Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

“Huh?”

“You knew I was getting married. Are you trying to rope me into giving birth straight away?” Craig asked with gritted teeth.

“I’m already the father of three children. What do you think?” Eric asked. “Have a child earlier so auntie doesn’t have to worry about you.”

“Not only did you bring your child, you’re also showing off!”

Although the cousins each had their own talents, Eric was still the best all-rounder. The only thing Craig held the crown in – was being weird!

While the old friends chatted and laughed, Emma finally spotted Nathan standing not too far away from Xiner…

After not seeing each other for so long, this man now looked like a complete stranger…

Nathan was no longer proud and enthusiastic like he once was.

Although Global Pictures had always been a small potato in the industry, Nathan once viewed it highly.

At this time, Eric followed Emma’s gaze and spotted Nathan. If his love rival was someone else, he may have reacted in some way, but the current Nathan posed no threat whatsoever. Hence, Eric took one simple glance and quickly looked away.

It was that one single glance that reminded Nathan of his distance from Eric.

Afterwards, Nathan placed his gaze on the daughter in Emma’s arms. This was already her third child.

She had a daughter and two sons and she was already on the level of a national treasure in the entertainment industry. Ever since marrying Eric, she had begun to live in a very different world to him.

So, Nathan didn’t want to subject himself to ridicule. Hence, he kept his distance from Emma.

He knew he wasn’t worthy of approaching her.

No matter how much regret he felt, it wasn’t enough to exchange for Emma’s forgiveness. Especially since he no longer meant anything to her.

Xiner noticed Emma’s gaze and patted her on the back of the hand, “Don’t mind him. He knows where he stands.”

“OK, the ceremony is about to start. You should get ready,” Emma reminded.

“Yes, I’ll go get ready.”

After Xiner finished talking, she held onto her dress and rushed into the exclusive makeup room that was prepared specifically for her.

At this time, Eric suddenly pointed to a man in the crowd that was wearing gold-framed glasses and said to Emma, “That is the second son of the Zhai Family.”

“Is he the one that Liang Yongyu is clinging to? It seems, he is being accompanied by a different woman,” Emma smirked as she looked at the man. “I’m afraid, even if Liang Yongyu gives birth to a son, she still won’t get the title that she wants.”

“For the Zhai Family, it’s normal to have one woman at home and another to take out.”

“No wonder her standing in the family didn’t change when she gave birth to a daughter,” Emma shook her head. “The Zhai Family completely treat women like toys.”

The prestigious social circles were unimaginably disgusting.

There were plenty of cases just like the Zhai Family where the husband was rich but their wives couldn’t control them. In cases like that, the women turned a blind eye to their husbands affairs as long as they had control of the family’s finances.

“I feel bad for the two daughters. I hope Liang Yongyu can give birth to a son soon. If she has another daughter, I’m not sure where she’ll leave it next time.”

Eventually, Liang Yongyu did give birth to a son, but that was to happen much later.

Emma and Eric did not usually interact with family’s like the Zhai’s. In reality, they each looked down on the other.

But, the Zhai Family were invited to the ceremony because they had done business with the Bei Family. If not for that reason, their paths would never cross.

“The Bei Family owns such a big business. Why did they accept a lowly daughter-in-law into their family? It’s unbelievable.”

“I know right? Apart from being young, there’s nothing else about her that’s worthy of mention. Did you guys hear earlier? She’s never even seen a sports car in her life.”

“Apparently, the young master of the Bei Family has his eyes set on her and insists on marrying her. I wonder how many days before the passion dies down.”

“He can always marry one for home and have three on the outside. Isn’t that the same?”

“That’s true…”

A few socialite wives sat to the side, their conversations endlessly revolving around Xiner.

How could they not be jealous when a ‘Cinderella’ like Xiner beat their socialite daughters even though she had nothing? It may not have mattered for Emma to overhear their words, but how heartbroken would Xiner be if she heard them too?

However, there was nothing that could be done. Xiner had already entered their social circle, so facing ridicule like that, was expected.

At that time, the socialite wives finally spotted Emma. They had always looked down on performers, but they did not dare to underestimate Emma. It was simple, Emma wasn’t just a person in the entertainment industry, she was also the CEO of Miller Corps, a century-old perfume empire. That wasn’t something that they could look down upon.

Soon, the ceremony officially began.

Down the petal-covered white carpet, Xiner had her arm hooked around Craig’s arm as she walked down the aisle dressed in a starry-patterned gown.

