Ned rubbed his sour nose and said with a smile, "Well, I will catch up with you soon."
Daniel then asked, "I've sent a chauffeur to pick you up. He didn't ask about anything around the way, did he?"
Ned said, "No, the driver left after he sent me to the hotel. We didn't talk much along the way."
Daniel, "Alright."
The driver who went to pick Ned from the airport was temporarily transferred from The Ramsay Family by Daniel. Although he was simple and honest, he could not overlook the possibility of the driver inquiring about the history of The Philips Family. Now that he had heard Ned's words, he was relieved.
At this time, Ned looked into the house with excitement. "Daniel, where is your wife?"
Daniel laughed and said, "Brittany is getting prepared backstage. You'll be able to see her later when you follow me into the hall."
"I'll go with you?" Ned was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't he be waiting at his seat with the rest of the audience? That was how it was shown on the
television.
Daniel's smile grew wider. "Ned, I want you to be my groomsman and witness my happiness. Do you agree?"
Ned was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly nodded his head. "Sure, I'm glad to be your groomsman!"
Daniel wrapped his arm around Ned's shoulder as he introduces him to the stylist in the room. "This is my younger brother, Ned. He came all the way from our hometown to attend my wedding. Can you help to dress him up?"
"No problem!" The stylist readily called for Ned to sit in front of the mirror. He turned around and found a suit that was smaller than Daniel's suit from the clothes rack behind him. He then returned and gestured at Ned's body. "This suit seems to be suitable for you. Do you want to try it out? The fitting room is on your left."
Ned carefully took the suit. With a somewhat bashful "hmm", he then said politely to Daniel, "Brother, I'm going to try on the clothes."
"Sure," Daniel replied as he watched Ned walk into the fitting room. Only then did he withdrew his gaze of concern.
The stylist said with a smile, "Well, I was wondering why did you ask me to bring you a smaller suit. It
turns out that you prepared it for your brother."
Daniel smiled but said nothing. Anyone could tell that he was in a very good mood.
If only... his parents had been able to witness his wedding as well.
With Ned's arrival, Daniel could not help but had this idea welling up in his mind. He felt as if he had been stabbed by a sharp knife and his eyebrows shrink as he was filled with pain. The joy faded with the arrival of the pain.
Today was not a happy day for Daniel at all, it was the third step of his revenge!
He had already succeeded in ditching Amelia and then turning to Brittany in order to intensify the internal conflicts between the two sisters. He had successfully caused their father to be bedridden through an injection. His first two steps was a success, by the time he finished the third step, the entire The Ramsay Family would have collapsed!
At some point in time, Daniel started cracking his fist. It was only after the stylist reminded, "Ned is out", that Daniel quickly let go of his fist and looked at Ned casually.
"Brother." Ned was a little embarrassed by Daniel's intense observation. He then said, "I don't seem to fit well in this kind of clothing."
Ned who was born in poverty was used to wearing school uniforms and sportswear. He would have never thought that he would wear a suit one day.
