Chapter 16

As soon as Waterson said that, there was a public uproar, and all the guests were stunned! Shaun and Lexie were also frightened and could not believe their ears. ‘What exactly is going on?’ “Boss!” Suddenly, Mr. Waterson shouted and saluted Marcus respectfully. The dozens of security guards behind them also bowed in unison. Their movements were uniform. “Hahaha!” Marcus held his head high and laughed heartily. Then, he looked at the couple. “I told you a long time ago that I am the owner of Dynasty Hotel, but you didn’t believe me! “Do you understand now? This hotel belongs to me, and I can prevent your engagement ceremony by just saying a few words. “Today, you two are destined to be clowns!” … At this moment, Marcus felt extremely happy inside as the hatred that had accumulated for a long time was finally vented and released today. “No! Impossible!” Lexie shook her head desperately, her eyes filled with resentment. “Marcus, you are a piece of trash who just got out of prison, so how could you be the owner of Dynasty Hotel?” “It must be fake! Did you pay Mr. Waterson to put on this act with you?” Shaun also questioned. Many guests nodded when they heard that guess. They thought it was somewhat reasonable. “How dare you! Do you think a buffoon like you can slander my boss’ identity?” Mr. Waterson yelled angrily. Then, he turned to look at Marcus and asked respectfully, “Boss, what should we do with this pair of scoundrels? Should we throw them out?” “There’s no hurry. Let’s destroy their engagement first!” Marcus ordered. “Yes!” Mr. Waterson waved his hand, and dozens of security guards behind him immediately took action. Crack! Bang! Soon, the wedding photos on the high platform were torn into pieces, the cake tower overturned, and the scrumptious banquet smashed… The newlyweds, Shaun and Lexie, were meant to be the main characters today and enjoy countless blessings and honors! Now, they had fallen from heaven to hell, and their reputation had hit rock bottom. “Ah!” Lexie let out a mournful scream. “It’s over! My engagement party is ruined! Marcus, you mongrel! You ruined everything! I’ll kill you!” She waved her hands, bared her teeth, and lunged at Marcus. “Get lost, you b*tch!” Marcus leaned slightly and tripped her. Smack! Lexie fell on her face. Her face was bruised and swollen like a clown's. “Damn it!” Shaun’s face was livid and he trembled in anger, but he did not dare to do anything because of the dozens of security guards behind Marcus, so he could only curse. “Marcus, I don’t know how you bribed Mr. Waterson, but I still have a trump card. Once I reveal it, it’ll be too late for you to kneel and beg!” “What trump card?” Marcus asked with a smile. Shaun seemed to regain some confidence and said triumphantly, “Don’t forget, Dynasty Hotel belongs to the wealthy Lincoln family and I have invited their daughter. Looking at the time, she should be here soon!” Upon hearing this, Lexie also became excited suddenly. “Miss Jane, the owner of Dynasty Hotel is not someone you can compare to! When she comes, you will be finished, you imposter!” “Oh? Then I’ll wait!” Far from being afraid, Marcus crossed his arms and looked interested. Suddenly, an announcement came from outside the banquet hall. “Miss Jane Lincoln is here!” Then… Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! All the guests turned around and looked toward the entrance of the banquet hall. They saw a stunning beauty sashaying into the hall, swaying her slender hips. She wore a black V-neck evening dress that made her look so magnificent and devastatingly beautiful that she overshadowed all the other women in an instant. “How beautiful!” “As expected of the number one beauty of the East Sea!” “She has a beautiful face and comes from a noble family. Whoever marries her won't have to work much for a few decades!” Many guests were amazed and could not stop admiring her. “Oh? It’s her!” Lexie’s eyes widened in surprise. She had a conflict with Marcus at Dynasty Hotel before. At that time, this mysterious woman appeared and brought security guards to maintain order, so she and Shaun had to leave in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, this was the daughter of the Lincoln family! “Miss Lincoln, you are finally here!” Shaun seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, so he took the initiative to greet Jane with a friendly smile on his face. “Thank you for doing me the honor and coming to my engagement party. "However, a mongrel came here today to cause trouble and made a mess. “What's more, he even colluded with Mr. Waterson and pretended to be the owner of Dynasty Hotel! Who in the East Sea doesn't know that this hotel belongs to your father? “Miss Lincoln, please uphold justice for me and make the security guard beat up that mongrel and throw him into the sewer!” … Not only did he compliment Jane, but he also blamed Marcus for all the offenses. What he did was very clever. However, in the next second, Jane said to Shaun coldly with a pretty face, “Who said I came here because I was invited by you?” “Huh?” Shaun was taken aback when he heard that. He stood there dumbfounded while looking very embarrassed. However, Jane ignored him, walked quickly to Marcus’s side, and smiled slightly. “There was a traffic jam just now, so I was a little late. You aren’t angry with me, are you?” “It’s okay. You came just in time! Jane, you look so beautiful today!” Marcus praised from the bottom of his heart. The coldness on Jane’s pretty face melted instantly after hearing that, revealing a shy blush for the first time. The atmosphere in the hall became a little odd. This scene surprised many guests. Meanwhile, Shaun and Lexie felt a strong sense of foreboding in their hearts. ‘Is it possible that Marcus has known Jane for a long time and the two have a close relationship? ‘This is so strange!’ Finally, Shaun could not hold back the curiosity in his heart and asked, “Miss Lincoln, how do you know this piece of trash Marcus? He is a rapist and has been in prison for three years. Being with him will only lower your dignified identity.” “Hmph!” Jane frowned and she looked at Shaun indifferently. Then, she parted her red lips slightly. “Marcus is not trash! “In my eyes, he is an indomitable man, and he’s far stronger than a despicable villain like you! “From now on, whoever scolds Marcus will be an enemy of the Lincoln family!” … Her words were sonorous and forceful, revealing the incomparable arrogance of a queen. It was as if a bomb had detonated in the banquet hall. “Hiss!” Shaun inhaled sharply from the fright. His heart was pounding with fear. He never imagined that the backer he had worked so hard to find would support that piece of trash Marcus! It was as if he had just shot himself in the foot! “Why?” The next moment, Shaun broke down and roared desperately. He had to figure this out even if he died. “I’m the CEO of Four Oceans Corporation! What has that piece of trash Marcus ever done? Miss Lincoln, why?” For a moment, everyone pricked up their ears, waiting for an answer. While everyone was staring, Jane took Marcus's arm affectionately. Then, she said something that shocked everyone. “Marcus Knight is my fiance. “And my family gave him Dynasty Hotel as dowry!”
