Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 96

After they chatted for a while, Edward told her to rest up and bid her farewell. He promised to visit her sometime soon.

As he walked out the door, Edward ordered his men to take good care of Madeline. If anything happened, they were to inform the doctor immediately.

To be honest, Edward didn't want to see Cameron and Eric anymore, but his grandmother had spoken. In that case, he would let matters be. He took out his mobile phone and called Claudia—

"Mum, I plan to send them abroad after my wedding."

Of course, Claudia knew who he was referring to.

"Why?" Claudia asked in confusion.

"Cameron begged Grandma to let him attend the wedding. She was soft-hearted and agreed when she saw his pitiful act."

"I suppose it doesn't make much difference. By the way, how are the preparations for your wedding going? I hope nothing goes wrong that day."

"What was he trying to behave as a father? At the very least, he should see whether Edward was willing or not!" Claudia thought coldly. 

"It's almost ready," Edward said. He was confident that the arrangements he had made would surely make this wedding unforgettable.

"Alright. You should still pay attention to Eric. Just in case." Claudia reminded him.

"Okay, I'll be careful."

...

Cameron and Eric returned to the Wilson Mansion

"Eric, do you have a plan in mind? All we need to do is attend the wedding?" Cameron asked in confusion. Eric didn't explain much. He simply told him to delay their departure.

"Yes, but we first need to make some arrangements," Eric replied.

"We still have loyal subordinates within the company. Although they don't hold high positions, they are still useful. In addition, we have money. With this, we can make them suffer. It should be easy to recruit people to do our bidding," Cameron said.

Both of them discussed it once more to ensure their plan was perfect. This was their only chance at revenge!

Suddenly, Eric's phone rang.

"Didn't I tell you not to contact me if there is nothing important?" Eric asked. He didn't want to be careless. Perhaps Edward was too preoccupied with the wedding preparations and ignored them a bit, but he couldn't afford to make any mistake.

"Haha, I just can't wait. How're things there?" Celine asked with a smile.

"Everything is fine. I've arranged for you to go inside as a waiter. Someone will pick you up after you enter the premises. Alright, I'll hang up first. I'll inform you once everything is settled."

"We just need to be careful not to let Edward and Irene notice us..."

Before Eric could finish, Celine had already hung up the phone. Rude!

Celine looked at the photos of Edward and Irene in her room after she hung up. She laughed hysterically as she touched her belly, saying, "Little one, I just can't wait!"

Irene's face had been blackened out with a pen or had been torn out of the picture. It looked rather scary.

Celine stroked Edward's photo and muttered to herself. Her expression softened, as though she was recalling something happy. It was a terrifying scene indeed.

...

Today was the day of the wedding. Almost all of the influential people in S City were in attendance, and many celebrities were also present.

This was the Wilson president's wedding. It would be a pity to miss such a grand ceremony. Moreover, this was a good opportunity to establish connections with the Wilson Group.

The presidents of some small groups or companies were also present. They wanted to build some friendship with the Wilson Group. 

However, this wedding wasn't open to the public. Only those who received the invitation were allowed entry.

Everyone had speculated what the wedding would be like, but the preparations were kept top secret. It had not been leaked to the public at all. The girls of S City were envious when they heard rumours that the president wanted to surprise his wife.

It wasn't until today that they realised how lavish it would be as they held their gold-plated invitations. The Wilson Group had spared no effort to make it as luxurious as possible! Everyone was stunned.

It was a seaside wedding!

A giant luxury ship was parked at the port, waiting for the guests.

They knew just how large the ship was when they set foot on it. This wasn't their first event on a cruise ship, but the extravagance of this wedding floored them.

Blue and white colours were strewn all over the cruise. Ribbons of those colours fluttered in the sea breeze. Elaborately arranged flowers decorated every corner of the cruise ship, attracting the attention of people.

Food and wine were abundant, and the waiters ran around serving the guests in blue uniforms.

There was a lounge, an entertainment room, and a dining room on the luxury cruise. The halls were spacious and could fit all of the arriving guests comfortably. The splendid decorations appealed to the crowds. Yes, this level of luxury was befitting the president of the Wilson Group.

After all, the number of staff, resources and amount of money needed to host such an extravagant event could only be accomplished by the wealthy.

The guests chatted to each other as they wandered about the cruise. The wedding ceremony hadn't begun yet. The men gathered together to discuss business and politics, while the women talked about jewelry, clothes, and the bride.

Meanwhile, Irene and Millicent were in the dressing room. The stylist and makeup artist were getting her makeup ready for the wedding.

"What happened, Irene? I can tell you're feeling nervous," Millicent asked. Irene looked rather worried.

"No, it's nothing. I just have this inexplicable sense of dread since yesterday. It feels like something bad is going to happen," Irene said.

"Oh, my. You aren't having a heart attack, are you? Hahahaha," Millicent joked.

"Maybe it's all in my head," Irene said hesitantly.

"Perhaps I'm just overthinking again. What is the worst that could happen?" Irene thought.

"Alright. Today is your big day. The bride must be happy!" Millicent comforted her.

Suddenly, Millicent brought a beautiful box out of nowhere and said mysteriously, "Quick, open it. There's a surprise."

"What is it? Why did you bring it out now? Is it a wedding gift for me?" Irene opened the box as she spoke.

"I can't possibly afford it," Millicent said jealously. Deep down, she also wanted such beautiful jewellery.

A necklace and a pair of earrings sat in the box. Irene was stunned when she saw them. They were indescribably pretty.

There was a blue gem in the middle of the necklace, carefully carved into the shape of a mermaid. Beside it was a small transparent diamond, bringing out the sparkle of the mermaid.

A lighter blue gemstone was carved into the shape of a heart and was placed in the mermaid's hands. It looked like a mermaid was holding a precious heart. It sparkled under the light, accentuating its beauty. Irene sighed at the beautiful workmanship of the designer.

When she wore the necklace around her neck, it made her look like a swan, beautiful and slender.

The earrings were also made of rare sapphires sold on the market. The sapphires were cleverly cut into countless pieces, then arranged to look like waves that seemed to flow along with the movements of the owner.

"This is the mermaid set made by Mr. Karel Nar. It's the only one in the world! Edward had it specially prepared for your wedding," Millicent said.

Moreover, it matched Irene's wedding dress perfectly.

Her wedding dress was white, adorned with small blue diamonds on her waist, chest, and skirt. The rest of the dress was inlaid with transparent diamonds that didn't stand out.

However, those diamonds would catch the light and reflect with each movement Irene made.

Irene's hair was curled and her shoulders were exposed. Her face looked gorgeous, like a delicate princess emerging from the depths of the ocean.

D*mn capitalist!

Millicent wanted to teach Edward a lesson. She had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make fun of the groom. Irene probably wouldn't mind.

"By the way, Irene, I should inform you about this first. If Edward doesn't pass my test when he arrives, I won't let him have you so easily," Millicent said coquettishly.

"Who told him to be so unappreciative of my help? Hmmph! There's no way I'll let him marry my best friend just like that. Besides, just leave it to me to vent your anger from before!" Millicent declared.

Irene smiled when she looked at Millicent's childish appearance. She figured she should just let her be. She wasn't the sort to wreak havoc on purpose.

After Irene was done getting ready, she went to meet Edward. He was stunned by her beauty.

It was said that marriage was the most beautiful moment for women. As it turned out, it was true!

Irene was already beautiful. But she was simply dazzling when she wore this wedding dress with her hair and makeup done. Edward was in awe despite having seen many pretty women in the past.

Millicent didn't make a scene when Edward arrived. She merely passed him a red envelope and allowed him to walk away with Irene.
