Chapter 3278 The Wedding Would Still Be Perfect
Luca did not show them any courtesy.
She knew reasoning with them here might cause a scene, but she also knew Anna and Jean would not agree to talk it out elsewhere.
"You!" Anna was furious. "What business is it of yours if I attend my daughter's wedding?"
A few guests passing by could not help but watch them.
Luca frowned, sensing that they might have already blown through the money Percy had given them.
She turned to look at the attendant.
"Security is on their way."
Anna, enraged, raised her hand to hit Luca.
However, before she could, Luke caught her wrist. "Don't you dare!"
Anna was terrified when she saw it was Luke.
She remembered the last time she tried to harm Blanca after things did not work out between her and Jean. Luke's intervention had made her abandon that plan.
"Let go! If you lay a hand on my mom, I'll call the police!" Jean's anger flared the moment he laid eyes on Luke. However, he knew he was no match for Luke, so his bravado was all talk.
Luke shoved Anna's hand away.
"What's going on here? How are people like this getting inside? Luke glared at the attendant.
The attendant looked helpless. Anna and Jean were dressed like they belonged, so the guards at the entrance must have assumed they were invited.
Who would have guessed they came to cause trouble and did not hold an invitation?
It was not the attendant's fault, but he was unlucky enough to get blamed.
"Sorry, sir. We'll take care of it right away," replied another attendant as the security guards arrived.
Anna tried to assert herself, "I'm the bride's mother! You have no right to keep me out!"
"Don't let them in," instructed Luke.
"Yes, sirl" The security guards immediately escorted Anna and Jean away.
As she was dragged off, Anna started wailing, "How dare you treat me like this? This is outrageous! I'll call the police! Someone help me!"
Luca heaved a sigh. "Thank goodness they didn't cause a scene inside."
"It's embarrassing enough that they're doing it out here," commented Luke.
Luca nodded in agreement, watching them being taken away. She then said quietly, "Let's
wait until after the wedding to tell Nina."
Today was supposed to be Nina's happy day. She did not need these irrelevant people ruining her mood.
"Agreed. I'll let Percy know," said Luke.
Nina might not need to know, but Percy definitely did.
Luca nodded again and added, "We'll need to keep an eye on the reception too. We can't let thern ruin Nina's wedding."
"Don't worry, just make sure to get Tommy over there quickly." Luke reminded her. The ring bearer had not taken his place yet.
"Oh, right! I got so worked up by those shameless people that I almost forgot about it." Luca gave her head a light tap and hurriedly led Tommy inside.
As they walked, Tommy, who was keeping pace with Luca, asked curiously, "Ms. Luca, why is Ms. Nina's mom causing such a fuss?"
"Well..." Luca was trying to figure out how to explain when Tommy continued, "Ms. Nina is her child too, but all they care about is money. Poor Ms. Nina."
Even though the adults had not explained everything. Tommy was not completely in the dark. He understood the situation between Nina, Anna, and Jean.
Luca wanted to stroke his head but hesitated for a moment. She did not want to mess up his handsome hairstyle. Instead, she smiled and said, "If they don't care for Ms. Nina, then we'll take care of her, okay?"
Tommy nodded earnestly.
"I knew you were a good boy. Now, go be the best flower boy for Ms. Nina." After a moment, she added, "But remember, the first thing we have to do to protect her is keep this a secret. Don't let her know what just happened. We want her to enjoy every moment of the wedding."
Tommy promised, "Cot it! Don't worry! I won't tell anyone!"
Luca brought Tommy over to where Nina was.
By now, Nina had already changed into her wedding dress. When she saw Luca and Tommy, she asked, "Why is my little ring bearer just getting here now?
"We were moving a bit slowly, but here he is, ready to go!" replied Luca.
Tommy quickly positioned himself beside the flower girl. The sight of the two adorable children standing together was enough to melt anyone's heart.
As Nina rose to her feet, the thought of having to walk down the aisle in front of everyone made her nervous again. She turned to ask Luca, "Luca, how do I look?"
"You look stunning. Absolutely perfect!" Luca could tell she was anxious and tried to calm her. "You've already rehearsed, so you'll be fine. Don't worry. Everyone out there is a friend or family member here to celebrate with you, not judge your walk down the aisle."
The makeup artist smiled and agreed, "Ms. Craw is right. Just walk like you did during the rehearsal, and you'll be fine."
"Has Old Master Crawford arrived?" Nina asked again.
Since her father could not make it and had made it clear he would not be coming, she needed an elder to walk her down the aisle.
Nina had asked Old Master Crawford, and he happily agreed.
He even mentioned that after the wedding, she would be part of the Crawford family, so it was only fitting for him to step in and support her on this special day.
"He should be here by now. Let me call Mr. Griffin and check," suggested Luca, knowing that
Old Master Crawford was supposed to be brought over by Mr. Griffin.
Just as she was about to make the call, there was a knock on the door.
Luca went to open it.
Then, she saw Old Master Crawford and Mr. Griffin, She smiled and said, "You're here! I was
just about to call and ask where you were."
Old Master Crawford walked into the bridal suite with a cheerful grin. "I just got here. I thought I'd come by and check on our beautiful bride."
Tommy's face lit up when he saw his great-grandfather, and he eagerly ran up to him, "Great Grandpa!"
"Good boy!" Old Master Crawford pinched Tommy's chubby little cheeks. His eyes were full of affection. Then, he turned to Nina. He nodded in approval and gave her a thumbs-up. "You look gorgeous!"
"Oh, Grandpa, stop flattering me! You're making me blush." Nina gently touched her face, which had turned slightly warm.
"Alright, everyone's here now. You guys stay put for a bit. I need to head down," said Luca.
Nina nodded, briefly considering asking if there had been any issues at the entrance but decided against it.
She did not want her wedding day to be spoiled by those who had hurt her.
After Luca left the bridal suite, she quickly made her way to the wedding venue.
The weather was sunny, but the sun was not too harsh, so the guests sitting outside were not feeling too hot.
Luca found Luke's seat and sat down next to him. They were seated in the front row.
"What took you so long?" asked Luke.
"The bride was a bit nervous, so I stayed to calm her down. Oh, and Grandpa's here too," answered Luca.
"Yeah. I just greeted him. The old man's looking pretty sharp today," said Luke. "Grandpa genuinely cares about Nina," added Luca. Even though her own family did not show up, with them and Old Master Crawford, the wedding would still be perfect.
