Chapter 761 The Day After the Fiasco
Monday. Briana was coming down the stairs of Ferro House, still in her nightgown and robe. She looked serious, still shaken by what happened at the engagement party. Noticing Regis’s presence, she tried to put on a brave, non-annoyed front. “Good morning, Regis.” “Are you feeling better, Lady Ferro?” Regis didn’t buy her facade. “Yes, I am feeling WONDERFULLY well.” Briana forced a smile. “Has our guest woken up yet?” “Julian is serving breakfast.” Regis nodded toward the kitchen. Briana nodded in return and headed that way. In the dining room, Luana was seated in a casual outfit suitable for staying home. It was obvious she had brought some bags to stay the whole weekend. Seeing Briana, her face lit up. “Good morning, my best friend!” “Good morning, Luana. How are you?” Briana chose her seat and sat down. “Forget about me. YOU are the biggest concern in this house, my friend,” Luana said seriously as she spread butter on her bread. “I’m fine. The baby didn’t die,” Briana
Chapter 760 Well Done, Folks!
Katrina finished using AI to tamper with and fake photos instead of working with the truth for her followers. “Done! Look how fancy I look! Anyone seeing me now would think I was at Alanna Torres’s table!” Katrina laughed and clapped for herself, shameless. Patricio shook his head, knowing this would backfire on Katrina. “You should listen to me and stop with these delusions, woman.” “Don’t discourage me, honey.” Katrina turned to him, confused. “You don’t want me to defeat Briana?” “I’m very worried about the baby forming in your belly,” Patricio pointed out, still far from the computer desk. “What are you afraid of? We’ll still have the first prenatal appointment, but there’s nothing wrong—” “Tell me, Katrina: in what environment will our child be born?” Patricio interrupted, tired of the nonsense. “Do you want to raise our child in an environment of love or hatred?” Katrina didn’t hesitate for two seconds before answering this absurdity, “There’s no way I can choose, dear. O
Chapter 759 The Party Speaker
“Attention everyone!” Celia loudly declared, making the situation worse with her already loud mic. “It’s time for speeches honoring the fiancé and fiancée!” Inside Mark’s study, he and Karl heard Celia’s shrill, drunken voice. “What the hell!” Karl shouted. “What is that damn woman doing here? THEY SAID THEY WOULDN’T COME!” “Just as you see, you broke Jake’s dressing mirror for no reason and cut your hand; just to intimidate, and it didn’t work.” “It’s better someone takes that crazy woman’s microphone away!” Karl spun around and dashed off. Mark followed, already fearing the worst. Back at the pool area, all guests stared curiously at Celia. Osvaldo and Jade didn’t have the best impression of the speaker. “Who is this unpleasant girl?” Jade wondered. “She seems to be friends with Luana and Karl. But I don’t remember them mentioning her.” Osvaldo placed a hand under his chin, intrigued. Celia, aware she had captured everyone’s attention, smiled drunkenly. “Thank you! As you
Chapter 758 Faking Photos with AI
Mark watched as Karl shriveled up after hearing the truth about the cut on his hand. “What’s wrong, Karl?” Mark was losing patience. “Wasn’t I supposed to know?” “I didn’t want you to worry about it.” Karl avoided eye contact. “It’s not that you were worried about me.” Mark reproached him. “You didn’t want me to suspect again that you’re mixing your feelings.” “Do you think I want to deliberately betray Luana with Celia?” Karl asked as if seeking absolution. Mark hesitated for a few seconds before replying, “What I think might not be the truth.” “Mark, for everything that’s sacred!” Karl begged with his hands clasped. “Don’t ruin my party! My parents are here, and they are setting the wedding date with Luana!” “Why would they cancel the wedding if I told them you argued with Jake Brett?” Mark narrowed his eyes. “I don’t want them to get the wrong impression,” Karl answered uncertainly. “Weren’t you jealous or upset to know Celia wouldn’t come today?” Mark asked directly. Kar
Chapter 757 Trying to Avoid the Worst
Mark’s water-like gaze also saw Jake mingling and interacting with the guests in his black tuxedo as if nothing had happened.Briana furrowed her brow, not understanding the actor’s change of heart.Hadn’t Celia and Jake said they wouldn’t attend the party to avoid upsetting the couple?If Karl and Luana see Jake...Too late. Karl was with other gentlemen when he saw Jake and immediately lost his previous smile.“Something wrong, Young Mr. Carvalho?”“Gentlemen, I apologize. I need to attend to an urgent matter.” Karl stepped away from the businessmen he’d been talking to.Mark also saw, from another angle, the furious fiancé heading straight for Jake.“Darling, I need to stop Karl!”Briana held her breath as Mark walked away.Mark quickly assessed who would meet first and decided to stop Karl.Karl felt a heavy hand tugging at the lapel of his tuxedo and turned to his left.“Mark, why are you holding me like this?”“Why are you running towards Jake Brett like that?” Mark responded wi
Chapter 756 Someone Who Shouldn’t Be Here
Mary Ellen hurried over and tapped the shoulder of a young lady dressed in emerald green, the fabric hugging her waist and physical features. The elegant updo added an extra touch of charm.Even from behind, Mary Ellen recognized the guest at a glance.“CELIA?!”The guest turned around, revealing herself to be Celia, smiling in a strange way.Mary Ellen's scanning gaze went directly to Celia's right hand, holding a champagne flute.“How many of these have you had?”“Mary Ellen, what a pleasant surprise!” Celia’s voice sounded different.Mary Ellen widened her eyes. “What are you talking about? You KNEW I’d be here!”“The surprise is on your part,” Celia replied indifferently. “Yes, I came. And my man is here too.”Mary Ellen turned her head in all directions — even to the FLOOR.“Where is he?”“Looking for the guest rooms so we can continue the celebration,” Celia finished off her champagne in a rather strange manner.To Mary Ellen’s sharp mind, this could only mean one thing = Celia
