SWNOVELS Chapter 25
Chapter 25 He Didn't Even Recognize the Person He Had to Protect? "Are we still going in?" Nore asked, looking at Lyra. He was afraid that Lyra would not be able to hold on. "Of course. I still have to watch a good show." Lyra took the lead and walked towards the hotel entrance. Nore followed after them. They had invitations in their hands, and they were unimpeded. Alma was being dressed up in the hotel dressing room, and a few bridesmaids followed behind her. They were all smiling and saying some compliments. Alma became even prouder. After today, she only needed to say one word, and the whole Frouver would tremble! At this time, Lachlan walked in with an ugly expression. "Are you ready?" "Almost done." Alma smiled shyly. She was overwhelmed by joy. She did not notice Lachlan's strange behavior. She smiled sweetly and held his hand as they walked out. On the red carpet, the door of the auditorium slowly opened. Alma was wearing a white veil and a high-end custom-made wedding dress. She was shining and appeared at one end of the red carpet. At the other end stood Hank in a suit and tie. Alma looked at the man in front of her through the wedding dress and felt her heart heat up. That man finally belonged to her. Under everyone's gaze, the wedding music began to echo. Alma held Lachlan's hand and walked towards Hank. "Now, the bride's father can hand the bride over to the groom." As the emcee finished speaking, Alma's hand was handed over to Hank. Both of them wore white gloves and continued the wedding according to the procedure. Alma could not feel the warmth of the other person's hand, so she lowered her eyes to hide her shyness. "Before the wedding ceremony officially begins, I would like to share the tokens of the two newcomers with everyone here. This is the witness of their love." The ritual girl at the side held a tray in her hand and showed the two and a half pieces of pendant on it to everyone present.
Below the stage, Lyra raised her eyebrows. It seemed the good show really began! "Mr. Host, please stop!" The elegant voice penetrated the softness of the background music, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. On the stage, Hank was the first to recognize her voice. He turned his head, a warning look in his eyes. Lyra blinked, completely unconcerned. Under the gaze of all the guests, she stood up happily and walked towards the couple on the red carpet The moment Alma saw Lyra, her back froze. Lyra! When did she come out? No, how could she be qualified to enter her wedding? "Hank, she must be here to cause trouble. Quickly chase her out." Alma was anxious. Hank's eyes darkened. Everyone in Frouver knew about his relationship with Lyra. The Lyra in his memory would not do such a ridiculous thing. He frowned and looked at Lyra. Step by step, he walked to the center of the auditorium. "Hank." Alma was so anxious that she jumped up and down. Why was he silent? Could it be that he still had feelings for Lyra? Lyra had a smile on her face as she endured the gazes of the spectators. She slowly said, "It's Mr. Barnwell and Miss Kensley's wedding day. As an experienced person, I want to personally give my blessings. Is that okay?" Hank stared at her coldly. "Miss Jones, this is bad. Let's talk privately after the ceremony is over," Alma suggested. She kept smiling and winked at the security guards below the stage. Lyra curled her lips. Before the security guards came over, Lyra suddenly stepped forward and took the pendant from the emcee. "Eh? You..." The emcee had yet to react. Lyra shook the pendant. "There are some things that Miss Kensley might be embarrassed about. Let me tell you. This pendant has a very romantic origin. It was accidentally left behind when Miss Kensley saved Mr. Barnwell."Alma's smile became even stiffer, and her hand holding the wedding dress tightened. Lyra clearly saw her panic, and thus she smiled wider, "Do you need me to say it? Or you better say it yourself?"
"Lyra, what are you doing? Give it back to me!" Alma panicked and reached out. Lyra's elbow moved to avoid her touch, causing Alma to miss. But then, she felt a force on her wrist, and she couldn't move at all. Alma gritted her teeth in anger and pointed at Lyra. "Hank, this woman deliberately came to ruin our wedding. Do you still think it okay?" The man's hands under his sleeves slowly tightened. His imposing aura spread out. Lyra clearly understood that this was the precursor to his anger. "Mr. Barnwell, don't be like this. This is a fake." Lyra blinked and smiled. "A fake?" There was a noisy discussion below the stage. It was just a pendant, it made little difference whether it was real or fake! "Lyra, don't test my tolerance." Hank pulled her hand very hard, completely disregarding whether she was in pain or not. Lyra turned her head, ignoring his warning. "What a coincidence, there is a limit to my tolerance as well. By the way, I want to remind you that there are so many reporters taking pictures and videos. You better be a gentleman, lest you embarrass yourself tomorrow when you see the news." The beautiful face that was close at hand was mixed with a little strangeness. Hank was in a trance for a moment, and the strength o his hand involuntarily loosened. Lyra took the opportunity to directly take a glass of red wine. In front of Alma and Hank, she gently threw the pendant in. She rocked the glass a few times, and then her hand loosened. Pa. The red wine glass shattered on the ground and spilled all over Alma's noble wedding dress. "Ahhhh!" Alma was so angry that she screamed. If the bridesmaid had not pulled her, she would have pulled out Lyra's hair on the spot. "Are you crazy? Do you know how much this wedding dress is worth?" "Is it valuable? That's a pity. Because you will soon be valueless." Lyra squatted down and picked up the pendant from the ground. The gray substance on the pendant was soaked and revealed the original red color.
But strangely, the red pendant was clearly engraved with the word "Lyra”! The guests below the stage all widened their eyes. This was better than magic. The bride and groom's love token was engraved with the name of the ex-wife? How could... Alma was also shocked and was speechless for a long time. Lyra looked at them simperingly. "Mr. Barnwell, you didn't expect that this pendant is mine. You actually treat a liar as your savior." "No, no, Hank, it's not like what she said!" In an instant, Alma turned pale.
