?Chapter 364:


    Without explicit approval from Alexander, the guards were instructed not to allow the Reeds inside.


    Confused, Benjamin protested, “Banned? What kind of nonsense is this? Elena is right here. Go ask her—am I allowed in or not?”


    The security guard turned to look at Elena. She shrugged casually. “They want to force themselves in. I never give my consent to their entry.”


    “I understand, Miss Harper. Rest assured, I won’t let them disturb your father.” The security guard then turned back to Benjamin and Cecily, his voice stern. “You need to leave now!”


    Attempting to exploit Elena’s reputation for their own benefit—such boldness from the Reed family. The security guard was somewhat familiar with the backstory. The Reed family once raised Elena, yet there were whispers that they had treated her poorly and eventually kicked her out. However, once they realized Elena was Alexander’s daughter, they repeatedly appeared here, much to the…


    Being entrusted with a Harper family child should have been an honor, but the Reed family failed to recognize its value.


    Watching Elena dismiss them, Benjamin felt a surge of anger so intense that it pained his chest. “Elena! How can you y me like this?”


    Elena had no intention of dragging the encounter out any longer. “Don’te back. You’re not wee here.”


    Eventually, Benjamin and Cecily were escorted out by the security guard. Benjamin was seething with fury.


    Elena hadn’t given much thought to the events of the morning, but that evening, She called her.


    Worriedly, Elena asked, “She, why are you still up? Are you feeling ill?”


    However, She asked her to return to Foiclens for Sylvia’s wedding.


    Elena’s face slowly grew stern. She hadn’t expected She to side with the Reed family in pressing her to attend Sylvia’s wedding. At first, she had no intention of going, but after She’s heartfelt plea, she gave in. On the day of Sylvia’s wedding, Elena chose a in white dress, and her only adornment was a ring on her finger.


    Upon seeing Elena, Sylvia’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction.


    Sylvia judged Elena’s attire as too simple, convinced that the Harper family must have finally seen Elena’s true nature and stopped spoiling her.

    Sylvia approached with a forced smile, her tone warm. “Elena, you finally came. I was starting to wonder if you’d show up. Today is my wedding with Darren. We have unbreakable connections. This day means the world to me, and I’d have been devastated if you missed it.”


    Elena observed with a calm, detached gaze as Sylvia put on her act. Even after all this time, Sylvia’s act was still terrible.


    As Sylvia dropped her facade, Elena replied sharply, “You’re truly disgusting.”


    Sylvia wore a wless white wedding dress, her head covered by a veil, and her face adorned with exquisite makeup, transforming her otherwise in appearance into something close to beauty. However, her expression twisted into a distorted sneer, ruining much of the charm she had tried to project.


    As Sylvia thought about her next move, she restrained her frustration, stopping herself from snapping right away. She silently scoffed to herself, certain that Elena wouldn’t be so confident for much longer.


    Sylvia caught a glimpse of something amiss out of the corner of her eye—the ring absence of any respectable jewelry on Elena’s neck—and a sly smile crept onto her face.
