Chapter 340 - Ceremony Ended: What About the Marriage of Convenience We Agreed Upon?
Pregnant With CEO's Baby
After she left, Michael looked at Finn, who looked back at him. Just like that, the two of them looked at each other coldly.
However, no one said a word in the end.
Even as Michael left, Finn remained silent.
..
At that moment, in the dressing room, Jeanne and Monica were both changing out of their gowns.
Jeanneâs gown was too exquisite for her to wear for a day, so she decided to change out of it.
It took her at least half an hour to change out of it, but fortunately, she took them off. If she wore it for the rest of the night, she was not sure if she could take it off herself at the end of the day.
After taking off her gown, Jeanne changed into a simple but well-made dress. Although she did not get it tailor-made, it fit her really well.
At the same time, Monica had also changed into a pink dress.
Both of their dresses were beautiful in their own way. Jeanneâs dress was glamorous and added a charm to her presence, while Monicaâs dress was elegant.
As the staff changed Jeanneâs hair and makeup, they also explained the origins of the dress to Jeanne. They said a lot, but Monica only thought of one word. âExtravagant!â
It was simply too bold, but Jeanne liked it, and she liked domineering men like Fourth Master Swan.
They were all having a good time in the dressing room until suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
......
A staff member walked toward Jeanne respectfully. âMs. Lawrence, someone named Kingsley is looking for you.â
The smile on Jeanneâs face instantly froze.
However, Monica did not notice that. All she heard were the words âKingsleyâ and appeared exceptionally excited. She quickly said, âLet him in!â
The staff member hurriedly went to the door and invited Kingsley in.
Kingsley walked into the dressing room with Lucy following beside him.
Jeanne pursed her lips at the sight of them. Then, she said, âPlease can we have the room to ourselves?â
The staff members quickly put down the work in their hands and left.
Just as Monica looked at Kingsley excitedly and was about to greet him, she heard Jeanne say, âYou too, Monica.â
Monica frowned.
âPlease,â Jeanne said again.
Although Monica was a little unhappy, seeing that Jeanne was very serious about it, she got up and left.
In the room, only the three of them remained.
There was a moment of silence before Jeanne said, âWhy are you here?â
âFourth Master Swan sent me the invitation.â
Jeanne froze.
âI received it yesterday,â Kingsley said bluntly.
Jeanne did not say anything. It was not a big deal anyway.
âEven if he didnât send me an invitation, I would come,â Kingsley said.
âIs that so?â Jeanne smiled.
âI want to watch you get married.â
Jeanneâs throat moved. In fact, she was not so indifferent to it. Even if the wedding was an order from him, she had no choice but to carry it out.
âFourth Master Swan treats you quite well, I see,â Kingsley suddenly said.
At that, Jeanne looked at him.
âTodayâs wedding was very grand.â Kingsleyâs tone was very light, but it was clear that he approved.
However, Jeanne did not answer him because she did not know how to. She did not even know what Kingsley meant by those words.
âOther than coming to see you get married, I have something else to tell you in person.â Kingsley kept looking straight at Jeanne.
Jeanne knew that would be the reason why he came today.
âDonât get your emotions involved.â Kingsley made sure to enunciate each word.
Jeanneâs eyes narrowed.
âI mean, donât get your emotions involved with Fourth Master Swan,â Kingsley reminded her.
Jeanne smiled, and her smile was a little sarcastic. âDo you think feelings can be manipulated at will?â
Kingsley suddenly fell silent for a while. Then, he said, âHave you fallen in love with him?â
Jeanneâs heart skipped a beat, and she pursed her lips, not answering.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou canât fall in love with him.â Kingsley did not seem to be expecting an answer from Jeanne either. With an indifferent tone, he told her, âThis is an order.â
As a professional killer, an order was everything, and it had to be carried out unconditionally.
âYes,â Jeanne said respectfully
Since it was an order, she could only agree to it.
Kingsley looked at Jeanne silently for a while as if he had something to say. However, he chose to keep it to himself in the end.
As he turned around, he said, âCongratulations on your wedding.â
Jeanne wished she could strangle Kingsley to death.
With that, Kingsley left with Lucy, who turned around and smiled at Jeanne on her way out.
Jeanne smiled back while she watched Kingsley and Lucy leave.
At the door, Monica was waiting unhappily. When she saw Kingsley come out, she could not help but call out to him, âKingsley, do you still remember me?â
