Skipped At The Altar, Taken By His Uncle novel Chapter 90

Chapter 90

On the day they went to City Hall, Emily put extra effort into her look. Carter, do you think this white dress looks good on me?she asked.

Carter, barely paying attention, said, Yes

What about this one?Emily asked, showing him another dress.

Carter didn’t even bother to look up and said, Yes.

Anyone could tell he was just going through the motions.

Emily’s excitement deflated in an instant. Carter, you didn’t even look!she complained.

She bit her lips, tears shimmering in her eyes. We’re getting married today. Aren’t you even a little excited?

Carter lowered his gaze, his voice tinged with helplessness, You look great. I’m not just saying that. We’re supposed to be at City Hall at nine, and I don’t want to be late.

Emily, you look good in anything,he added.

Emily finally managed a smile. Carter, what about this one? I think it makes me look a little slimmer than the one I m wearing.

Carter gave her a casual glance, and then froze.

He remembered buying two of these white dresses while passing by a boutique on a business trip, one for Whitnes and he other for Emily.

He’d grabbed the extra one because he thought Emily would look amazing in it.

Back then, Emily was overseas, so she and Whitney could never have that awkward moment of showing up in the very witne dress.

Whitney had worn the dress a lot because Carter gave it to her as a gift.

What Carter didn’t know was that whenever Whitney showed up in that white dress, people is their case had ki her about copying Emily’s fashion sense.

Carter awkwardly rubbed his nose and said, Why not change into another one? You’ve had this dress agys the one you’re wearing now looks better

Emily looked at him suspiciously and said, “Really? But Carter, when you gave ine this dress last cons verwy was overseas, so I kept it just to wear for you when you came to see me Look its will brand new

Enough!Carter suddenly snapped, feeling a wave of irritation Don’t wear that one don’t lock plankek 40 outdated just stick with the one you’ve got on!

Emily tried to hold back her tears as she fared (arter who had lost his pathetic out of nowhers

gotten married.

There were just two people ahead of them in line, so they didn’t have to war long.

Sabrina had gone all out for the big day and came along to make sure everything was perfect.

Carter, Emily, I’m going to record the whole thing for you,Sabrina said with a smile.

When Emily finally held the marriage papers in her hands, she could finally breathe easy.

The staff member who had served Klein last time knew that Carter, the heir of Harris Group, was coming today so he

howed up early, hoping to get another big tip.

He was practically salivating at the thought of another fat envelope.

He wasn’t the only one. Even the cleaning lady who’d scored a tip last time was waiting outside, afraid she’d miss out if she wasn’t quick enough.

Emily stood at the front, blushing. Carter, can we recite the vows together?she asked.

Carter gave a slight frown, not really wanting to, but he didn’t want to let her down.

Okay, let’s recite them,he replied.

Emily blushed as she read the vows line by line, while Carter repeated them in a monotone, as if he were giving a speech at a corporate event, completely emotionless.

Sabrina could tell something was off as she kept filming.

Carter, you need to sound more heartfelt! Let’s try again. This one doesn’t count!Sabrina said.

The staff member jumped in quickly, grinning, Hey, how about I record it for you guys? This is what we do best

sabrina thought it over and agreed easily, That’d be awesome, thanks!

Carter was about to lose it, but with Sabrina constantly chiming in, he could only manage to sound a inte nonotone robot than before.

Sabrina still wasn’t totally satisfied, but she knew Carter wouldn’t go for third take so she let it go

Alright, that’s a wrap! Take a look and see if you like it,the staff member sani

He blinked at her, looking hopeful.

Sabrina pursed her lips and said, Yeah, it’s fine. Thanks a lot

With that, she turned and walked over 10 Carter and Emily

The staff member blinked a litle confused

Wait, that’s it? Wasn’t today supposed to be the CFC’s big wedding Where’s the bug log he thought about bacter

The others looked just as let down As the three of them got ready to leave City Hall fear of unkokaiing lady he was all looking disappointed

with him!

Emily suddenly realized she’d left her ID back in the registration hall. Moin, I need to go grab it

Let Carter go with you. Good thing you noticed. Don’t lose it!Sabrina muttered.

Carter shoved one hand in his pocket, feeling even more annoyed.

Come on, let’s go get it. Emily, you’re really all over the place today,he said.

Emily’s heart sank a little, but she kept quiet. The two of them headed back into the hail together.

None of the staff even noticed when they walked back in.

Hey, did this Mr. Harris hand out any envelopes today?one of them whispered.

Nope! Sure, they’re both Harrises, but not every boss hands out fat envelopes like the last one!another grumbied.

Someone still wouldn’t give up, asking, Seriously, not even a penny?

Not a single penny! I even helped them film the whole thing, and I got nothing!the first person complained

Alright, it’s not even a rule. Don’t push it,someone else chimed in.

But just then, the staff member caught sight of the couple standing by the door, and his smile froze.

Uh, what are you doing here?he stammered, his voice trailing off. Didn’t you already finish everything

Emily was about to explode with anger.

she stormed over, her face flushed with rage. Do you staff just talk smack about people behind their back? vant?she said.

Seriously, you guys are so greedy! Since when do we have fo hand out money just for getting out cachos Jnbelievable!Emily snapped.
