Wolves, Maces, And Blood

Chapter 5 Make an Entrance, Perfect Match

In the hotel lobby.

As soon as the three of Cecilia appeared, they instantly became the center of attention. Eyes were cast

upon them, sympathizing, regretting, and still more gloating.

Isaac Moore has been quietly spreading personal information about Sean Mason.

So the guests knew exactly what kind of man Cecilia was marrying.

But even so, they came to congratulate her.

“Congratulations, the Old Mr. Moore.”

“Miss Moore’s beauty and Mr. Mason’s youthful talent made a perfect match.”

They were lying with their eyes open!

Seated at the head of the table, Carter Moore, dressed in a smart suit, leaned on a dragon head cane.

He looked dignified even when he was smiling.

“Father, they’re here.”

Dylan Moore came up behind Carter Moore, bent over and whispered, “We can get started.”

“Okay!”

Carter Moore stood up, raised her hand, and the crowded lobby fell silent. He said with a loud voice, “I

am honored that you could join me today for the engagement of my granddaughter Cecilia.”

“As you all know, my granddaughter not only looks like a fairy, but also has great business ability and is

a rare business talent. So, I was very careful in choosing her husband...”

“Finally, out of dozens of candidates, a young man named Sean Mason stood out. I hope that from now

on, he will be kind to Cecilia, the couple will be happy and have a baby soon.”

What he said sounded very good. The uninformed would think Carter Moore had Cecilia’s best

interests at heart and found her a perfect match and a role model husband.”

The audience applauded.

The applause in Cecilia’s ears, however, was like a lump in her throat, like a slap in her face. She was

indescribably oppressed and miserable.

Looking up at the beaming Carter Moore, Cecilia bit her lips with her teeth, almost bleeding.

What a good grandpa!

Growing up, Carter Moore doted on Isaac Moore and disdained her because she was a woman who

would marry to another man and could not carry the Moore family line.

Especially five years ago, when she got pregnant out of wedlock and the Moore family became the

laughingstock of Hilshire, Carter Moore would have kicked Matthew Moore’s family out if it hadn’t been

for their pity.

“Disgusting old man!”

Furious, Marcia tried to defend Cecilia, but Matthew Moore stopped her. He shook his head at her and

motioned her to stop with an almost imploring look.

“Loser!”

Marcia gritted her teeth, but bore it in.

“Everybody, please look this way.”

Then Dylan Moore, who was standing behind Carter Moore, reached toward the back door and

shouted, “Next, let’s welcome the lucky guy to make his entrance!

The moment was finally coming!

Secretly plotting for nearly two months, Dylan Moore’s only purpose was to overwhelm Cecilia and stop

her development at the Moore Group.

Married to a rapist and a violent maniac, what good life was she going to have?

How else would she care to go to work?

Dylan Moore grinned from ear to ear as he thought about Cecilia’s tragic end.

Cut!

As everyone waited, the back door of the hotel was opened and Sean Mason strode in, Phyllis Moore

in his arms.

For a moment, the guests were dumbfounded.

Their jaws dropped all over the floor.

What was going on?

He walked in here with a baby?

Some people recognized Phyllis Moore and began to whisper. They looked at Sean Mason with

admiration.

They thought to themselves, “Good for you! How dare you bring this little bastard in? Aren’t you

ashamed enough?”

Good for you!

Matthew Moore and Marcia turned their faces away to quietly wipe away tears. They couldn’t bear to

watch it.

Cecilia, however, did not escape, casting her desperate eyes directly at the back door of the hotel.

She wanted to see what kind of man her husband was!

“Phyllis?!”

At one glance, Cecilia’s face suddenly changed. She blurted out a cry of surprise and rushed at Sean

Mason.

“Mommy!”

Phyllis was overjoyed and opened her arms to greet Cecilia.

Cecilia took Phyllis out of Sean Mason’s arms and held her tight. Then she looked at Sean Mason and

asked, “So… so you are Sean Mason, right? How come Phyllis is with you?”

“I ran into her downstairs.”

Sean Mason nodded and smiled, looked at Cecilia closely, and held out his arms, “Hello, Miss Moore.

It’s me. Nice to meet you.”

To be honest, Sean Mason was a little nervous.

In the army, Sean Mason was never nervous, even when faced with thousands of enemy troops and

bullets. And now, in the face of a powerless woman, he got nervous.

Unspeakably nervous.

If his men in the army knew of it, they would be shocked.

“Nice to meet you.”

Cecilia politely replied, but did not want to hug Sean Mason at all. Instead, she stepped back and was

very wary of Sean Mason.

Sean Mason was embarrassed.

Phyllis Moore suddenly pointed at Sean Mason and said, “Mom, this uncle is amazing. He said he

knew my dad. He had just taught a lesson for those little bullies and said he’d teach a lesson for the big

bully who wants to be my father.”

“Well, where’s the big bad guy?”

Phyllis Moore looked around, her eyes flapping.

Cecilia looked at Sean Mason with a bit of surprise in her eyes, “Did you say knew Phyllis’s father?

Liar! I’m her mother and even I don’t know her father.”

“…”

This made Sean Mason even more embarrassed. He laughed, avoiding Cecilia’s eyes with a fake

cough, “Phyllis, I was sent here by your father to protect you and mom, and from now on, I’m your

superhero.”

“What?!”

Phyllis Moore was stunned, “You’re the big bad guy who wants to be my dad?”

“Is uncle bad?”

“No, but…”

Phyllis Moore thought about it and shook her head, “But my dad was a super hero, and you, you’re a

super little hero. I won’t call you a bad guy if you’re not my father.”

Sean Mason was speechless.

He was beaten by his other self in front of his own daughter.

The guests around him were even more speechless than Sean Mason.

Such a dramatic scene was beyond all expectations. Damn, that was not what the script said. What

about “the women married to a vulgar husband”? What about the tension we talked about?

Sean Mason and Cecilia looked perfect for each other as they stood side by side.

Come on!

We were here for a laugh, not a show of affection. Could you please tone it down, be miserable, and

give us a chance to be sarcastic?

Don’t be so selfish!

“What’s going on?”

Carter Moore’s eyebrows were raised. He looked equally surprised.

“It’s…”

Dylan Moore’s smile froze on his face and he said hastily, “He is a smart guy. He was talking nonsense,

obviously trying to impress Cecilia with Phyllis. Dad, don’t worry, I’ll have Isaac blow his cover right

now!”

With that, he winked across the hall at Isaac Moore.

Bang! Bang!

Isaac Moore caught on and clapped his hands. He stood up and walked over to Sean Mason, sneering,

“You are worthy of being grandpa’s favorite grandson-in-law. You knew Cecilia had been raped by Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

another man and had an illegitimate daughter. But not only did you let it go, you protected them like

she’s your own kid. As a cousin, I’m ashamed of myself…”

His voice was loud enough to carry through the hotel lobby.
