    Aurora’s expression changed slightly. “You’re not even invited. Why would you go?”

    Ste was puzzled. “To do business. She hasn’t settled the final payment for the jewelry she ordered.”


    “Are you seriously going to do business on someone else’s wedding day? Are you out of your mind?”


    At that moment, Ste felt annoyed. “Are you suggesting that I should wait until her ceremony ends and


    then collect the money? What if she changes her mind and doesn’t pay me?”


    Aurora became nervous. “Is money all you think about? Why don’t you look at-“


    She paused and clenched her jaws before she continued,” You’re already a part of the Saun family.


    Uncle Wenham is providing you with everything you need and want. Why are you still so obsessed with


    making money?”


    Ste looked at Aurora, who was behaving strangely. After a brief silence, she said, “Who would


    comin about having too much money?”


    Aurora was taken aback by what she said. Then, she responded through gritted teeth, “I’ve said what I


    needed to say. Don’t regret it if something goes wrong!”


    Ste’s gaze darkened, as she asked, “And, what would go wrong?”


    Aurora paused and pursed her lips. “I was just making an example.”


    Then, she went upstairs.


    Ste watched her receding figure and thought about something.


    It was said that the groom was the only son of a deputy bureau chief, and he worked in the tobo


    industry. The family had worked for the government for three generations and was rather prestigious.


    Olivia’s husband, Erick, was promoted to mayor’s secretary at the end ofst year. It could be said that


    he had a bright future ahead. Strictly speaking, this wedding was a marriage of power.


    The wives in the social circle were all saying that Olivia had finally made it because her husband had


    seeded.


    finally enjoy afortable life in the future.


    However, since the engagement, Ste had never heard Olivia mention anything about her son-inw.


    That made Ste very curious because Olivia was never a low-profile person.


    She would want to brag just about anything that she thought was good. So, she found it very strange


    that Olivia never talked about him.


    Ste was actually looking forward to this wedding.


    Ste had nned to go with Vermont. She figured that Vermont, being a social butterfly, must have


    known a thing or two about the wedding.


    However, when Keegan returned from work, he said he wanted to go with her.


    After Vermont found out about it, he immediately told Keegan to pick up him and Felicity. He intended


    to save money on fuel for his car.


    While they were on their way to the wedding, Ste got curious again and asked Vermont about Olivia’s


    son-inw.


    is really something.”


    Ste immediately became interested. “Tell me about him.”


    Felicity leaned over too. After all, everyone loved to gossip.


    indulges in vice. He used to work in the national tax department, but he was caught soliciting


    prostitution. His parents went to great lengths to cover it up.


    take care of his health. About a year after things had quieted down, his parents got him a job in the


    tobo industry through their connections.”


    Felicity made a disgusted expression. “Eww, a whoremonger.”


    Ste finally knew why Olivia would not talk about him.


    Vermont continued, “He really has it easy. There’s not much for him to do, yet he’s paid very well. But,


    no matter how good the job is, it still doesn’t change the fact that he’s an irresponsible person.


    He kept cking off at work and missed out on two promotions because he wouldn’t stop skipping


    work.


    “While others had to work their asses off to get a promotion, all he needed to do was show up at work


    on time.


    Unfortunately, that was something that he found difficult to do. His family has held significant official


    positions for two generations. If he had put in a bit of effort, he would’ve achieved great things. But, he


    got addicted to that kind of stuff.”


    Vermont gestured, and everyone understood what he meant.


    Ricky was a drug addict.


    “His family got fed up and locked him at home for rehabilitation. But, it’s not easy to quit that kind of


    stuff, especially for someone like him who has zero self control. So, after being locked up for a while,


    he was released. Then, something even more outrageous happened.


    “His family purposely hired a doctor to administer daily injections for him to ensure that he wouldn’t


    have an episode in public. He might look like a normal person, but he has ruined his own body. He


    can’t even perform sexual intercourse. His parents knew that he was hopeless, so they wanted to have


    a “A lot of people know about this in their social circle. I have no idea why Erick would agree to marry


    off his precious daughter to such a mess.”
