Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 844

Crying, Nicola stumbled forward on her short legs, heading in Noah's direction.

But she didn't get far. With a swift movement, Bennett reached over, scooped her up, and lifted her off the edge of the stage.

At that moment, the groom was kissing the bride, and with everyone's attention on the happy couple, very few people noticed the small interruption with Nicola.

The Whites saw their plan foiled and rushed forward to grab the child, but Bennett's bodyguards were faster, pinning them to the ground.

"Mr. Thompson, what should we do with them?" the head of security asked in a low voice.

"Lock them in a room upstairs for now. We'll deal with them after the wedding," Bennett replied coldly.

His men efficiently escorted the Whites out of the hall. Bennett, now holding Nicola, returned to his seat.

Nicola's eyes were still red, and she was crying softly.

Bennett, who was hopeless at comforting children, was overwhelmed by her tears and promptly handed her over to Yvonne.

Yvonne cradled Nicola in her arms and gave her a piece of candy from the table.

Nicola nibbled on the candy and soon quieted down.

"Did you come here with your mommy, Nicola?" Yvonne asked gently.

"I came with Mommy, Grandpa, and Grandma," Nicola answered in her child-like voice.

"Was it your mommy who told you to go on stage and find your daddy?" Yvonne continued.

For years, the Whites had leveraged their ties to the Thompsons to act arrogantly, making many enemies. Now that Noah and Karina were divorced, those who had previously tolerated them out of respect for the Thompsons would no longer hold back.

"It’s not that the Whites are clueless, it’s just that they blatantly favor their son. If it were their son, Kevin, marrying into a prominent family, you can bet his parents wouldn't dare sabotage him."

Yvonne's tone was sharp and sarcastic.

Mr. James Sr. was again left speechless. Upon reflection, he realized Yvonne had a point.

Seeing him silent, Yvonne added another jab. "Speaking of which, your wonderful son, upon hearing that Noah was divorced, actually suggested I help marry off your precious granddaughter to the Thompsons as well."

"He did what?" The elder Mr. James nearly choked, sputtering as he struggled to catch his breath.

It was unheard of for a major family to marry two of their daughters into the same family—it was a waste of resources. If the James family married both their granddaughter and great-granddaughter into the Thompson family, with the latter stepping in as Noah's second wife, they would look incredibly desperate and become a total laughingstock.
