The reaction of those who usually had a good relationship with Marcus was calm, but those who had hidden grudges against him couldn't help but take pleasure in his misfortune.
In the past, the Wallace family had shown off many times with this excellent marriage proposal. Who would have thought it would turn out to be a scam?
"So, it's really a twisted fate," a well-dressed woman in the crowd remarked.
Marcus's face darkened slightly, but he didn't say much, given the occasion.
The woman continued, "I think flies don't land on seamless eggs. If it weren't for... it probably wouldn't have been so easy to fool her."
"Today is a joyous occasion in my family. If you sincerely came to celebrate, I'd naturally welcome you. But if you don't know how to speak properly, I'll have to ask you to leave," Marcus finally couldn't tolerate it any longer and said with a furrowed brow.
The woman was taken aback, not expecting Marcus, who was usually quite amiable, to have such a firm side.
She opened her mouth but ultimately didn't say anything more.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Helin and her fiancé gracefully descended the stairs, leaving Charlotte and Joe slightly stunned.
What they didn't expect was that Helin's fiancé turned out to be Eleanor.
Eleanor's smile froze when he saw Charlotte and Joe, never expecting to encounter these two figures here.
Sensing the awkwardness of those around him, Helin looked at him in confusion and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Eleanor shook his head and replied, "Nothing."
Helin withdrew her gaze, and a hint of disdain flickered in her eyes as she lowered them.
From the very beginning, she had no interest in Eleanor.
Having grown up in the same social circle, she had heard rumors about Eleanor. He was known for his playboy lifestyle, lacked responsibility, and was fortunate enough to be the only son of the Dryden family, which earned him their favor.
