Chapter 2397


    That very night, the news of Jerzy''s death did not spread across Capital City as Fade had expected. Instead, the night was silent, as if no one knew about it.


    "It seems that the officials have covered up the news," he thought.


    Anyhow, he put these thoughts away and focused on the preparation for the wedding on the next day.


    However, at this time, a phone call from Jaguar came in.


    Fade thought that Jaguar would ask about Jerzy, but he did not mention it at all, which surprised him.


    Instead, he told Fade a piece of news.


    It was about his rmendation to the Sixteen Inner Halls on Prohibition Ind a while ago. Jaguar had received their feedback.


    As a result, the chiefs of the Sixteen Inner Halls did not approve the request. Even the chief of the Green Wood Hall, whom Jaguar was most familiar with, mentioned that further evaluation was needed.


    In other words, the matter of Fade entering the Sixteen Inner Halls on Prohibition Ind could only be put away for the time being.


    Jaguar was obviously a little disappointed.


    After all, he was almost selected by the inner ind in the past. However, in the end, his efforts were in vain. Therefore, he really hoped that Fade could seize this opportunity to surpass him and embark on a stronger path.


    However, Fade was not really attracted to the idea of being selected to enter the Sixteen Inner Hall.


    In fact, his impression on the Sixteen Inner Hall got worse after he had heard about the affairs of the chief of the Beauties Hall from Alicia. Anyway, he still thanked Jaguar for his kindness.


    After the call, Fade confirmed the ceremony process onest time.


    Early the next morning, on Fade''s wedding day, Peaceful Garden was bustling, bright and lively.


    Fade got up early in the morning and began his job of weing the guests.


    Vaguely, he could hear the guests discussing the news of him getting rejected by the Sixteen Inner Hall.


    For a moment, many of the guests'' expressions changed.


    There was a hubbub from all over the ce.


    "Fade has been rejected by the Sixteen Inner Hall. It seems like his potential is just so-so after all. He must''ve bragged too much!"


    "Jerzy should still be in Capital City! He won''t let him go so easily, will he?"


    "There''s also the Song family. I heard that they''ve already sent people over."All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Will today''s wedding turn into a farce?"


    "I don''t think so, but the Song family and the Yuwen family would definitely not hold back just because of a wedding."


    In the midst of the discussion, quite a few people were worried and their attitudes began to shift gradually. There were even some who began to back down, wanting to leave the venue.


    However, Fade did not seem to care about these rumors. He continued to prepare for the wedding.


    As the ceremony was about to start, Momo sat in her designated seat along with her two friends, Iris and Padgett.


    As expected, the wedding was very grand and exquisite, and every detail was carefully crafted.


    The stage was set up in the centre of the lotus pond of Peaceful Garden whereas the guests'' seats were arranged in the surrounding courtyards and pavilions.


    The environment was elegant and simple, yet the decorations were exquisite.


    As for the food, the quality and taste were all of the best.


    The wine prepared was Life Elixir Wine from Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. Most of the guests were eager to take a taste and they poured themselves a big ss of wine.


    After all, the Life Elixir Wine from Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc had gained a big name within the country. It was so popr that there was a shortage in the past few years due to the high demand.


    Many big shots couldn''t even get a hold of it even if they could afford it.


    Now that they had a chance to have a taste of it at this wedding banquet, naturally, they did not want to miss such an opportunity.


    Putting the Life Elixir Wine aside, it would probably drive the guests crazy if they found out that Sacred Water was provided to the VIPs. Sacred Water could improve a martial artist''s strength. Thus, countless people yearned for it in the martial arts circle.


    As of right now, Fade was sending bottles of Sacred Water out as a gift. Many were envious and exhrated at the sight of such a generous gift. Meanwhile, Iris was gaping at the things in front of her in shock. She swallowed hard and gawked. "Momo, Fade is way too rich!"


    Momo waved her hand with a smile and replied proudly, "Fade doesn''t really care about money. I believe he himself isn''t even aware of how wealthy he is. His biggest strength is actually his martial arts skills."


    "He''s too strong and powerful." Iris was in a daze.


    The two girls were chatting amongst themselves when they suddenly noticed Padgett, who had aplex expression, by their side.


    Instantly, Momo asked him with concern, "Padgett, what''s wrong? Are you not well?"


    "I... I''m fine." He waved his hand and squeezed out a smile, but he couldn''t hide the strange expression.


    "Padgett, why don''t I find you a doctor? Or, should I ask Fade toe over and have a look at you? He is a miracle doctor and his medical skills are impable," Momo suggested.


    "No, no, it''s too much trouble. I''m fine. Perhaps, I didn''t sleep wellst night. I''ll go to the restroom for a moment," Padgett said as he got up and headed towards the bathroom.


    Upon seeing this, Momo frowned in confusion and asked, "What''s wrong with Padgett? He seems to be in a strange state today!"


    At the side tris'' expression shifted


    ufortably. She seemed to be a little hesitant. Finally, she finally took a deep breath and blurted out, "Momo, Padgett might have heard some rumors, so he..."


    "Rumors! Do you mean the ones about Fade?" Momo looked at her.


    Iris nodded and continued, "I think so. Padgett came to Capital City in hopes to cooperate with Fade. He has repeated it several times on the way here."


    "But he hasn''t mentioned it since we arrived


    here."


    Momo couldn''t help but get lost in her own thoughts. "It seems to be true. Yesterday, when I asked him to talk to Lily, he avoided the matter. Did the Wu family change their mind?"


    Iris said in a deep voice, "Momo, I''m afraid it''s due to the rumors. Padgett must''ve had some second thoughts, so..."


    "Then..." Momo finally came to a realization and she said in a low voice, "Padgett and the Wu family are worried that they will be involved in the matter, so they''re pulling out."


    "That''s likely to be the case!" Iris nodded her head gently.


    Momo frowned slightly. "No way, Padgett isn''t so snobbish, is he? Besides, I''ve already told him that Fade is undefeatable, no matter who the enemy is. How could he think like this!"
