Chapter 629 Bumping Into Each Other
Sophia dipped her head a fraction before she entered the hotel with Willow under the accompaniment
of a few bodyguards.
When they stepped into the elevator, Zachary, Candace, and Felicia were also there.
It so happened that Felicia remarked, “Gwendolyn's dowry is too pathetic with just two shops and two
condominiums. Would she go to Grandpa and kick up a fuss?”
As Sophia and Willow entered the elevator, worry inundated the latter.
Sophia would inevitably be reminded of the past upon seeing this sc*mbag. Why did they have to bump
into each other?
She pursed her lips. Meanwhile, Candace was still talking to Felicia, oblivious to the identity of the two
women who had just joined them.
On the contrary, Zachary recognized Willow the instant he laid eyes on her once more.
She's Isabella's sister. No wonder I found her familiar back at Star Mansion. Why is she here?
Apprehension flooded him. When Isabella left back then, he told everyone she had passed away. Even
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGwendolyn did not know the truth.
For that reason, he was rather anxious at Willow's sudden appearance. Could it be that Isabella is
back?
At that thought, restlessness inexplicably gripped him.
He lifted a hand and yanked at his tie, failing to notice the woman with a veil.
When Candace saw him doing that, she reached out and helped him to straighten his tie.
“What are you doing, Darling? You're the father of the bride today, so you can't be disheveled.”
Hearing the woman's coquettish voice, Willow was downright sickened.
Sophia swept a placid gaze over Candace. The latter was the one who put her through such suffering
back then that she ended up leaving her own daughter.
Yet, she was unusually calm to see the woman then.
Sensing her gaze, Candace mistakenly assumed that Sophia found her beautiful. Thus, she lifted a
hand and straightened her hair before flashing the latter a proud smile.
Finally snapping, Willow questioned frostily, “Do you still remember me, Zachary? Your daughter is
getting married, but such is your attitude? Oh well, a man like you is probably heartless anyway.”
Zachary had been preoccupied with his thoughts earlier and paid no mind to his wife and daughter's
conversation.
After hearing her words then, he was certain that she was indeed there to attend Gwendolyn's
wedding.
Well, that makes sense since she's Gwen's aunt.
His gaze darkened a shade. He had been trying to forget the past all these years, acting beyond
indifferent and callous toward Gwendolyn for no other reason than to forget Isabella.
However, the sight of the latter's sister at that moment rendered everything he did in the past futile.
“You should indeed be present for Gwen's wedding, Willow. If she were to learn that her aunt—”
“Shut up. Today is her big day, so don't mention the past.”
Following Willow's snarl, Zachary stopped short. His gaze dimmed, and bitterness brewed within him.
Candace heard the woman bellowing at her husband and shot her a glare.
“Who are you? What right do you have to poke your nose into our family's affairs?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBoth Willow and Sophia cut their eyes at her, the look in them icy. Candace tilted her head back, having
no choice but to do so to meet their gazes as she was shorter than the two women.
Felicia hastily tugged at her. “Mom, Mom, stop it.”
At that, Candace was entirely confounded. Why must I compromise? Are these two women big shots,
and I can't afford to offend them?
“Why must I back down? They're picking on your father. Never mind that you aren't helping, but you're
even stopping me from reasoning with them! Do you even have a conscience?”
Felicia frantically gave her pointed looks, but her mother remained oblivious and acted like a shrew.
Lifting a hand, she propped it against her forehead.
This is the most renowned designer at present. With Mom having offended her such, it'd be nigh
impossible to obtain DK's clothes and handbag in the future. It's already hard to buy them, and I even
have plans to implore her to design my wedding gown. After this row, I likely won't have the opportunity
to wear DK's wedding gown.
“All right, that's enough,” Zachary interjected coldly.
Candace was utterly stumped. Even he is ordering me to zip my mouth? But I'm helping him!
