Everyone turned their heads and saw a line of cars arriving for the wedding procession, stopping at the entrance.

The door of the lead car was opened, and Ellis, dressed in a suit, got out with a dark expression on his face.

Upon seeing him, Mary blinked in disbelief and screamed inwardly.

She thought he wasn't coming.

Ellis walked up to her, ignoring the people around him.

Mary's father's hand froze midair before he hurriedly lowered it, and then he smiled ingratiatingly. "Mr. Ellis, was there a traffic jam on the way?"

He was making an excuse for Ellis.

But Ellis just sneered, saying flatly, "I woke up late."

There was indeed a look of fatigue on his face as if he hadn't slept all night. He seemed somewhat haggard. Anyone with eyes could see his displeasure with the marriage.

Still, he had come after all.

Mary's father laughed awkwardly. "It's not late at all. I'm so glad you could come."

Then, turning his head, he tried to welcome Ellis into the room. "We've prepared tea and..."

"Don't bother. Any further delay and the auspicious hour will pass."

He looked directly at Mary. "Are you coming or not?"

Mary's eyes welled up slightly, and she lowered her head. "I am."

Ellis didn't pick her up but turned around and walked briskly ahead, reaching the car door.

Mary immediately followed, trailing her wedding dress behind her as she got into the car with Ellis. Then, suddenly remembering "Keera", she turned back to look for her.

But the car was already surrounded by people, and it was impossible to see the situation around them.

By now, the other groomsmen had stepped forward, beginning to arrange for the bridesmaids' rides.

Most of the young ladies from the Davis family's main branch, Victoria, Rebecca, and the bridesmaids who had come for the procession had been friends since childhood.

So, they were quickly escorted and got into vehicles.

It happened that someone had seen Keira, who was unmistakably eye-catching among the group of bridesmaids, but just as that person was about to approach her, he was stopped by Victoria. "Miss South offended Rebecca. It's best you don't poke your nose into this."

Rebecca was the Allen family's precious treasure.

Who, after all, would want to attract unnecessary trouble by challenging someone like Ellis, known for his devil-may-care attitude?

Therefore, hearing Victoria's words, no other groomsmen dared to come forward.

For a moment, Keira stood there, becoming the center of attention.

Anyone else would have felt extremely awkward.

But she seemed perfectly at ease, not caring in the slightest about the people around her, even glancing into the convoy to see if there was an empty car she could get in.

As she was surveying the surroundings, Rebecca suddenly stood beside her and said, "Miss South, it's quite awkward, isn't it?"

Keira looked at her.

She didn't quite understand how Rebecca had changed so much; in that moment, she even felt estranged from the Rebecca she knew.

Where had the kind, gentle, and slightly timid girl gone?

Keira didn't say anything, and Rebecca continued. "I can spare you this embarrassment. I could have my brother invite you into the car, and I could also agree to a partnership between the Allen family and Keera Technology..."

She lowered her voice suddenly. "As long as you give up Lewis Horton to me!"

Keira didn't know what to say.

She stared at Rebecca and then firmly declared, "That's impossible."

Rebecca's expression sharpened instantly. "Miss South, have you thought this through? Although Lewis Horton is quite formidable, Clance isn't his home ground. Here, with just one word from me, I can leave you isolated and without support!"

However, Keira just scoffed and said no more.

Seeing her obstinate manner, Rebecca was on the verge of breaking down, and her wrathful gaze fixed on Keira. "Fine, if you want to be like this, then don't blame me for not being polite to you anymore!"

She turned directly to the groomsmen. "You're not to invite her, and for today's car fleet, you are not to let her on either!"

This confused the people in the fleet, and someone whispered, "Miss Allen, isn't that a bit much?"

Rebecca's gaze turned icy as she immediately looked at the person who had spoken.

Victoria stepped forward. "What's wrong with that?"

The man answered, "It's just that the wedding will be lacking a bridesmaid..."

Tina also laughed. "What's the big deal? Miss South will surely drive herself, or she'll take a taxi over, won't she?"

The man was instantly speechless.

Tina immediately turned fierce. "You all are from the Olsen family, aren't you? How come? Can you disregard what Miss Allen says, and even dare to ignore Miss Victoria?"

The person in charge dared not speak anymore, and just then, Charles, the Olsen family's second son, who was responsible for his elder brother's wedding today, came over and frowned in question. "What's going on?"

The person in charge explained the situation.

Charles turned to Victoria immediately. "Little sister, are you causing trouble again? Today is Ellis's wedding, so let's not turn it into an ugly scene..."

Victoria sighed. "Charles, it's not me who wants to make it difficult for her, but she had hit Christina earlier... and she really doesn't get along with our family..."

"What?!"

Charles became furious. "She dared to lay hands on Christina?! Can the Olsen family's daughter be subjected to this treatment?!"

Charles had always wanted his sisters.

Seeing other families with sisters, especially the Davis family with a bunch of girls, he envied them so!

But, unfortunately, his own father and two uncles never managed to have a daughter. They eventually had to adopt two.

Although they were not blood-related, Charles still doted on his two sisters greatly.

Thus, hearing this, he immediately found Keira distinctly displeasing. "Why let such a person in the car? She shouldn't even appear at the wedding!"

Leaving these words, Charles waved his hand. "Alright everyone, get in your cars."

Tina then immediately turned to Victoria. "Miss Olsen, your brothers are really fond of you..."

Hearing that, Victoria smiled faintly, clearly feeling triumphant.

Rebecca turned to glance at Keira.

That face resembled her savior's, and she looked aggrieved. It caused some discomfort at the bottom of Rebecca's heart...

But as soon as Rebecca remembered how Keera had taken everything from Keira, her heart that had just softened hardened again.

Everyone could forget Miss Keira, except Lewis Horton!

Thinking about this, Rebecca turned and got into the car.

After everyone got into the cars and the fleet started moving, it seemed as though nobody noticed Keira...

She, in her bridesmaid dress, stood quietly next to the departing cars.

She watched them with cold eyes and sighed softly.

She was in a villa district where even a taxi might not come by for quite a while...

Just as she was wondering how she would get to the wedding, a car suddenly stopped beside her...
