This handsome and charming man, this kind of wedding, is what every woman dreams of.
The scene then shifts to the two Masters of Ceremonies being interviewed on stage...
Old Mrs. Geoffrey’s good mood is written all over her face today, and her smile lingers on her noble demeanor, as Mr. Robinson politely gestures for Old Mrs. Geoffrey to speak.
Old Mrs. Geoffrey then recounts the story of how Howard Geoffrey met Alice Robinson, and after a round of applause from the audience, it was time for the media to ask questions...
A reporter began, "Old Mrs. Geoffrey, is Miss Robinson the daughter-in-law you consider most suitable?"
Mrs. Geoffrey answered, "Of course, my son’s marriage to Alice is his luck and my blessing."
The reporter focused the camera on Mrs. Geoffrey and continued, "But I’ve heard that Old Mrs. Geoffrey, you were always fond of Mr. Geoffrey’s ex-wife and seemed to have gone back to the Flowery Kingdom several times to try to reunite Mr. Geoffrey and his ex-wife, Rebecca Quentin... Why the change now?"
Hearing the reporter’s question, Mrs. Geoffrey’s face darkened, and Mr. Robinson beside her also looked a bit uneasy.
As Mrs. Geoffrey was about to retort, another reporter inquired, "Old Mrs. Geoffrey, there’s a rumor that Mr. Geoffrey and Miss Quentin, because of your matchmaking, are indeed on the path to reconciliation, but because Miss Robinson is the niece of the International Business Chairman, which is more beneficial to ’Skytop’s’ future, you suddenly changed your attitude towards Miss Quentin, leading to Mr. Geoffrey and Miss Robinson’s dating, is that right?"
Mrs. Geoffrey’s face became increasingly grim.
Then another reporter followed up, "Yes, Old Mrs. Geoffrey, there are also witnesses saying Miss Quentin is already pregnant with Mr. Geoffrey’s child and is currently waiting to give birth in the U.S. at Orton, and today a witness even called our press to say they saw Miss Quentin being wheeled into the delivery room... Is Old Mrs. Geoffrey planning to let this child become Mr. Geoffrey’s illegitimate child?" Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI★Fire.net
The words "illegitimate child" instantly caused a stir at the scene...
Mr. Robinson stared incredulously at Mrs. Geoffrey, whose face turned ghostly pale.
Soon, more topics surrounding Howard Geoffrey’s "illegitimate child" emerged...
Finally, Mr. Robinson could no longer hold back and asked Mrs. Geoffrey, "Does Howard really have an illegitimate child?"
Mrs. Geoffrey didn’t know how to answer, her hesitance further fueled the public’s speculation.
Suddenly, Mr. Robinson, looking stern and furious, walked off the stage, pulling a stunned Alice Robinson away from the wedding scene.
When surrounded by reporters asking questions, Mr. Robinson simply said coldly, "My daughter will not marry for interests, and I will not allow a partner who has an illegitimate child!"
The scene ended here, as Rebecca Quentin looked dazed, staring blankly for a long moment.
Isabella Joanna slowly said, "I told you, it’s a bit hard to explain..."
As the air in the hospital room grew tense, the door swung open from the outside, and Christine Quinn’s voice came through, "Becca, I just saw the news by chance, and it turns out yesterday Howard and Alice..."
Seeing Isabella Joanna nod to her, and seeing the lost look on Rebecca Quentin’s face, Christine Quinn instantly understood, standing still.
New York, XXX Public Hospital.
Howard Geoffrey sat by the bedside, his thoughts heavy as he looked at his mother who lay weak on the hospital bed.
"Mom, don’t be angry, it will harm your health, and I will worry."
No one would have thought that when Mr. Robinson took Alice away, Mrs. Geoffrey would faint on stage.
Mrs. Geoffrey trembled as she held Howard’s hand, sighing softly, "How could a perfectly good wedding have turned into such a mess?"
Howard sighed in response, "It was my oversight. I didn’t expect the media to be so sharp-nosed."
"You can’t be blamed, you’ve been busy with wedding preparations these days, how could you know the media would stir up such trouble... Now, to catch the eye of the news, they’re really doing everything they can."
Howard reassured, "Mom, don’t worry, I’ll handle this."
Mrs. Geoffrey lamented, "What’s the use of handling it now? We’ve already made the Robinsons so angry, now it’s up to Alice to see if she can understand..."
Howard remained silent.
Mrs. Geoffrey continued, "Those reporters said Rebecca Quentin was wheeled into the delivery room today, is that true?"
Howard responded seriously, "I don’t know, I haven’t been aware of her whereabouts."
"Now that Rebecca Quentin’s childbirth has been exposed, the whole world is watching how we Geoffrey handle it. We not only need to explain to Alice but also to Rebecca, otherwise, who knows what society will say about the Geoffrey!"
