The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 581 - 581 Other sister

581 Other sister

Javier and Ariana drove to the mansion of the Royal family. The wedding was set to be held in the private ambiance of the family where not all the guests were invited.

To celebrate the wedding, a special reception was arranged in the next two days of the wedding where all the media attention was going to be present.

Their car arrived at the center and the driver said, “Sir, we have reached.” The gates of the car were opened and Javier took Ariana’s hands into his.

The father-daughter duo stepped into the huge garden which was decorated with flowers and white tents. There were chairs for everyone and in the middle was the flower-built aisle for the bride to walk.

At the first glance, Javier’s eyes went to look at the magnificent royal house of the family. It wasn’t unknown that the family was using their lavish fortune on such occasions.

Ariana tugged her father’s sleeves and Javier looked at her. “Daddy, this house is so big.”

Javier nodded his head and diverted his eyes back to the huge architectural walls of the house, “Right, Ariana. They are part of the royal family so their belongings are also in the same shape and size.”

“But it looks so antique.” Ariana pointed out the huge terrace and balconies. “Those, I don’t see so many open lobbies in our house, dad.”

Javier saw where she has pointed and watched that the back of the house was connected with the view of the magnificent garden. However, the house was open from the back. The corridors in the house were all greeting the views, just as in the ancient era of the king and queens.

.....

“Our terraces open into the garden. As I told you, they are royal and the design of this mansion is also according to their royalty style... ” Javier answered softly and patiently.

While coming across the people, Javier straightaway decided to greet the hosts. He walked straight to the man of this event, none other than the CEO of a big family business and the groom of the day, Prince Arthur.

Javier stood in front of him with a gentle smile tugging his lips. He extended his hand and Prince Arthur took the same. “Congratulations on your wedding.”

“Myself, Javier Johnsons, and she i-”

“I know who you are, Mr. Johnsons.” Arthur’s cold and hard tone took Javier by surprise. He was left baffled as he asked back, “I believe Prince Arthur wasn’t expecting my arrival today.”

Arthur didn’t make it obvious. In the reply, it wasn’t mentioned who will travel back. Simply an answer was sent that a Johnson member will surely grace the event with his presence.

Until now, Arthur’s eyes were already glaring at the man in front of him. If the looks are a weapon, Javier might have been killed hundreds of times.

However, Arthur still graced his lips with a small smile. “We had sent an invitation to the Johnson family because of our old relationship. I was expecting Mr. Charles...”

“My brother had to deal with some stuff. For the sake of the past good relations between our late mothers, I had to come and personally give you my greetings, Prince Arthur.” Javier’s eyes were turning into a crystal moon.

He had no clue why the groom was so hostile toward him. In fact, his presence was not welcomed at all.

Prince Arthur, who stood in a black tuxedo keenly looked at Javier’s face. In return, Javier’s facial expressions twisted but what caught his eyes was the color of the eyeball.

However, his instance was broken when Arthur diverted his attention to Ariana. Suddenly, there was a flower-blooming smile on the man’s face.

“Hello, little princess. My name is Arthur, you can call me uncle Arthur.” Arthur’s smile reached up to his ears and Javier sensed the genuineness in them.

In response, Ariana smiled back with her white teeth flashing. “My name is Ariana Johnson. Congratulations uncle!”

“Thank you my child.” Arthur patted Ariana’s head as if he was really her uncle. Seeing this, Javier’s brows were raised but he didn’t disturb them.

“I have a son too. His name is John. I’m sure he will be very happy to meet you.” Arthur smiled and Ariana could only give him a wide grin.

“I would also like to meet him! Is he of my age?” Ariana didn’t know why but she felt curious. “He is older than you. He will be ten this year.”

“Ten..” Ariana calculated in her mind the age gap between them. “Then he must be five years older than me! I will call him big brother.”

Hearing this, something flashed in Arthur’s eyes but he covered it up. However, the small change didn’t prosper from Javier’s eagle gazes.

“Sure, child. He will be... very pleased to meet his other sister too.” Arthur sensed something and held himself back from muttering anything else

It was at that time when Javier knew he had to interfere. “We will see you around, Prince Arthur. Your bride must be coming here.”

Arthur’s eyes swept across Javier and once again they were radiating back his unpleasant expressions. “I hope Mr.Johnson. I will definitely like Ariana to meet my son.”

“Is that so? I’m sure Ariana will also like to meet her big brother.” Hearing this from Javier, Arthur turned suspicious. But then he heard, “However, why did I never hear that young prince John also had another sister?”

Arthur’s expression froze. His jaw tightened and fingers curled into a tight fist. ‘He has sharp ears to point out such a minor mistake.’

Meanwhile, Javier was rejoicing. He started at the Prince happily but inwardly, he was having his time in giving checkmate to this groom.

Yet Arthur was grateful since his best man came by his side and said loudly, “C’Mon Prince! Your wife is on her way now!”

Javier didn’t try to leave the topic so easily as the men didn’t tear their gazes from each other.

It was Javier who took the initiative to break the typical silence between them. “Congratulations once again, Prince. I hope you will make Ariana meet this other sister as well”
