Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 11 Too Late

After a glance at the cab, he followed it on an electric scooter.

Meanwhile, not only had Walt booked the entire The Clouds, but he even invited almost all of their university friends.

To the public, it was a grand wedding for Heather, but privately, they all knew it was an alumni reunion.

Walt was dressed to his nines that day. The second he arrived, he became the center of attention.

The attention and flattery he received from the others inflated his ego.

“Heather’s here!”

“As expected of the most popular girl in university! She’s beautiful!”

Right then, Heather came in, walking down the red carpet.

She was wearing a red gown, and her intricate makeup made her beauty elevate to the next level.

Her alluring appearance left everyone, including Walt, spellbound.

The resentment in Walt grew when he thought about how the attractive woman chose Alex, the loser, over him.

While he was adjusting his tie, he kept his head low and sneered.

When he lifted his head again, a poised smile had replaced that sneer. He then walked over to Heather.

“Heather, you’re here! I’m happy to see you!” Walt exclaimed when he reached her.

“I make good on my promise, and I hope you’ll stick to your words, too,” Heather calmly told him.

“Heather, you still don’t have faith in me. I only want you to understand what’s on my mind by making that request. Why would I ever put you in a spot if you only wanted to borrow money?” Walt said before holding his arm up.

After a moment of hesitation, Heather hooked her arm around his.

Then, she continued her way down the red carpet with Walt as everyone stared at them.
