Chapter 628 Strange
Charles shrugged
The butler continued the conversation. “Indeed, this flower is beautiful. It symbolizes good fortune and completeness, making it a popular choice for a wedding
He gestured with his hand. “Please, follow me.”
William remained immoved. He said to the butler, “You wouldn’t mind bringing us to look at the wedding venue now, would you?”
The butler readily agreed and led them toward the banquet hall..
As the owner of a prominent Faldorian conglomerate, the family naturally lived in opulence. The villa comprised several vintage–style buildings, one housing guest accommodations and another being the banquet hall
The moment they entered the banquet hall, they abruptly stopped in their tracks. Charles and Bryan turned to glance at William simultaneously after recovering from their shock
William’s expression had hardened. The banquet hall was exquisitely adorned. It was lavish and magnificent, yet
William’s gaze slowly moved from the stage to the crystal chandeliers, the carpet to the dining tables, and then to the porcelain and pastries on the table. The decorations resembled those in his wedding with Emelie. For a fleeting moment, he felt as though he had been transported back to that day.
Suddenly, a sharp bang echoed through the air, causing William to jack his head up and look toward the second floor.
However, the second floor was empty.
The butler reprimanded, “How careless! You’ve broken a plate! Clean it up quickly!”
William looked toward the source of the nose and saw a staff who had accidentally shattered a plate. The sound mirrored Jodie’s gunshot from the second floor back then.
William closed his eyes, frowning. He realized he was agitated because of the familiar surroundings.
After he regained his composure, he studied the wedding setup once more. He noticed subtle differences upon closer Inspection. It was understandable for wedding setups to share similarities.
Charles asked, “Shouldn’t there be photographs of the bride and groom on display at the wedding wense?”
The butler nodded. “That’s the custom, yes. However, this is the young lady’s first public appearance. Mr. Renaud prefers to unveil her identity at the wedding for a more formal introduction.”
Charles was surprised. “A first appearance? She hasn’t appeared in public before? She’s been remarkably well–hidden”
ined with a smile.
“The young lady has dedicated herself to her studies and has maintained a low profile to avoid disturbances,” the butler explained
The butler continued, “But there will be ample opportunities for her to step into the limelight in the future. Mr. Renaud has mentioned that he will guide her in managing the Aurora Group’s affairs.”
So, they were grooming her to be the successor?
“Does this mean we’ll deal with the young lady in the future for business?” Charles raised an eyebrow. “By the way, I heard that she’s Mr. Renaud’s niece. Maternal or pateral?”
His tone was friendly and inquisitive rather than intrusive.
As it was not a secret, the butler responded honestly, “The young lady is not biologically related to Mr. Benaud. There was an incident where Mr. Renaud and his wife were camping in the wild and encountered danger. The young lady happened to be passing by and intervened, saving them in time. “They were deeply touched by her actions. After finding out that she was an cephan and was studying in Baliz alone, they adopted her. The young I sensible and caring. She shares a strong bond with them.”
Charles listened attentively, “Quite remarkable. It sounds like something out of a movie”
“Indeed, it’s a beartwarming tale,” the butler agreed.
Just then, a staff member called out to him. He apologized before attending to the matter.

Charles adjusted his scarf, finding the situation somewhat amusing “Are foreigners so callous to pass their inheritance, and one this huge, to an outsider?”
“It’s not completely surprising. There was a man in Bredal who left his entire fortune to his cat,” Bryan remarked casually.
Charles was convinced. “The world is full of wonders. It makes Ms.Thornton’s situation seem even more unfortunate. She has been confined to bed for two years because her relatives harmed her while fighting over the family’s inheritance. Speaking of which, is Mr. Undvike coming?”
Bryan replied, “He’s on a business trip in Marcelanna. He should be here by tomorrow morning once he finishes his work”
Their visit was not solely for the wedding Primarily, they were here to discuss further cooperation with the Aurora Group
They had signed ten–year contracts with them, where the first three years would be used to build Laboratories. Now, the laboratories had been completed ahead of schedule.

The results of their collaboration over the past two years had exceeded expectations. Strengthening their partnership while the iron was hot would be advantageous for both the Xanther Group and the four families.
Bryan wanted to ask for William’s opinion, but William’s attention was drawn to a figure passing through the corridor.
He narrowed his eyes sharply.
