Chapter 616 Ishara's Anger
The deep red in Rock's eyes burned intensely as he re-entered the room with a fierce expression. He picked up the landline, squinting his sinister eyes, and dialed a number. "Sierra, are you asleep? If not, come to the wedding hotel, to my bridal suite!"
"Rock, is that you?!" Sierra's voice sounded excited on the other end.
At Rock's wedding today, her thoughts of marriage were shattered when a man disrupted the ceremony, and the bride was abducted. This incident had become widely known in the Lymington household.
It was the dead of night, and Rock had rung her up, asking her to come over.
Surely, it couldn't have been for something serious. Sierra had been inching closer to Rock, with the elders playing matchmaker, and there had really been nothing serious for them to discuss.
'Could it have been...' With the thought of the late hour, her mind had become awash with romantic notions.
Maybe Rock, distraught over losing his bride, in a fit of desperation, had thought of her?
Tonight had been the perfect chance to seize the moment. She couldn't waste it.
"Rock, I've been worried about you and couldn't sleep. Please wait a moment. I'll be there right away."
Twenty minutes later, Sierra, dressed in a sexy miniskirt, appeared in Rock's bridal suite. She stood in the center of the room, looking at Rock sitting coldly on the sofa, his legs crossed. His usually gentle and refined gaze now seemed incredibly cold in the darkness.
Sierra was frightened by his appearance, and yet her heart raced at his handsome indifference. Regardless of his state, she impatiently complained, "Rock, is your room not air-conditioned? It's so hot in here."
Sierra's coquettish tone and demeanor revealed her curves through the thin fabric of her sequined dress, almost transparent under the light.
Sierra's flirtatious tone and demeanor accentuated her curves through the thin fabric of her sequined dress, which appeared almost transparent under the light.
"Sierra, you've always liked me, haven't you?" He asked expressionlessly, a hint of sinister charm in the corner of his eyes.
"Rock, I'm so shy, but I do like you..." Sierra blushed, confessing her attraction to the mature and capable man before her. Though not as flamboyant as Lawrence, who caused a scene at the wedding, Rock's future in Trento City was promising.
If Rock agreed, she was willing to become his clandestine lover.
Sierra turned around, casting a glance at the bed, her eyes filled with wild joy and a hint of mockery. 'Wasn't Winnie quite impressive today? Isn't she the missy of the Blanchet family?' Sierra thought. Yet, in the end, it seemed that destiny had led her to this matrimonial bed.
Sierra boldly embraced Rock's neck, her hand caressing him teasingly. "Rock, what do you want to do?"
The sinister glint in Rock's eyes disappeared as he ruthlessly threw her onto the bed. After sending a text on his phone, he mercilessly tore at Sierra's clothes.
At the Blanchet family mansion in Trento City.
Isharam had not slept all night. The news of Lawrence abducting Winnie at the wedding left her dumbfounded. She never expected things to take such a bizarre turn; Lawrence was truly unpredictable!
'How dare he disappear with Winnie like that?'
Ishara and Eleanor were infuriated upon seeing the news. They had calculated that Rock wouldn't let Lawrence escape from the wedding. In a heated confrontation, if Winnie were to refuse and Lawrence's mind remained troubled, he would likely take extreme measures, even if it meant causing harm to Winnie in order to prevent her from ending up with Rock.
This was the direction Ishara had hoped for!
She never imagined that Lawrence would abandon everything and elope with Winnie!
'Where had he gone?'
Ishara sent out Claire to inquire, along with many others from the Rodriguez Group, including Lymington, but they found nothing.
As dawn approached, the Rodriguez family still had no news about Lawrence's return.
It appeared that he had truly vanished. "Weren't the Rodriguez Group's EWM in a critical development phase? How could he just leave like that?"
Not only did he propose to Winnie at the wedding, making national headlines, but he also brought negative consequences directly to Ishara. In just one afternoon, she became the subject of ridicule in Trento City's aristocratic circles.
"Lawrence proposed! It seems he truly loves Winnie. Ishara, now pregnant, has become a complete joke." "I always knew Lawrence wasn't that into her. She was so ostentatious during the engagement. I bet she deliberately got pregnant."
"Ishara used to have a good reputation, fragile and unassuming, but now it's all out in the open. She's no longer the same, trying to steal her sister's man."
Those debutantes even taunted Ishara to her face. Pale with anger, Ishara dared not leave the house all afternoon. Everyone was discussing the matter, discussing her. It had become truly difficult for her to marry into the Rodriguez family.
Lawrence rejected her through his actions, telling her not to harbor any illusions. He was driven mad by Winnie's allure, to the point where he even resorted to eloping.
Ishara felt disappointed by Lawrence's apparent emotional entanglement, as she viewed him as noble and proud, standing above the nation's elite.
She was particularly dismayed that he had seemingly forsaken his future for Winnie. As Eleanor hurriedly entered the room with Ishara's phone, she informed her daughter that someone had sent her a message.
Ishara, hoping for positive news from Claire, instead watched a video that filled her with such fury that she almost fainted. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and she angrily slammed the phone to the ground. Startled, Eleanor picked up the phone and inquired about what had upset Ishara.
Clutching the bedsheets tightly, Ishara's soft voice twisted as she expressed her distress over Lawrence's alleged intimacy with Winnie, questioning his mental state and her own future prospects.
She blamed Winnie for seducing him and expressed a wish for her demise. Eleanor, concerned about Ishara's well-being and the baby, urged her to calm down and not disturb the child. She then asked Ishara about the sender of the video with a complex and suspicious expression.
