"Huh?"
Daniel was surprised.
"Nothing." Alice smiled, she did not know if William was comforting Holy, "Have the guests been settled down yet? Prepare some gifts and send them over."
They had all come to attend the wedding ceremony, no one expected such a situation.
Instead of attending the wedding ceremony, they saw a violent incident.
"I'll get it done." Daniel nodded. Alice was still wearing the white wedding dress, and Daniel could not help but say: "What a good wedding, what a pity!"
"It doesn't matter." Alice was quite open-minded about this, and said with a smile, "As long as everyone is fine, that's good, the rest isn't important."
"That makes sense." Daniel said, there was nothing more important than letting everyone be safe, "The wedding can be delayed, I will tidy up this place first."
"Thank you, foster father." Alice said, she turned and walked inside while taking off all the accessories on her head. Just as she was about to change clothes, she heard the maid come over to report that Kathy had woken up.
After Alice handed the accessories to the maid, she quickly walked into Kathy's room. Kathy lay on the bed and looked at the chandelier with her eyes wide open.
"Kathy."
Alice walked in.
Upon seeing Alice, Kathy immediately sat up from the bed, her eyes were filled with tears. She extended her hand out, "Mom."
Alice sat on the bed and Kathy immediately threw herself into her embrace, leaning into her embrace as her little head rubbed against her skin.
"It's alright, Kathy. Don't cry, don't cry. Be good."
Alice understood that her daughter had also received a huge shock this time, she reached out to pat her back.
"Mom, there's a bad guy trying to hurt big brother. I'm so scared." Kathy said while crying, her small hands grabbed the wedding dress that Alice was wearing, "Dad doesn't want my brother anymore, he wants the bad guy to kill my brother."
William's words scared the two children. Alice patted her daughter's back and said, "The bad guy has already been kicked away, Kathy doesn't need to be afraid."
She didn't want to tell her daughter that the bad guy was dead, it was better for children to understand the meaning of life and death later.
"What about my brother?" Kathy raised her head to look at her and cried as she asked, "I don't want Big Brother to die, Mom, I don't want Big Brother to die, I'll make him my big brother from now on."
She was scared.
She didn't even dare to ask. She had just woken up and couldn't see Holy.
"Holy's fine, too." Alice consoled her, "Didn't Ariza tell you?"
Kathy sat on the bed, her chubby little hands wiped her face as she choked with sobs, "I was afraid that Ariza had lied to me, I didn't even see my brother, could he be dead?"
It was only then that Alice realized that Kathy also thought too much.
"Holy is really alright. Kathy, should I take you to see your brother?" Alice said.
Hearing that, Kathy cried as she nodded her head, she got down the bed to follow her.
"Kathy, are you alright?"
An anxious voice came over as Elizabeth walked in accompanied by a few maids. Her face looked much more haggard and when Kathy saw her, she ran over while crying, "Grandmother."
"Kathy." Elizabeth squatted down and pulled Kathy into her embrace, sizing her up. Her eyes were filled with worry. "I heard that you were also there at that time, are you injured?"
"I wasn't." Kathy shook her head as she cried, her small hands continuously rubbed her eyes. She obediently said, "Mom said that Holy is still alive and well."
"Yes, Grandmother understands. Grandmother is going to visit him. Come, let's go together."
Elizabeth pulled Kathy's hand and left.
Hearing that, Alice stood up and was about to leave as well. Elizabeth glanced back at her, then coldly said as her she looked at her torn wedding dress, "You don't need to follow me, quickly change your clothes!"
With that, Elizabeth left with Kathy.
Alice stood there baffled. Was she scolded? Why? What had she done wrong?
After Elizabeth left, Alice returned to her room and changed the wedding dress. She did not like to be bound, so she took out a long and loose sweater and put it on.
She walked towards the wedding dress. The pure white wedding dress had been torn by her. There was some grass on it, making it look extremely miserable.
This was the wedding dress she was supposed to wear for the ceremony.
Seeing that, Alice bit her lips and knelt down in front of Elizabeth.
Following her kneeling, William's eyes became even colder and waited for Elizabeth's next words.
"Since you've already called me mother, I naturally have the right to discipline you." Elizabeth sat on the sofa and spoke coldly, "Look at what you have done. From the moment you started a relationship with William, when did you honor Cullen Family?"
As Kathy and Holy sat together, Kathy was so scared by the rage on Elizabeth's face that she didn't dare to move an inch. Holy glanced at William opposite him and also didn't say anything.
The rest of the servants looked at Alice. The noble young lady was not easy to be.
"I don't know what I did wrong."
Alice said as she knelt on the ground and looked at Elizabeth with a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
Under the dim light, Elizabeth sneered, "Don't know what you did wrong? Your engagement is a farce, and your marriage has even become a kidnapping, all because of Mona and you fighting with each other."
Alice knelt there in silence. She did not make a sound, but her eyes were filled with stubborness.
Speaking of Mona, if they did not arrange for William's blind date at the beginning, there would be nothing wrong.
The Butterfly Effect, everybody knew it.
Thinking about it this way, Alice still did not say it out loud. Today, Elizabeth also suffered from shock and needed to vent out her feelings.
Endure it, for William's sake, she had to endure "Do you think I'm wrong?" Seeing her expression, Elizabeth knew that she was not lectured, and could not help but say coldly, "In this period of time, I was no picky about something you have done, but it doesn't mean you are right. Today, I will tell you about your mistakes."
Alice kneeled down and did not say anything, but her face was pale.
"How much did you learn from learning etiquette in Cullen Family?" Elizabeth asked, "Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, you do not know that your son has been kidnapped. Right in front of everyone, you were crying and hesitating, not willing to immediately commit suicide to save your own son. Also, after everything is over, you are still wearing that torn wedding dress and walked around, how many people saw it? Do you know that you will become the laughingstock of our clan if you continue to act like this? "
Alice's fingers grabbed her arm hard.
"I told you before, when you marry into the Cullen Family, there is only one thing you need to do. You have to give up everything for the glory of the Cullen Family, but your performance really disappointed me! How are you going to stand shoulder to shoulder with William like this? How can we rely on you two to shoulder the burden of Cullen Family's future?"
The Cullen Family would only collapse in their hands.
Elizabeth's words were very clear, Alice had not reached the level that a young mistress should have. She did not immediately know about her son's situation, did not immediately commit suicide, and she even wore a ruined wedding dress to go around.
