He Buried Me But I Painted My Own Resurrection novel Chapter 284

At exactly eight o'clock, the crystal chandeliers lit up the hall like broad daylight.

The gala reached its absolute climax.

Arthur stepped up to the main stage, looking invigorated, his dress shoes making steady, powerful thuds against the carpet.

He took the microphone from the MC, his fingers trembling slightly from excitement.

The lights in the entire hall suddenly dimmed.

Only a single spotlight remained, shining straight down on the head of the Sullivan Group.

"Distinguished guests, dear friends, good evening."

Arthur's voice echoed through the speakers, carrying unconcealable emotion, the end of his words quivering slightly.

"Today, I invited you all here to witness a joyous occasion that is of the utmost importance to me, and to the entire Sullivan family."

He paused, his gaze sweeping slowly across the crowd, building a profound sense of ceremony.

The spotlight shifted with his gaze, eventually landing squarely on Sienna.

"Standing right there is my biological daughter, whom I was separated from for over twenty years, the Sullivan family's only treasure—Sienna Sawyer!"

The moment his words landed, thunderous applause erupted across the hall, refusing to fade.

People stood up in excitement, raised their champagne glasses in toasts, and words of congratulation filled the air.

Smiling, Arthur reached out his hand to Sienna, his eyes full of the tenderness he had missed out on for over two decades.

"Now, I invite my daughter to come stand by my side."

Sienna lifted the hem of her gown and, under the gaze of hundreds, walked onto the stage step by step.

Her pace was calm and elegant, every step landing perfectly in the brightest part of the light, as if proving to everyone that she was born to stand there.

However, just as she was about to reach Arthur's side, right before her fingers could touch the microphone...

"Wait!"
