Chapter 671
Alessandra was embarrassed. On the other hand, Ryder didn’t have a way
with words, so he didn’t know how to stand up for Emmanuel.
Only Roselynn sneered and said, “Well, it’s the exact opposite. Emmanuel
doesn’t think your sister is good enough for him as she’s too tacky. That’s why
he doesn’t even want to come.”
“You!” Certainly, Jacob wasn’t as sharp–tongued as the woman. He was so
furious that he had the urge to lay a hand on her. Just then, Melody stepped
out of the venue. “Well, look who’s here. I didn’t mean it when I invited you to
the wedding, Alessandra. I didn’t expect you to come.”
Melody’s words were even harsher. She sounded like they were there to get a
free dinner.
Alessandra was an honest housewife. Even though she was furious, she didn’t
know how to refute them, while Roselynn rolled her eyes and said, “We just
happened to pass by, so we thought we’d take a look. If you don’t welcome
us, we can leave now and save some money.”
Then, she took Alessandra’s hand, ready to leave.
Certainly, Alessandra wasn’t willing to leave. She didn’t mind getting mocked,
for she had to set up a date for Ryder. With that said, she knew that if she
insisted on staying, she would only embarrass her daughter. As such, she
1
had no choice but to turn around.
“Wait a minute!” Melody was even more impatient as she stopped them from
leaving. “Since you’re here, come on in! I didn’t say I didn’t welcome you!”
She wanted to get one more cash envelope since it was her daughter’s
wedding.
Jacob said through clenched teeth, “That’s right. Other than us, you probably
don’t have wealthy friends or relatives who could hold a wedding in a
five–star hotel. If you miss this wedding, you’ll regret it.”
Roselynn scoffed at that. Since the hotel was the Quillens‘, it was naturally
great.
The family who owned the hotel and the Lowe family were relatives. If the
conceited Jacob found out about it, he would probably be embarrassed.
Roselynn wasn’t someone who liked to brag, so she surely wouldn’t tell them
about it.
“Well, congratulations on your daughter’s wedding, then.” Since they were
formally invited to the wedding, Alessandra directly passed Melody a cash
envelope. Her primary goal was to approach Ruby and set up a date for
Ryder.
Roselynn pursed her lips, sporting a dark expression while looking at the
Zimmerman family.
“Come on in. We’ll have to attend to the other guests now. See you later.”
Melody passed the cash envelope to the woman at the entrance, not even
willing to look at how much money was inside. She didn’t think the Lowe
family could offer a lot of money, given how poor they were.
Much to her surprise, the woman, who was responsible for registering the
guests, exclaimed, “There’s 5,000 in the cash envelope, Mrs. Claus!”
“What?!” Melody was instantly rooted to the spot. Jacob was surprised as
well. Regardless of whether they were trying to give more money than they
could afford, they were generous.
“Well… thanks for the money, then. I’ll prepare another table for you.” Melody
snorted. She wasn’t pretending to be generous, but it was the rule. Also, she
was worried that if the Lowe family were seated with the other guests,
Alessandra would spout nonsense and embarrass the Zimmerman family.
“Thanks,” Alessandra replied with a smile. She didn’t expect Melody to see her
as having malicious intentions.
She was a generous person. Since her family had been doing well as of late,
she decided to give the newlyweds her blessings.
“By the way, since you’ve given us such a big cash envelope, why don’t you
ask Emmanuel to come as well? He doesn’t have to give us another cash
envelope anyway,” Jacob suggested. He wasn’t being generous. It’s just if
Emmanuel wasn’t around, how were he and his friends going to mock him?
He heard from Milani that Emmanuel had previously hooked up with a
wealthy lady, and he even showed off his Maserati. However, the wealthy
woman dumped him, and he lost his job. Certainly, he had to tell everyone
about it to embarrass the Lowe family and get revenge for Milani, for
Emmanuel had repeatedly messed with the woman before.
