Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 551

The wedding ceremony could be considered complete at this point, leaving the guests to enjoy the fine wine and delicious food. Almost everyone who knew Cherise was genuinely happy for her.

“Now that Cherise has found her happiness, we old folks can finally be at ease. Even Ms. Garcia, watching from above, must be pleased.” Everyone at Marlon’s table shared the same sentiment.

Dennis and Bella felt the same way. Watching Morris lead Cherise away, they were moved to tears. “Ms. Leach is truly blessed. Now we can finally stop worrying.”

The students from the Traditional Medicine Department were equally emotional. “Our Cherise looks absolutely stunning. Even if she just stood there silently, I could watch her all day. I’m so jealous of Mr. Chivers for having such a beautiful bride.”

Hank heard these words and smiled as he glanced in Cherise’s direction. In a voice only he could hear, he murmured, “I wish you happiness.”

Many envied Cherise for having this wedding and for marrying Morris, especially the younger women. However, most of the guests believed she deserved such happiness.

At the Walton family’s table, Cora remarked, “Cherise is really something else, isn’t she? Seems like she knows a lot of people. She is so lucky to have Morris as her husband.”

Hearing her mother say this, Stella quickly interjected, “Mom, this wedding isn’t like others. Everyone’s pretty quiet, so don’t speak too loudly and let others hear you.”

“I wasn’t speaking that loudly, was I? Right?” Cora glanced around before continuing, “Honestly, she really is lucky to have married Morris. But why do I keep hearing people at the nearby tables praising Morris for marrying such an extraordinary woman?”

“After all, she’s not–never mind. I’d better not say anything unnecessary,” Cora added, countering Stella’s remark.

Lydia, sitting nearby, let out a carefree chuckle. Taking a small sip of her drink, she spoke nonchalantly, “The bride truly is remarkable, and the two of them are indeed a good match. No need for jealousy. Women–we understand.”

With that, Lydia continued sipping her drink, occasionally glancing in Truman and Jean’s direction.

The other three members of the Walton family, hearing Lydia’s words, chose to remain silent. They all had the same thought–Lydia had changed ever since that incident.

Jagger spoke up at the right moment. “Lydia’s right. If only for Dorian’s sake, no one should underestimate Cherise. After all, back in the day, Dorian’s word was law.”

At Arthur’s table, Carson sat in the middle, with Arthur and Tristan on either side. The atmosphere appeared calm on the surface, but undercurrents of tension ran deep.

Beat today is my beloved disciple’s wedding day. Let’s not discuss this now. Come, the three of us should have a drink together
