Chapter 452: Crashing the Wedding
What puzzled Eric the most was that, although John uncovered several informants within the Elite Horizon Club, all of them had a consistent story—they were paid a hefty sum of money, contacted solely through disposable phones.
That sum of money was more than what they’d earn from working at the club for ten years!
As for those informants, Eric left their handling to John. When he returned home, he found Ella sound asleep on the bed.
"Darling..." he called out softly, but Ella was sleeping soundly. He quietly walked over to her. The moonlight fell on her peaceful face, so stunningly beautiful it was almost otherworldly.
Eric swallowed hard. Despite taking an ice-cold bath at the club, he felt desire stirring again.
However, considering the baby growing in her belly, he suppressed his urges. Gently lying down beside her, he silently gazed at Ella’s face, and a wave of happiness filled his heart.
Time quickly flew by, and it was now December 31st.
Tomorrow would be Ella and Eric’s big day. Even James had cheerfully come over to their house. Although Eric wasn’t particularly fond of him, he didn’t kick him out.
Adding to the joyous atmosphere, Henry and Lauren had returned to Country S two days ago. Henry had nearly recovered, though he still walked a bit slowly. The doctors had said his rapid recovery was nothing short of a miracle.
While Ella was happily chatting with her friends, a blonde woman stepped out of the arrivals hall at S City Airport, her seven-inch heels clicking elegantly against the floor. Behind her trailed a blonde man, his gaze full of adoration as he watched her as if she were the only woman in the world.
"Vivian, are you really going? Your brother forbade you from coming!"
