Lily frowned as she looked at the phone in her hand. Beside her, Madam Springsteen could not help urging.“ Lily, call Master

Carter again and ask where he is. It’s already half an hour, and your grandfather is getting impatient.”

Lily replied, “Cliff said the traffic has cleared. They should arrive soon.”

Suddenly, her mother asked on the other side, “Lily, does Master Carter not want to get engaged to you?” Lily smiled and replied,

“Mom, don’t overthink it. He was stuck in the traffic.”

Her mother frowned and murmured, “Why didn’t he come over sooner? Doesn't he realize that you're getting engaged tonight?”

Madam Springsteen coughed. “He’s handling the Carter Corporation. How could such a big organization not have some

urgencies?”

Lily's mother pursed her lips and said nothing.

Lily glanced outside the window.

She must claim this man as her own. No matter how long Odell was stuck in the traffic tonight, she would wait for

him.

At this time, outside the hotel, in a car parked by the roadside for a long time. The window was rolled down. The man inside

smoked a cigarette while keeping silent.

On the passenger’s seat, Cliff looked at the time and said softly, “Master Carter, half an hour has passed. Should we go in now?”

The man’s dark gaze landed on the snow-white ground outside the window.

After a long time, he threw the unfinished cigarette into the snowy ground and said hoarsely, “Let’s go in.”

Cliff hurriedly went out of the car to open the door for him. Odell walked out, and his sturdy figure soon disappeared at the hotel

entrance.

At the same time, a white business car drove over and stopped steadily. “Sylvia, we’ve reached. The ceremony should’ve

already started. Let’s go down and see if we’re still on time.” Zach got out of the car and smiled at Sylvia.

Sylvia’s smile seemed forced. “Okay.”

Then, she pushed open the car door with difficulty.

In the hotel, the guests finally welcomed the emcee and the elders of both families on stage after waiting for nearly forty minutes.

The emcee said some greetings and asked all the guests to take their seats. Then, the ceremony officially started.

Everyone stared at the stage.

Following the romantic music, the stars of the day finally walked out.

The man wore a suit and stood sturdily. His figure was exceptional, and he was also very handsome.

The woman wore a white gown that outlined her slim figure. Her appearance was also easy on the eyes.

The two were a match made in heaven in terms of appearance and family background. The guests could not help clapping their

hands.

Odell and Lily walked to the center of the stage.

The emcee made sure the ceremony process flowed smoothly.

Soon, they exchanged engagement rings and hugged in front of everyone.

The scene was heart-warming and pleasing.

Another round of applause sounded and only stopped after Odell released Lily.

The emcee’s voice then rang out. “Thank you, everyone, for coming! Let us move to the restaurant next door and enjoy the

feast!”

As his voice fell, the guests stood up orderly and walked to the restaurant.

On the stage, Odell also turned around and went down. He happened to catch a familiar figure out of the corner of his eyes.

He immediately glanced toward the hall’s center.

Amid the moving crowd stood an unmoving woman.

The woman wore a black hat and a loose black skirt, looking like a ghost that had lost her soul.

As if noticing his gaze, she suddenly turned around and walked out. Odell’s gaze hardened.

That figure. It could not be anyone else other than that woman! Instantly, he jumped off the stage.
