Perfect CEO
Chapter 217
When Hector slapped his thighs, Alice shot him a glance and asked, “Hector, what's wrong?”
Seeing that the old man did not stop hitting his own thighs, Alice was scared out of her wits.
“Help, where's the doctor?” she yelled.
Shortly after, they moved to the lounge and could no longer be bothered with any ceremonies.
Alice had initially wanted to go on stage, yet now, she had given up the thought. She only wanted Hector to be fine.
Felicia stood next to Patrick, waiting for the emcee to announce their names so that they could go on stage.
Never in her life had she felt so nervous. She kept taking deep breaths.
Although she was not getting married on this day, she would officially carry Patrick's last name after the day was over. The man would belong to her, and she would become the envy of every woman.
Moreover, she would also become the leading lady of the Ashton family, and no one would dare to snatch her position away. The more she thought about this, the calmer she became.
I can't embarrass myself later. I absolutely can't.
Patrick strode onto the stage as Felicia followed hurriedly behind. Suddenly, she twisted her ankle and almost fell.
Rachelle helped Felicia up and said, “Felicia, be careful.”
“I know,” replied Felicia in an icy tone.
She lifted her dress, raised her chin, then walked onto the stage pridefully.
The couple's appearance made everyone cheer and clap in delight.
The reporters' cameras were facing both of them directly while live-streaming the ceremony to the public.
The engagement ceremony was a pivotal event in Avenport. Thus, everyone was looking forward to it, eager to witness it live.
Standing beside Patrick, Felicia looked at his handsome face. However, on such an occasion, Patrick was not afraid at all. His strong aura was enough to intimidate everyone.
She pursed her lips. I'll make this powerful man submit to me. I'll also make him fall in love with me and treat me as his one and only.
While the emcee was introducing the couple, Patrick's expression was darkened slightly. At that moment, the phone in his pocket rang.
At first, he refused to pick it up. Yet, when he saw that it was the subordinate who followed after Gwendolyn, he answered the call, pretending as if no one was around.
“What is it?” he asked.
“Mr. Lowen, Ms. Ashton got into a van, but we didn't manage to stop it. I heard from Camille that the loan sharks wanted to collect a debt, so they kidnapped Juliette. Ms. Ashton is cooperating with them because she wants to rescue her daughter,” said the voice over the phone.
Patrick's face fell after he heard what his subordinate said. He instructed, “Check their whereabouts. I'll be there right away.”
Hanging up the phone, Patrick took the microphone from the emcee and said, “The engagement has been canceled. Everyone can stay and feast. Enjoy your meal!”
With that, he walked off the stage. Felicia was stunned. She then quickly came back to her senses and went after him.
