This scene was a complete surprise to Fade.
However, upon closer inspection, Fade immediately understood what was going on.
Most of the people crowding at the villa were guests from all parts of the country. They were notably wealthy traders from various parts of the country, people of influence.
However, compared to the distinguished guests who lived in the Yue family, their status was inferior. They could not directly suck up to the Yue family, so they came to visit the Yu family instead.
When Shelton saw this, he turned to Fade, "Mr. Chen, standby for a moment. I will find out about the situation."
Fade nodded and stood some ways away from the crowd.
Having this many people visiting, as well as the onlookers around, chattering and gossiping, the area was quite lively.
Fade could hear someone saying, "I heard that Melanie Yu is very capable! At a young age, she had already turned Emerald Plum Jewels into a business empire worth hundreds of billions, she's definitely an accomplished iron lady!"
"Not only that, but Melanie is also beautiful and has a charming figure. For the Yue family to be able to have her as a daughter-in-law, they sure are lucky!”
"But Yohannes Yue is an older man, he's probably in his fifties. I heard that when he went to Dragonville last time, his left leg had been crippled. What a waste it is for a beauty like Melanie to be with a loser like him. Alas, what a pity!"
"What a pity?! you guys must be fools!"
"What power does the Yue family have? What status does Yohannes hold? He is only fifty over years old, but even if he's in his seventies, or paralyzed from the waist down, Melanie would have made it big marrying him."
"You think she's got it big, so why don't you marry him instead?! I wouldn't want to."
"You're blind as a bat!"
"You snob!"
"Hey, stop arguing. I heard that Melanie was reluctant to marry him, but she was locked up in the villa by the Yu family. They were going to send her directly to the bridal chamber once the wedding starts!" "There's such a thing? Such a powerful family like the Yue, such a powerful person like Yohannes... Would Melanie be unwilling to

"Who knows? Apparently, somebody said Melanie is in a relationship with a younger kept man and they decided to be together for their whole lives, that's why she doesn't want to marry this old man, Yohannes."
"What about the kept man, where is he now? Melanie is going to be married, why did we not see him appear, is he so heartless?"
"You're being unreasonable now. Having to confront the Yue family, who would have the guts to come? Would he seeking for his own demise?"
When Fade heard all these, he couldn't help furrowing his brows, and a hint of rage flashed in his gaze.
He scoffed and whispered to himself, "The Yue family and Yu family, I've warned you before. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for not giving you mercy."
Right this moment, Shelton returned. He said to Fade, "Mr. Chen, it's done. We can go in now. This way please!"
The two went through the crowd, heading in the direction of the villa entrance.
When the others saw that the two men were approaching, someone shouted discontentedly. "What's this, why can they enter and not us?!" "Yeah, they were obviously here after us. First come first serve, do you not have rules?!"
In the middle of the commotion, the two did not say anything. Shelton immediately flashed an official token at the crowd and they fell silent.
