You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 616

It was the end of October and the cool autumn breeze was blowing across the region. The maple leaves were red like fire as they covered the hill.

The North Mountain was verdant, and covered in banyan trees. There was a castle standing on the mountain.

John had initially built his house there, thinking that it would serve as his retirement home, but now, he wanted to live there for the rest of his life with Nina and his kids. The lush banyan trees were like guards, which were guarding their queen, Nina, who was to move in with her king, John.

Once the North Yard castle's construction was completed, Helen took over as its senior housekeeper. She then recruited many servants dressed in neat uniforms to work under her.

Thirty-seven of John's bodyguards were now transferred to North Yard castle and were made responsible for guarding the castle.

Every security guard had a concealed Bluetooth receiver hidden behind their ear for communicating with each other, and Richard was responsible for the control room.

The castle was nearly as big as half the mountain, and one of its entrances was located near the countryside.

Normally the guests would be allowed to come inside driving their cars, but that day, they had to get out at the main entrance and walk 800 meters to the wedding venue.

Amy stood at the main gate. She would only let a guest in if they showed her the invitation card with their name on it.

One of the guests wanted to bring a date, but since the woman's name was not on the invite, she was not allowed to get in.

Someone tried to get in using someone else's invitation, but the facial recognition software instantly found that he was impersonating someone else, and Amy kicked him out of the North Mountain.

There were also people who wanted to use drones to shoot the event from air, but Richard took a chopper and took down every one of those drones, thus warning the people who were controlling them.

John and Nina did not want the media to capture their wedding. They had only planned it for close friends and relatives.

A black Rolls-Royce came to a halt outside the castle's gate. Seeing that, Amy instantly found it to be one of John's cars. They had arranged the car to pick up another powerful man in the city, Tim.

The first person to get out of the car was Victor, who was dressed in a formal suite. He looked much more decent than his usual self, which made Amy feel like it was almost impossible to recognize him

But the moment he spoke, his usual rude tone returned, making the expensive suit nothing but a decoration to cover up his personality.

"We're here. Mr. Shen, please get out of the car." Victor looked up at the castle and exclaimed, "Rich people know how to live, don't they?"

The moment he said those words, someone looked at him. John's and Nina's families were both very respectable. They were not just wealthy, but also powerful.

Although they were too educated to look at Victor with disdain, they could not hide their doubts about his nature.

Once Tim got out of the car, some of their expressions changed from confusion to a sense of complexity.

They had no idea who Victor was, but they were able to recognize Tim. They weren't friends with him, but they had heard of him quite a few times.

Tim used to be a mercenary while Victor used to be a gangster. Hence, Tim was cool and indifferent with a murderous gaze, while Victor was more loose-lipped.

There was a scar on Tim's left eyebrow. His gaze was fierce, like that of a hungry lion's.

There were bags under his eyes. Usually dark circles would make a person look tired, but on Tim's face they looked scary.

He stood there like a cloud of darkness from which people would want to walk away.

"Shut up! Today is John's big day, so please don't get me in trouble." Tim taught Victor a lesson.

Victor immediately slapped himself as a punishment.

Seeing Tim, Amy rushed to welcome him and said, "Mr. Shen, please come in."

"Where is your smile? You need to smile when you welcome him. Don't you know the rules, you silly woman?" Victor said discontentedly as he challenged Amy.

Amy looked at him coldly and retorted, "You are the one who doesn't know the rules. You are in the North Yard castle, so you must abide by our rules, or leave immediately."

"You..."

Victor was about to yell, but Tim glared at him and he stopped.

"If it weren't for Mr. Shen, I would have beat you up," Victor hissed.