They were in an open-air chapel; a place that Craig specially constructed for Xiner. Hence, there were a lot of little secrets bet**en the couple that were carved onto the walls.

Craig knew that a lot of people were envious that Xiner was marrying into a rich family because they looked down on her family background.

And, of course, the highly observant Xiner sensed the piercing gazes that were directed her way.

Therefore, Craig held tightly to her hand and transferred courage to her.

Xiner was well aware of the family that she was joining. She had actually refused to be a part of it in the past. But, after seeing the act that Craig put on for the last few months, she almost believed that he had dep**ssion as well. So, she did not dare to leave his side in case it broke her heart.

Father Bei and Mother Bei did not like Xiner’s background, but they liked her personality. She was the only person that could withstand Craig’s temper and strange habits. As parents, they couldn’t ask for anything more.

Especially when their son was also diagnosed with dep**ssion.

So, the two elders were happy to do anything as long as their son wanted it. This included, declaring that Xiner was their daughter-in-law.

Of course, they had no idea that Craig was putting on an act.

But, no matter how good his acting was, there was bound to be a day when he’d be exposed. After all, acting and reality were two very different things…

How was Craig planning to handle that day?

He had always been stubborn in his ways; he did not lack the ability, yet he refused to be like the calm and restrained Eric who was so black-bellied that he could take down his enemies with one fatal blow. Instead, he liked to use unconventional methods. As long as he achieved his motive, he didn’t care what he needed to do. In the past, when he pursued Xiner, he had already revealed this side to him. And this time, it was even more extreme.

Xiner knew that his methods weren’t right, but there was nothing she could do.

Everyone was bound to meet a jinx in their life, and there was no doubt that Craig was her jinx.

Meanwhile, throughout the entire ceremony, Craig simply had one clear message: ‘don’t stare at my wife’.

His frustration didn’t subside until they finally boarded their yacht at the end. This was the reason why he never took her out to meet people. He hated seeing other men flirt with his adorable Xiner.

After the ceremony was over, Father Bei and Mother Bei led the guests to the reception. When they spotted Yan Er in Eric’s arms, they immediately fell in love with her.

“Oh, this little face is so white and precious. I wonder when that rascal will give us a grandchild. I really want one to hold.”

“Unfortunately, the rascal is ill and won’t be able to have a child for a while,” Mother Bei said in pity.

Emma and Eric looked at each other but did not say a word.

It wasn’t until the reception that Xiner secretly told Emma about her situation. After Emma heard about it, she knew she wasn’t in any position to object, but she still didn’t like Craig’s risky approach.

Women liked stability, especially when it came to marriage. Xiner was already at a disadvantage to begin with, yet Craig created another obstacle bet**en her and his parents. Although it didn’t appear like they’d be discovered at that very moment, being discovered was only a matter of time. What would they do when that happened?

“Xiner, since things have gotten to this point, there’s nothing I can say. But, you are honestly too lenient towards Craig. When he wants something, he often forgets about the consequences, but you can’t go with the flow, you need to be more forward thinking.”

“Today’s your big day, so I shouldn’t say too much. But, I really can’t believe that Craig lied to his parents like this…”

“Emma, I understand what you’re trying to say,” Xiner smiled. “Since I’ve allowed him to do something like this, I’ve definitely prepared myself for the day that we get exposed.”

“But, not everyone is like you and Mr. Roborts; we don’t have strategies mapped out for every possible situation. I understand him. Although he appears to have a temper because of his bad habits and has the image of a spoilt heir, I’m well aware of his positives and negatives. So, I’m ready to face anything that comes our way.”

Emma nodded her head in response, “I’m simply worried that you’ll be bullied…”

“As long as he is around, no one can bully me. Don’t worry.”

Emma had never actually witnessed the way that Craig protected Xiner.

So, she let the matter go. After all, everyone had their own way of living and had the right to choose their own path. Although she was worried about Xiner, she had no right to judge her.

“As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. But, if one day, you suffer in any way, make sure you tell me. I am family.”

“I understand, Emma,” Xiner spread her arms and hugged Emma tightly. Although marrying Craig wasn’t as stable as marrying Eric, Xiner was satisfied as long as she got to be with the person she loved. Even if it meant taking risks and doing the wrong thing.

Soon, the fairytale-like wedding came to an end.

But, there was still a fireworks show organized for the night.

Craig had specifically prepared it for Xiner.
