On this sacred occasion, with so many distinguished guests present, 1 ila had humiliated him very
Panic washed over him.
The scene before them held everyone’s attention as something so unimaginable unfolded in front of them.
Has Lucius, who was charming and flirtatious, fallen into such a state today!
Yet Lila remained unmoved. Her stance was resolute, a faint smile playing on her lips.
She turned to those women around her, her voice gentle, her demeanor poised.
“Girls, I appreciate your effort. I’ll make sure that you all get home safely
The women in wedding dresses finally halted their display and hurriedly left the banquet hall.
The once lively atmosphere fell into a deathly silence.
Lila stepped forward, deliberately bypassing Lucius.
She addressed the guests with a smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, let’s consider this a performance. I understand why you are all here, but I will not be remarrying with Lucius.”
Lucius’s eyes were bloodshot, his fists clenched tightly as he stared at her. He dared not voice his opinion.
“During our marriage, my relationship with him fell apart. I’m self–aware enough to know I cannot bear the weight as the lady of the house, nor will I ever wish for that again.”
With resolute determination, she severed all ties with Lucius in the most ruthless way.
The disgusting situation had become unbearable. If Lucius continued to cling to her, he would be the one
to blame.
No man would stubbornly pursue her in such circumstances.
“Darling!” Lucius hissed softly, his voice tinged with fear.
He was more terrified now than he had been during their divorce.
Just a few words from her had hollowed him out, draining him of all resolve.
Lila paused briefly, then smiled and looked back at him.
“You are free now, Lucius.”

She had fulfilled his desire.
Lila stepped back. Lucius immediately grasped her hand.

At this point, was he still expecting the wedding to proceed normally?
Even Seraphina, watching from the sidelines, couldn’t help but let out a scoff.
In that moment, Seraphina’s reaction stood out among the crowd.
* Finished
Even more noticeable was the look of worry and gloom on Orion’s face beside her, a shadow of discontent that rivaled Lucius on stage.
He had brought Seraphina here to prepare for reconciliation, not to witness this failed farce!
What a fool Lucius was!
Lila shook off Lucius’s grasp, her tone icy and distant.
“While we’re at it, I’d like to announce something.”
Everyone turned to look at her.
Lila announced, “I am going to establish a law firm specializing in divorce cases involving infidelity. I will do everything in my power to ensure that innocent victims receive the maximum protection.
“In my own failed marriage, I have faced humiliation, neglect, and outright contempt. I can no longer tolerate this. Ladies, the only thing that can protect us is our own interests. So, if you ever need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.”
As her words echoed through the hall, a profound silence enveloped the room; even the music had ceased.
Lucius’s face paled as he stared at her, shock etched across his face as if he no longer recognized the woman before him.
Suddenly, a lone round of applause broke through the silence.
Everyone turned to see.
Seraphina, unfazed and calm, began to clap.
