Chapter 357
Being violated by Sebastian was a lifelong scar for Yvette. It was a memory that drove her to madness every time she recalled it. She wouldn't be able to find peace as long as Sebastian was alive.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"It's a pity I couldn't kill you with my own hands," Yvette thought regretfully.
Then, she looked up at Lillian with a trace of jealousy flashing in her eyes.
She had never lost to anyone in terms of beauty, but after seeing Lillian, she had to admit that she was indeed slightly inferior.
"Celestial Master Thorne, you are fortunate to have such a lovely wife. Even as a woman, I feel a bit envious," Yvette praised.
"Ms. Osborne, you're too kind. Your beauty is in no way inferior to hers. Moreover, as the eldest daughter of the Osborne family, you are like a diamond among rocks. She can't compare to you at all," Magnus replied, both flattering and speaking his true thoughts.
While Lillian was indeed more beautiful, her status was far lower.
If Magnus had the choice, he would rather marry Yvette.
With the Osborne family as his backing, even the Novastar Organization and the Dragonheart wouldn't dare to trample all over him anymore.
However, this was just a thought he had.
The women from these hidden families were exceedingly proud. It was rare for an outsider to catch their eye.
Moreover, Magnus was old enough to be Yvette's father. He didn't stand a chance with her.
He then went to greet the other guests with Lillian.
In reality, there wasn't much entertaining to do.
With his current status, apart from people from hidden families like Yvette's, everyone else was there to curry favor with him.
More than entertaining, he was showing off.
And he got what he wanted. Not only had he managed to snag a young lady, but Lillian was an exceptionally gorgeous young lady. Any man who saw her would feel envious and resentful.
At this moment, Nathaniel approached him.
"Celestial Master Thorne, most of the guests have arrived. The only ones missing are people from the Lloyd family, the Bailey family, and the Lewis family."
"Drat! How dare that old fox Benjamin embarrass me! But since the Lloyd family isn't easy to deal with, I'll let it slide. However, for the Bailey family and the Lewis family to not come, they must be tired of living." A trace of murderous intent flashed in Magnus' eyes.
Nathaniel continued, "The Bailey family's eldest daughter has publicly declared herself as Sebastian Wilder's fiancée. The Lewis family's eldest daughter also seems to be involved with Sebastian. That's probably why they didn't want to come."
"That bastard Sebastian sure has a knack for finding beautiful women. But what does it matter? In the end, his relationships with them end up in my favor. Go to the Bailey family and the Lewis family now and bring those women here. I want to enjoy them slowly," Magnus said lecherously.
"Yes, sir!" Nathaniel responded and left immediately.
Once upon a time, he and Magnus were equals.
Things had changed.
As Magnus became the new master of Supreme Nexus and his power grew stronger, Nathaniel became a subordinate.
Soon after, the wedding ceremony began. Magnus led Lillian onto the stage.
"Thank you all for traveling from afar to attend my wedding. I express my heartfelt gratitude," Magnus announced. Though his voice wasn't loud, it carried across the entire hall.
The audience erupted into applause.
At this moment, Justin, the second son of the Zatch family, stood up with a wine glass.
"Let us all raise our glasses to congratulate Celestial Master Thorne and his wife on their
joyous union. May they have a hundred years of happiness together."
"Congratulations to Celestial Master Thorne! Congratulations to the bride! We wish you a lifetime of happiness and joy!" Everyone echoed in unison, raising their glasses.
Magnus couldn't contain his smile; he was overjoyed today.
As the guests were about to drink, a sudden "whoosh" filled the air. What followed was a sight no one could believe a pitch-black coffin flew through the hotel entrance.
The entire room of guests screamed in terror and scattered in panic.
The coffin landed in the middle of the hall, smashing a table and causing the ground to shake violently.
