Chapter 282 Where Did I Offend You

At half past ten in the morning, Lachlan drove a bright red Ferrari to Imperial View Villa Area and picked up Miranda to head to the Golden Family Hotel where the wedding was being held. Emmanuel, Cara, Shelly and other bridesmaids also arrived with the convoy.

Today, the Golden Family Hotel was not open for regular business and had been completely transformed for this wedding. The top floor ballroom where the ceremony would take place was decorated luxuriously and festively.

Approaching noon, Emmanuel and Cara stood at the entrance of the ballroom on the top floor welcoming guests while Mason took care of things at the hotel entrance below.

Emmanuel frowned as he checked his watch. It was already past eleven o'clock but only a few scattered guests had arrived so far. "Emmanuel, what's going on? Why are there so few people?" Cara asked anxiously.

"I don't know... maybe traffic is bad on weekends," Emmanuel replied reassuringly.

Just then, someone from upstairs shouted loudly, "The Lowe family! Mrs. Lowe has arrived!" Emmanuel and Cara exchanged a knowing smile before looking down towards end of hallway with anticipation. Cara let out a small hum as she seemed pleased about something too. She hadn't planned on holding any grudges against Victoria today since it was such an auspicious occasion; in fact, she even wanted to improve their relationship somewhat if possible!

However, when Victoria along with Romeo and Harlow finally emerged from elevator, they looked anything but happy or festive. Instead, there seemed to be an underlying sense of mockery or derision in their expressions which made it all seem like some kind of joke!

Moreover, they were empty-handed without any gifts or others whatsoever...

"Mom! You guys made it!" exclaimed Emmanuel cheerfully while Cara politely greeted Victoria before acknowledging Romeo and Harlow as well.

Seeing Romeo father-daughter duo here today caught them off guard though. After all, didn't they want Victoria dead?

But since this was such an important day for everyone involved including themselves, neither Emmanuel nor Cara said anything more about it!

"Mom, why didn't you come with Owen, George and Jennifer?" asked Emmanuel curiously at that moment.

Upon hearing this, Victoria let out a cold laugh and said indifferently, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that the rest of the family won't be coming!" Emmanuel and Cara's expressions changed instantly upon hearing this news.

Meanwhile, Harlow burst into laughter and gloated, "Uncle Emmanuel, Aunt Cara, were you really expecting the family to come here just to save face for you guys? You're dreaming! Not only will they not be attending but also all guests related to them won't be showing up either!" Harlow then peered into the wedding hall before teasingly saying, "Wow! So many empty tables at your wedding reception? How embarrassing!"

Romeo also joined in on mocking Emmanuel and Cara by saying, "I wonder how ugly it'll look if no one shows up for their wedding." At this point in time, both Emmanuel and Cara's faces turned pale with anger.

"Mom! What's going on? Are my siblings not coming?" asked Emmanuel as he looked towards Victoria.

"That's right. They're all too busy," replied Victoria expressionlessly while her eyes held a hint of mockery.

"What do you mean by that? Did you have something to do with their absence?" questioned an irate Cara as she glared at Victoria.

Cara couldn't bring herself to regard her 'mother-in-law' anymore when facing such a malicious person like her.

"Hmph! So what if I did?" retorted Victoria arrogantly while sneering at them both. "You guys aren't part of the family anymore so why are you trying so hard to use their name just for some face-saving purposes?"

"I want you both to understand that without the support of our family name, you are nothing more than nobodies!"

Victoria continued taunting them with glee written all over her wrinkled face. She felt like she had been taken advantage of by Emmanuel's family several times before, and now was determined to humiliate them thoroughly today. She wanted his entire household to become Edoland's laughing stock. And even more so, she wanted this whole wedding event to turn into an utter joke!

"Emmanuel, Miranda may have defied Mom by marrying that guy, but why would you and your wife dare help plan their wedding? Do you both think it's okay after disobeying Mom? Do you both still expect people from the family to attend this wedding?"

"You must be kidding yourself... Ha Ha..." scoffed Romeo sarcastically while rolling his eyes in disbelief.

Harlow also laughed a few times, her tone sarcastic. "Oh, by the way, Uncle and Auntie, we're just here to make fun of you. We'll leave after we've had our laughs! We're not here for the wedding at all. Hehehe..."

"You... you all..." Cara's face was filled with anger as she pointed at Victoria and Romeo's father-daughter duo but couldn't find the words to say.

Emmanuel's face turned ashen as he pulled out his phone and began making a call. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Owen, when are you guys coming..."

"Emmanuel, sorry about this! We can't make it today; we're discussing business outside!" But before he could finish speaking, Miranda's Uncle Owen apologized before hanging up. Emmanuel then called Miranda's Uncle George and Aunt Jennifer but got the same response.

Even his "friends" found various excuses not to come today!

Of course, Emmanuel had his own connections too but most of them were built on top of relationships with the Lowe family.

Victoria had already spoken; if they dared to come today, it would mean crossing swords with the Lowe family.

No one wanted to feel uncomfortable or offend Victoria for Emmanuel's sake.

After making some calls, Emmanuel's expression grew even more unsightly while Cara looked around at the empty wedding hall in frustration until tears started rolling down her cheeks. "Victoria, you're so cruel! On such a joyous occasion like this day, why do you have to target our family?"

"Why are you so vicious?"

"Don't forget that your life was saved by Lachlan!"

"If it weren't for us and Lachlan, you would've been killed by Romeo's family long ago! We don't expect your gratitude but how can you repay kindness with enmity?"

"It's supposed to be a happy day for two children getting married; why do you have to act like this?"

"You can still get along with Romeo and his daughter who tried killing you!"

"What did we ever do wrong? Huh? Tell me!"

Cara glared furiously at Victoria while questioning her repeatedly through choked sobs feeling an indescribable sense of grievance and resentment in her heart!
