Chapter 699 - The Calm Before The Storm

But before the emcee speaks, he is summoned by Andrew.

The emcee walked off the stage and bowed in front of him. "Sir, what's wrong?"

"You go and talk to the kitchen, tell them to just prepare food for these three tables."

The host then immediately ran to the back kitchen in response.

Andrew looked into the empty banquet hall in the blink of an eye, only feeling ridiculous and embarrassed.

Mike... this smelly boy... completely ignores the Austin family.

How frustrating!

While he angrily cursed Mike in his heart, the host turned from the back kitchen with a strange expression.

Not knowing whether it was inappropriate to talk about it, he hesitated again and again, and in the end, he walked up to Andrew, bent over his ear and said, "Sir, the meal has been prepared for only three tables from the start."

Andrew was shocked. "Who asked for it?"

The master of ceremonies pursed the corners of his mouth. "The chef said it was the groom's request and they were not allowed to talk more."

Andrew was immediately stunned.

Did Mike already guess it would be like this or...

Andrew looked suspiciously at the backseat sign, so many banquet tables had been set up, and all the cutlery and cards had been displayed on it.

The emcee noticed Andrew's confusion, and then explained, "I purposely asked the restaurant manager just now, and they said that the seat card is the name given by the groom himself."

Andrew then just nodded and waved his hand.

When the emcee returned to the stage to prepare to host, Andrew's suspicious eyes fell on the business cards on the table.

He didn't pay attention earlier, and now that he took a closer look, he didn't even recognize all the names.

This sight raised doubts in his heart.

However, there was no time waiting for anyone, and he couldn't help but investigate carefully. The welcoming team outside the door had been informed that the caravan for the family had arrived.

Four black cars slowly came from the intersection, and the couple's car was covered in white and red flowers.

In the back seat, Mike sat in an elegant white tuxedo, while Leila was wearing a wedding dress.

Her wedding dress looked a little tight. She sat beside Mike, so as not to look embarrassing, she continued to shrink her stomach.

Yesterday, she tried on her wedding dress and only this one fitted, but the curve of her waist is very tight. She didn't want to delay the wedding just because of her dress, so she pushed herself to it.

She didn't care even if her lower abdomen had to sting.

"Are you nervous?" 

At this time, Mike is keenly observing Leila's constant breathing rhythm. He stares to the side, starlight flowing through his eyes.

Leila smiled faintly, revealing her little tiger teeth. "A little..."

Hearing this, Mike took out a bottle of mineral water from the back of the chair, turned it around and handed it over. "Drink this, don't be nervous."

"Thank you, my husband." Leila didn't hesitate to take it. She returned the water bottle after drinking half of it.

In the blink of an eye, they had arrived.

Leila reaches out her hand to open the car door, and gets out of the car smoothing her skirt, but Mike sits steadily in the back seat.

"Mike?"

Mike looked at her through the door, and turned his mouth inwardly. "Come in first, this is part of the process."

Leila stood on the spot and looked at the restaurant's door. Seeing the beautiful arrangement as well as the balloon showing with their names, she blushed and agreed.

"The bride is here!"

The welcoming team greeted Leila excitedly and took her straight to the bride's dressing room on the top floor of the restaurant.

At the same time, after Leila entered the door, a bus slowly stopped in front of the building.

Nearly twenty bodyguards descended, and they quickly entered the main entrance at a glance, scattered around every corner cleverly, watching closely.

Everything happened in an instant.

The friendly staff at the front door narrowed their smiles, and took all the balloons at the fastest speed and put them away.

In less than five minutes, this restaurant showed no joy from any wedding celebrations.

... 

At ten past five, the emcee stood on the podium.

Looking at the banquet hall with only three guest tables below the stage, he was still reading the rundown of the event with enthusiasm.

"Next, we will invite… the bride! Please welcome Miss Leila!"

The emcee then awkwardly looked at the person handling the sound system below the stage, and stretched out his hand for a few moves.

Where's the music?!

The attendant glanced at him, and as he slowly pressed the button on the console, bursts of sadness resounded in every corner of the banquet hall.

Lilia almost spat out a sip of tea!

She followed the host's gaze and saw two acquaintances sitting on the right side of the man.

What did Dina and Rini do here?

After the sad music rang for ten seconds, Rini stood up, and after stopping the music, she said, "Sorry, I played the wrong music."

The emcee was sweating and wanted to die!

This is the marriage of the second young master of the Austin family. Do you want to mourn their happy moment?!

'Do you want me to lose my job??!!'

The music was played again, this time light music at a slow pace.

Seconds later, on the other side of the aisle, Leila appears dragging her wedding dress.

She felt there was a problem with the process today. The emcee and sound technician were really bad too.

When the wedding is over, she will let Mike fire them!

Leila also heard of the commotion, but today is her wedding day, so she can't express too much emotion, she can only endure it.

As she passed through the passage and stood on the T-shaped stage step by step, she looked down and was shocked.

Why did only a few people attend?

She quickly retracted her gaze and covered her eyelids, blocking the anger deep in her eyes.

Mike made it clear that he invited dozens of family members to attend. Now she looked at all the tables but still, no one came?!

Damn those rotten families!

Leila suppressed the anger in her heart, and as she walked onto the ceremonial stage, she looked sheepishly at the Austin family.

From now on, she will be a member of the Austin family!

No matter what happened before, Mike promised her that he would make sure the Austin family accepted her.

It's just that they were all wearing black costumes, which made things seem difficult on purpose.

In an instant, many emotions passed through Leila's heart.

But she didn't show it and stood quietly in front of others.

Nowadays, everyone looks different. Insults, scoffs, and there is absolutely no sense of being happy.

Leila doesn't care at all.

She smiled at the host, and then waved to the audience. "Hello everyone, thank you for coming!" 

Now, who can stop her from being with Mike?

Throughout her lifetime, Leila has never failed to get what she wants!

The emcee looked at Leila, and when he saw that the bride had spoken first, the man handed over the microphone to her. "Miss Leila, is there anything you would like to convey to everyone for your grand wedding today?"
