Stella also turned her head and saw a disheveled man being held back by the security guards not far away.
That man shouted, “The bride is my sister. Let me in!”
All the guests were shocked as they wondered to themselves. ‘Isn’t Hylda an orphan with only one younger brother? Who is this man claiming to be her brother?’
Hylda frowned. “I don’t know this person.”
After hearing that, the disheveled man immediately said,” Sis, I’m Ian. I’ve been looking for you for so long. You used to take me up the hills to pick wild berries when we were kids. I have a birthmark on my arm, and you always teased me, saying I got it from being naughty in Mom’s belly. Sis, do you still remember?”
Hylda paused, and her face suddenly turned extremely pale. The “Ian” who helped her get on the stage looked a little nervous too.
However, Hylda recollected herself very quickly and said while gritting her teeth, “I have no idea where this beggar is from. I’m not your sister. My brother, Ian, has come back home a longtime ago. What are you doing here pretending to be someone else?”
The disheveled man was taken aback and suddenly became agitated. “He’s the fake one! I’m the real Ian White! I did something wrong and was in jail for a little while when you
posted the missing person notice. I just got out recently. Sis, we can do a DNA test if you don’t believe me. This person is impersonating me!”
Hylda got so nervous that her fingers started trembling as she clenched her fists tightly and said deeply, “You don’t even look like a healthy man. Why don’t you get a proper job instead of coming here to scam us?”
“Sis, I’m really Ian!”
The man was worked up as he pulled up his sleeve to reveal his birthmark. “Look, my birthmark is still here!”
Hylda did not want to look at all. She looked composed, but her heart was already in her mouth.
‘Ian… The real Ian White. How did he get here?’
Hylda thought of Stella immediately as she shifted her gaze to her. However, Stella looked just as confused as she observed that man.
‘It’s not her. Who could it be then?’
Hylda was panicking but tried her best to calm herself down anyway. Then, she whispered to Albert, “This man probably heard about Ian’s story somewhere and came to cause trouble. Just give him some money and send him away. It’s my big day today, and I don’t want him to ruin it.”
Albert was a little suspicious.
Hylda was the one who suggested searching for Ian back then. She claimed that her parents were getting old and that they wanted to see their long-lost child before passing away.
Albert helped distribute the missing person’s notice, thinking there was no chance of finding Ian. However, they received good news within just two months.
They did not take down the notice after Ian returned, and several other people claimed to be him over the next few months. However, nobody came forward to do that anymore after the notice had been retracted, so Albert found it very strange.
Despite the doubts, Albert figured it was inappropriate to have someone causing a scene on such an occasion, so he immediately had his assistant handle it.
The disheveled man continued to prove his identity, but there were simply too many security guards. So, he was eventually “asked” to leave the venue.
The farce then came to a temporary end.
Stella shifted her gaze to Keegan and asked, “Is it you?”
Keegan lifted his brows. “A wedding gift,” he answered.
Stella was speechless.
“Why didn’t you talk to me about it first? This is going to raise a lot of suspicion!”
Keegan replied flatly, “The best way to take revenge is not to deliver a fatal blow but to torment the person psychologically, over and over again.”
Stella could not agree more, considering that she had done that herself.
However, she said something different from what she was thinking anyway. “You’re such an evil person. What if I want to break up after spending more time together and find you unsuitable for me? You won’t hold a grudge against me and do something similar, would you?”
Keegan glanced at her. “No, I will not.”
Stella was about to praise him, but she heard him continuing slowly, “I’ll probably just tie you on the bed and drain you every night and day.”
His words took Stella aback. “What’s wrong with being a normal person?”
Keegan chuckled. Then, he leaned into her ear and whispered, “Aren’t you a fan of novels about captivity? I’ll give you a first-hand experience then.”
