My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！ - Chapter 345
Chapter 344
Keira snorted coldly. Before she could speak, Mary slammed her glass onto the table, producing a loud bang.
….
She looked at her mother and said, “Keera and I agreed to be each other’s bridesmaids at our weddings, Mom. If you won’t let her be my bridesmaid, fine, then I won’t be a bride either.”
These words startled her mother instantly. “Mary, you… that’s not what I mean… I just think that maybe Keera doesn’t want to do it anymore. After all, in the bridesmaids group, her status is a bit awkward… What if it causes unpleasant emotions later? What do we do?”
She muttered, “I don’t have any other intentions; I’m just thinking of your best interests. Besides, Mary, you think you’re doing Keera a favor, but is it really good for her? You want her to stand alongside the legitimate daughters of the five major families as your bridesmaid. Do you really think she’d be comfortable?”
Upon hearing this, Mary subconsciously looked toward Keira.
Keera had always been timid from a young age. Back then, when she tried to pull Keera into the circle of wealthy families to socialize, Keera refused because she wasn’t used to it.
Mary understood then that people from different circles shouldn’t be forced to mingle.
There was no need for Keera to grovel and curry favor with anyone…
So even though her mother’s words had ulterior motives, Mary still started to worry.
The next moment, they heard “Keera” say indifferently, “Auntie, you’re overthinking it. How could I not be comfortable to be Mary’s bridesmaid?”
That made Mary burst into laughter instantly.
Seeing her so oblivious, Mary’s mother also smiled awkwardly. “Well, that’s fine then. I’m just worried about you. As long as everything is okay, just remember to bear with it if those legitimate daughters give you a hard time at the wedding. After all, it’s Mary’s wedding. Let’s not have any trouble.”
Keira’s reply was cheerful and full of laughter. “Okay.”
Feeling snubbed, Mary’s mother turned and left.
When she was out the door, her husband saw her and asked, “How did it go?”
Mary’s mother sneered. “She’s got such a commoner’s air about her! I bet she just wants to use the role to network with more people! Mary is actually indulging her.”
Mary’s father frowned. “Isn’t she overestimating herself? Being with so many high-status individuals, isn’t she afraid she won’t be able to hold her own?”
Mary’s mother huffed. “I’ve warned her, but your precious daughter won’t listen. She’s too protective!”
Mary’s father sighed, “Well then, let it be. If she wants to go, she can go. Just hope she doesn’t make a scene and disgrace us!”
With that, the two of them left, discussing.
…
It was soon the day of Mary and Ellis’s wedding.
After washing up, Keira went out.
She saw a well-known makeup team enter the Davis residence, and the entire villa came alive at that moment, with servants bustling about.
The guards opened the big gates, and bridesmaids from other families came early.
From the window, she saw Victoria get out of a car, surrounded by household servants, arriving upstairs.
One by one, the bridesmaids continued to arrive.
Keira immediately spotted Rebecca, who was personally sent over by Frankie. Rebecca almost stumbled as she stepped out of the car.
Outside.
Mary, already in a long dress, was called by the makeup artists to the neighboring room for her makeup. Before leaving, she said to the head makeup artist, “The others haven’t arrived yet, so have your team start doing makeup for my friend Keera first.”
“Of course, Miss Davis.”
With a makeup team, there was certainly more than one artist. Today, they sent over half a dozen.
Six bridesmaids and one bride—seven people in total. Each person had their own makeup artist, and no one would interrupt another.
Therefore, Mary didn’t give it much thought and reminded “Keera” to remember her makeup appointment before she left with the makeup artist to the next room.
The bride’s makeup was, of course, the most important task of the day, which was expected to take two and a half hours.
After they had left, a makeup artist approached Keira. “Miss South, right? Let me do your makeup.”
“Sure.”
Keira followed her to another reception room.
Before long, Victoria also arrived, and upon seeing Keira, she immediately curled her lip in disdain.
The unmarried daughters of the Davis family’s main branch had also come, and as they gathered to greet each other, someone glanced at Keira and whispered.
“What is Mary thinking? With our status, we’re here to be bridesmaids to elevate her position, and now she’s brought in such a low-status bridesmaid to insult us?”
Victoria put on a fake, scheming smile. “I heard that Miss South and Miss Mary get along very well…”
“Get along? I think she’s just a schemer. She’s got Mary so wrapped up that Mary can’t tell north from south. Didn’t Mary recently invest in a project because of her? Mary almost got dragged down with it, and she still hasn’t seen the light!”
“I truly don’t understand what charm this woman has. What tricks she’s used to have Mary so utterly fooled that she’d do something so foolish!”
While they were talking, Rebecca appeared at the doorway.
As soon as she appeared, everyone immediately turned to look at her and quickly surrounded her.
“Rebecca, you’re here!”
“How are you feeling?”
“Can you make it through today? If you feel unwell, let us know.”
They all knew that Frankie had a sister complex and that Rebecca was doted on in the Allen family.
The Davis family wasn’t short of daughters, so they treated the daughters quite indifferently.
Although Victoria was a daughter of the Olsen family, her status was naturally lower due to being adopted.
Moreover, with Frankie being unmarried, Rebecca naturally became the center of attention as soon as she arrived.
Rebecca had never liked this kind of social interaction, and she still didn’t.
She nodded, intending to find a quiet place to sit by herself, but when she turned her head, she caught sight of a familiar figure and immediately halted.
Then, she cried out, “Keera? What are you doing here?!”
Keira immediately frowned.
She pursed her lips and sighed softly, looking at her. “Miss Allen…”
Rebecca’s eyes instantly reddened, fixing a deathly stare on Keira.
Why was this woman lingering like a bad spirit?
Was she trying to take all the attention from Miss Keira?
No!
Rebecca absolutely would not allow it!
The people around her became aware that something was off.
“Miss Allen must feel that being a bridesmaid with her is beneath her status, right?”
“Exactly, some people just don’t recognize their own standing. To think they are fit to be with us…”
“Miss South, I see Miss Allen has some objections to you; perhaps you should leave first?”
As Keira listened to these words, she raised an eyebrow but remained in her seat.
Tina, the legitimate daughter from the Davis family’s first branch, then approached Keira. “Miss South, as you can see, no one here welcomes you. Perhaps you should leave first.”
