Chapter 411 The Bride's Revenge Finished
To everyone's astonishment, Lucius was seen getting cozy with various women, completely unconcerned about being photographed. Some images showed him casually shopping with a model, others depicted him sipping tea with a young starlet, and there were even pictures of him vacationing by the beach with a few influencers.
It was like dropping a bombshell!
It made people's imaginations run wild.
In an instant, the lively atmosphere of clinking glasses and cheerful conversations fell into a stunned silence.
Not a single person spoke in the ample banquet hall.
The soft music playing in the background felt strangely out of place.
The next moment, Lucius became aware of what was happening. His expression changed dramatically, and his pupils contracted in shock.
He rushed inside like madman and shouted, "Stop! Who displayed those photos? Change them now
If one listened closely, they could hear the barely concealed panic in his voice.
No one responded.
The photos continued to roll on the screen, exposing the ugly truth hidden beneath the facade of his happy life-revealing the truth he had been fooling himself about.
The veil of decency that covered this wedding was forcibly pulled away, forcing everyone to witness this embarrassing display.
The guests had come to celebrate Lucius's remarriage, but the reality was starkly different; their well wishes turned into nothing more than a cruel joke.
Desperately, Lucius ran towards the backstage, ignoring everyone around him. His only concern was that Lila wouldn't see this disgraceful scene.
Before he could reach the back of the stage, gasps erupted from the crowd again.
Turning around, he saw a red carpet laid out in front of the electronic screen. Suddenly, a number of women appeared, each wearing different styles of exquisite wedding dresses. They looked stunning, parading as if they were on a runway, each showcasing their dresses with pride.
What shocked everyone was that these were the same women from the giant screen.
Anyone watching found the scene utterly unbelievable.
As Lucius recognized those women, his face went pale, the color draining from it.
His fear and anxiety permeated every aspect of his being, a palpable sensation encircling his core. He sensed that anything could happen at any moment.

When he saw the scene, he felt as if the shoes had finally dropped.
Finished
He wished he could bleed out from every orifice and die already, but all he could do was stare wide-eyed, his body trembling in shock.
Countless strange gazes were fixed on the groom of the lay.
Just moments before, he had been filled with confidence; now, he looked disheveled and defeated.
In a mere few seconds, he dashed towards the group like crazy, grabbing one of the women fiercely, his voice shaking with anger.
"Who sent you here? Who instructed you to come?"
That woman panicked, unable to break free; her lips sealed tight.
Lucius's face darkened with fury. He had forgotten all semblance of gentlemanly conduct; he struck her with a swift slap and shouted, "Get out! All of you, get out!" Those women showed no intention of leaving. They continued to walk back and forth on the red carpet.
Lucius was on the verge of a breakdown, barely holding it together. Gritting his teeth, he grabbed another woman and demanded, "Tell me, who sent you here?" The atmosphere was chillingly cold.
At the same time, it hummed with chaotic energy.
From the backstage, a figure slowly emerged. In a gentle, calm voice, she said, "It was me."
The bride, now out of her wedding gown, wore a simple navy blue dress that felt outdated and out of place.
She stood there, smiling at Lucius, but her eyes held no warmth.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Lucius's expression shifted sharply, a flicker of panic and shock crossing his face.
He felt as though all of his strength had vanished.
He suddenly recognized that Lila had worn that very same old navy dress on the day she was sent to the Browns.
At that time, he had mocked her for being a country bumpkin, trying to climb the social ladder, a worldly yet vulgar woman.
All those memories flooded back; he had married her out of obligation to his grandfather but had treated her with scorn and disdain, never viewing her as an equal.
He believed that during that period, he had been the worst ex-husband imaginable.
He used his power behind the scenes to drive her family into bankruptcy as a form of retaliation for her
arrival.
Finally, she had agreed to the divorce.

Chapter 411 The Bride's Revenge
Finished
In just a month, Lucius had chanced upon Lila working in a restaurant, a stark contrast to the pampered lady she had been at the Browns.
He found it unsettling to see her, once so well taken care of, now serving others with a forced smile.
Lucius offered to remarry her as if it were a charitable act. Surprisingly, she agreed in just a few tries.
It seemed like she still had feelings for him.
He promised himself to treat her better this time.
But now...
Lila approached him, her gaze colder than ice, a chill radiating from her.
Lucius stood frozen; his mouth opened, but no words came out.
Lila closed the distance one step after another and stopped just several feet away.
A sweet smile graced her face, but it held no kindness.
"Lucius, they are all your former lovers. How could you not invite them to your wedding?"
