"Nonsense! Today is a banquet held by the owner of this crystal castle, how could it be your wedding? Casey, are you insane? Dare you make trouble here! Aren't afraid to anger the owner of the crystal castle?" Leia stared at Casey contemptuously, obviously not believing Casey's words.
"How dare you, a wimp, come here. You sneaked in, didn't you? I'll go to the security guards of crystal castle and let them arrest you!" Flora also looked at Casey angrily. Obviously, she didn't think Casey had the same qualifications as her to appear in such a magnificent place.
The relatives of the Patel family, and those of Edith's classmates, all began to mock Casey frantically, wishing to drown him with their words.
Casey had expected them to be like this a long time ago, which was why he let them in first.
"Everyone, believe it or not, today is indeed my wedding with Edith. Our wedding a few years ago was not satisfactory. This wedding is my compensation for Edith. I want you to see that it is a happy thing for Edith to marry me."
Casey clapped his hands and spoke in a clear voice.
Afterwards, on the crystal wall in the center of the crystal castle, a curtain fell and two crystal statues were exposed. It was Casey and Edith in formal suits and wedding dresses.
Everyone present was shocked by the two statues. They had never seen such a lifelike statue. No matter how bad their visions were, they could still tell that the two statues were just like Casey and Edith.
No matter how bored the owner of the crystal castle was, he would not put two statues of insignificant people here. That could only show that Casey was not lying. Today, perhaps it was really his wedding with Edith.
After knowing the truth of this banquet, the expressions of Albie and all the people suddenly became very gloomy. They thought that today's banquet was a springboard for them to move towards the upper class. They had never imagined that this was actually Casey and Edith's wedding.
The sense of psychological gap in their hearts made them impossible to be happy no matter what.
"Casey, don't you think the wedding back then was shameful? Go and see how many people are around now. Once they know that your wedding is held here, you will once again become the biggest joke in J City!"
At this moment, Amara and Nicholas walked in. Jennifer followed them, looking helpless. She wanted to bless Casey, but she could only follow them silently under Amara's authority.
Everyone turned their heads and looked towards Amara. After hearing what Amara said, they all laughed, thinking that Amara was right. Once people outside knew that it was Casey's wedding here, he would be laughed at by the whole J City.
Thinking about it this way, the emotions of the people who were still a little lost all eased a lot.
"Casey, I didn't expect you still have the courage to have another wedding. Is it possible that ignominy you suffered a few years ago is not enough for you?" Albie looked at Casey with a sneer.
"What a foolish guy! I think he was born to be laughed at. He even said that it was a banquet at the crystal castle. I didn't expect it to be his wedding, which was really disappointing." Leyla also echoed in a mocking tone.
Casey looked at the crowd with contempt, laughed, and asked, "Is it a shame to have a wedding in crystal castle? Is it not because they want to get in that there are so many people outside? Who can hold a wedding here? What's the basis for me to be laughed at?"
Casey's words were like punch after punch, hammering hard at Albie's and others' self-righteousness and self-deception in their hearts, making them realize how ridiculous their thoughts were.
When they received the invitation letter, all of them were excited and felt that they must be lucky enough to be invited to the crystal castle banquet. However, after knowing that it was Casey's wedding here, they said that Casey would be humiliated again.
