The Lester family broke into an uproar.
Brandon had invited all the influential, wealthy people in Seacisco to his wedding, except the Lester family.
When Elissa went to play cards with her friends, her fellow wealthy ladies mocked her, saying the Larson Group didn't respect the Lester family.
Although Lester Silk Fabric and the Larson Group were rivals, Patrick still wanted to make peace and ensure the development of the two companies. If Lester Silk Fabric and the Larson Group joined hands, they would undoubtedly monopolize the economic lifeline of Seacisco.
However, Brandon's enigmatic personality irked him. Although the Lester family belonged to the wealthiest strata of society, they never interacted with Brandon. They didn't even know what he looked like.
"How come Brandon got married all of a sudden? I haven't even heard of him being in love with anyone before." Elisa grunted angrily and took a sip of the tea. Her nose scrunched up with disgust as the horrible taste spread in her mouth. Ritchie slept all morning and finally woke up in the afternoon. He went downstairs, yawning, and turned on the TV in the living room.
"Why do you care about Brandon? Our Lester family is in no way inferior to him. His invitation means nothing to us."
Ritchie scoffed disdainfully as he sat on the sofa, cross-legged.
"You don't understand. Brandon has invited all the famous people in Seacisco except our Lester family. You have no idea how those bitches insulted me while playing cards. They want to defeat me in everything, so those ladies took the opportunity to mock me by talking about his wedding the whole time. It was horrible!" Elissa was fuming with rage.
She glanced at the entertainment news on the TV. Suddenly, her face turned pale, and her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Seeing the horror in his mother's eyes, Ritchie also turned to look at the TV.
"Mom? What happened? Damn it!"
They were broadcasting Brandon's wedding on TV. However, the couple getting married was the coward Ethan and his humble wife.
Just then, Patrick came downstairs. He was equally shocked. He stared at the TV with wide eyes.
"Oh my God! It's Ethan." Patrick couldn't believe his eyes.
