The day after tomorrow arrived in the blink of an eye.
Cecilia and Nathaniel attended Magnus' wedding as promised.
Cecilia originally thought there wouldn't be many people in the hotel, but as soon as they arrived at the entrance, they saw many wealthy businessmen had also come.
Puzzled, she asked, "Why are there so many people here? Is someone else having a wedding?"
The moment she and Nathaniel got out of the car, Philip came straight to greet them.
"Ms. Smith, Mr. Rainsworth, you really came!" Philip exclaimed.
"What do you mean?" Cecilia frowned.
"Oh, Mr. Smith said that both you and Mr. Rainsworth would attend his wedding, so I specially waited at the door to welcome you." Philip extended his hand, adding, "Please come in, both of you. Let me know if anything is not up to par."
After hearing what Philip said, Cecilia understood everything.
It turned out that Magnus was using her and Nathaniel as tools to network with wealthy figures.
"So that's why he asked you to come along; he's got a big reputation now," Cecilia said.
Nathaniel held her hand. "Shall we go back?"
Cecilia was considering going back to teach Magnus a lesson when two familiar figures appeared in the distance.
"Cecilia?" The person who spoke was Eloise, and standing with her was Heather.
At the sight of Cecilia, Heather recalled the times Cecilia had caused her trouble and couldn't help but frown. "Why is she here, too?"
Eloise dared not speak ill of Cecilia in front of her and Nathaniel, so she said, "Magnus must have invited her. After all, she is the adopted daughter of the Smith family, and she's Magnus' older sister. It would look bad if she didn't attend Magnus' wedding."
"At least she has some conscience," Heather remarked.
Their voices were not soft, perhaps because they still thought Cecilia's hearing was poor and thus she wouldn't be able to hear them.
