The ten minutes while the short film was being played was the right time for the host families to regain their reputation. The hotel cleaners also had more time to clean up the mess.
In the hotel room, Richard could still smell his entire body stinking although he had changed. In front of the Harpers and the Huffs, he knelt down to Xyla. “My dear, you must believe me; I really have nothing to do with that woman named Ella.”
Xyla was weeping in tears and did not believe him. The faces of the Huffs seemed sullen as well. Xyla’s uncle, Joe, stepped up to resolve the matter. “You say you have nothing to do with that girl named Ella, but what about the child?” Joe looked incredibly stern.
Richard was terrified of Joe as he said, “I’ve been to the Paradise Club, but it was only for business purposes. I promise that I’d never do anything to hurt Xyla; if you don’t believe me, I can swear to God. If I’ve ever touched any other women, I will be struck by lightning!”
Xyla was shedding tears of sadness, but her mind was immediately filled with hatred.
Good job, Sophia. I did not expect you to pull off such a jerk-move!
Do you want to spoil this engagement ceremony?
Don’t even think about it!
Xyla choked twice before she helped Richard onto his feet and said, “I believe you, Richard. There are people who don’t want us to be together, and we must not let their plan prevail!”
Richard was so moved that he hugged Xyla tightly. He knew that Xyla would always stay so kind!
Damn you, Ella. Who the hell let her in here?!
It must’ve been Sophia!
That wh*re really wanted to get rid of him after not being able to with him!
The two of them had compromised with each other. As for the two families, they were too embarrassed to turn their faces against one another as well. Joe had come out to redress the situation as well. “It’s alright, it’s all over now. Don’t ruin today’s mood just because of this. Today is your big day!”
Who knew that right after those words had come from Joe, there was another uproar at the engagement banquet? A mixture of indescribable moaning sounds could be heard.
The sound seemed to be coming from the stereo!
Didn’t they just play the short movie moments ago?
The two families immediately dashed out to the scene and they were once again dumbfounded.
On the stage of the engagement banquet, the high-definition big screen that was used to play the short film just now was currently playing a series of age restricted videos which were indescribable. It seemed just like pornography shots in a hotel room, and the clips were constantly switching; it had gotten more exciting from frame to frame. There were popular celebrities in the film and also the top streetwalkers from clubs included in the short clips—even Ella from just now had shown up. The man in the video clips was none other than Richard.
The audio was tremendously loud, filling the entire engagement banquet with their moaning sounds.
Richard stood still right at the spot; it was as if he had really been struck by lightning when he saw the indescribable scene being played on the screen. He seemed like he had been electrocuted as he momentarily lost contact with his brains. All he heard in his ears were buzzing sounds.
What was that?
When did they secretly film this?!
How could it be?!
He had obviously done a perfect job without leaving any videos as evidence. How did the videos show up here?
Who was the one secretly filming them? Who was the one who had played it on the screen?
There was an uproar among the guests as they remained stunned once again.
What was all these…
Who had the Harpers offended?
This was such a ruthless way of dealing with it!
Playing these sort of videos on someone else’s engagement ceremony, if it was not video clips of fornicating other’s wives or daughters, it would be clips of killing an entire family!
When Xyla saw the face of the man in the tapes, her whole world had collapsed before her—she had even narrowly passed out. Fortunately, Xyla’s mother was there to help her up.
