Chapter 676
Milani had promised Jacob that the money they received on her wedding
day would be given to him when he got married in the future.
“Yes, it’s quite embarrassing.” Melody let out a sigh. “The biggest cash
envelope was given by the family of your sister’s former date. If others find
out about this, we’ll become laughingstocks.”
“Haha! It just shows that rich people are stingy, whereas poor people like
pretending to be generous.” Jacob laughed. “We all know Emmanuel comes
from a poor family. They live in a 900–square–foot home and don’t even have
a car. However, his family gave 5,000 to his former date on her wedding day.
Say, don’t you think Emmanuel is still hung up on Milani?“.
Melody found her son’s words logical. She chuckled and said, “Milani must be
the most beautiful one among the women he has gone on dates with before.
Now, he must be regretful of the fact that he didn’t give us a bride price of
70,000 back then.”
“My thoughts exactly, haha!” Jacob grinned. “Anyway, I’m surprised that the
poor guy, who earns an annual income of 12,000, isn’t here for a free meal-”
Before he could finish his words, he became rooted to the spot. Then, he
rubbed his eyes and looked intently, only to be shocked by a figure in the
corridor. The person was none other than Emmanuel!
Speak of the devil!
A speechless Emmanuel had heard the conversation between them, and he
felt his lips twitching. The Zimmerman family are all despicable people!
“Haha, Mom! What was I saying? told you this man would come for a free
meal!” Jacob guffawed and approached Emmanuel. “What’s wrong? Are you
trying to sneak into the venue through the side door? Are you worried it’ll be
embarrassing for you?”
“Why would I even feel embarrassed?” Emmanuel found him laughable.
“Milani was the one who wooed me madly, and I turned her down. Now that
she’s found the man she loves, I’m here to offer my blessings. Also, isn’t the
cash envelope my family has given to you the biggest one you received?”
“Well…” The smile on Jacob’s face froze. Suddenly, he felt like a fool.
Emmanuel put on a disdainful smile and brushed past him, no longer
wanting to respond to a good–for–nothing like him.
Behind him, Jacob was incensed. Nothing was more frustrating than this.
He had planned on getting revenge for his sister, but the moment he came
across Emmanuel, he was the one getting humiliated instead.
It seemed that it was difficult to get his revenge.
“Why is there such a shameless person in this world, Mom? He doesn’t even
dare enter the wedding through the main door, but he still has the nerve to
argue with me. What gives a poor man like him the confidence to be so
haughty? Doesn’t he know that Milani is marrying a wealthy man?”
Jacob kept yelling to vent his fury following a war of words with Emmanuel.
Melody placated her son, saying, “Alright, Jacob. Stop getting mad because
of someone like him! Even if he wasn’t aware of it in the past, he can surely
tell that Milani’s marrying an incredible man when he sees the wedding. We’ll
humiliate him in front of everyone later. Let’s see how he can still act
arrogantly by then.”
“That’s right. I’ll look for Milani right now and tell her to join forces with us. Dang
it!” Upon making a decision, Jacob headed straight to the bride’s dressing
room.
Presently, Milani was putting on jewelry in the dressing room. However, the
flashy jewelry didn’t match her wedding dress at all. That was the last of her
concerns, though. She had the urge to put on all the jewelry she had, and
that was the typical behavior of the newly rich.
“Oh? Is Emmanuel here?”
When Milani saw how agitated her brother was, she giggled. “I didn’t expect
he’d have the courage to come. I can take this chance to settle the score
with him.”
She would never forget why she even left Yeringham in the past.
At that time, she accepted Ruby’s bad suggestion and confessed her love for
Emmanuel in public.
After she was turned down, she became the laughingstock among her
schoolmates. Soon, she found out that the man was merely the plaything of
a wealthy woman. That discovery made her feel utterly ashamed.
As such, she had to seize this chance to let all her friends and relatives know
that she was living her best life, whereas Emmanuel was in a terrible state.
She had been waiting for a chance to get her revenge, and she could finally
get it now.
