"Alright." Minerva nodded and put down the hem of the wedding dress in her hand. "Then, I'll stay here and wait, or... Shall we go straight to the hall and wait for him there?" Quill raised his hand and glanced at the ton his wristwatch. He whispered, "It's not tyet. If he hasn't shown up later, I'll take you to the hall, but..." He paused when he spoke until this point. He seemed to be a little hesitant in whether or not he should finish the rest of his sentence.
"But what?" Naturally, Minerva could hear the hesitation in his tone. She raised her head and glanced at him. Although there was no expression on his face, his gaze seemed very deep. It could be seen that he was not in a good mood currently.
His expression beccomplicated when he saw Minerva asking him this question. He lowered his voice and asked, "Are you sure if he doesn't appear on time, you are going to wait for him in the hall?" She questioned, "Why not?" "The hall is packed with guests. If... he doesn't even show up in the hall, then you..." He wanted to say that she would be embarrassed by that time. After all, she was still a lady.
"Quill." However, before he could finish her words, he was interrupted by her.
Minerva stared at him, and her red lips gradually parted into a smile. Her voice was calm.
"As I said, I give him all my trust. He didn't tellthat he wouldn't show up, so I am going to wait for him." Quill was speechless.
Looking at Minerva, he didn't know what to say. In fact, as her elder brother, he couldn't make too many decisions for her. Now that she had made up her mind, he had nothing else to say.
He could only nod while putting on a smile. "Since you've made up your mind, then I'll listen to you." "Thank you, Quill." As tpassed by, it was still quite a distance from the wedding venue to the airport. It was too late for Juliette when she finally arrived at the airport.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey had set out from the hotel to the hall, and Minerva called Maddox again, but once again, she was directed to his voicemail again.
Although she went to his voicemail countless times, she still kept calling him like a machine.
Vera started to tear up upon seeing this.
She looked out of the window and dared not look at her anymore.
In fact, she always knew that Minerva was a stubborn person. She was not the kind of person who would go back on her word. As long as she believed in it, she was going to do it by hook or by crook. As her close friend, she had to stand by her side no matter what.
However, now, seeing her in this state, Vera realized that she couldn't bear seeing this any longer. She would rather have Minerva lose her temper instead of acting like she did now.
When they arrived at the hall, all the relatives and friends were waiting there.
Because they had planned a grand wedding, there were a ton of reporters and people on the scene.
When Minerva got out of the car, countless reporters were carrying their cameras and chasing after her.
Quill turned around and asked his assistant, "Is there still no news from Juliette?" The assistant looked at his phone and shook his head. "She toldthat she was stuck in the traffic 15 minutes ago. Perhaps Mr. Yardley is also stuck in the traffic." He thought, "It's fine if he was stuck in a traffic jam, but if it's something else..." His eyes grew dim, and the aura around him becgloomy.
"Maddox, you'd better keep your promise. If you don't, don't blhim for keeping Minerva away from you," he thought.
The wedding was about to begin, but the groom was nowhere to be found. Only Minerva, who was wearing a wedding dress, stood there, looking lonely.
All the reporters saw what was happening and felt that there was something wrong.
"What's going on? Why is there only the bride? We've been here for so long. Is it not tfor the wedding to start yet?" "I heard that this wedding is an arranged marriage between the Yardley Corporation and the Hanover Corporation of the North City. But... The one from the Yardley Corporation has not shown up. Could it be that he didn't want to get married anymore? "Oh, I don't know... We received a message saying that the wedding is going to be held here today, so we hurried over." "I heard that Young Master Yardley from the Yardley Corporation is very good-looking. He is usually not close to women, but many young ladies wish to be married to him. Could this news be released by the Hanover family? Is it what they want?" "No, such a thing had been spread out throughout the country for many years. If the Hanover family unilaterally spread the news, the Yardley Corporation would not turn a blind eye to it." "What's going on now?" A group of onlookers was throwing their own assumptions.
Minerva had countless cameras pointed towards her, and the flashing lights were blinding her. There were a ton of people on the scene, but the only one she cared about was Maddox.
She didn't know where he was now. Was there a traffic jam on the way here? Was the flight delayed? Did he not get on the flight at all...
Buzz...
The phone vibrated, and Minerva's entire body trembled. She took out the phone that she was holding onto tightly for the entire time. She was so anxious that she didn't even see who was calling, and she directly picked up the phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Maddox, are you going to arrive? A lot of reporters are here. I'm waiting for you in the hall. When are you going to..." "Minerva, it's me." However, a gentle and clear voice echoed from the other end of the phone.
The light of hope in Minerva's eyes gradually dimmed. She hesitated for a while and finally figured out whom the voice belonged to. Her red lips paused for a while, and then she called out, "Benedict?" "You were disappointed by my voice, weren't you?" Minerva was dumbfounded.
She did not expect him to call her at this time. She had waited so long for Maddox, and she thought that it was him...
Thus, she answered the phone directly before she even looked at who was the one calling.
"I saw the news. Is the wedding going to be held soon?" "Yes." "I definitely won't be able to attend your wedding е in time. Furthermore Furthermore, Maddox won't be happy when he sees me. I can only congratulate you over the phone." "Thank you." She was in a bad mood now, so naturally, she wasn't in the mood to talk to him.
Benedict probably knew that she didn't even want to talk to him, so he gave a wry smile.
"Well, then I won't bother you anymore. You must be happy." As Minerva hung up the phone, Juliette's assistant, Tracy's phone rang.
"Juliette?" "What? I know!"
After Tracy hung up the phone, she immediately reported to Quill m "President Hanover, Juliette just caled to say that Mr. Yardley's plane is in trouble!" X
