Chapter 87 What Of It
At that moment, the venue of the wedding scene was a mess.
When the time for the ceremony came, the bride suddenly disappeared from the venue of the wedding. Obviously, the wedding could not continue, so they had to announce that the ceremony was temporarily canceled.
After dismissing the guests, Kendrick’s face immediately darkened. He walked to the wedding hall, watching as if nothing had happened. He sat in one of the guest seats. Clad in a white suit, Christopher watched him for a moment before striding over in his long legs.
Solemnly, Kendrick asked, “Can you explain the situation, Christopher?”
Christopher sat in a chair lazily, lowering his eyes and turning his phone with his fingers. Upon hearing. Kendrick’s words, he raised his head and looked at him. His thin lips pursed as he shrugged, “What is there to explain? Didn’t you see everything?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kendrick slapped Christopher in front of everyone.
Seeing that he was about to do it again, Joyce hurried forward and grabbed his arm. “What are you doing? It’s not Christopher’s fault. Why are you taking it out on him?”
“Whose fault is it if not his?” Kendrick glared at his wife coldly.
Kendrick had always been in an advantageous position. He had long been used to giving orders. Being a results-oriented man, he did not care about the process.
In his opinion, since Christopher was the one who was getting married, even if the sudden disappearance of Annabelle was the cause of the current predicament, it was also due to Christopher’s
improper handling.
Layla walked over with her husband Jared. She glanced at Christopher and couldn’t help saying. “Joyce is right. It’s not Christopher’s fault! The most important thing now is to find Annabelle.” She paused before continuing, “Annabelle isn’t an irresponsible person. I wonder if something unexpected happened for her to suddenly disappear.”
“Have you found Annabelle?” Winnie and Zachary also came over from the lounge.
When they learned that Annabelle was missing. Winnie suffered a huge shock and almost fainted. Zachary had accompanied Winnie to the lounge to rest. After feeling better, they returned to the wedding banquet.
Layla hurriedly stepped forward to help the old lady, then looked at Christopher and asked, “Christopher, do you know where Annabelle went?”
At that moment, a young woman with short, ear-length hair rushed over angrily. While everyone was still in a daze, she lifted her hand and slapped Christopher across the face.
Seeing her son being slapped indiscriminately, Winnie glared at the girl. “Who are you? How can you hit others casually?”
Christopher looked up and smiled coldly. “Yvette, where is Annabelle?”
Yvette sneered, “How dare you ask me about Annabelle? Christopher, you’re such a jerk. Do you know how long she’s been looking forward to marrying you? And yet, what have you done?”
Listening to Yvette’s words, Christopher didn’t say a word. He just looked at Yvette coldly.
The other members of the Solace family felt that something was wrong. Winnie, especially, frowned and asked, “What do you mean? What did my son do? Tell me clearly!” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Yvette glanced at Winnie and said sarcastically, “What? Didn’t your precious son tell you? He knocked someone up and wants to marry Annabelle so she’d become a stepmother for free!”
After listening to Yvette’s words, the members of the Solace family looked at Christopher again.
“Christopher, is what she said true?” Kendrick’s face was extremely pale. He forced himself to suppress his temper. Even if his voice was still calm, it was merely the calm before the storm.
Christopher lowered his eyes expressionlessly and ignored Kendrick’s words.
Frantic, Winnie urged, “Chris, say something! Is it true?”
After a long moment, Christopher looked up at the people who were staring at him and smiled casually. “So what?”
