"What about Harrod?""We have enough people to play the game so we don't need him! Haha! He is just a kid. Let him play on his own!" Tiffany said mercilessly.They had a few snacks and went to sleep.On Ivy's way back to her room, she glanced into the poker room.Lilith spotted her and said, "Welcome home, Ivy. How was work today?""Great. Aunt Lilith, are you hungry? I brought you guys some snacks." Ivy set the snacks she brought aside."Hurry to bed, Ivy! We will be going to bed soon as well." Avery smiled gently at Ivy."Okay. I will go to sleep now." Ivy returned to her room.Oddly, she did not feel tired at all despite waking up early that morning and not taking a nap that afternoon.She lay awake in bed, daydreaming, when she realized why she could not sleep. She reached for her phone. She had yet to send a message to Lucas[Mr. Lucas, it's New Year's here in Aryadelle. I spent a wonderful and unforgettable night surrounded by family and friends. They all love me, and
Chapter 2888
"They sure kept the news of the wedding a secret! We didn't hear anything about it until now!""Yeah! I heard that the press is not invited! If we manage to get something, even if it's just a photo of the wedding, we are going to be famous!""Dream on! If they didn't invite any reporters, I'm sure no one can get into the wedding hall unless they are invited!""It's not exactly impossible to sneak in... You can do so before the wedding, like pretending to be a part of the hotel staff.""The hotel is unlikely to send a newbie to the wedding hall to serve such important guests! You are being naive! Even if you manage to get in, they won't allow you to carry any cameras! There are bound to be multiple security checks.""But the manager said that whoever gets information or photos of the wedding gets a cash reward of 15,600 dollars! 15,600 dollar! I can just rest for the rest of the year if I win that reward.""It's not that much, though, considering that this is Eric Santos' wedding!

"Yeah! He is rich and likes to keep a low profile, just like his dad," another guest commented as he took out a gold bar from the gift bag.Shelly was instantly blinded by the gold bar and wondered, "Is that what gifts between rich people look like?! They just give each other cars and gold bars?!"She thought about how her family lived in poverty when her mother fell sick, and she was overwhelmed by bitterness"I wonder what kind of woman he likes! I asked his parents about it and wanted to set him up with girls a few times, but he just won't accept it. His parents said that they can't control him!""Of course, they can't. Hayden is just as accomplished as his dad! A man that brilliant couldn't possibly be a mama's boy.""Layla is getting married now, and Hayden too should be starting on his family. My daughter is head over heels for Hayden. It is a shame that Hayden will never be interested in her.""Haha! Everyone loves Hayden! He is young, successful, and rich. He inherited hi

After she changed, she returned to the event hall. Hayden was already gone and so were most of the guests.Shelly forced herself to remain calm so that no one would suspect her."Eric, are you really not tired?" Layla asked Eric.She wanted him to rest as they had woken up early that morning. Since Elliot and Hayden had redirected most of the guests to another hall and the others were taking care of the female guests, the married couple could finally catch a break.Eric shook his head. "I'm not tired. You can go take a nap if you are.""I'm not tired either! I am just excited to be married." Layla smiled gently. "I didn't really get the feeling that we are married until today. Being a bride at my wedding feels far more realistic than getting the marriage certificate.""Why don't you change out of your heels, at least?" Eric suggested."Okay."Shelly watched as Eric and Layla left the hall and wanted to follow them. However, if she stalked them, she would definitely look suspici

"It's a shame that there's no internet here. You won't be able to send me the photos!" Shelly sighed."There's internet here! Don't you know about the private internet network?" The little girl pulled Shelly to a specific area and said, "Just scan this code and you will be able to connect to the private network."Shelly was instantly impressed but did not understand why the venue would block the internet, only to set up a private network for the guests."Is there something unique about this private network?" she thought but did not ask the little girl about it.The little girl was unlikely to know the answer and asking such questions would only draw attention to herself. As a safety measure, Shelly did not connect to the private network and said, "Does your smartwatch have Bluetooth? Do you know what that is?""Of course! Both my parents have Bluetooth AirPods!"Shelly blushed at how knowledgeable the little girl was and repeated her question, "So does your smartwatch has Bluet

Even if she did manage to get close to Hayden, he might not believe that she had overheard such a conversation in the bathroom.There was a chance that the people who were plotting against him were his relatives, so it was only natural for Hayden to believe his own relatives over a stranger.If Hayden found out that Shelly was a reporter, he might get his bodyguard to throw her out.Shelly shook her head and thought, "I can't risk getting exposed, nor can I afford to cross Hayden Tate. But then... I don't have the heart to watch as he gets hurt..."After a few moments of hesitation, she decided to change back into the uniform."Poppy, I heard that you have been playing with a lady. Where's she?" The little girl's mother returned to the hall and asked her daughter."She said she needs to do something else and left. I don't know where she went." The little girl unlocked her smartwatch to show her mother the photos. "The lady took some photos of me and they look great."The woman g

Hayden smiled. "Of course." He shot the waiter a look, and the waiter immediately set a chair down next to Hayden.Lola sat down and her mother left after saying a few words to the others.Lola kept her eyes trained on the glass of juice Hayden was holding.Perhaps Hayden was feeling a little ill from drinking too much, so he finished his juice right away."Would you like more?" Lola asked."I will do it." Hayden picked up the jug of juice and poured himself another glass. "Have you graduated?""No. I'm still in university.""What are you majoring in?" Hayden had been drinking the entire day, and it would be a lie to say that he was completely sober.He looked at Lola gently. It was not an expression he would show strangers if he was his usual self."Archaeology," Lola said. "I picked it myself because that's what I'm interested in. My parents let me do what I want.""As long as that's what you like. It's hard to master anything that you don't have a passion for, regardless o

Hayden stilled and turned to look at Shelly. "Is there any ice water?"He felt as though his entire body was on fire and desperately wanted a glass of ice water."O- of course!" Shelly immediately went to bring him a glass of ice water, and on her way, she spotted a slim woman coming her way.Alarmed, she instantly realized that this was the woman who plotted to sleep with Hayden.Shelly added a few pieces of ice into a glass of water and immediately hurried back to Hayden."Lola, why are you here?" When Hayden spotted Lola, he realized what had happened.He started feeling hot after drinking the juice, which was given to him by Eric's aunt.He had managed to keep a leveled head despite all the alcoholic drinks he had consumed, so it became clear that something was wrong with the juice."Hayden, you seem ill. I was worried, so I came over to see if I can take care of you," Lola said gently as she approached Hayden.Shelly stood behind Lola with the glass of water, not daring t
