Chapter 86
“Congratulations!”
Welcome, thank you for coming!” Ingrid couldn’t stop smiling.
The venue was filled with laughter.
Though Bruce was not very happy, he was still wearing a polite smile on his face in the face of so many
guests.
Roxanne was wearing a white fishtail dress today. This was a dress designed by one of the most high–
end designers in Paris and she looked elegant and graceful in it.
She was wearing a crown encrusted with diamonds on her head, and on her neck and wrists was
matching top–notch jewelry. The big diamond on her finger was dazzling.
She looked like she was covered in jewels and she was both glowing and stunning.
At this moment, Roxanne was happily snuggling up to Bruce.
On the huge autograph wall, all the celebrities from all walks of life had left their signatures.
Below the stage, some girls got really jealous and could not help but gossip.
“Do you think Miss Haynes will come today?”
A girl in a black gown snorted. “How is that possible?”
“No one will welcome her on such an occasion.”
“Six years ago, she schemed and forcefully separated Mr. Everett and Miss Roxanne. How can she still
have the courage to come here now?”
Another girl in a red dress chimed in sarcastically, “You’re right. How shameless would she be if she
really does such a thing?”
“What’s so strange about that? Who wouldn’t miss a golden bachelor like Mr. Everett? As long as
there’s a chance, no one will give up.”
“However, Miss Roxanne and Mr. Everett are true love! Even if someone forcefully tries to break them
up, they won’t get their way!”
“Shh, this is their engagement banquet. Let’s not talk about this! If the host family hears this, it’ll be very
rude.”
“Let’s drink!”
Today, they were having a buffet.
Of course, the dishes were of the highest quality.
How much they wanna eat, how much they wanna drink, and what they wanna eat were all up to the
guests.
Today happened to be the weekend.
Davian and Irvin had also returned to Greyport.
In the room.
Irvin looked curiously at Davian.
Davian had a serious expression on his face. He was focused on the computer and he was working on
the keyboard.
“Davian, how do you plan to mess with Bruce?”
Davian’s cold face tensed up. “I’ve been searching for news online recently.
“Everyone said online that mommy tried to seduce Bruce.
I’ve checked a lot of news in the past. I don’t believe that mommy would do such a thing. Mommy must
have been wronged.
Today, I’m going to clear mommy’s name in public.”
After Davian finished speaking in his childish voice, a hint of maturity that did not match his age
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtappeared on his face.
Irvin tilted his head and looked at his brother. “Davian, what do you plan to do?”
Davian quickly found a video from the document. “This is the video of the engagement party of Bruce
and that wicked woman six years ago.
“Although the surveillance video at that time was destroyed, I used technical means to repair the
complete surveillance video.
“Now, I’m going to play this edited video at the wedding banquet. As long as everyone watches this
video, they will know that mommy did not do that.”
When Irvin heard this, he looked at his brother with admiration. “Wow, Davian, you’re really amazing!”
Davian patted his chest and said the most badass words in the sweetest voice, “Needless to say, I’m
determined to be the best hacker in the world!
“Whoever dares to bully mommy, I’ll teach them a lesson!”
At the engagement banquet.
The banquet had reached its climax.
The wedding MC was still hosting the wedding banquet enthusiastically.
”
“Now, I’d like to invite everyone to watch a video of Mr. Everett proposing to Miss Roxanne.”
As he spoke, the wedding MC got someone to open the huge projection screen and some elegant and
moving music started playing.
A huge screen on the wall began to play the scene of Bruce proposing.
All the guests looked at the screen enviously.
“Wow, so romantic! Miss Roxanne is so lucky!”
“That’s right! Mr. Everett actually booked an island to hold the proposal ceremony…”
Everyone was focusing on the video.
Suddenly, the huge projection screen sizzled twice before turning black.
“Uh, what’s going on?”
“Maybe it’s just bad contact. Hurry up and inform the backstage.”
“Oh my god, how could there be such a malfunction?”
“Yeah, this is Victoria Hotel. How can there be such a malfunction?”
Chapter 86
Everyone was wondering what was going on here.
The technicians hurriedly went backstage to check on the situation.
Suddenly, the projection screen flashed and then began to play again.
Everyone started focusing on the screen.
However, the screen had already been switched to another video and the quality of the video was very
blurry.
“What is it?”
“It seems to be a video of the engagement six years ago, right?” A guest recognized it.
“Huh? Why is the engagement video from six years ago playing now?”
Bruce’s eyes darkened when he saw that. “Andy, what’s going on?”
“Hurry up and turn off the video!”
Andy’s face turned pale and he said, “There might be a hacker. I’ll deal with it immediately.”
When Ingrid and Roxanne saw this, their expressions changed.
“MC, what’s happening right now?”
“Turn off the projection right now…”
Soon, Joanna’s face appeared on the screen.
