Nothing Matters, except YOU & Me novel Chapter 474

The Hart Residence was bustling with people. Elliot and Tilly arrived in the same car, while the door of another car opened to reveal Shawn, who then held the door open for Estelle.

The third car had stopped, and Philip came out of it. At that moment, all of Myra and Tony’s friends had arrived. When they were in the living room, Serena warmly received them while Henry smiled happily. He was overjoyed that his Uncle Tony was finally getting married.

Everyone went upstairs, and the men and women went to different rooms. According to local customs, the bride and bridesmaid would lock themselves in the bride’s room, while the groom and the groomsmen had to complete a series of challenges set by the bridesmaids in order to be let into the room to pick up the bride before proceeding with the wedding ceremony. Estelle and Tilly went straight to Myra’s room. Pushing open the door, Estelle was astonished that the one who was talking and laughing with Myra was none other than Heather.

Time had been too forgiving to Heather because her face still looked like that of a teen girl’s. She didn’t expect Heather to still look so good even without makeup on.

As soon as Heather’s eyes met Estelle’s, Heather immediately straightened up and her majestic aura returned. Although it was a moment’s effort, Estelle was still amazed. After all, Heather had always been this way and a shift in expression wasn’t hard for her.

Meanwhile, Tilly’s impression of Heather was her beauty. Now that she saw how different she looked, she was shocked too. No matter what kind of look Heather went for, she always looked good. She was eye-catching no matter where she went.

Heather was still not used to being seen looking like this, and shifting expressions was only a matter of seconds for her. Soon, she returned to normal.

Showing a polite smile, she didn’t want to scare people away on Myra’s wedding day. Estelle glanced at Heather profoundly, still unable to believe how easy-going she appeared to be. She was always waiting for the moment when Heather revealed her true colors. As long as she acted a little unusually, Estelle would get a tinge of excitement.

“All set?” Estelle spoke first to break the ice.

Myra was smiling extra radiantly. Accompanied by today’s makeup, she looked so good that it was difficult to take one’s eyes off her. A bride always looked the best on her wedding day. At that moment, Estelle and Tilly gazed at Myra and congratulated her. It was such a wonderful day.

“Just waiting for the groom,” Myra said with a grin on her face.

“They’re probably ready and should be coming over in a while.” Tilly twiddled the phone in her hand. In fact, Elliot had been updating her about the situation on their side.

On the other hand, Tony looked handsome and charming, and his eyes sparkled. Lucas was also dressed up nicely. As the best man, he looked attractive. Philip also wasn’t to be outdone and was dressed extra nicely today.

In contrast, Elliot and Shawn kept a low profile and dressed simply. Tony looked at his watch from time to time, wishing for time to go faster. He couldn’t wait to see Myra.

Seeing this, Elliot said teasingly, “I wonder how many women’s hearts you’re going to capture today, Tony.”

Tony laughed and did not answer, while the others followed suit. Then, Philip chimed in, “You three aren’t single, so you should give us opportunities.”

“There are many beautiful women at the wedding today, so keep an eye out.” Elliot and Philip bantered with each other while waiting for time to pass.

The more anxious one was, the more they would feel that time was moving too slowly. As soon as it was time, Tony impatiently rushed out from the room with speed that no one could catch up to. It didn’t take long for him to reach the other room as he strode toward the door.

As he stood at the door, he reached out to pull it open, but it was locked from the inside. Politely, he knocked but no one answered. Seeing this, Elliot went up to the door and slammed his palm against the door.

Inside came Tilly’s voice. “Stop knocking. Whether this door opens depends on your sincerity.” One step ahead of Estelle, Tilly answered cleverly.

“What do you mean by sincerity?” Elliot shouted through the door.

“Give us the money packets,” Estelle said from inside the room.

In fact, Tony anticipated this and had prepared everything beforehand. He pulled out a stack of money packets and was ready to slip them through the gap beneath the door.

However, Shawn intercepted him and smiled at him. “We can’t do whatever they say. Worst comes to worst, we’ll break in.” He had always been domineering, and this was clearly said for those inside the room to hear.

“We’ll see whether you or the door is stronger,” Estelle said, not afraid at all that they would break the door down. She was confident that no human would be able to break in.

“Let’s find out,” Shawn said carelessly. They weren’t ordinary people, so this door was nothing to them.

“Don’t.” Tony quickly stopped Shawn, astonished that he would be so serious at a time like this.

“I’ve prepared so many money packets. We’ll have to give it to them anyway.” Tony didn’t want to delay further over money packets, but he knew that it wasn’t going to be easy for him to see Myra.
