Chapter 106 Scolding Indirectly
Once more, Lysanne was scolding Lysander indirectly.
Priscilla was not a fool. She could tell that Lysanneâs intentions were not good. However, given Harryâs respectful attitude toward Josiah, she didnât dare to be negligent. She explained softly, âHeâs a friend of my fatherâs. My father invited her to help out.â
âWas it an invitation, or did she take the initiative to put herself forward?â questioned Lysanne.
âIt should have been an invitation..
âWhat do you mean âshould be?â Lysander interrupted her directly. âThereâs a big difference between being invited and coming on your own accord. You should think it through properly.â
Priscilla, dressed in an intricate wedding gown and teetering on high heels, stood somewhat bewildered in her place.
The guests below were all waiting for the newlyweds to change into their new outfits and propose a toast, signaling the start of the feast.
However, Priscilla was cornered on the stage, unable to descend, and felt somewhat paralyzed.
Fred, who was in the audience, sensed that something was off. He anxiously kept glancing toward the stage, deeply concerned about his daughterâs situation.
Since Lysander had agreed to take on the role of the bridesmaid, she naturally had to be loyal to the cause. She said in a deep voice, âPriscilla, letâs take the route from the back. We can use the second elevator from there.â
âLysander?â Priscilla was confused.
Lysander whispered in her ear, âThe matter at hand is important, so many people are watching below. Donât let your dad worry.â
Priscilla caught sight of her fatherâs worried expression from the stage. She gave a slow nod. âAll right.â
Lysander supported Priscilla as they turned around. Then she squatted down to help her lift the hem. of her wedding dress. The dress was voluminous and fluffy, and it took her quite a while to gather it all in her hands. âAll right, letâs go.â
âWait a moment!â Harry rushed over, grabbing Priscillaâs arm and pulling her back. âPriscilla, how could you be so rude? Do you know who they are? Thatâs Mr. Guerra from Guerra Group!â
Feeling a pang of guilt, Priscilla confessed, âBut I donât know him.â
âCome back with me and make sure you give Mrs. Guerra a proper greeting, do you hear me? Let me tell you, Mrs. Guerra holds a special place in Mr. Guerraâs heart. You need to help me get on good terms with her. If we can get close to Mr. Guerra through her, it will be very beneficial for my future!â

She turned around, a hint of apology in her gaze as she looked at Lysander. âIâm sorry, Lysander. I have to go back and entertain the guests with Harry.â
Lysander advised, âDo you really need to entertain guests in your wedding dress on stage? Hereâs a thought: Iâll have someone escort them to the main table first. Once youâve changed, you can join them for the toast. Any conversations can wait until then.â
âNo way!â Harry rejected it outright, swiftly snatching the wedding dress hem from Lysanderâs hand. He looked at her coldly. âYou donât need to help here. You should go first.â
Lysander remained still, silently observing Harry.
Harry felt a chill run down his spine under her gaze. He pulled out a monetary gift from his pocket and thrust it into her arms, dismissing her with a wave of his hand. âThere, Iâve given you your gift. Now hurry up and go. Donât hold up my work.â

Immediately after, without any explanation, he pulled Priscilla toward the direction of Josiah.
Priscilla hadnât anticipated the force he would use. Caught off guard, she stepped on the hem of her wedding dress and stumbled clumsily to the ground, letting out a gasp, âAhâ¦â
The fall was hard. She crashed onto the icy-cold tiled floor, causing a deep, muffled thud to resonate.
Lysander was the closest, her heart pounding.
Meanwhile, the brideâs startled cry caught the attention of many guests.
Many people had turned their gazes this way, curious to see what had happened.
Fred grew even more worried. He continuously shot glances at Lysander, questioning her with his eyes. asking what was going on.
âWhatâs going on with you? You knew I was meeting with Mr. Guerra, yet you chose this exact moment to fall. Did you do it on purpose to embarrass me?â snapped Harry.
Priscillaâs eyes immediately welled up with tears. She defended herself, feeling wronged. âIt wasnât intentional. The skirt was just too long.â
Harry wore an expression of fury, abruptly pulling his hand from hers. âForget it, just stay here by yourself for now. I have to go attend to our esteemed guests.â
After saying that, he disdainfully threw Priscillaâs hand away.
Originally, Priscilla was half-lifted by him, but due to his action, she fell to the ground for the second time. âAh!â
