Chapter 267

The Carltons were already on the scene. Chloe stood out the most. She wore a cocktail dress paired

with a shawl, looking elegant and dignified.

She held onto Chris’ arm and had a bright smile on her face. It was as if her biological daughter was

the one getting engaged.

Ethan felt uncomfortable when he looked at her smile.

Brent quickly replied to Ethan’s question, “Mr. and Mrs. Carlton came ahead of time. They’re here to

mingle with the guests. Something went wrong with Ms. Carlton’s dress, so the people worked overtime

last night to get it fixed.

“Ms. Carlton went to get her makeup done and tried the dress on early this morning. She should be

here soon.”

Ethan knew Marina well. It was the engagement party that she had wanted so badly. She wouldn’t be

late if she could help it. She would want to come as soon as possible and show off. But it was getting

late and she still hadn’t arrived. Ethan found that to be weird.

All the equipment on site had been checked several times. Everything was set. Everyone was waiting

for Marina to arrive so that the engagement ceremony could begin.

The scent of fresh flowers was in the air. Guests in all sorts of formal attire were everywhere. Some of

them were talking, others were taking pictures.

There were also children happily running around under the cherry blossom trees. Overall, it was a very

harmonious scene.

Connor was being carried in Mina’s arms. He looked curiously at the cherry blossom petals overhead.

Petals were slowly falling even when there wasn’t any wind.

Connor wanted to grab some petals, but a petal fell on his nose just as he raised his head. He stopped

moving immediately. He didn’t want the petal to fall off. It was a very adorable moment.

Chloe looked around and didn’t see Marina anywhere. She tugged at Chris’ arm, saying worriedly,

“Why isn’t Marina here yet? Could something have happened to her?”

“She loves dolling herself up. She even had her dress returned and worked on for some minor issues.

She’s probably throwing a fit about the dress right now,” Chris said sheepishly.

“This won’t do. The ceremony is about to begin. She can’t afford to make a blunder now. I’l

er and ask her to hurry up.”

Chloe was about to walk away when Chris grabbed her hand. “Don’t overexert yourself. You were just

discharged from the hospital a few days ago. You’ve also been working yourself to the bone for this

ceremony. I know Marina has always held a grudge against you.”

Chloe smiled gently and said, “Her mother passed away when she was young. You didn’t care for her

much when she was a child. Understandably, she harbors some resentment. I’ll try my best to make it

up to her.”

“Chloe, I’m so lucky I’m able to marry a woman like you. Olivia isn’t here today. Is she still mad at us?

Jeff is still comatose in the hospital. Olivia’s your only flesh and blood. I truly want to take good care of

her.”

“I know you’re a kind man. She’s just been spoiled by her father as a kid. She’s also resentful that her

marriage failed. You don’t have to pay her any mind. She’ll understand when she gets older.”

Chloe felt a little bitterness when she thought about her falling out with Olivia last night. Most of her

encounters with Olivia ended with arguments since she returned from overseas.

She thought Olivia was being too heartless considering she was trying her best to care for her. In

Chloe’s eyes, Olivia was like a rebellious child. She decided to have a heart-to-heart with Olivia after

she was past this rebellious phase.

“I’ll go contact Marina. Keep an eye on things here.”

“Alright, but don’t work yourself too hard.”

Chloe went under the shade of a cherry blossom tree and dialed Marina’s number. She wasn’t able to

get through. Chloe

wondered if Marina was already on the helicopter.

She began to contact people who worked for Marina, and she received an unexpected reply. One of

the staff told her that Marína had already boarded a helicopter two hours ago.

2/2

The flight from Aldenvine to the island should only take around 30 minutes. If Marina boarded a

helicopter two hours ago, where was she?
