Supreme Mars novel Chapter 204

Hearing that, Leo seemed to have a slight fluctuation on his composed face.

Caroline stared at him expectantly, trying to capture something different from his expression.

Unfortunately, the fluctuation simply flashed away in an instant. Then his face regained composure. He then smiled while looking at her gently, “Happy wedding.”

Caroline stared at him blankly. Her eyes were soon filled with frustration. She forced out a bitter smile, unspoken.

They grew up together since childhood, during which they once promised to each other, though it sounded quite ridiculous at present—they would step into the wedding hall someday they grew up. However, everything changed ever since the alliance between the Fords and the Lawsons.

The stronger their love once was, the stronger the hatred grew. At that time, she deemed that it was Leo who caused the doom of her family. From then on, they were no more lovers, but enemies.

But now all the hatred had been dissipated as she was about to be part of another prestigious family by marriage.

Females were all born to be emotional, especially when they were facing the greatest event in their lives—marriage.

However, Leo showed no hint of struggle. Not even a sense of sadness.

Benedict had witnessed all these. His calm-looking face suddenly gave a twitch. His eyes were bearing hostility while he was staring at Leo.

But calmness soon replaced the sign of hostility.

He could tell that Caroline still had feelings for Leo though she still restrained herself from cheating.

“No!”

Rebecca was the first to shout out, “Everyone in the city could be on the guest list but not this wimp!”

Patricia, Samuel and everyone present simply watched but no one stood out to stop her.

William pulled Rebecca behind and huffed, “Why can’t Leo? I, as the one in charge, have never expelled him from the family. Don’t’ judge him with your own bias.”

“William Ford, listen, now your last name has been changed into Ford ever since you married me. As the one backed by the power of ours, you never have the right to refute!”

Perhaps it was because of the attendance of her family, Rebecca acted like a shrew. She then turned to shout at William, “Listen! Both you and that wimp are the same! Without out aids, you would have starved yourself on the street.”

“Mom, stop it!”

Embarrassed, Caroline hurried to grab her arm to stop her.

But Rebecca shook off her grip. She pointed at Leo while saying to Caroline, “That wimp only brings bad luck to all! I can’t believe you were even once in relationship. Listen! Your wedding with Benedict should be carried on smoothly. If he dares to mess it up, just get ready for my revenge.”

Hearing that, Leo just sneered, “Are you sure he does love Caroline?”

As he finished, Caroline was shocked with her eyes wide open. While Benedict was wearing a displeased face.

“How dare you question him! I gotta tear you apart!”

Rebecca rushed to his front with burning anger and was about to slap him.

However, her hand was grabbed in the air by Leo.

Leo stared at her coldly as if she were already dead.

“You…how dare you fight back! Let go of me!”

Rebecca was scared. She struggled to pull her hand off from his grip.

But no matter how she struggled, Leo still grabbed her wrist just like a strong clamp. Little could she draw her hand off.

“Now I spare the Fords my mercy for the sake of dad and Caroline. But it doesn’t mean that you can do whatever you want.”

“Besides, it’s up to Caroline herself to decide her own marriage.”

Leo’s voice sounded so cold that he seemed to lose his humanity. Everyone present couldn’t help shivering. Rebecca, who stood in the front to face his anger, stared at him with her eyes wide open.

She could never believe that this coward dared to be rude to her.

Meanwhile, tears started to well up in Caroline’s eyes.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat at this moment.

Leo cast a cold glimpse at Rebecca. As soon as he let go of her wrist, she slumped onto the ground weakly.

But soon her face returned to be furious, “You will definitely regret what you’ve done today!”

“Mrs. Ford, don’t be mad just because of a nobody.”

At this moment, Benedict walked over to support Rebecca to stand up again. He cast a glimpse at Leo and smiled, “Just let him be one of the guests if he wants. I would like to show him how much I love Caroline.”

Rebecca showed no doubt about what he said. She echoed gratefully, “Benedict, that’s the greatest blessing for Caroline to marry you.”

Benedict smiled and then walked over to Caroline. He gently hugged her in front of Leo.

Caroline looked at Leo with mixed feelings. But she gave up after a slight struggle.

Since Benedict had said so, Rebecca no more insisted. She glanced at Leo coldly, “Well, you heard what Benedict said. So I would like to make an exception this time. But I need you to bring a hundred thousand as the wedding gift for her. Don’t forget about that.”

“Mom! What are you doing?”

Caroline broke free from Benedict’s hug. She glared at Rebecca, “I sent him the invitation! But now you ask for a hundred thousand? How could he afford it!”

“Yeah, I know.” Rebecca sneered. She cast a disdainful glimpse at Leo, “What if he just dropped by to booze and gorge during the wedding banquet? So some money will be needed as permission.”

Leo still remained composed. He walked to Caroline and took out a vintage jade stone with uneven surface. Then he put it onto Caroline’s palm.

“I happened to get the stone in Elview Mountain when I was serving in the army. It’s called Turquoise. It should be worth more than ten million. And wish you happy wedding.”

Seeing that, Nadine was suddenly rendered startled.

She hesitated to persuade, “But master…”

“Stop.” Leo waved his hand to stop her from saying.

Nadine managed to hold back her words. She stared at Leo, with her mind overwhelmed with mixed feelings. No one knew about this stone named Turquoise. But she did.

Elview Mountain was located in the northern end of Country X, where there hidden all kinds of invaluable jade stones. While callaite was among them.

But a common callaite shone jade green glow all over. But this one was bloody red.

That was because the stone was dyed red by Leo’s blood when he was fighting the Nine Supremes alone.

So the stone was priceless.

It was actually dyed red by the blood of Leo!

Caroline stared at this glowing stone with unique texture. Mixed feelings surged up in her heart.

However, little did Rebecca have any understanding about the value of the stone. She grabbed it from Caroline and dumped it away just like garbage.

She sneered with great disdain, “A random stone you got from nowhere values tens of million? Your bluff sounds so hilarious!”
