Chapter 491

But as the saying went, one attracted what one feared.

An intoxicated man clambered up onto the table in one of the corners. He started dancing while belting a strange folk song. His bizarre behavior frightened the other guests seated at the same table so much that they abandoned their seats and ran away from him.

At another table, a man started wailing and confessing his love for Rose, turning the scene even more chaotic.

The music system also started acting up. First, a sad love song began to play on the speakers before a dirge came on and took its place.

The haunting music reverberated around the grand hall, making the guests glance at Shawn and Rose in pity. Anyone who stumbled upon the scene might even mistake the wedding for a funeral procession.

Shawn was incensed and no longer had the patience to put up with the guests who were suddenly acting crazy. The entire wedding had descended into chaos. He ordered one of the staff to find out who dared to play a dirge at his wedding, swearing that he would not show mercy on the perpetrator.

Seeing how the wedding had spiralled completely out of control, Rose was overwhelmed with fury. She trembled violently before tears finally spilled from her eyes. Shawn's and Rose's parents were doing their best to appease the guests, trying to pretend that nothing out of the ordinary was happening.

Leo's phone began to ring amidst the chaos. Yohann had arrived in the vicinity, but he couldn't find the exact place where the wedding was being held. Thus, he had called Leo to ask for his help.

"How useless can this fucker be? He can't even find this place," Leo cursed as he left the private booth to meet up with Yohann.

Jack also returned to the private room temporarily, waiting for the next show to begin. At the same moment, Sunny brought Cain with her into the private room.

Cain had initially brought Sunny with him to attend Shawn's wedding. It was a coincidence that her class reunion was being held at the same place, so Sunny decided to drag Cain with her to have a toast with everyone.

The truth was that Sunny just wanted to show off what an amazing boyfriend she had managed to land. Cain wore a grim expression the entire time. Shawn had been humiliated in front of so many people, which meant Cain had also been humiliated by association.

As Sunny dragged Cain around to toast her old classmates, he kept his nose pointed high up in the air. He did not care to mingle with these lowly villagers.

Meanwhile in the grand hall, the dirge finally came to an end. Shawn wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a sigh of relief. A group of women went up to the stage and began their dance performance.

After a few moments, Shawn finally regained his calm. With Rose in tow, the two of them trailed behind their parents as they went around the hall to greet and give a toast to their relatives. Just as Shawn thought that things were finally back on track, the music that was floating from the stage suddenly changed.

A timid-looking man had climbed onto the stage with a microphone in his hand. He was smiling cheerily as he said, "My dear audience, please enjoy our next dance titled, 'Spring's Rapture.'"

He threw the microphone aside after he was done speaking and quickly ran off the stage. The grand hall descended into chaos once more, no one had managed to get a good look at the man who had been on the stage.

Suddenly, a video was projected onto the massive screen on the stage. In the video, two naked bodies writhed against each other on the bed, punctuated by occasional moans and groans.

A few seconds passed before the guests realized what they were looking at. Everyone shared the same thought. How could such an indecent act be broadcasted during a wedding?

Shawn, Rose, and their parents were frozen on the spot. If Jackson and his men's earlier disturbance was considered to be a coincidence, this particular incident was definitely premeditated. Someone held a grudge against the Corts and were dead set on carrying out their revenge.

What surprised everyone the most was the appearance of the man in the video. Although the man had his back to the camera, just from his stature, one could easily see how similar his silhouette was to Shawn.
