Chapter 1189
Mr. Gibson Sr. snorted impatiently, "If you have something to say, hurry up. Don't delay the ceremony."
A young man nearby chuckled and interjected, "Mr. Gibson Sr., I bet she's just here to ask for more money at the last minute. I've heard rumors that Yvonne lost a lot of money on her art exhibit. Maybe she's trying to use the Gibson family's money to fill the hole." As soon as these words left his mouth, murmurs rippled through the crowd. The glances people shot at Yvonne began to shift, suspicion creeping into their eyes.
Some whispered warnings about being cautious in future dealings with the Gibson family, lest they be taken advantage of without realizing it.
The Gibson family had invited many business partners to the wedding, intending to strengthen ties. But now, it seemed like they were the subject of mockery.
Mrs. Gibson Sr. shot a sharp look at the young man and then turned to Winona, "Are you sure you want to go through with this? Today is not only a happy day for Nigel and Yvonne but also a significant day for both our families. If things go well, the Gibson family will stand by the Turner family in the future. But if something tarnishes our reputation, don't expect me to be so forgiving."
Winona smirked, exactly what she had hoped for. She gave a small, almost imperceptible nod, but before she could speak, Joe yanked her back.
"My apologies for this spectacle, Mr. Gibson Sr. My wife is acting out. Please don't take it to heart. Let's continue the wedding and ignore her."
"Oh, come on, Mr. Turner. Did you two not discuss this beforehand?" The young man stirred the pot, casting a mischievous glance at Yvonne on stage before pretending to have an epiphany. "Oh, I get it now. Everyone knows how fond you are of your dear sister. Maybe your wife's just a bit too jealous?"
Joe's expression darkened immediately. He could tolerate people talking about him, but not Yvonne.
His expression icy, he looked straight at Mr. Gibson Sr.
"Mr. Gibson Sr., we're about to become family. It's not appropriate for your younger generation to gossip about my sister like this. No matter what, she'll soon be your daughter-in-law, not just some random person."
Mr. Gibson Sr.'s face tightened with displeasure.
Joe pressed on, his tone even colder. "If someone dares to insult the future Gibson family's daughter-in-law in public, should I take that as them not respecting Mr. Gibson Sr.?"NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
The young man's face flushed with anger, "Joe, stop trying to stir up trouble!"
"Enough! All of you, sit down!" Mr. Gibson Sr. snapped, glaring at the young man before turning to Joe. "He's young and doesn't know better Don't hold it against him
Let's move on with the wedding."
Winona, sensing her moment slipping away, called out urgently, "I'm not interrupting this wedding to ask for more money. I'm doing this because this marriage isn't right for the Gibson family." She paused, letting the weight of her words sink in "Yes, I'm from the Turner family, but I stand for justice above all."
Joe shot her a warning look, but Winona ignored him and faced Mr. Gibson Sr.
"Mr. Gibson Sr., may I come up to the stage?"
Mr. Gibson Sr., visibly irritated, nodded slightly.
Winona nodded back, walking up with a USB drive in hand. "I won't say much. Let's just let the video speak for itself."
With that, she shot a meaningful glance at Yvonne before playing the scandalous footage.
As soon as the video started, the room erupted into chaos, with shocked gasps and scattered murmurs filling the air.
"Turn it off! Stop playing that!
"Winona, what are you trying to do?"
Yvonne and Joe both shouted at the same time.
"Oh, wow! Here I was thinking it was just a negotiation for more money. Turns out the Turner family is a lot more liberal than I thought," the
mocking smile at Joe. "Mr. Tel
