Chapter 201 Bride received humiliation
Emily didn't want help from Elly but she felt guilty about Peter and couldn't bear to watch him pay so much. The wedding could not take place if matters became more chaotic. Emily bit her sweet lip.
Ms. Minda stared at Emily's eyes. "Who are you? What right do you have to stay here?"
When he saw that his mother was so angry at Elly, Peter hurriedly dissuaded her. "Mom, she's a guest at the wedding. It's none of our business."
"The invitation is not in the hall, so why did she have to go to the dressing room?" At this time, Ms. Minda looked disdainful and pulled the skirt from Emily's hand, putting her face to shame.
Elly couldn't stand it. He walked up to Emily, straightened up and answered solemnly. "I'm her sister." She used to be despised like this and she knew what Emily felt now.
Emily couldn't take her eyes off Elly. Elly admitted to being her sister?
Peter was surprised. He didn't expect that one day Elly would be willing to admit his relationship with Emily. Does this mean that she had accepted Emily?
The sudden situation made Mrs. Minda frown and looked at Emily to confirm Elly's words. "Is she your sister?"
Emily looked at Elly, nodded gently and admitted. "Yes, auntie."
A second later, she stood up, pulled Elly behind her and said strongly. "But it has nothing to do with you. You are the one who is unhappy with me. Don't blame her or degrade her." She is the fiancee of brother Alex.
Emily's protection warmed Elly's heart but her eyes quickly flashed with surprise. Why did she said the name of Alex?
Ms. Minda turned a blind eye to their sisterly love scene and said sarcastically, "Shameless is a sister who likes to haunt powerful people for the sake of greed for money and fame!"
The stinging pain is deeply embedded in Elly's heart, reminding her that she and Alex are of different worlds.
Peter became more and more worried. He stood up and tried to hold Mrs. Minda's hand to persuade her. "Mom, that's something to talk about at home, okay? Today is my wedding, don't do anything inappropriate, let me decide for my own happiness."
"How wonderful!" Mrs. Minda held her son's hand. "Precisely! Because it is your wedding, I just want to tell you that women like her, who loves money and want to marry rich men, is just a big dream!"
"We will have to let Aunt Minda down." After Ms. Jiang spoke, a cold voice sounded from the door, and a tall figure and an arrogant face entered the room.
"Oh, okay." Elly shouted softly and the feeling of unhappiness in her heart soon disappeared when he saw him.
Alex pulled her into his arms and looked at Mrs. Minda arrogantly. "What is Mrs. Minda's dissatisfaction with my fiancee?"
Ms. Minda was no stranger to Alex. After all, he and her son had been good friends for many years. They came from the same family and was often associated with each other. Now she spoke ill of his fiancee's back and was caught red-handed. After she settled down, Ms. Minda's expression soon returned to normal.
"I'm doing it for your sake. Don't misunderstand. Such a woman is not worthy of your livelihood. You will regret this."
When he heard Ms. Minda was pretending to think of his welfare, Alex couldn't help himself and he got angry. He looked down on the woman he once respected very much. "Aunt Minda's love and marriage come from interests. We have different views. I believe in my eyes and in my heart, so please allow me not to disturb you any more."
Ms. Minda choked up and gasped for breath.
Alex glanced faintly at Emily's drooping face and swept across the helpless expression on Peter's face, and persuaded helplessly. "But you should trust your son's eyes. You should look carefully before you make a decision. No one wants to turn this kind of events into jokes, right?"
Alex, out of kindness, hoped that Mrs. Minda would know what she must do but Ms. Minda was not moved at all. She looked at him smiled politely but bluntly complacent. "Please don't interfere in our family affairs. Even if you are a friend of Peter, don't be self-righteous."
Speaking of which, Alex was finished speaking to this lady. He shrugged. "Come on, come on." No matter how much Elly tried to convince him to stay, he hugged Elly's waist and forcibly left.
"Why did we leave the room? Elly complained. "Why don't we help them? Peter is my friend!"
Alex stopped and looked at her carefully. "Aren't you angry that Mrs. Minda scolded me?"
