Chapter 810

When Benjamin arrived at the entrance with Arissa in tow, members of the Adams family came up to receive them.

“Benjamin, you're here. Quick, come in!” Aaron's parents gave them a warm welcome.

“Aaron was just here a moment ago.”

“Mr. Adams, Mrs. Adams,” Benjamin greeted with a nod.

Aaron's parents smiled as they took a good look at him. “Rosetta's back too.”

Benjamin nodded in acknowledgment. “Let's head in then.”

A glint flashed across Arissa's eyes.

Rosetta Adams? The Adams family? Is someone in Rosetta's family getting married?

At the sight of Arissa, the smile on the Adamses' faces froze. “Please, be my guest.”

“Mr. Adams, Mrs. Adams.”

After Kingsley and the others greeted the Adamses in turn, they quickly followed Benjamin and Arissa inside.

“Benjamin, your seat is at the main table,” Kingsley informed.

“I'm fine with sitting with you guys. Lead the way.”

Benjamin gave Kingsley a look that the latter quickly understood.

“Right this way.”

Walking behind Benjamin, Arissa scanned the surroundings.

The atmosphere was lively, and there were plenty of guests around. Those who knew Benjamin would come over

and exchange pleasantries.

Amidst it all, Arissa would just stand by his side and smile. Fortunately, Benjamin would quickly walk away once he

had returned their greetings.

“Are you all right?” Benjamin checked in on her.

“Mmm-hmm.” Arissa nodded.

“Benjamin!”

All of a sudden, a gentle voice rang out, followed by a woman throwing herself into Benjamin's arms.

Sensing her approach, the alert Benjamin dodged her and stepped to the side with Arissa in his arms.

Grasping at thin air, Rosetta stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

She then gave Benjamin a sad look. “Benjamin...”

“Please be more careful, Ms. Adams.”

As Benjamin remained expressionless, an awkward look flashed across Rosetta's face.

“Benjamin, I'm back.”

Benjamin threw her an indifferent glance. “I know.”

Subsequently, he turned toward Arissa, worried that she would let her imagination run wild. “Let's go over there.”

“Mmm-hmm.”

Retracting her gaze from Rosetta, Arissa followed Benjamin to their seats.

Unbeknownst to her, Rosetta was seething at her with her fists tightly clenched.

Benjamin actually brought a woman to my brother's wedding despite knowing that I'll be back. He must be doing it

just to spite me.

Amidst her darkening gaze, the anger and indignance within her caused her expression to turn stony.

“Rosetta, you're back!” Kingsley greeted cheerfully.

Shifting her gaze back to the group, Rosetta exclaimed, “Why did you only come over now?”

“We went home for a siesta,” Shaun responded plainly.

During the lull after picking up the bride with Aaron, they had gone back to rest.

“Please, have a seat. My brother is probably upstairs.”

Rosetta ushered them over.

“We'll be fine. You don't have to take us. Mr. and Mrs. Adams probably need your help to entertain the guests,”

Kingsley declined politely before signaling Shaun and Jonathan to go ahead.

Rosetta responded with a cordial nod.

“All right then. I'll go entertain the other guests. You guys go right in as the wedding is about to start.”

With that, Kingsley, Shaun, and Jonathan joined Benjamin's table.

Meanwhile, Kingsley—noticing that there were five empty seats left—quickly filled them up with a few familiar

faces.

Subsequently, everyone chatted idly while waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Even though Benjamin's presence discouraged the crowd from speaking freely, Kingsley introduced Arissa in order

to liven up the atmosphere. “This is Arissa, Benjamin's woman.”

His words gave everyone a shock as they turned to scrutinize her.

The smiling Arissa then greeted them with a nod.

After all, she didn't know any of them.

“Have some water.”

Benjamin put a glass of water down in front of her, to which she nodded at him in thanks.

As she lifted her glass to take a sip, she snuck a glance at him.

Did he bring me here on purpose to declare my status to Rosetta?
