Chapter 300
“Oh, I see. It seems like Jeffery indeed loves that girl..
“He even gave up Miss Bailey for her. It is so sweet!” someone said enviously.
“Maybe Jeffery did not have an option,” a girl in the crowd raised an objection.
“What do you mean?” the others asked in confusion.
“Miss Bailey is from such an influential family but has never appeared in public over the years.
“It is probably because she is very ugly and does not have the courage to show up in front of people.
“I can not figure out a better explanation than that.”
Hearing that, the girls around her all fell into deep thought.
“That makes sense.”
“Yup.”
“God is fair. He gave her an enviable identity but not a beautiful face.”
Everyone discussed it with mixed feelings.
Simon and the others happened to be around and heard every word they said clearly.
Gavin noticed his boss tighten his grip on the wine glass, obviously a little annoyed.
He immediately said, “Mr. Hernandez, they are talking nonsense. You don’t have to take it to heart. Miss Bailey will not cry because Jeffery married someone else.”
Simon shot him a glare as if to say, “I don’t need you to tell me.”
That girl would not let out a cry even if she was seriously injured.
How could she cry for a man?
Not to mention it was Jeffery.

“Miss Bailey will not fall for Jeffery. She must only have you in her heart,” Gavin continued to comfort his boss with a flattering smile.
“It is obvious. You don’t have to remind me.” Simon raised his eyebrows as he said this..
“Sorry, I shouldn’t haye said that.” Gavin hurriedly lowered his head.
However, despite what Simon said, Gavin saw his compressed lips curve up.
He was obviously pleased, but he was acting as if he was still mad.
Gavin could tell Mr. Hernandez became less impersonal after he met Miss Bailey.
And now, he would even get jealous like other men.
Simon did not notice the change in Gavin’s eyes.
He looked at his watch and said, “Is the wedding ceremony about to start?”
”
Yes. The invitation says that the ceremony will start at 12:28. There are still five minutes left, Gavin immediately replied.
“Mm. Simon replied and looked down at the wine glass in his hand.
Under the light, the red liquid became even darker.
It was just like Simon’s unfathomable gaze.
No one could tell what he was thinking when they looked into his eyes.
Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
The emcee walked onto the stage with a smile.
After giving a touching speech, he invited the bride into the venue.
However, after he finished speaking, the door that was supposed to be open was still closed tightly.
A trace of surprise flashed across the man’s face.
As an experienced emcee, he managed to calm himself down quickly.
“It must be because my voice was so low that the bride did not hear me. Everyone, let’s welcome the bride to the stage with a big round of applause!”
The emcee continued, raising his voice.
The guests all applauded cooperatively.
Another minute passed, but the door was still closed tightly.
The guests could not help but discuss in a low voice.
“What’s going on?
“Why has the bride not shown up yet?
“Could it be that she ran away from the wedding?”

“It is Impossible! Every girl dreams of marrying such a rich, handsome man like Jeffery. Why would she want to run away?”
Just as everyone was discussing, a hotel staffer hurried up the stage.
He whispered in Jeffery’s ear for a while.
Jeffery grew anxious at his words and left in a hurry under everyone’s gaze.
Watching him leave, the guests who had not expected anything big to happen grew even more curious.
They followed behind him, pretending that they were worried about the bride.
Simon took advantage of the chaos among the guests and left from the back door.
Jeffery left the banquet hall and walked straight towards the hotel lounge.
When he arrived, he saw several hotel staffers gathering outside.
“Hasn’t the door opened yet?” Jeffery asked with a stern look.
“The keyhole seems to be blocked. We can’t unlock the door with the spare key,” a hotel staffer said apologetically.
Since you can’t unlock it with the key, why don’t you just kick the door open? Get out of the way!” Jeffery yelled angrily.
The hotel staffers immediately moved aside.
Jeffery took a step back and charged forward to kick the door open.
However, when they rushed into the lounge, they did not see anyone inside.
Jeffery’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
He searched the lounge thoroughly but still could not find Chrislyn and Marina.
“What? The bride really ran away from her wedding?”
“Yes. This is definitely the most explosive news of the year!”
The guests who came up to check out what was going on were all extremely excited.
Jeffery immediately took out his phone and dialed Chrislyn’s number.
