Chapter 438 Michelle Was So Cool


    On January 23rd


    It was the wedding day of John and Vivian.


    Last night, the snow did not let up, falling until dawn broke. All of Lexingport City—buildings, roofs,


    road, and cars—was covered with pristine nkets of white snow.


    It should be a quiet and peaceful morning, but today was the day of John''s second marriage.


    Hordes of onlookers were waiting to witness what was starting to be called as "the wedding of the


    century."


    No one knew who leaked the scale of grandness of today''s wedding, and it didn''t matter—people


    who had nothing better to do were bound to look forward to it.


    There were those who had business connections with the Shi family but didn''t receive invitations to


    the event. This subset of people did not feel slighted or angry at not being invited, but instead


    watchfully stood on the sidelines.


    The general mood outside the ce was chaotic, but no big news filtered out from the inside. There


    must be a problem.


    The wedding attracted massive attention.


    Vivian felt it, too. A bone-deep intuition that told her that something was not quite right. Instead of


    reassuring her, the outpouring of blessings and expectations from all over the Inte made her


    even more nervous.


    The make-up artist assisted her in putting on her bridal make-up and wedding dress. People flitted


    around her, but Vivian didn''t say much during the entire preparation process—she was just like a


    marite being manipted to their satisfaction.


    Seeing the thin material of Vivian''s wedding dress, Julie remarked with concern, "Vivi, isn''t it too


    cold for you to wear it like this? This dress is long. Do you want to wear warm pants inside? Your


    exposed shoulder should also be covered with a pretty, warm shawl. What do you think?"


    Vivian didn''t reply.


    "Vivi?" Julie waved a hand in front of Vivian''s eyes, but there was no respond. She had to shake


    her. "Vivi! What are you thinking about?"


    "What?" Vivian was finally pulled out of her reverie.


    Julie''s face fell. "You look so upset. People who don''t know you might think that you are going to


    attend a funeral. You should smile today. It is your wedding day."


    Vivian forced a smile, but it was too stiff. There was something on her mind. Julie could see that,


    and she asked the others to get out of the room.


    When there were only the two of them left, Julie sat down beside her. "Tell me, what are you worried


    about? Are you worried that Chester would expose the bug in the ne? Don''t worry. He won''t


    show up at the wedding today."


    "What did you do to him?" Vivian''s eyes clouded over with anxiety. "Just take the ne back. He


    is just a kid, so he won''t be able to do anything to me as long as I deny it. If anything happens to


    him, the Shi family won''t let me go."


    "Don''t worry, Vivi. I know what I''m doing." Julieforted Vivian, but her words failed to ease


    Vivian''s anxiety.


    "Mom, I always feel uneasy. I have this feeling that something would happen and that the wedding


    would be ruined."


    "Bite your tongue! Don''t say such bad words." Julie threw her a stern re. "That''s just wedding


    jitters. You''re too suspicious so you can''t get through the worry in your heart.


    Look, Chester has disappeared for more than an hour, but no one in Shi family is anxious, which


    means that no one knows. No one will find it strange if Chester appears again after this afternoon."


    "Well, that''s good." The words worked this time around. After taking a few deep breaths, Vivian


    finally shed a smile.


    The Shi family was not rmed by Chester''s absence because when James was at the airport to


    fetch the child, Chester called him to say that he went back earlier.


    The Shi family members were quite busy on this day. After all, the media would be present today.


    They didn''t really pay attention to Chester.

    Besides, Chester was a reassuring child.


    Instead of going to Mist Water Park, James headed to Michelle''s house because his fiancee was


    there.


    Tomorrow was Lunar New Year''s Eve, so Adams and ine also came back. They sat in the living


    room, watching news reports and reading newspapers.


    As she munched on an apple, Emma kept ncing at Michelle''s room.


    "Is Mimi okay? How long has it been?" James settled down beside Emma and took a bite of the


    apple in Emma''s hand every once in a while.


    Emma held up her index finger. "It''s been an hour or thereabouts. She hasn''te out yet."


    "What is she doing inside? What is taking her an hour?" James was fully aware how angry Michelle


    was with his uncle, but why did she lock herself in her room? If she was angry, she should crash the


    wedding and make a scene.


    Emma shook her head, not knowing the answer. "You can ask Auntie."


    "Auntie, what is Mimi doing inside?" James turned to ask ine.


    Worry was apparent on ine''s face. "She went shopping yesterday and bought a lot of things. She


    said that she would use them on today''s wedding, but she didn''t get an invitation. Even if she


    wanted to seek justice for Nina, she wouldn''t be able to get in."


    "Don''t worry, Auntie, I''ll bring Mimi there myself," James said with an amused snicker. "I can''t wait to


    see how Mimi will ruin Uncle John''s wedding."


    Emma gave her betrothed a gentle, doting smile. "We''ll go and watchter."


    "You kids..." ine murmured, not knowing whether she should stop them or support them.


    She didn''t know the whole story, so she couldn''t judge it at face value.


    Even so, she couldn''t stop her daughter from making such a fuss.


    "Ha-ha..." A sudden burst ofughter resounded from Michelle''s room, attracting everyone''s


    attention.


    Michelle sashayed out of the room, and everyone stared at her. She wore Doc Martens footwear,


    ck high-waisted trousers, and suspenders. On both sides of the trousers were tworge pockets,


    which bulged slightly.


    To finish off the ensemble, she wore a ck cropped sweater and a light gray pea coat. Michelle


    was 1.55 meters tall, but the waistline made her look 1.6 meters.


    With the two centimeters added by her high ponytail, she looked 1.62 meters tall from afar.


    She had put on make-up with high arched eyebrows and dark lipstick. The entire look screamed


    arrogance and anger.


    "Holy crap!" James was so shocked that he shot up to his feet. "Mimi, you''re so cool! You must have


    learned that cold, intimidating style from Aunt Nina!"


    Emma started at her in astonishment. She didn''t expect the cute Michelle to turn into a kickass girl.


    "Mimi, are you going to snatch the bridegroom for Nina?"


    "Of course not." Michelle''s soft voice did not suit her cold appearance, and it looked like she


    suddenly shrank by half.


    She bent down and swept out a toy pistol from her pocket with a flourish. Then, she proceeded to


    load the toy gun with consummate skill.


    "I''m heading to the wedding venue to blow it up to vent Nini''s anger."


    The others stared at her admiringly. "You look like a pro. Do you y with toy guns often?"


    "Yeah. I always go to the amusement park to y with them. I''m pretty good at it. I used to get a lot


    of prizes." Indeed, Michelle''s posture looked like the standard. She scanned the surroundings.


    "Don''t aim at me. That thing can disfigure my face." The corner of James'' mouth twitched. "Are you


    going to blow up the wedding just with this? Keep on dreaming."


    Emma smiled. "Mimi, you have other tricks up your sleeve, right?"
