2 days later."How many invites did you send out? Why do we have more people than we invited?" Ethan said, frowning.He wanted the invite to only have a total of 25 people at most, and now, there are about 35 people in the hall."I invited a few other people. It's my wedding, for crying out loud. Ethan, I have all the rights to invite whomever I choose," Xavier said, feeling tipsy.The whole event was already coming to an end. Xavier and Elia had taken their wedding vows, and Ethan saw no reason why he should remain in the hall."We said it was going to be a small wedding. A small wedding does not involve a lot of people," Ethan thundered.He was displeased that he had to see a few foreign faces in the hall, people he was certain knew him, but he wouldn't say he knew them."35 people is small enough," Xavier said, handing a glass of wine to Ethan."Have a drink and relax. This only happens once, so just let me enjoy the moment," he said and left Ethan, who still seemed pissed.Meanwhi
Chapter 193
Brandon drove Cersei back to the pub, where she got into her car and drove to Ethan's estate.She briskly walked into the mansion; there was barely anyone in sight, and she was grateful that she prioritized herself for once and left the estate to clear her mind. "It was worth it." She muttered.She got to her room and climbed into her bed—Cersei fell asleep almost immediately after her body touched the soft mattress.Unknowingly to her, the second she arrived at the house, she had eyes watching. Meanwhile, Xavier had purchased a penthouse some days ago just a few houses away from Ethan's estate; it was expensive, but he wanted to be close without being close.He successful engagement with Elia had pulled off just the way he expected.Xavier intentionally outdid himself because he wanted to impress Elia, whether or not he put in effort, he knew she was going to accept the proposal.Xavier's thoughts were soon interrupted by a knock on the door, "Sir, there's someone here to see you."
Chapter 192
After hesitating for a while, Cersei finally followed Brandon out of the pub to his car. "I came with my car." She paused, knowing well that she might not come here again."Just follow me, and when coming back, I'll stop here so you can drive home with your car," he suggested.Cersei gave it a thought and finally agreed. She got in the passenger's seat while Bran started the engines of his car, driving off."You can take off your cap, Cersei; I'm not taking you to a place filled with politics-minded people," Bran informed her, but Cersei had a stubborn mind."How does that matter? Just drive so we can get there on time!" She said.Deciding to let her be and not start a simple conversation that she could end up turning into an argument, Bran turned on the music."You try to hide it, but you know... You can't run from yourself." He hummed to the song 'You can't run from yourself by Aurora.' "You listen to Aurora?" Cersei asked, a bit surprised,"Who's Aurora?" Bran innocently asked,"A

Cersei got to a 3-star pub, one that she hoped no one would recognize her in. She had worn the cap over her hair to stop people from getting curious about her because there were barely any people in the country with red hair like hers."I'd like a cocktail, please," Cersei said, dropping a few dollar notes on the table.She was served a cocktail and remained sitting at the bar counter.The noise on the pub made her doubt the fact that it was a 3 star pub, "What's all the noise about," She growled, asking rhetorically,"Men come here to gamble and talk about dirty businesses, and it sometimes results in a lot of noise." Answered a man who, seconds after recognizing her, joined her at the bar counter.Cersei hissed, absentmindedly, "That's no excuse for all this noise, and when on this planet do pubs turn to gamble sites?" She narrowed her eyes, requesting a refill on her cocktail."If the police enter a Catholic church in search of drug dealers, the majority wouldn't check the priest,
Chapter 190
Ethan briskly walked to his room, and on entering the room, he saw that Catelyn was taking off her clothes. "Where did you go?" He inquired, abruptly,Catelyn turned to him, furrowing her brows. "You just came back from work after 2 days, and that's the first thing that you can say to your wife?" She asked, wanting to play the victim, but with everything that was currently happening and with logical reasoning, he might just have a spy in his house, one that he calls a wife."Catelyn. That doesn't answer my question." He responded sternly,"Well, if you don't know how to address me as your wife, then I don't think you have a right to know about my whereabouts," she answered.Ethan scoffed at her words and ran his hands through his hair; he was undeniably tired, but Catelyn wasn't going to escape his questions. "What's so difficult in answering me?" He arched his brows."I wasn't going to come back for two days; I informed you, with my location as well. Every impromptu trip I go on, I
Chapter 189
After Alexander's conversation with Xavier's housekeeper, he left the house feeling satisfied with the outcome. He said, "Inform me when Xavier comes home, and don't mention to him that I was here," and left the penthouse.Alexander got back home; he had a few things on his mind, but none of them were able to cloud his thoughts about Xavier. "If you're not going to do anything, then I will." He recalled one of the hateful sentences he got from Gwen, but little did she know that all this was part of his little plan....47 hours 5 minutes after Ethan and the workers had started the job to deliver D&D Company with the products, Ethan and his crew had just 50 more items to get boxed."I can't believe we did this," Lilian muttered."You can't believe?" Ethan asked, knowing that Lilian was not one to doubt."Well, I mean, I'm thrilled." She laughed.Ethan understood just how she felt, but to be frank, he didn't want to get excited until after signing the contract with D&D Company.Everyo
