Sean was actually looking at Cecelia too. She looked very pretty that day. He didn't have any
particular feelings before, but ever since that night, he realized how voluptuous her figure was and
how seductive she could be in bed.
However, at that moment, Cecelia was pretending not to know him. Is it really necessary for her to
go to such lengths? I was drunk that night, but what about her? Wasn't she sober? Why did that
happen, then?
He couldn't voice those questions then because if he did, the words might sound very hurtful to
Cecelia. I really don't mind taking responsibility, but she doesnât want me to,
Sean was in distress. I slept with her, and now things have taken such an awkward and undesirable
turn. Forget it. I'll deal with this after Tristan's wedding.
His mind was in a chaotic state at that instant, and he didnât have the slightest clue as to how he
should address that issue.
Eight people got on the elevator. When they reached the venue, the banquet had already begun.
Tristan and Sophie went from table to table to greet their guests.
The couple first arrived at the president's table.
Seeing that even the president had come, the three bridesmaids were astonished. No one had told
them that the president was there. Even the three groomsmen were also stunned.
At that instant, the president stood up while holding a wine glass in his hand.
Since he had gotten to his feet, the rest of the people around the table naturally followed suit.
âTristan, Sophie, I'm delighted to know that you two are getting married. Both of you are Chanaea'âs
hope. I'm certain that your union will also bring prosperity to our nation.â
âMr. President, we are grateful that you took the time to attend our wedding despite your busy
schedule.â With so many people around, Sophie didn't feel anything special about the president's
advent.
After all, that was her and Tristan's wedding ceremony.
The two had wanted a simple celebration, but because of William, they had to organize that grand
wedding.
Now that the president was also there, they had to spend time entertaining him, which Sophie
found nothing but tedious.
âSophie, you're now part of the medical association, so I might be in your care in the future.â The
president was very polite. He regarded Sophic, the twenty-one-year-old girl, with great respect.
"Of course.â
After toasting at that table, they moved to William's table. The people seated around that table
were all family, and Morgan was also among them
Tears welled up in Morgan's eyes as he witnessed how blissful Sophie's life was. Old Mr. Tanner can
now rest in peace. The granddaughter he cherished the most is truly happy now.
"You two must stay well together in the future. I can only rest assured if I see the two of you happy.â
William repeatedly advised. âStill, both of you are good kids, so I believe you'll be fine.â
âDad, donât worry. We'll take good care of each other.â
The following table consisted of Mark and the others. All five band membersâ eyes reddened when
they saw how happy Sophie was.
"We're not going to say much. With our relationship, we don't need to elaborate further. Anyway,
Mr. Tristan, remember never to make Sophie cry. Otherwise, even though we can win you, we'll still
fight you,â Sunny said agitatedly.
âDonât worry. How could I bear to make her cry? I can't wait to shower her with more love.â Tristan
was particularly tolerant of Mark and his band members.
There were over a hundred tables at the venue, and all of the attendees were wealthy and
influential. Tristan and Sophie went from table to table for a toast.
The three groomsmen performed their duty by helping Tristan to intercept and drink the glasses of
wine. After going around, the trio had also consumed a considerable amount of alcohol.
By the time they reached the last table, Felix was already getting unsteady on his feet.
He leaned against Ysabelle. âYsabelle, I think I'm really drunk. You must take good care of me
tonight, okay?â He staggered, feeling light-headed.
âDonât worry. I'll take care of you today. Now that's enough. Stop talking if you're drunk.â Ysabelle's
heart ached terribly as she took in his intoxicated appearance.
âI knew you were the best,â Felix said, resting his weight on Ysabelle's shoulder while wearing a
contented expression. My girl is really gentle and thoughtful now,
"Of course.â Ysabelle genuinely loved him. She had come to realize her feelings since that incident in
Fandar.
When Sophie walked over, she saw Felix in that pathetic state. She figured he must've dedicatedly
carried out his task that day. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten that drunk.
âTake him upstairs to rest. There's nothing much left to do here. We'll be calling it a day once we see
all the guests off,â Sophie said to Ysabelle.
âOkay, all right. I'll bring Felix upstairs first. Don't worry about us later. I'll have the hotel staff send
food to us.â
Sophie and the others had also been busy all day. Ysabelle didn't want them to trouble themselves
to take care of her and Felix. They could look after themselves. After all, that was a hotel. They could
get whatever they needed.
âWait here a moment. I'll ask Sunny to lend you a hand.
âSophie, that's not necessary. I can still walk.â Ysabelle was so fond of those band members from
The Wheelers that Felix didn't want their help. He could walk on his own.
"Arenât you drunk?â
âI am, but I can still walk!â Must one pass out on the floor before they're considered drunk?
âFine. You two go upstairs first, then.â Sophie didnât call for help since she noticed Felix could still
get by.
The guests began to leave one by one, and Tristan and Sophie went to the door to see them off.
Sophie wasn't used to wearing high heels. She felt that her legs were about to give way.
Only after all the guests had left did she breathe a sigh of relief. Noticing Morgan was still there, she
approached him at his table.
âMorgan, it's very late now. Would you prefer to stay in the hotel tonight, or should I have someone
take you home?â Sophie was exceptionally gentle when talking to Morgan, treating him like she did
her grandfather.
âMs. Sophie, don't mind me. You've also had a long day and haven't even eaten yet. Hurry up and
have some food. I can go back by myself.â Morgan had stayed there simply because he wished to
see Sophie for a longer time.
âI'll ask someone to take you home. Morgan, don't overthink, and just take good care of the
mansion for me.â Sophie knew Morgan was afraid of troubling her, so he had been wanting to
leave.
However, she knew he had no relatives left. Where else can he go? I dont mind taking care of him
for the rest of his life.
âMs. Sophie-" Has Ms. Sophie always known? I really did plan to leave. An old man like me will only
burden Ms. Sophie. I really shouldn't stay here any longer.
âIf you leave, my grandpa will blame me.â
âOkay, Ms. Sophic. Thank you.â Ms. Sophie is genuinely a kind-hearted and warm person. Most of
the time, sheâs just not good at expressing herself
