BXBX NOVEL Chapter 42 - Something Happens at the Wedding
Proofread by Peter Gong
The words don’t irritate Brian, but they are like a fist which hits on the sponge, and finally get no response. Then they don’t talk with each other. It’s the first time for the driver to see such a situation, therefore, he shivers inevitably. Of course, Brian’s wedding is a big news here, and the guests are also powerful. Li grew up in Si’s family, so it is reasonable for her to be the hostess of Si’s family. Although it is abrupt, people still think it is natural. After all, they are just outsiders and know nothing about the real condition of the family.
When she walks to Brian in her holy white wedding dress, some inner emotions arise in Florence’s heart. This used to be her dreamy scene ten years ago. She dreamed of that heaps of times and would always wake up with a smile. She dreamed that the man she loved smiled at the end of the red carpet, waiting for her, as it is now. But at the moment, she feels bitter and sad. Li’s ten years of youth seems to be as long as the short distance to him at the moment. Now, she has more bitterness in her heart as she walks closer towards him step by step. The man in front of her hasn’t changed. He is handsome with indifference in his eyes, just like the original boy. The only thing that has changed is Florence’s heart, and Brian is not irreplaceable.
Finally she comes to him and the audience applaud for them. At the great wedding, both of Brian and Florence have their own thoughts. Li still isn’t at ease, and she keeps seeing Austin, and then goes to see the clock on the wall. The wedding has already half finished, but it seems that he isn’t about to leave. She inadvertently glances at the audience, but she is surprised to find a little boy among them. Nelson is sitting in the first row and pouting his mouth. He seems to be very reluctant, and Nanny Liu is sitting beside him. Obviously, he is forced to come here. The pastor on the stage is chanting the wedding vows. Brian also looks at her softly, and his smile is full of love, at least it looks real on the surface. However, their conversation can be compared to a horrible storm.
“Guess what? Nelson is here.” His words makes Li open her eyes to stare at him. She knows that Brian will know her plan, but it should happen after the wedding, not now! A sly fox! Brian smiles gently, his eyes fall on Austin, and then he says significantly, “The play has just begun, Florence Li, enjoy it.” Li stares at him with her beautiful eyes, and her teeth are even grounded. She does not care what her face looks like. It’s time to exchange rings. In this way, Florence is in a dilemma at the moment.
As they are putting on the rings for each other, Li thinks that it’s like “throwing good money after bad.” Since her plan failed, her brain has become confused. For a time, her brain is blank and she does not know what she is doing, or even has no intention to think about the good play he just mentioned means. After she exchanges the rings unconsciously, several people in police uniform appear at the wedding site. They find Austin and take him away. Li immediately gets flustered, and her attention is immediately paid to him. “Sir, you modified a will privately. It’s against the law. Please come with us.” Their voices are neither so loud nor low, but everyone here can hear that clearly.
It causes an uproar among the people. Austin has been with the old man for such a long time and has a good reputation, but now he is going to be in prison, what a pity! Florence is shocked by the policeman’s words. Although she doesn’t know the details, she understands that he must do such things for her. At the same time, she also realizes that everything today is well arranged by Brian. He intends to let her see those around her get into trouble because of herself, both Nelson and Austin! Li’s heart seems to be tightly clenched by someone. She even can’t breathe because of the pain. She raises her hand and slaps Brian hard. The loud voice surprises everyone. Her eyes are red, but she also tries her best to hold back the tears. Her eyebrows are full of anger, “Brian, you are so disgusted.”
After finishing her words,Li runs down the stage with the dress lifted in her hands. Without waiting for Brian to get upset, she uses her little body to protect Austin from the policemen. She faces them with her stubborn eyes, “There’s no evidence to prove that he modified the will, you can’t take him away!” A policeman’s face turns cold, “Just business. The evidence is conclusive. Please don’t interfere with our business.” Austin pulls her back, even with a warm smile on his face, and comforts her instead, “Florence, it’s OK, don’t worry.” That’s what makes her lose her composure. She shakes her head randomly, grabs his hand tightly, and tries her best to stop the police from taking him away. People sitting beside watch the situation here in confusion, and it must be another piece of big news.
The hostess of Si’s family who comes from nowhere has such an ambiguous relationship with the old man’s private secretary! Moreover, Brian is still watching here! What a big show! Everyone’s eyes gradually change when they look at Brian. Brian’s emotion has reached the bursting point. His dark eyes become sharper and his voice is deeper. “Florence Li, come here!” Li releases Austin and rushes to him. Tears fall from her elegant face unconsciously. “Are you satisfied, Brian? Are you satisfied? ” She takes off the ring and smashes it on him. “Why did I fall in love with such a wicked man as you? This is my lifelong shame! ”
Brian’s face turns really gloomy. When he goes to take her away, a female voice sounds in the air suddenly, “Stop! Is there anyone who dares to take Austin today? ” Brian frowns tightly, looking at Bonnie Si who has just come back here from abroad. It’s really more heated today. The guests leave gradually. They know that it is their domestic affairs now, and no one dares to touch its bottom line. The wedding venue suddenly becomes cold. Bonnie looks at Austin with a little heartache in her eyes. “You declare the evidence is conclusive, where is the evidence from? Comrade police, I am my father’s daughter. I know better than you about his will. He is my father’s lawyer. I will be responsible for any other problems.” Originally, how to modify the testament should be kept in the family. Now a member of Si’s family comes to protect him. There are not enough reasons for the policemen to take Austin away by force.