Elly was silent for a few seconds. She nodded and admitted his thoughts for the first time. "I was so angry that I took the liberty of coming to the conclusion that I didn't know people, which was so unfair. I don't care what Mrs. Minda thinks of me. Her daughter in law will have a hard time to get along with her."
"Are you protecting Emily?" He was surprised by her explanation.
She was taken aback and spoke in a low voice. "I'm just minding my own business."
"Don't you hate her anymore?
Elly shook her head. She did not know why se stood up to defend Emily but she felt that Emily's situation was so pitiful that she could not but to stand up for her sister.
"No matter what happened, isn't Peter your good friend? Don't you want to see how this wedding would turn out?"
Alex' eyes were soft and he patted her on the shoulder. "Come on, stay out of this and let them handle it."
The two lovers walked into the hall. Time had passed and everyone was waitingg anxiously. Peter finally took Emily's hand and together they walked on the red carpet.
They took great pains to persuade Ms. Minda to give them a chance and Peter cherished it even more. Without a brilliant smile on Emily's face, she foolishly stepped onto the stage and listened to the host arrange the ceremony to guide the ceremony.
With everyone's blessing, the host solemnly declared. Let the mother of our bridegroom speak on stage.
Emily almost fainted because of worry. She felt like her heart stopped beating because it. Her hand was tightly squeezed by Peter and she somehow felt relieved.
Amid the warm applause, Ms. Minda walked calmly onto the stage and looked directly at Emily. Without a smile, Ms. Minda patted the microphone and whispered, which emphasized every word.
"Now I would like to say an important thing, which I am afraid it will be difficult for everyone to accept. Today's wedding was not approved by our family. We won't allow a daughter-in-law like Miss Russell to enter our door. My son and Miss Russell will get the divorce certificate as soon as possible. Everyone can leave the ceremony right away." Ms. Minda added. "We'll send your wedding bag back. Thank you."
The bride and groom on the stage paid attention to the faces of their guests below. All of their guests were very shocked. This was an unexpected situation.
It turned out that the bride was not able get the consent of Ms. Minda.
The bride was the daughter of the bankrupt Russell family, right?
Tears filled the eyes on Emily. She pulled her skirt up and ran out of the hall. She heard sarcasm as she ran down the red carpet.
"Emily!" Peter was very worried and was calling out her name. He wanted to ran after Emily but Ms. Minda tightly held his wrist.
"You can't go! Don't get involved with that woman from now on." Mrs. Minda screamed.
Peter used up all of his patience and told Mrs. Minda impatiently. "Are you trying to kill me?"
Mrs. Minda was startled. He removed Mrs. Minda's tight grasp of his hands and ran out of the hall to look for Emily.
Elly suddenly had a foreboding. She took Alex by the hand and said, "Should we go and see her?"
Alex nodded. He knew that Elly won't feel relieved if they would not follow Emily. People went out of the wedding hall just in time and they saw Emily close the door of the taxi. She drove the car very fast.
"Emily!" Peter shouted.
Elly reached out and stopped a taxi. She pushed Peter inside. "Why are you still standing here? Get in!"
Urged by Elly, Peter sat calmly inside the car. He listened to Elly who was sitting in the passenger seat ws directing the driver. "Mister, go after the red car. Please hurry!"
The taxi took Emily to the beach and people trembled with bad premonition.
Sure enough, after she got the vehicle, Emily ran directly to the beach. This place was not a white sand kind of beach, but a high stone pier. If you drop your foot, it would be very dangerous.
Peter rushed over and howled incessantly. "Emily! Don't be silly. We can get through this. Please come back."
As she saw many people who watched her was getting closer and closer, Emily shouted, "Don't come over! If you get close, I'll jump".
Peter's footsteps staggered and fell. He stood up, looked at her in fear and his eyes turned red.
Elly stood trembling beside Alex and sincerely persuaded him. "That was nt enough reason to kill yourself! Emily, come back! Don't give up, listen to me!"
Elly's suggestion made Emily's mood more intense and crazy.
