Chapter 457: Refusing to Back Down
Ella smiled softly. "Miss Vivian, we did send you an invitation. After all, in both the Nelson and Anderson families, attending a wedding banquet requires an invitation. I hope you can understand."
"Vivian, stop causing a scene and go inside," David said impatiently.
Carl, who was deeply in love with Vivian, snorted. "Rules are made by people, aren’t they?"
"David, our wedding banquet is only for genuine friends. And this person is...?" Eric trailed off, his piercing gaze landing on Carl.
Carl felt the weight of Eric’s cold stare, sharp as a sword ready to pierce his chest. Startled, he locked eyes with the man radiating such an icy, commanding presence.
"Carl, if you want to attend this wedding banquet, stop talking nonsense," David said, frowning.
Carl’s face darkened, but he dared not say another word.
Eric let the matter slide and invited them to their seats before escorting Ella back to the head table.
"Eric, today is your big day. I don’t want any unpleasant incidents," Lucas said calmly, glancing at Eric.
Eric nodded quickly. "Don’t worry, Dad. Nothing will happen."
Ella smiled faintly, but she could feel Vivian’s cold gaze flitting toward her face from time to time. It reminded her of the time Vivian had called, deliberately trying to make her misunderstand Eric.
