What Celia said had shaken everyone at the wedding and created an uproar. Everyone started to discuss and whispered to each other.
Although Celia had aged with time and she did not maintain her face very well, it was easy to tell she was quite a beautiful woman in her prime.
Many people thought she was just a woman Adrian met. Who would have thought…Celia actually worked in the household as their nanny when Rianna was pregnant. In other words, Adrian fell for Rianna's nanny when Rianna was pregnant and, at that time, started to think about killing Rianna.
That was why Celia resigned and left Rianna, lying that she needed to go back to her hometown to get married and have kids. The naive Rianna thought Celia was telling the truth. She even gave some money to Celia in hope that Celia would have a great life ahead of her.
As people discussed further, they felt even more sorry for Rianna. Their conclusion was how kind Rianna was and what a jerk Adrian had been.
Adrian's face looked terrible as he overheard some of the discussion. He furrowed his brows vehemently and glared at Joshua who was beside him. "I know there'd be nothing good about your return! I thought you came with a blessing for my new marriage and, at the very least, respect! But I didn't think that you'd come to ruin my wedding!"
"Weren't you the one who invited me to ruin it?" Joshua smiled plainly as he looked at how unsatisfied his father was.
While glancing at Jacqueline who was standing behind Adrian, he added, "As a matter of fact, I need to thank Ms. Grace. Without this wedding and the invitation, I'd never rush back in such a hurry to settle all of these. Thank you for offering this opportunity."
"You're welcome." Jacqueline smiled brightly in her white wedding gown. "I have my purpose, too. There's some personal matter I'd like to settle with you and Ms. Luna later."
She then looked at Luna. "Ms. Luna, how are your friends lately?"
She deliberately emphasized the word 'friends' heavily.
