Chapter 280
“Ah, look, isn’t that Old Mr. Quillen?” someone exclaimed.
“What? Old Mr. Quillen is here?” another person chimed in, surprised.
The hotel manager’s reception attracted the attention of many onlookers.
Being a prominent business family, the Oatley family quickly identified
Terence Quillen as the wealthiest and most influential figure in Yeringham’s
business realm.
!
The mere mention of Old Mr. Quillen instantly diverted Sebastian’s attention
from Roselynn’s situation, compelling him to approach hurriedly.
The arrival of Terence himself left everyone in a state of utter astonishment.
“O–Old Mr. Quillen, what brings you here?” Sebastian asked in disbelief. This
was a joyous occasion for them, and Terence had voluntarily graced them
with his presence.
Even Sebastian couldn’t fathom the idea that Terence was honoring the
Oatley family. Is he somehow connected to the bride’s family?
However, Sebastian quickly dismissed such thoughts.
After all, the Lowe family was a commoner family. It seemed implausible for
them to have any ties to the prestigious family of Yeringham.
It simply didn’t add up.
“Haha, why is there such liveliness here? Is the wedding ceremony taking
place here?” Terence, having just arrived, was unaware of the situation. Out
of respect for the Lowe family, he approached the members of the Oatley
family, who were hosting the banquet.
“Ah? No…” Sebastian was at a loss for words. If Terence discovered that the
Oatley family’s bride had stolen the necklace, their reputation would be
ruined.
Jennifer understood her husband’s predicament all too well. She harbored
deep resentment toward Roselynn, wondering why their son had chosen
such an unscrupulous woman to marry.
“What’s the matter? Is it inconvenient for you to speak to an outsider like me?”
Terence felt disrespected by the Oatley family’s apparent disregard for him.
Although the Quillen family had no business ties with the Oatley family,
Terence possessed enough influence to dismantle their enterprises with a
mere word.
“Ah? No, no, no…” Sebastian waved his hands repeatedly, but he didn’t know
how to respond to Terence. How could they expose their family’s dirty
laundry?
However, in a pivotal moment, Claudette emerged from the crowd and
coldly said, “Old Mr. Quillen, they are claiming that Roselynn stole someone
else’s necklace!”
“Oh? You’re the eldest daughter of the Lenoir family!” Terence immediately
recognized Claudette. After all, only the Lenoir family and the Verkade family
held equal standing with the Quillen family in Yeringham.
The Lane family stood a step below these three esteemed families.
As for the Oatley family, they were considered second–rate at best.
“What? Y–You’re the Lenoir family’s eldest daughter?!” Jennifer, who had
carried an air of superiority, suddenly grew uneasy. She knew that Claudette
was part of Roselynn’s bridesmaid team today.
How could Roselynn, a commoner woman, have such a prestigious friend?
It didn’t make sense!
Jessica, who had remained silent and reserved all this time, began to break
out in a cold sweat.
She had just witnessed Roselynn being subjected to bullying and had been
unsure whether Roselynn had any influential connections.
However, she regretted her hesitation now.
She regretted not helping Roselynn earlier.
Nevertheless, it was better late than never to rectify her mistakes.
With that, she swiftly made her way through the crowd, reaching out to help
Roselynn, who had been knocked to the ground. Feigning concern, she asked,
“Roselynn, are you okay?”
Roselynn had been ruthlessly kicked by Isaac, and her lower abdomen was in
excruciating pain. At this moment, she was covered in a cold sweat and still
unable to utter a word.
After noticing that it was Emmanuel’s sister being mistreated, Terence
promptly approached.
!
His bodyguards behind him quickly dispersed the crowd.
“Roselynn, what happened to you? Who did this to you?” Terence’s genuine
concern caught everyone present off guard.
What’s going on? What is the relationship between Old Mr. Quillen and
Roselynn? everyone pondered silently.
Selina, consumed by nerves, quickly retreated and clutched tightly onto
Isaac’s arm.

familiar with Emmanuel’s character and believed that his sister’s character
couldn’t be any worse. Moreover, as the bride, how could she find the time to
steal someone else’s necklace? It seemed utterly absurd.
“It’s the necklace my sister–in–law Mackenzie lent me. It was a gift from my

Sebastian sighed inwardly and nodded to Terence. “Yes, it’s true. What a
