Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 606

Chapter 606 Desperate To Get Married

Charlize was unaware of what happened in the audience. When she finished her task and stepped down from the stage, Juliette and the groom had already exchanged rings. At the same time, all the dishes were perfectly served on each table.

Initially, Charlize did not feel hungry. She felt a little embarrassed to stand so upfront with the spotlight overhead. All she wanted was to get down from the stage as soon as possible.

Now that she was off the stage, she suddenly felt hungry upon seeing the table full of dishes.

At her table were seated the bridesmaids and their boyfriends. Besides Charlize and Spencer, there were also Juliette’s best friend and her cousin’s boyfriend.

There was no denying that Juliette was very generous with her wedding banquet. The table was filled with many dishes, including luxurious dishes such as lobster, Alaskan king crab, caviar, etc.

As soon as Charlize took her seat, Spencer poured her a glass of juice. “Does your foot hurt?” he asked in a low voice, causing his breath to brush against her ear.

Charlize’s hand holding the glass tightened slightly, and she replied in a shy voice, “No.”

With the band-aid stuck on and nothing rubbing against her heel, it certainly did not hurt.

“Want some shrimps?”

“Yes, please.”

Spencer filled her bowl with soup. Then, he took some shrimp and placed them on her plate without forgetting to drizzle some of the cocktail sauce.

Throughout her entire meal, Charlize barely had to reach out to get her food. She could simply focus on eating. Whenever she wanted anything, with merely a glance, the man next to her would deftly serve it onto her plate.

In just a few minutes, the others at the table were amazed by them.

Juliette’s best friend playfully nudged her boyfriend with her elbow and said, “Look at how considerate Ms. Johnson’s boyfriend is!”

Next to them, Juliette’s cousin was teasing her partner too. “You didn’t even ask me if I wanted some lobster, let alone serve me food. Our love has changed.”

Though they were envious, they had been in their relationships for quite some time. While they admired Spencer’s thoughtfulness, they could not trade their boyfriends for someone like him, especially after being together for three years or more.

What they said was all in jest and just for fun. However, Charlize blushed while nibbling the Alaskan king crab leg Spencer placed on her plate. She felt like her face was even hotter than the bowl of soup she had just consumed.

Sitting next to her, Spencer seemed unfazed. When he saw her empty bowl, he casually asked, “More soup?”

Charlize nodded and replied, “Yes, please.”

This soup is so delicious!

Molly and Shanny, both single ladies, watched in envy while they silently ate on the side since they did not have boyfriends.

Luckily, it did not last for long. After the bride and groom finished their speeches, the bridesmaids were called to the stage for the bridal bouquet toss.

Within about ten minutes, everyone else hurriedly wiped their mouths and touched up with lipstick before rushing to the stage. None had eaten enough except for Charlize since Spencer did not stop getting her food.

The stage lighting was blinding. When Charlize stepped onto the stage, she could not help squinting her eyes.

The emcee tried to liven things up by asking about the bridesmaids’ romance status.

Most were not single, yet none of them had impending weddings.

The emcee jested, “It’s okay. Maybe the bride could target these two here. Whether they can find their soulmates or not, it’s all on you!”

Molly, who was standing next to the emcee, was not shy at all. She grabbed the microphone and said, “Juliette, toss the bouquet to Charlize! She and Spencer were so affectionate earlier and affected our appetites for all the delicacies on the table!”

Her voice boomed through the microphone, and everyone in the banquet hall heard it. Some laughed, and some applauded.

Shanny pushed Charlize forward, leaving her standing there, blushing with embarrassment.

Juliette glanced at Charlize and jokingly said, “Then I won’t disappoint the crowd!”

She turned around, lifted the bouquet high, and threw it with force.