The video was playing at a faster speed and had obviously been edited. However, people could still
see the content of the video clearly.
Six years ago, Joanna was also one of the bridesmaids.
There were no accidents happening during the entire ceremony.
Toward the end of the engagement banquet, Joanna got a drink from a waiter.
After finishing her drink, Joanna clearly felt that something was wrong as if she was drunk and then she
leaned weakly on
the sofa to rest.
Then, a burly middle–aged woman in a servant’s uniform carried Joanna into Bruce’s room while she
was unconscious.
Bam
At this point, the entire banquet hall instantly fell silent.
Although none of them could see the middle–aged woman’s face clearly, they could tell for sure that
Joanna was drugged at the wedding banquet six years ago and was sent to Bruce’s room on purpose.
In other words, six years ago, Joanna did not take the initiative to enter Bruce’s room and someone
had deliberately planned
this.
Ingrid was so frightened that her face turned pale.
She was the one who ordered that person to drug Joanna.
Originally, she wanted to play a little trick. She wanted to set Joanna up and make her a shameless
person who tried to seduce her brother–in–law.
Chapter 86
She wanted to ruin Joanna’s reputation and made her lose the right to inherit the Haynes Group.
She didn’t expect that she would mess it up.
“Oh my god, this is…”
“It turns out that we’ve misunderstood Miss Haynes all these years!”
That’s right! From the looks of it, Miss Haynes has been set up by someone with ill intentions!”
“But why did she do that?”
“I don’t know. The person who’s responsible for this probably has some shameful secret.”
“Woah, so everyone has misunderstood Miss Haynes for so many years!”
Yeah, she’s a victim too!”
“Who did this on purpose?”
Ingrid came back to her senses and her expression changed completely.
“Who did this? It’s an engagement banquet. Why are you showing this crap?
“Turn off the screen!”
After watching the video, Bruce was completely shocked.
All these years, he hated Joanna for setting him up.
No matter how she explained or denied it, he did not believe anything she said.
In the two years of their marriage, he had humiliated her in all sorts of ways.
But now…
Bruce took a deep breath and there was a gloomy expression on his handsome face. He
subconsciously loosened his tie and left the stage without saying a word.
“Bruce, what are you doing?”
Seeing that Bruce was about to leave, Roxanne hurriedly chased after him down the stage.
“I’m sorry!”
Soon, the backstage staff turned off the projection’s power, and the screen finally turned black.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Bruce, where exactly are you going?”
I’m sorry, the engagement is canceled. I can’t marry you!”
When Roxanne heard this, her whole heart sank. She shouted with a trembling voice, “Bruce!”
Ingrid also rushed forward and shouted, “Mr. Everett, Mr. Everett…”
Bruce felt extremely frustrated in his heart. As everyone was watching, he unbuttoned his suit coat and
took it off.
Then, despite that people were persuading him to stay, he strode away with a long face.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, stunned.
Chapter 86
Bruce left the hotel.
And Andy was chasing after him carefully.
“Andy.”
“Yes, Mr. Everett.”
“Find out who the hacker is.”
Yes, sir.”
Bruce said grimly, “Also, find out who sent Joanna to my room six years ago.
“No matter what the price is, we have to find out who this person is.”
“Got it, Mr. Everett.”
After Bruce left, the entire engagement banquet became quite awkward.
Tears streamed down Roxanne’s face. “Mom…”
Ingrid and Shaun had no choice but to go to Margaret. “Mrs. Everett, this is…”
“Well, I’m sorry about what happened today. Please enjoy yourselves and make yourselves
comfortable.”
“Mrs. Everett, what about the engagement?”
Margaret covered her temples with her hands. I’m not feeling well. I’m sorry but I think I have to leave
now.”
“What about the marriage?”
Margaret pondered for a few seconds and said solemnly, “Let’s wait for Bruce to make his own decision
about the marriage.”
With that. Margaret didn’t say anything else. Under the escort of her bodyguards, she also left in a
hurry.
“Mom, what should we do?”
Ingrid stomped her feet and cursed, “It must be that slut, Joanna. I knew she wouldn’t be willing to see
you marry into the Everett family!”
Derick could not help but scold, “Other than her, no one else will interfere! I won’t let her off!!”
“Mom, will Bruce cancel the engagement with me?”
“How would I know? It’s all your fault. You’ve failed me!
“I have to make every decision for you!”
Shaun looked worried. “Stop arguing! You can’t blame Roxy for what happened.
“Who deliberately ruined the marriage between Roxy and Mr. Everett six years ago?”
When Ingrid heard this, she pursed her lips. There was a flaming anger in her heart that was
suffocating her.
What happened six years ago was all designed by her.
However, her goal was only to ruin Joanna’s reputation.
She had never expected things to turn out this way.
Chapter 86
Now that she thought about it, she couldn’t regret it more. If she could go back to six years ago, she
would definitely not. have done that.
