“Mrs. Quillen!” Jessica greeted them, smiling ear to ear. “I never thought that

I’d see you here!”

“You are?”

Terence was not particularly pleased by her sudden appearance as he was

in a hurry to attend the Quillen family’s wedding banquet. As Felicity had held

them up, they were already running late, and he did not want to waste any

more of his time. However, upon seeing the uninvited guest’s wide smile, he

responded out of courtesy, all the while worried that he would be recognized

nearby the Lowe family’s house which would lead to Mackenzie losing the

ability to pretend to be poor when she was with Emmanuel.

“Old Mr. Quillen, I’m Jessica Oatley, the chief financial officer of Oatley

Corporation!” Jessica introduced herself along with her title, afraid that he

wouldn’t recognize her.

And yet, Terence still had no inkling of who she was and had even forgotten which company Oatley Corporation belonged to, so he only replied, “Nice to

meet you, Miss Oatley. I’m busy, so let’s talk next time!”

Saying that, he turned around to leave.

On the other hand, Felicity remained expressionless, unsurprised by the sight

of small fry like Jessica trying to gain their favor, though she hadn’t expected

to encounter someone like this near the Lowe Residence.

“Old Mr. Quillen! Old Mr. Quillen!”

Jessica refused to give up, but she was immediately stopped by the Quillen

family’s bodyguards.

Alfred shot her a fierce glare and even warned her, “Miss, if you take another

step forward, we won’t hold back on you.”

“Uh…”

Jessica was thoroughly bewildered. It was embarrassing enough that she

failed to strike up a conversation with Terence, but the biggest problem was

that the Quillen family’s bodyguards were blocking the road that just so

happened to lead toward the Lowe Residence. If they refused to let her pass

through, she wouldn’t be able to return to pick up the bride!

As the sky grew darker, Roselynn finally left the house and got in the car. Not

knowing what had happened to Jessica, Jaxton assumed that she had left

without any intention of returning as she looked down on the Lowe family and

didn’t stick around to wait for her. Hence, she must have immediately

headed back home after picking up his bride.

Roselynn had just left when Terence and Felicity arrived at the Lowe

Residence. Although it was only a short walk, Felicity seemed to be in a bad

mood.

Fortunately, Terence made up for her low spirits with his friendliness as he

smiled brightly at Alessandra. “Haha. Mrs. Lowe, congratulations on your

daughter’s marriage!”

Then, he instructed Felicity to hand over their gift.

As Terence had a down–to–earth personality, he prepared two envelopes of

monetary gifts as a present. However, it was quite a large sum–each

envelope contained 10 thousand. Moreover, despite instructing his men to

prepare as much money as they could, this was the most he was able to

come up with.

“Oh, Old Mr. Quillen, you’re being too polite! It’s a pity Roselynn just left with

the groom, so we can’t bring her back to give you a toast!” Alessandra replied

politely. After all, two envelopes containing 10 thousand each were

considered a significant present in the Lowe family.

Claudette, who was just preparing to leave, finally got the gist of the situation

upon seeing the scene before her. It appeared that Terence was the one who

set up Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s marriage.

Looking at Felicity’s expression, it seemed that she was quite unhappy with

their marriage even if she didn’t say a word, and Claudette,wondered if she

still had a chance. As she watched Emmanuel giving Terence a warm

welcome, she let out a deep inhale before taking her leave.

Although both the Oatley and Lowe Residences were in Yeringham, the

journey was almost three hours long as Yeringham was a large city, and it

was already midnight by the time Roselynn arrived at the Oatley Residence.

Many of the members of the Oatley family expressed their displeasure

toward the situation.

Similarly, although Jaxton’s parents did not lose their temper at Roselynn,

they secretly chided him, “What exactly is going on? You went to pick up the

bride early in the morning, so why did you only come back at midnight?”

“That’s right. Did her relatives ask for a lot of money from you or they would

refuse to let her leave?”

The couple understood Yeringham’s customs when it came to wedding

banquets like the back of their hand. In the past, there were cases where the

bride’s family would ask for a large sum of money on the wedding day,

resulting in the groom immediately leaving without even taking the bride

with him in a fit of frustration.
