Task NO.1: How To Pursue Miss CEO

Chapter 56

At the moment, Selena was rather agitated. However, Pierre just stared at her with his dark eyes, which caused her smile to fade.

“They’re all your family members, so why would you want to make it unpleasant for them? Why don’t you just forget it? After all, if anything happens during the wedding, it will affect the Yards’ reputation as well.”

Despite his indifferent tone, his attitude was overbearing, which greatly displeased Selena. It was the first time he spoke to her in such a serious manner, but he was apparently not on her side.

“The Yards’ reputation? Are you saying that their reputation matters, but mine doesn’t?” “You’re also one of the Yards.”

“I’m not! If I could remove this surname of mine, I would’ve done it a long time ago! Do you think I’m one of the Yards? Do you know how they treat me? If you know what they’ve done to me, you wouldn’t have said so!”

Selena glowered at him, for he had infuriated her by saying something she hated to hear. She had an aversion to anyone who told her to give up getting her revenge just because she was also one of the Yards.

Pierre was lost for words. In fact, it wasn’t his intention to dissuade her from getting her revenge, but he had to attend the wedding on this day, so he wouldn’t want to clash with her and let her find out his identity.

“I don’t care what you will do today, but I will carry out my plan as expected. Bye!”

After shooting him a look, Selena lifted the hem of her dress and walked up the stairs.

On the other hand, Finneas and his father were receiving guests in the hotel. He was anxious because he was expecting to see the president of JNS Corporation and Selena.

He knew that Pierre would come today, but the person he was more excited to meet was the president of JNS Corporation, as this company could bring him better benefits. Pierre and Meredith hadn’t married, so no one knew what would happen in the future.

Meanwhile, Roland was seated by a table. As the father of the bribe, he was supposed to receive guests at the entrance as well. However, he was a rather lazy man, and he thought that it would degrade himself by receiving guests, so he decided to just sit there.

Also, he was bragging about his achievements incessantly.

“I don’t have a son, but God has treated me well because all my three daughters have found their perfect partners in life!” Roland said to other guests as he drank his tea.

The guests around the same table were all influential people invited by the Lakes.

“Mr. Yard, you’re fortunate to have three brilliant daughters. But I only heard that you had two daughters, so why do you have three now?”

The others just laughed without uttering a word as they listened to their conversation.

Roland had three daughters, one of which was given birth by his deceased wife. The daughter was just six months older than his twin daughters. Everyone knew what happened, but they just never made fun of Roland in front of him with this matter.

He was never seen together with his eldest daughter, so everyone wasn’t familiar with her. In recent years, some people had even forgotten about the existence of his eldest daughter.

“My second daughter is getting married, and I still have a third daughter. You all know who she is, right? She’s the best actress who has won numerous awards. Also, she’s the future wife of Pierre Fowler. In other words, Pierre is my future son-in-law!”

Roland thumped his own chest with a smug smile.

“Oh, Mr. Yard, so you will be Pierre’s father-in-law soon. Hahaha…”

No one knew the relationship between Meredith and Pierre, but since Roland kept talking about this, they just thought that he was bluffing and never took his words seriously. After all, countless men with daughters would love to be Pierre’s father-in-law.
