Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 816

"It's okay. I'm not bothered by her. Actually, I should have guessed she wouldn't give up so easily. I just never thought she'd be shameless enough to disrupt our wedding party. She definitely knows how to stir up trouble." Belinda gave Duke a soft, comforting smile. If attempting to stop the wedding had been Rachel's purpose, she would undoubtedly be disappointed. Belinda would not let that happen. Their wedding ceremony would continue till the last minute. There was nothing Rachel could do anymore.

A cocktail buffet was held after the wedding ceremony at Leng House. The dishes were prepared and provided by the FX International Hotel. Both the service and food were of excellent standards for guests to enjoy.

"Hello, Daisy. We meet again." Zemo appeared out of nowhere in front of Daisy, holding a glass of wine. In fact, he had arrived at the party quite early but hadn't had the chance to start a conversation with Daisy as she seemed quite busy that day.

"Oh, Zemo. It's you! Nice to see you! How did you get here?" Daisy was quite surprised to see Zemo at the party. She wondered who had invited him.

"Do you want to know the truth or the lie?" Taking a sip of the red wine, Zemo gave her a wry look.

"What if I choose both?" Daisy smiled softly, waiting for his response. She realized he was trying to be mischievous.

"The truth is that I came here because I knew you would be here too. The lie? Belinda invited me to her wedding, so I'm here to congratulate her on her nuptials," Zemo said jokingly like a ruffian. Most people would find it hard to tell whether or not he was telling the truth.

"Oh, I see. But since when have you and Belinda been so close to each other? I didn't know about that." If her memory served right, Zemo and Belinda did not know each other. They had not even greeted each other last time at the bar.

"We made a business alliance recently. That's how I got to know her." Zemo gave her a half smile. His reason sounded to be quite untrue. However, Daisy trusted him because she knew the kind of person he was. It was just his style.

"Oh! Sure. I almost forgot that you are from a rich family." Daisy replied, taking a jibe at him. She emphasized on the words 'rich family', teasing him on purpose.

"I knew you would make fun of me. But don't you forget it, you are a wife of a businessman. We are of the same world." It was understandable that he didn't know who Edward Mu was when he had first arrived in the city. But now, it would be foolish for him to not know him. Edward pretty much led the trade in the city. He had been running his family business from S City for a while now.

"I am still who I used to be. But you've clearly adapted well." Daisy gave him a sidelong glance. They had talked to each other only twice recently. But she could still feel the casual familiarity she always felt with him whenever they were together back at the military academy.
