Harold thought carefully and realized that this made sense. Standing around with the whole family here would only bring more embarrassment. It would be better to return home and figure out the reason later. Just as he was about to suggest leaving, he noticed Bonnie’s adoptive parents heading toward the main entrance, carrying large bags that appeared to be filled with local specialties. Harold’s face immediately showed disdain.”How dare these country bumpkins show up here? They’re making a fool of themselves!”Upon hearing this, the rest of the Shepard family followed Harold’s gaze and saw Gerald and his wife. They joined in the mockery.”Do they think bringing a few bags of their local products to a wedding banquet will allow them to freeload? Aren’t they afraid the guards will toss them out like garbage?”Trina, seeing this, quickly covered her face and tried to hide behind the Shepard family members. She thought the last thing she wanted was for Gerald and his wife to recognize her in such a grand event. Otherwise, she’d indeed be ridiculed along with them. Ads by PubFuture
Fernanda noticed Trina’s actions and sarcastically remarked, “Trina, those are your biological parents. Aren’t you going to greet them? What are you hiding for? Afraid of losing face?”Grinding her molars, Trina looked at Fernanda with a hint of anger. “Fernanda! Can you shut up?!””Oh? You don’t even acknowledge your parents, and I’m not allowed to comment?” Fernanda sneered, wanting to say more, but Grant intervened.”Alright, Fernanda, that’s enough! If we get embarrassed because of you, Grandpa will surely reprimand you when we get back!”Fernanda begrudgingly restrained herself and gave Trina a heavy snort before turning her attention away.

Standing beside Harold, Briggs listened to their exchange and looked at Gerald and his wife mockingly. “Harold, you all seem quite familiar with these bumpkins. You must have quite a connection, huh?”Harold’s face changed instantly, andhe quickly distanced himself. “Us,Content belongs to NôvelDrama.Orghave a connection with those bumpkins? Do you think that’s possible? We’ve just seen them a few times by chance. We’re only discussing their audacity to show up at such an event!” Briggs joined the discussion by sensing the underlying relationship but not exposing it. “Exactly, Harold is right. They are truly shameless. Anyone with half a brain would know the Knight family would never entertain people like them. They look so impoverished yet dare to come here? They’re just asking for humiliation. I can’t wait to see the guards throw them out!” inHarold looked again at Gerald and his wife with contempt. “I bet the moment the guards see them, they be thrown out with all their stuff. They’re only standing there now because the guards haven’t noticed them yet.” Briggs nodded in agreement. “Harold, you’re right! Look, they’re almost at the entrance. If nothing goes wrong, they should be thrown out in about five seconds. Let’s wait and watch the show!”The crowd stood by, eager to witness Gerald’s family get humiliated. However, what happened next left everyone dumbfounded!
