Chapter 337: 316, His woman, is shy
Indeed, all geniuses have high IQs but low EQs!
Jaysen Smith, as scholarly as he is, couldn’t grasp what everyone else understood. It’s such a disaster!
Oh well, it’s not just her problem if she ends up being forced into marriage!
She doesn’t care, if she really is forced to marry, then she’d just sleep with him, have a child of her own, and who cares about the future?
Marriage, such an unpredictable affair!
As the saying goes: Some people unintentionally spend their lives together, while some, despite their efforts, end up with nothing.
She and Theo Scott were the latter. She had exhausted herself trying to please him, and yet he married someone else. So from now on, she would stop trying. One stint was tiring enough, and let others go through the same rigmarole next time!
"Pfft pfft pfft!"
What was she thinking about? How did she start thinking about marrying Jaysen Smith?
She must be so desperate for a man that she thinks of getting married and sleeping with them in every situation!
"Yikes, Jaysen, Madeline, is that you?"
A surprised voice from the chaotic crowd, it was Ivy. Straight away, Madeline saw Ivy pushing through the crowd towards them from the space Jaysen left for her to breathe and started shouting, "It really is you? Holy shit, you guys are so passionate!"
"Just now Michael and I were watching wedding photos, and we heard people saying that there’s a handsome guy and a beautiful woman making out here. I was thinking besides us, who else could it be!"
Ivy then gave a sideways smile to Jaysen, "After some thought the only possibility was you guys. Indeed it’s you! Madeline, you’ve got courage. With that, you’re definitely gonna get hitched!"
Madeline almost wanted to kneel down to her. She was still fantasizing that at least her face wasn’t being photographed, but now that Ivy had shouted her name out loud, whether her face was caught on camera was irrelevant!
"Ahem ahem!" Jaysen coughed twice lightly and gave Ivy a glance. His expression was simple enough - his woman was feeling shy!
Ivy understood instantly.
"Alright, alright, the wedding’s about to start, let’s break it up!"
Ivy turned back and glanced at the surrounding crowd. Seeing that they didn’t disperse right away and were eagerly trying to catch a glimpse of Madeline’s face buried in Jaysen’s chest, she pointed towards a lawn at the hotel’s doorway, "Apparently, the bride and groom are giving out money gifts over there. A lot of people are grabbing them!"
And just like that, the room was deserted in less than a second!
"Dear wife, your sharp reflexes make me, a man, feel quite useless. What to do?"
Michael Gordon had his hand in his trouser pocket, approached her with a roguish grin, and then put one arm around Ivy’s waist. Ivy comfortably fell into his arms without hesitation, "Just saying, people who aren’t legally married dare to flaunt their love like this. If we, who have a marriage certificate, don’t show off, people will think we’re having marital troubles!"
In the blink of an eye, his lips touched hers, sealing a long French kiss. Ivy’s face had turned as red as a tomato, while Michael’s expression was unconcerned as always, the mischievous smile on his lips growing brighter.
"Seems like nobody was sneakily taking photos of us. That’s a bit of a pity. I’ve been wanting to get in the headlines with my wife!"
Ivy: "..."
Not to mention he had a history of making headlines. He had been on the front page with so many women, but never her. Thinking about this, a hint of sourness rose in Ivy’s heart.
Jaysen looked down at the woman in his arms, then looked up at them, and broke the silence: "Are you two here to show off not being photographed by others? Or are you here to mock us?"
The couple was clearly here to taunt him, mentioning ’illegal’ and ’marriage certificates’ repeatedly.
Michael looked at them dismissively with a ’I knew you two won’t make it’ expression, and casually responded, "Clearly, we’re here to ridicule you!"
He couldn’t understand it. A grown man playing tsundere. If you like someone, just say it, who would know otherwise!
"Alright, you better stop talking. Look at Madeline, her face is so embarrassed by your words that it can’t even be seen!" Ivy gestured at him, indicating that he should know when to quit, "Speaking of which, are you going back with us? Or staying here for the wedding banquet?"
"Are you going back?"
Going by Ivy’s words, they’ve been divided into two levels of importance!
"I came to accompany Madeline to the wedding. Now that you’re here, I should go back. The guests all have seats, and if one person brings one extra person it’s freeloading. But someone attending a wedding reception and bringing three extra people is indeed freeloading!"
Ivy originally just came to accompany Madeline. Now that Jaysen was here, there wasn’t much for her to do. Plus, considering what had just happened, it seemed like Madeline’s talk of breaking up and leaving the house this morning had just been a lot of hot air!
Who has ever heard of a broken-up couple passionately kissing in public!
Upon hearing this, Madeline abruptly stepped out from Jaysen’s embrace: "Freeloading my ass! I have deposited 500,000 in gift money. Not to mention four people. Even if I brought forty people, they would still just be there to add to the crowd!"
Jaysen: "..."
Ivy: "..."
Michael glanced at Jaysen meaningfully and casually stirred the pot, "The woman who was passionately kissing you a second ago is now going to support her ex-boyfriend’s face. What do you have to say?"
Supporting face? How would he respond?
"Do I even need to say?" Jaysen’s handsome face seemed calm but his brows furrowed slightly, "Obviously, I’ll topple it all!"
Ivy: "..."
Madeline: "..." Did she ever say she was going to support anything?
What she said was ’even if’, which means hypothetically. She was just using it as a metaphor!
The atmosphere suddenly quieted. Everyone was looking at one another, unsure of how to proceed. All eyes turned to Jaysen, each of their faces asking the same question: How do we topple it? Suggestions, please!
"Mr. and Mrs. Gordon, Mr. Smith, Miss Harrison, the wedding is about to start, Mr. and Mrs. Scott have asked me to invite you to take your seats!"
During the silence, a polite gentleman bowed slightly to them, then addressed each of them in turn very clearly. The implication was pretty clear - please, all four of you should come!
It was clear that the man who had come to invite them was very well-mannered, a completely different tier from the inexperienced bridesmaid Susannah Ruan. It seemed like Theo Scott had arranged someone more experienced to come and greet them.
After all, had had lost face seeing only half of the bridesmaid’s face. He had to compensate somehow!
In matters like this, Michael and Ivy naturally wouldn’t say anything. They were the supporting cast today!
After a moment, Jaysen narrowed his eyes and asked Madeline, "Madeline, are you sure you want to go over there?"
