Chapter 440: Utterly Humiliated!
Fiona Vaughn and Tyson Law stood on the red carpet under the tarmac, graciously accepting the blessings of the crowd.
"Second Young Master Law, I wish you and Goddess Fiona a lifetime of happiness!"
"Thank you, please go to the hotel to drop off your luggage first, I apologize for any lack of hospitality."
Tyson Law smiled at a guest but glanced worriedly at the other figures.
This was the last flight to the Isle of Whispers today; if they missed this one, there would be no more flights from Veridia today.
The men and women on the tarmac were all dressed gorgeously, yet those two familiar faces were still missing.
Could it be that Cecilia Vaughn and Adrian Law were really going to miss today’s wedding?
...
Tyson Law frowned slightly in astonishment, glancing hesitantly at Fiona Vaughn.
"Fiona, did Cecilia mention when she and Mr. Law would arrive?"
Today was his and Fiona Vaughn’s big day. Although Adrian Law had always been at odds with them, he had promised their father that he would attend the wedding.
If Cecilia Vaughn and Adrian Law both didn’t come, how could they present a harmonious family image to the reporters?
Despite their private issues, on such an auspicious day, appearances still mattered.
...
Fiona Vaughn bit her beautiful crimson lip, her cheeks turning slightly pale as Tyson Law looked at her.
"I called my sister yesterday, and although she said she would come, she seemed very unhappy. I even asked if she and Mr. Law had a falling out, but she wouldn’t give me a straight answer..."
"Tyson, do you think my sister and Mr. Law might..."
Seeing Fiona Vaughn looking so aggrieved as if she suffered a great injustice on the phone, Tyson Law’s expression suddenly turned dark.
The reporters nearby overheard their conversation and slyly leaned in closer.
"Goddess Fiona, are you saying that Mr. Law and the Vaughn family’s eldest daughter are really on the verge of divorce?"
Tears glistened in Fiona Vaughn’s eyes as she avoided the camera lens, her voice a bit flustered.
"I...as for Mr. Law and my sister’s marriage, I’m just an outsider, but from what my sister says, Mr. Law refuses to give her a wedding. I advised her that marriage is important and she should have a proper status..."
"Who would have thought... both of them would outright plan to miss the wedding today... sob, though today’s my happy day, I really wish my sister could find a happy ending, but now..."
Chloe Alden was outraged at Fiona Vaughn’s plea for fairness and grabbed her wrist indignantly.
"Fiona, how can you be so kind as to wish happiness for such a shameless woman? It’s only natural for someone like her to be divorcing Mr. Law! What normal man would like her?!"
"Screenshots of it have been all over Weibo. Mr. Law married her only for a sham marriage agreement! The marriage was a joke!"
Fiona Vaughn looked pitiable with her head bowed, and after a moment, a tear glided down her cheek like a crystal.
"Chloe, don’t talk about my sister like that... Maybe my sister and Mr. Law have their reasons... I’ll call to ask where they are, maybe something delayed them..."
"Reasons, my foot! You haven’t seen flights from Veridia to the Isle of Whispers are completely canceled! If Mr. Law truly valued her, there’s no way he’d refuse to come to the wedding with her!"
"Fiona, don’t concern yourself with that shameless woman. She’s lucky Mr. Law dumped her now. Today’s your big day, so make sure you smile happily and be the most beautiful bride, don’t let someone like her affect your mood."
The reporters hearing Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn’s conversation were in an uproar.
"Wait a minute, Miss Alden, Mr. Law’s prepared to completely break ties with Cecilia Vaughn, their relationship’s collapsed, they’re really divorcing?"
"Haven’t you seen the marriage agreement on Weibo! They weren’t a real couple to begin with! Divorce is the right thing to do now!"
Chloe Alden raised her head proudly, vividly recalling Adrian Law’s handsome and dignified appearance. Such a man shouldn’t belong to someone with a sordid past!
Chloe Alden felt a secret satisfaction, knowing that there were reporters live broadcasting the event. She didn’t care.
After all, the last flight to the Isle of Whispers had stopped flying; Cecilia Vaughn would probably just watch Fiona’s wedding jealously from some hidden corner, crying her eyes out!
...
Cecilia Vaughn and Adrian Law not coming left the reporters a bit disappointed.
And soon, their remarks appeared all over the live commentary of the cruise ship’s century wedding on the Isle of Whispers.
——Tsk tsk tsk, I didn’t expect it, I was worried Cecilia Vaughn would cause trouble, but who knew she didn’t even have the courage to attend Goddess Fiona’s wedding, it’s hilarious!
——You wouldn’t attend either if you were her, first having a fake marriage exposed and now being dumped by Mr. Law, who’d want to face that embarrassment?
——Indeed, only Goddess Fiona has married the best, let’s quietly admire the goddess!
——Exactly, those troublemakers don’t deserve to be here today. Goddess Fiona is beautiful! Love you forever!
...
To create a 360-degree live streaming effect for this wedding, many drones were deployed for filming, along with various types of cameras, creating a grand spectacle.
Fiona Vaughn knew how to present her best angles, her every smile and gesture exuded grace, her face adorned with a pure and serene smile.
The live commentary increasingly marveled at her stunning looks.
——Wow, Goddess Fiona truly is a treasure of humanity! Sob sob sob, the Second Young Master Law is also handsome, they’re such a perfect match! I think Cecilia Vaughn and Mr. Law didn’t come because they’re too ashamed!
——A fairy and a handsome prince! Licking, licking, licking! I declare myself a forever fan of these two’s looks!
Since Fiona Vaughn had to entertain guests and couldn’t use her phone, Chloe Alden was responsible for whispering the praises from the live chat praising her beauty.
Fiona Vaughn felt extremely proud inside, but her smile grew shyer.
Just then, the roaring sound of a plane distracted everyone’s attention.
"Didn’t they say flights are grounded? What is that?"
Everyone looked up in amazement, seeing a small black dot in the sky getting closer and clearer.
"Is that a helicopter?"
"Who’s that? Making such a grand entrance? I’m shocked!"
Even though there were many noble families present, not everyone could afford such extravagance!
...
Fiona Vaughn suddenly had a bad premonition, clutching Tyson Law’s arm more tightly.
The helicopter landed smoothly, the door slowly opening to reveal two figures—
