Chapter 207
Charmine was walking down the stairs when she saw Anthony walking into the lobby. Although Anthony was only dressed in a suit, his suit was more formal than the ones he usually wore. It only took one short glance to send Charmine’s heart into a pumping frenzy.
Why was he attending the ceremony? If anyone found out about her relationship with Anthony
Anthony was looking at her, too. She seemed like a royal princess as she stood on the European cylindrical staircase; stunning and beautiful. Moreover, her slender waist wrapped i n her wedding gown made him want to hold her in his arms. However, it was Anthony after all. He looked away after a glance and continued walking elegantly.
Members of the Jordan family and Cabell family all stood up instantly and approached him with pleasantries. “Welcome, Mr. Bailey, it’s our pleasure to meet you.”
“Mr. Bailey should have told us earlier so we could arrange this somewhere more spacious.”
“This way, please. Mr. Bailey, here’s the VIP lounge with fewer people.”
“May I know if Mr. Bailey prefers tea or coffee?”
Everyone was on their best behavior, afraid to offend him.
Anthony, with his enigmatic voice, replied, “It’s okay. I’ve worked with Ms. Jordan before, and I’m just attending her wedding as a guest.” With that said, Nial handed them a gift cased a box. “This is a gift for the newlyweds on behalf of the Bailey family. We wish them to treat one another with sincerity and politeness.”
Sincerity and politeness? Were these the correct words to wish newlyweds?
The crowd was confused, but the person speaking was Nial who represented Anthony. Who had the courage to question him, at all?
Madam Cabell accepted the gift with delight and, in a flattered state, gushed, “Thank you, Mr. Bailey. Thank you so much. Mr. Bailey! Please, this way.”
There was a private area isolated by a screen, and it was quieter. Anthony walked over holding onto Chris. When Chris saw Charmine on the staircase, the boy instinctively wanted to run over, but Anthony stopped him. He scooped him up and placed him on his lap. He glared at Chris to remind him of the plan, and Chris stayed on his lap obediently. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
As the two sat down, the guests in the lobby could not help but murmur softly to one another. Their focus was all on Anthony. The paparazzi wanted to take photos of him, but anyone in the industry knew that even if they had photos of Anthony, they were not allowed to publish them. Because of this, the paparazzi could only look on without being able to capture the moment.
“So beautiful!” someone exclaimed.
Everyone turned to see Charmine walking down the stairs in her wedding gown. Her every movement was elegant as she wore a faint smile on her face. Her long gown trailed behind her, and it made her seem like a princess and a queen altogether!
Everyone was awestruck by her beauty, and the first group of people to regain their senses were the paparazzi. They snapped photos incessantly as if they had unlimited storage. Furthermore, since they were not allowed to interview Anthony, at least they were able to interview the wealthiest woman!
With that, a swarm of paparazzi surrounded her and bombarded her with questions.
“Ms. Jordan, why did you decide to marry Julian Cabell within two months after returning to the country?” 2
“Right now you’re at the peak of your career, and getting married will definitely affect your career. How do you feel about this?”.
“How will you balance your work life and family life after marriage?”
Charmine had her script prepared, but she could feel a pair of intense eyes staring at her, and the pressure made her rather flustered.
Once she regained her composure, she answered, “My love for Julian is true. I’ll leave behind m y career in order to become a good wife and a good mother to our future children.”
Wow!
Leave behind her career, all to become a good wife and a good mother?
The legendary Boss Jordan, the wild and arrogant Boss Jordan, would become a stay-at-home wife for Julian?
