Chapter 240


    Despite being one of the Ten Acimed Socialites, Zoey had a really nasty temper.


    “How stupid. What''s the point of doing it after the ceremony? The only way to stop this wedding is to


    act before they walk the red carpet! Is that understood?” she scolded.


    “Y-Yes, I''ll make the arrangements right away!”


    Zoey gently swirled the ss in her hand as her lips curled into a malicious smile.


    Oh, things are about to get interesting. There''s no way the Luther family would be able to continue the


    wedding after everyone sees Rhonda having sex with some random stranger! This is what she gets for


    stealing my man!


    Having lost her patience after waiting seven long years, Zoey was determined to kick Rhonda out of the


    Luther family for good.


    Meanwhile, a waiter entered the dressing room with a ss of milk on a tray.


    “Here you go, Mrs. Luther. Have some milk. You haven''t eaten anything all morning.”


    Since Rhonda was indeed feeling a little hungry, she took the ss of milk over without giving it much


    thought. “Step outside, all of you. I want some time alone.”


    “Yes.”


    About five minutester, Rhonda realized something was not right as her body started heating up, and


    waves of difort swept over her.


    Thinking she had yet to recover from her recent miscarriage, Rhonda staggered to her feet and


    nced about. Since there were no restrooms in the dressing room, she lifted the hem of her gown and


    went looking outside.


    The corridor waspletely quiet as she made her way toward the restroom at the end of it.


    Suddenly, the door to one of the rooms along the corridor was opened. An arm then reached out and


    dragged her into the room.


    “Ah! Help—”


    The door closed before she could finish her sentence, and the corridor was plunged into silence once


    again.


    Meanwhile, Felicity was socializing with a couple of wealthy women when Beatrice politely interrupted


    them and pulled her aside.


    “It''s almost eleven now, Mrs. Luther. Why isn''t Artemis here yet?”


    “What? It''s eleven already?” Felicity paused and nced at her watch. “Oh, my goodness! I was so


    busy socializing with the guests that I forgot about the time! I''ll give Artemis a call and ask him where


    he''s at!”


    She then retrieved her phone from her handbag and punched in Artemis'' number.


    Right as she was about to make that call, the projector on the stage started flickering all of a sudden.


    What followed was an ear-piercing buzz and shocking footage.


    As the lighting in the footage was bright enough, all the guests were able to see what was going on


    clearly.


    The sounds of them gasping in shock echoed throughout the hall, and everyone started freaking out


    momentster.


    “My goodness! Isn''t that the bride?”


    “Who else would be wearing a wedding gown worth three hundred million?”

    “What is she doing? Is she having a quick one before the wedding ceremony? That guy on top of her


    doesn''t look like Mr. Luther, though...”


    “Oh, my... Is she seriously cheating on Mr. Luther in front of everyone?”


    Felicity and Beatrice were so shocked that they both froze on the spot.


    Standing among the crowd, Gerald simply frowned when he saw the footage.


    rence, on the other hand, was panicking so much that he felt tempted to just flee the scene.


    “Mmph...”


    A questionable moan could be hearding from the speakers, causing the guests to lose their minds


    once again.


    “Whoa! Did you hear that? She sounds like she''s enjoying it!”


    “This has got to be the most exciting wedding I''ve ever been to my entire life! Is this how the most


    prominent family in Hallsbay prefers its weddings?”


    “What are you guys standing around for? Let''s go to the dressing room and watch from there!”


    Felicity felt her legs giving out beneath her.


    Fortunately, Caridee happened to be nearby and caught her just in time. “Go have a look, Mom! I''ll call


    Artemis and tell him toe over!”


    Gerald came over and helped hold Felicity steady as he said, “Calm down. For now, let''s just head over


    to the dressing room and find out what''s really going on. Caridee, tell Simon to lock the ce down and


    cut the livestream. After that, you can give Artemis a call.”


    “Got it, Dad!”


    Meanwhile, in Shelbert Condominium, Artemis and Bailey exchanged nces when they saw the


    livestream of the wedding.


    “Pfft! Looks like you won''t be able to carry out your n, Mr. Luther! Someone else has made their


    move on Rhonda!” Bailey eximed with a snicker.


    The look in Artemis'' eyes turned gloomy as he uttered, “First an abortifacient, and now a knock-out


    drug... Just who did Rhonda make an enemy of?”


    Bailey froze upon hearing that. “You mean the person who drugged Rhonda is the same one who gave


    her the abortifacient a few days ago?”


    Artemis shook his head. “I''m not sure. This is just my guess at the moment. I''ll need to head over to


    Century Hotel and investigate this matter.”


    Meanwhile, in the dressing room, Rhonda had truly experienced what it was like to fall from grace as


    shey shivering in Beatrice''s arms with a red nket wrapped around her body.


    “You''re okay now, Ronni. Everything is all right. Don''t be afraid, okay?” Beatriceforted her, but


    Rhonda was in too much shock to hear her.


    I can''t believe I got vited at my own wedding! This has got to be the most humiliating thing I''ve ever


    experienced! How will I ever recover from this?


    Gerald sat in front of her with Felicity, who had passed out from the shock in his arms.


    “This isn''t Ronni''s fault, Mr. Luther. Someone set her up! Luckily for us, we were able to stop it before


    things got out of hand. All that''s left to do is investigate this matter and find out who did it!” rence


    mumbled nervously from the side.


    Gerald simply kept quiet.


    Suddenly, the door to the dressing room was opened, and Simon came in saying, “Dad, we have the


    situation outside under control. All the guests and journalists are currently being contained in the event


    hall. I have yet to find out who drugged Rhonda, though. Whoever it was did a really good job at


    covering their tracks. I can''t find anything from the surveince camera footage, either.”


    Gerald nodded. “What about your brother? Is he here?”


    “He said he''ll be here soon.”


    Gerald gave it some thought and told rence, “Looks like we won''t be able to proceed with this


    wedding today. While this incident has brought great shame to both our families, everyone else will


    ce the me on your daughter alone if we can''t find out who drugged her.”


    After hearing that, rence went pale instantly


    No, this can''t be happening! I''ve been waiting for my daughter to marry into the Luther family for so


    many years! Why would something like this happen now?


    Rhonda, who had been silent the whole time, stammered all of a sudden, “N-No, I''m not canceling the


    wedding! I will be Artemis'' bride no matter what!”
