Chapter 896
The evening wedding banquet took place at the sixth building of the residence. This location was often used by the Filo family for private dinners hosted by the heads of the family.
The building was surrounded by lush gardens filled with a variety of flowers, arranged at different heights. The evening breeze carried the fragrance of roses through the air.
A massive fountain faced the main entrance, designed in the same style as those at palaces. As soon as night fell, the fountain began its show, a dazzling display of music, lights, and water combined.
The sculptures appeared to come to life, transporting guests back to 17th-century Faldoria, offering a glimpse of the grandeur and artistic beauty during Faldoria's peak.
Inside the banquet hall, luxury and art blended seamlessly.
Over 1500 crystal chandeliers of various sizes and styles were strategically placed throughout the venue. The walls and floors were covered in black mirrored tiles, creating an atmosphere of elegance, mystery, and splendor the moment the lights were turned on.
In this setting of black and gold romance, Emelie and William shared their first dance as a married couple, earning a round of applause from everyone present.
Afterward, the event transitioned into a more relaxed, free-form social gathering. Guests were free to sit wherever they liked. They could enjoy the food, invite others to dance, or simply chat. There were no formalities or restrictions.
Emelie took a sip of her cocktail, scanning the room until her eyes met Yennifer's. They exchanged a knowing nod. It was time.
With effortless grace, Yennifer picked up a glass of red wine and walked onto the stage.
She was dressed in a simple yet elegant purple gown that night, without any embellishments. However, she had paired it with an elaborate diamond cape necklace, giving her a very regal appearance.
There was a microphone on the stage. She took hold of it, cleared her throat softly to capture everyone's attention, and then smiled slightly.
She said, "Good evening, dear friends and family. Once again, thank you all for taking time out of your busy
schedules to join us here at the Denning Residence in Faldoria for this wedding. I'd like to raise a glass to all of you.

She lifted her glass high, and the guests below responded by raising their glasses and joining the toast.
With a regal air, Yennifer continued, "If there were any shortcomings in today's arrangements, I ask for your understanding. No matter how well you plan, there are always unexpected situations, so please bear with us." The guests responded with warm smiles.
Yennifer scanned the room, her tone steady as she continued, "But I believe many of you have a question on your mind. Wasn't this wedding supposed to be between my son Cronus and Mandy? How did it end up being between Mandy and Mr. Middleton instead?"
Indeed, Many had been wondering about that since the morning. And while some had subtly tried to inquire from the Filo family members, they hadn't received any clear answers.
She continued, "Not only do all of you have this question, but I'm sure the online community has been buzzing with curiosity as well, even though we haven't had time to check
"So, I'm going to address this publicly tonight, and we've also invited the media to cover it. The news will be broadcast simultaneously."This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
She gestured toward the back of the hall.
It was only then that the guests noticed several cameras discreetly set up, aimed solely at the stage, ensuring the privacy of the attendees. After all, some of them held sensitive positions and couldn't afford to be seen in public. What initially seemed like a simple gesture of thanks from Yennifer was clearly much more than that.
She even had three waitstaffs bring a comfortable sofa onto the stage, where she seated herself gracefully. "This story is a bit long, so feel free to enjoy your food while listening. Just imagine that you're tuning into a radio show.

The guests exchanged curious glances. The turn of events was certainly unexpected, but it piqued everyone's
interest. So, they settled in to hear what she had to say.
She started, "The story begins with my mother..."
