Chapter 1699


    Madam Sager scoffed upon hearing this and no longer made an issue of it. She had Anne walk her to her seat, walking past Lisa


    in the process. Ada followed closely after her and when she passed by Sherry, she made a point of shooting a hostile re at


    her


    Sherry scowled but did not otherwise respond to the gesture.


    Soon, Madam Sager was seated directly in front and center of the stage.


    Anne and Ada took their seats by her side.


    Ron went up to Lisa and said while swiping a dismissive nce at Sherry and Carl, “I ended up convincing Mom toe along


    with Anne. After all, today is a big day for Carl and it would be wrong to miss the perfect asion. She’s here to give her


    blessings.”


    Lisa held back an ugly scowl.


    She doubted Ron would ever have such kind intentions. If anything, he would be the first one wishing for their downfall especially


    considering what it would signify for him. Still, she was not too concerned because she doubted there was much he could do to


    derail the engagement. ceremony at this point. She thanked him perfunctorily. “Thank you, you''re very thoughtful.”


    With that, Ron went to his seat, apanied by Aiden and Caden.


    Now that all the guests were installed in their seats, Lisa turned to Carl and Sherry “Carl, Sherry, get ready to go on stage, I’m


    going back to my seat as well.”


    Carl smiled and nodded. “Sure.”


    Sherry smiled politely. “Don’t worry about a thing. Aunt Lisa.”


    Lisa smiled kindly, then she went to her seat which was right next to Anne’s


    With everyone seated, the host marched onto the stage with an air of cheeriness andmenced the engagement ceremony by


    giving a short and sweet introduction speech.


    After the speech, he raised the pitch of his voice and set the stage for the main event of the day.” And now, let us wee the


    stars of the show, Mr. Carl and Mrs. Sherry!”


    This was apanied by thunderous apuse.


    Carl beamed with joy as he held out a hand toward Sherry and requested graciously. “Shall we?” Sherry smiled and gave her his


    hand.


    Hand in hand, the pair stepped onto the red carpet and walked toward the stage, showered by rose petals that danced in the air


    and thunderous apuse.


    After they stepped onto the stage, the crowd cheered.


    The host further roused the crowd to a fever pitch, the emotions of the night had reached their peak.


    He held up another microphone to Carl and presented him with a question. “Enlighten us, dear Master Sager, what made you fall


    for Mrs. Sherry?”


    Carl turned to Sherry with a seduced look in his shining eyes.


    He announced proudly. “To tell the truth, it was love at first sight.”


    Deep down, Sherry was getting ufortable from the way he stared at her


    His proud deration attracted countless oohs and ahhs from the crowd.


    The only ones who were not cheering were the family of Ron and Sager, which all wore disinterested looks on their faces. Worst


    of all was Ada who was tantly scowling at the sight of the soon-to-be-engaged couple.


    Meanwhile, inside the vi next to the venue.


    Someone was lurking by the window on the top floor


    The man was holding Caprice in one arm and a pair of binocrs in the other.


    His eyes peered through the lens of the binocrs and spied on the rowdy venue down below.


    Aphone was positioned next to him which transmitted a live audio broadcast from the venue.


    He heard the host’s ecstatic voicee through the speakers. “Well then, Mrs. Sherry, would your tell us when you fell in love


    with Mr. Carl?”


    John frowned upon hearing this, he zoomed in on Sherry.


    Sherry looked at the host and put on her most genuine smile. ‘I fell in love with him at first sight as well.”


    The host eximed, “Wow! You two are truly a match made in heaven!”


    Everyoneughed cheerily and apuded.


    John scoffed upon hearing this.


    Caprice watched her father with a look of intrigue and observed the pair of binocrs in his hand with stark curiosity.


    She did not understand what was so funny about what the host had said and why her father seemed so amused. However, she


    had a sense that she heard her mother’s voice on the speaker. She made a weak little pout and asked, “Daddy, was that


    Mommy''s voice on the phone?”
