. Eventually, it transformed into a deep sense of guilt, weighing heavily on his heart.
He stood there, chuckling softly, as if he were the loneliest person in the world. Soon, a destructive desire for revenge surged within him, threatening to consume him completely.
Larry had already retrieved his phone and said, “Claudia’s men aren’t the best. They probably thought they could keep this matter covert and undiscovered. Our people have already apprehended them. However, there’s some bad news. There’s still a team tracking us. What should we do now?”
“We need to find a way to shake them off. We have to bring Justin and Ruby back to Wavery as quickly as possible,” Dexter’s voice was as cold and decisive as ice.
“Understood.”
The route from the Olsen Residence to the hotel was adorned with fresh flowers and red carpets, creating a grand spectacle. Alongside the wedding, the stock price of Russell Group had been soaring high but had now reached its limit.
The wedding was advantageous for both families.
The wedding took place at the Olsen family’s hotel, which had been cleared out for the day to accommodate the guests.
The attendees were all relatives and business partners of both families, as well as employees from the marketplace. The crowd was substantial, creating a grand spectacle.
Upon arriving at the scene, the bodyguards noticed numerous paparazzi lurking around. They asked for instructions on how to handle the situation.
Dexter remained indifferent. “It’s not right to sneak photos on such a grand occasion. Let’s invite them all in.”
Claudia, who was by his side, frowned. “Dex, this isn’t appropriate.”
“Mrs. Olsen,” he glanced sideways, his tone indifferent. “Today, we have numerous guests. It’s inevitable that some may slip through the cracks. Instead of hiding and covering up, why not be open? Otherwise, others might think we are stingy, don’t you agree?”
His reasoning was sound. Claudia fell silent for a moment before finally agreeing, “Today is, after all, your wedding day. Arrange it however you wish.
Dexter watched her walk away, his thoughts drifting into the distance.
Soon, the media arrived, portraying the wedding ceremony as even more grandiose.
Meanwhile, Johnny had stepped out for a moment and managed to bring in a large television. He placed it in front of Josie and spent some time fiddling with it before finally getting the picture to come on.
Josie squinted her eyes. It was a live broadcast, with a bustling crowd, but she immediately spotted the man greeting the guests.
Dressed in formal attire, he stood tall and dignified next to Heather, engaging with the guests in a polite and measured manner.
Heather, dressed in a traditional wedding dress, stood gracefully and quietly by his side, their presence complementing each other beautifully.
Josie’s pupils slightly contracted.
She had imagined this scenario countless times, but she never thought that when the moment truly arrived, it would stir up such intense emotions within her.
Clearly, her heart was broken.
Johnny also saw the scene and whispered softly, “So beautiful…”
Josie caught on and raised an eyebrow. “Do you like her?”
Johnny spun around, his hand poised to slap her. “Stop talking nonsense.”
Josie wasn’t scared at all. “You can’t even admit your feelings, despite your size. Are you even a man?”
Johnny waved his hand again. “Stop meddling in my affairs. As for you, your ex-husband is about to get married. You must be full of regrets.”
Upon hearing this, Josie replied playfully, “I don’t mind at all. At least I’ve shared a bed with him. What about you? You don’t even dare to confess your feelings, do you? Because you know Heather doesn’t think highly of you. If she found out, she would only feel disgusted and distance herself from you.”
Johnny’s face alternated between pale and green. After a while, he lowered his hand. “All that matters is her happiness.”
Hearing that, Josie thought Johnny was a simp.
