CHAPTER 255 THAT'S QUITE A COINCIDENCE
The engagement ceremony is not as complicated as the wedding ceremony. The emcee first makes
fun of the unmarried couple, then asks them to exchange engagement rings and invites Jasmine's
parents to give a speech. Then the ceremony is almost over.
Sunny sits on the chair and says in surprise, "Nina, I bet you $1.5 million. This engagement ceremony
is very unusual. Look, the parents of the Jasmine are all here, but none of the family of Lucien is here.
Lucien's the only person of the Gray family to show up."
A few moments suddenly flash through Nina's mind, and she shakes her head, "Lucien's family is quite
strange. Maybe his grandpa doesn't show up because he is too old, and Nelson doesn't attend
because his eyes haven't recovered. But his parents are alive. Why aren't they here?"
"What? His parents are still alive?" The eyes of Sunny brighten, and her gossip-love heart is ignited,
"I've never heard him talk about it. Peter Johnson doesn't know about it, too!"
Nina secretly regrets it in her heart. She feels that it is not appropriate for her to say this. It is obvious
that Lucien doesn't want others to know about his family. So she quickly turns to other topics, "I've only
heard him say it once. Maybe I remember wrong. Sunny, do you think he will not keep his promise not
to tell me my daughter's whereabouts?"
"I don't think so. Peter Johnson once said that Lucien never lies, and does what he says. So, he should
not break his promise. Wow, Nina, my little baby can have a nice elder sister as soon as he is born! It's
great that we can take our children out to play together later!" Sunny begins to dream about the happy
life in the future.
When it comes to her daughter, Nina's gloomy mood also improves a little, "Sunny, I will go to Lucien
as soon as the ceremony is over!"
Sunny makes a winning gesture to her, and then they look at each other and smile.
After the ceremony, the wine party begins. The waiters carry the table full of wine out and put it along
the wall. The music played on the large LED screen on the wall has also been replaced with soft piano
music. The male and female guests drink and talk with each other happily in the soft music.
Nina takes a deep breath and is ready to get up to find Lucien.
Just walking to the wine table, she hears a familiar voice, "Waiter, how can I get to room 3027?"
Nina looks out of the corner of her eyes at where the sound is coming from and sees Aldrich, and then
there is an involuntary pause in her breathing.
Just half an hour ago, when she went to the bathroom to make up, she heard Chrystal White ask the
waiter the same question.
Room 3027! Both Chrystal White and Aldrich are going to 3027. What a coincidence!
Nina pretends to tidy up her skirt and stops to listen to the conversation between the waiter and Aldrich.
Looking at the back of Aldrich away, Nina has an idea in her mind. She avoids everyone and slowly
follows him.
The design of this hotel is complex, and the corridor is like a labyrinth. Nina dares not follow him too
closely, and she can hardly keep up with Aldrich several times..
The third floor is quiet, in great contrasts to the bustle of the first floor hall. It's a little spooky quiet in
here. This is property © .
Good. At the end of the corridor, Aldrich gently pushes open a door. Nina holds her breath and moves
forward quietly. She is so nervous that her heart is about to burst out of her throat!
The door is open! Nina is a little surprised, and she is about to look in through the crack of the door.
Suddenly, a big hard hand stretches out from behind, covering her mouth and driving her back! Then
she falls into the arms of a man!
