Her silky long hair that hangs on either side of her cheeks was skillfully pinned up at the back of her head by Antonio Bailey, leaving the rest of the hair naturally trailing down her back. She looked pure and sweet.

After Antonio’s careful styling, Emily Walker instantly transformed into a delicate and charming young woman.

“Here, stuff this in!” Because Emily’s chest was on the smaller side, the strapless dress she was wearing didn’t flatter her figure as much as it could. Antonio had no choice but to stuff two chest pads inside, making the ensemble look perfect.

Emily stood still, feeling uncomfortable no matter how she adjusted to the sudden addition to her chest.

“Sister Carter, is it too tight…?” She furrowed her brow; the dress was wrapped so tightly around her by Antonio!

Antonio, however, looked completely nonchalant. While fussing with the dress, she said, “This isn’t tight. You don’t know how much other women squeeze themselves just to show off their cleavage!”

After saying this, Antonio tightened the back of Emily’s dress even more, causing her to wince in pain.

“All right, we’re done!”

After they were both finished dressing, the two walked out of the relaxation room and headed towards the banquet hall. However, as they left the room, they collided with a man head on.

Wearing high heels, Emily nearly stumbled and fell after being bumped into by the man. Antonio quickly grabbed her, asking, “Are you all right?”

Emily shook her head and looked at the man who had fallen to the ground after the collision.

“Rylee…Rylee, why are you marrying someone else, when I cherish you so much…

The man appeared to be in his forties, seemingly drunk, lying on the ground and mumbling to himself.

“Let’s go, don’t bother with him.” Antonio had little patience for inebriated men, and without lingering, quickly pulled Emily into the wedding banquet hall.

The wedding celebration began, filling the banquet hall with laughter and chatter.

Emily stood quietly to the side, feeling somewhat uneasy in this setting.

The bride was Antonio’s classmate, and naturally, many other classmates attended the event. Soon Antonio was whisked away by others, leaving Emily alone.

There was a sudden commotion in the hall, and Emily, holding her wine glass, followed everyone’s line of sight.

At this moment, she saw the grand entrance being pushed open by two security guards, with a man in a black suit entering from outside.

His handsome face, carved like jade, emanated an unwelcoming frostiness. His entire being exuded an unstoppable radiance. Even though the newlyweds were the stars of the show, the instant the man entered, it seemed as if he stole everyone’s attention.

Baron Stuart entered the wedding banquet hall with an icy expression, paying no attention to Emily in the crowd.

However, Emily noticed him, her expression freezing in disbelief.

Why was he here?

Looking around, Emily suddenly felt an urge to flee.

She once said that she would avoid places where he was present.

Today, there was no way she could take a detour, but she could try avoiding him, right?

As Baron Stuart entered the grand hall, he suddenly paused, furrowing his brow before looking around.

Due to his tall and upright stature, even in a wedding banquet hall filled with guests, he could still see everything with perfect clarity.

However, at this time, Emily had already swiftly entered a corridor at the back of the banquet hall, unnoticed.

Walking down the hallway, she suddenly realized how small the world was. The man she had been trying so desperately to avoid seemed to appear wherever she was, at every moment.
