Tangled By Fate Chapter 430

Chapter 430: THE WEDDING

On one peaceful day, Sebastian barged into the room and reported, “Mistress, Vincent didn’t cancel the wedding. He decided to marry Betty.”

“He gave up?!” Veronica hung her head. “I overestimated him.”

She was in Arthur’s room, working for Ovior.

At first, she was using Catherine’s space in Ovior’s office. However, Arthur kept coming to et her from ti to ti and flirted with her in front of a single dude like Ovior.

Although Ironin was unaffected by the whole thing, Ovior couldn’t stand it. To kick out Arthur from his room, he had to kick out Veronica as well.

Thus, Arthur set a table and a chair for her. She started working there. Whenever he raised his head, he would see her working with a serious expression.

Seeing her so close to him, he was delighted.

.....

Vincent’s news was what he expected. As a man, he knew a man’s character just by looking at them.

Veronica was too forgiving and soft-hearted. She still thought that man would have a chance if he begged properly.

Seeing his wife disappointed, he remarked, “A jerk will be a jerk. There is nothing to be surprised about.”

He walked toward his wife and sat at the table. While stroking her back, he gently asked, “What do you want to do?”

“What else can we do? Cathy already said she won’t be doing anything. She’d rather forgive and forget. Since she wants that, I will respect her wish,” Veronica said.

Her expression told them that she was not satisfied with the outco.

“That’s not all, Mistress,” Sebastian added. “Vincent even spread rumors about... Miss Catherine. He lied to everyone saying she was cheating on him and when he found out, he was heartbroken. That’s when Betty comforted him. That’s why he decided to marry Betty.”

Veronica blankly stared at him. “...He.... Did.... What?”

Sebastian lowered his head. He surpassed his anger and continued, “He spread malicious rumors. Not only him, but also his mother badmouthed... Miss Catherine to the guests and their relatives. His father stayed quiet. But everyone who had a good impression on her, they are now talking badly of her.”

A blue vein popped on Veronica’s temple. “Is that so? Then, I must let everyone know who the bad person is here, don’t I?”

The corner of Arthur’s lips rose. “You can do whatever you want,” he encouraged her.

———-

On the day of the wedding, Vincent was checking himself in front of the mirror one last ti.

He was wearing a white tailored coat, shirt and pants. His dirty blonde hair was brushed backward. There was a white rose in his chest pocket.

Checking the knot of his tie one last ti, he pressed his hand on his chest.

It was supposed to be a happy day but he felt a dull pain in his chest.

‘Catherine, I loved you but you left with no choice. You will regret not choosing .’

He went out of the house and saw the decorations. Relatives and guests were swarming. They saw him coming out. They smiled at him happily and congratulated him.

So of them looked at him in pity and sympathy.

“Poor him. Vincent is such a good man but look at his luck. His fiancée betrayed him. The girl is too stupid to leave a guy like him.”

“She was all about looks. I knew she had sothing wrong with her personality.”

“Working won are always immoral and complicated. It was a good thing that Vincent found out before their marriage. What would happen if she was pregnant with a bastard child?”

“A city girl is sly. She cannot be a good fit for a simple-minded guy like Vincent.”

She worked in the palace I heard? I wonder how she got the job. With her looks, she could easily get any job just by spreading her legs.”

“I’m sure she is already pregnant. That’s why they called the wedding off.”

“I think Betty is a nice girl. Even Vincent’s mother likes her.”

“She is a sweet girl. She always talks to us with a sweet, friendly smile. Just staying near her makes feel better.”

“She is careful and caring. She will be a good housewife. Unlike Catherine.”

“Yes, a working girl cannot be a good housewife. They only go after money. Who knows what they do to earn so coins.”

Vincent could hear all the malicious words about Catherine. He felt bitter.

‘See, Catherine? If you married today, none of these things would happen. Everyone would praise you. no one would badmouth you. In any case, this ti, you lost. I’ll see how you get married after hurting like this.’

Betty ca out wearing a white gown. Her head was decorated with flowers. Everything that was for Catherine, she wore all.

The dress was slightly altered as she had a baby bump. She had to buy another pair of shoes as Catherine’s feet were shorter than hers.

With a sweet smile, she looked at the guests and then Vincent. Everybody’s admiring gaze made her content.

‘Veronica, look at this. What belonged to your friend, I took them all. Husband, family, relatives, wedding, gown, flowers, everything belongs to now. Your friend will get nothing. Do you still have ti to regret it?’

With a pleased expression, she stood beside Vincent.

“You look beautiful,” he praised her.

“Thank you.” Betty gave him a loving gaze.

Vincent stared at her for a while and suddenly saw Catherine in her. He imagined how gorgeous she would look if she was wearing the dress now.

After all, the dress was chosen by Catherine. She loved flowers and that’s why they arrange the wedding in spring.

She also wished the wedding to be held here. She wanted to attract the attention of the custors with the wedding.

Vincent looked away as he didn’t want to think of her anymore.

‘Whatever happened, happened. There is no way I will have any regrets. I wanted to marry her but she rejected . This grand wedding was supposed to be hers. She is a fool to say ‘no’ to this.’

The priest already started the ceremony. The wedding ended in no ti.

It was the ti for the bride to throw the flowers.

“Ready everyone?” Betty excitedly looked at the crowd.

“Yes!” the ladies shouted.

Betty turned around and threw the flowers at the ladies.

When soone caught it, others began to clap. But then suddenly, they all beca quiet.

The unusual silence made Betty curious. She turned around to see what was wrong but then her entire body froze.

The bouquet of white roses was caught by none other than Catherine.

She was wearing a pink gown with golden dust all over the dress. A perfect party gown for a wedding reception party.

Everyone stared at the glamorous beauty. They didn’t expect her arrival.

Betty looked at Vincent. Noticing that he was also watching the uninvited guest in awe, she beca envious.

‘What does he see in that bitch’s face? She is nothing.’

She pulled Vincent’s sleeve. “Husband, why is she here? Does she want to ruin the wedding?”

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Vincent pulled her closer.

“Don’t worry about her. We are already married. What can she do now? You have our child in your stomach. I won’t ever leave you.”

Although he seed worried, he was pleased.

His self-esteem hit rock bottom when Catherine rejected him. He slowly beca confident after lying to people about Catherine.

The more people badmouthed her, the better he felt.

Now that she dolled up and ca to the wedding, he was sure that she ca to snatch him away from Betty.

He felt proud thinking two won would fight over him.

Hiding his happiness, he stepped forward.

He calmly said, “Catherine, what do you want? If you want to make trouble, I request you clear your head and go away.”

Catherine crossed her arms. “Why would I want to make trouble? Can’t I attend the wedding as a valued custor? Is this how you treat your custor?”

Vincent frowned at her nonchalant attitude.

‘Why is she behaving like that?’ he wondered. ‘Is she upset that I didn’t marry her? Well, she is the one who rejected first. Even if she begs , I can’t divorce Betty.’

“You are indeed a valued custor but you weren’t invited,” he replied.

“Why weren’t I invited?” Catherine looked around. “I see most of the custors are invited here. Why didn’t I get one invitation? Did you not want to co? What are you afraid of?”

Her clear blue eyes were fixed on Vincent.

Vincent’s expression changed. Before he could say anything, his mother ca forward.

.....

“You, slutty girl, what do you want? You already hurt my son and now you want to destroy his wedding? Don’t you have anything else to do? Orphans are really the worst. After all, they don’t have parents to teach them manners!”

Catherine didn’t flinch because of her harsh words. She coldly looked at Vincent’s mother.
