Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 291

“No wonder it looks like she's wearing a galaxy. It's so dreamy and beautiful.”

“Where did this bride even come from? Has anyone in Empire City heard of her before?”

“I heard she just got back from studying abroad. Don't you read the news? She's an AI prodigy with her own patents. Don't let her beauty fool you into thinking she's just a trophy wife; she's actually a career woman.”

“Right, right! I saw comments on the livestream saying they went from high school sweethearts to a married couple. That's so rare. Mr. Sterling must be head over heels.”

Summer chimed in at the perfect moment, “Did you guys know Mr. Sterling was married before?”

The female guests jumped, turning to look at her. Summer smiled brightly and took off her sunglasses.

They found her face vaguely familiar and eyed her suspiciously. “Are you serious?”

Summer's smile widened. “Of course.”

The young women were burning with curiosity, but Summer said no more, turning her gaze back to the couple under the spotlight.

“Come on, don't leave us hanging like that!”

The guest muttered a quiet complaint before following Summer's gaze, soon returning to their excited, hushed chatter.

“Mr. Sterling is so handsome. His face and physique are top-tier.”

“Did Lily save the world in her past life? How else did she get to marry someone so rich, gorgeous, and utterly devoted to her?”

“I'm getting so jealous just watching them.”

“They're a perfect match. They look like they walked right out of a romance novel.”

Summer watched quietly. She watched them exchange their vows, and she watched them slip the rings onto each other's fingers.

Not far away, Miles watched her with high alert.

He didn't trust Summer for a second. If she made even the slightest suspicious move, he was ready to tackle her.

He absolutely would not allow his sister's wedding to be ruined.

The host announced that the groom could now kiss the bride.

Custom fireworks lit up the venue, pushing the atmosphere to its absolute peak amidst thunderous applause.

At that moment, Lily felt like she was floating on cloud nine. The sheer bliss was so overwhelming it defied description.

Her gaze cut through the crowd and landed squarely on Summer's face.

Her eyes seemed to say: *Look, Summer. I won.*

She had invited Summer on purpose.

She wanted Summer to see with her own eyes just how much Xavier loved her.

To see how luxurious, grand, and meticulously planned this wedding was.

Meanwhile, Summer was nothing but a pathetic, lowly proxy. It was only through Lily's charity that she had married into wealth and touched a social class she otherwise never would have reached in her lifetime.

Now, Summer's delusions were supposed to shatter.
