Even After Death by Lilting Champ

Chapter 267

The Carltons were already on the scene. Chloe stood out the most. She wore a cocktail dress paired with a shawl, looking elegant and dignified.

She held onto Chris’ arm and had a bright smile on her face. It was as if her biological daughter was the one getting engaged.

Ethan felt uncomfortable when he looked at her smile.

Brent quickly replied to Ethan’s question, “Mr. and Mrs. Carlton came ahead of time. They’re here to mingle with the guests. Something went wrong with Ms. Carlton’s dress, so the people worked overtime last night to get it fixed.

“Ms. Carlton went to get her makeup done and tried the dress on early this morning. She should be here soon.”

Ethan knew Marina well. It was the engagement party that she had wanted so badly. She wouldn’t be late if she could help it. She would want to come as soon as possible and show off. But it was getting late and she still hadn’t arrived. Ethan found that to be weird.

All the equipment on site had been checked several times. Everything was set. Everyone was waiting for Marina to arrive so that the engagement ceremony could begin.
