Chapter 472 - Wedding Guests Disperse

Charlotte looked at the dumbfounded Turners and harrumphed coldly while following closely behind Cheyenne, Lucas, and Amelia. They left the hotel lobby.

There was dead silence in the ballroom.

Now that things had developed to this point, no one dared to say a word.

Even Damon and Matthew, who had come to confront Lucas, as well as the helmsmen of top LA families, all fell silent and didn't dare to chase after Lucas as they watched him leave.

After all, there was a terrifying figure in the ballroom, so they didn't dare to create trouble at all.

In fact, they were all anxious, terrified, and on tenterhooks.

Even a fool would be able to tell that Edmund was clearly going to stand on Lucas's side, so they didn't know what the Coles would do to those who had come to confront Lucas and make things hard for him!

Edmund glanced at the sullen-faced Eddie coldly and said indifferently, "Most people tend to belittle those who are inferior and suck up to those who are more powerful.. However, it's too harsh to be doing this to your family! You have an excellent grandson-in-law, but you don't even know how to cherish him at all. No one can help you!"

As Eddie was being reprimanded, his face turned red, and he lowered his head while trembling. He muttered softly, "You… you're right!"

He was now full of regrets. If he had known earlier that Lucas had some ties with the noble Edmund and ended up saving his life, he would never have treated Lucas like this today!

As long as Lucas put in some good words for the Turners in front of Edmund and asked him to stay for Dylan's wedding, it would definitely have given the Turners' status a huge boost. It would only have been a matter of time before they became a top family in LA.

Unfortunately, he had done something wrong, and all of this would remain only as his imagination!

Edmund turned to look at Robert and his family again, and he couldn't help frowning when he saw Nikki again.

According to what Cheyenne had said, Nikki might look weak and vulnerable on the surface, but she was actually very vicious and ruthless. She was truly an ingrate, as she hadn't hesitated to harm Cheyenne and do so repeatedly even after receiving her help.

Edmund shook his head and frowned at Robert. "You must never neglect the education of your children and grandchildren! Your son's and granddaughter's characters are really unacceptable. Stop thinking of trying to expand your company and connections. It's time you start handling the things that you ought to manage!"

Robert's face was as red as a tomato, and he lowered his head in embarrassment while nodding in compliance.

Just a few minutes ago, he had been singing high praises about his son and even tried to get his granddaughter acquainted with Edmund. But in the blink of an eye, his son and granddaughter were criticized for having unacceptable characters. From now on, they would probably become the subject of ridicule. And to make matters worse, he even got chided by Edmund. He was chagrined and full of regret.

Edmund looked at Sam, seemingly having expected better from him. He reprimanded, "You're already advanced in years. How are you still so poor at judging others? You should sever ties with him before it's too late!"

Sam looked at Robert with a bitter smile, nodded, and sighed guiltily. "Edmund, you're right. I'm far inferior to you when it comes to judging people's character!"

Robert's body stiffened!

He wasn't a fool, so he could naturally tell that Edmund was referring to him.

Sam's reaction also showed that he would probably choose to unfriend Robert, thus causing the latter to lose a backer forever!

The members of the big and powerful families of LA didn't dare to say a word and quickly lowered their heads. Oh dear! Edmund will probably criticize us next!

Edmund glanced at this group of people and said coldly, "I've heard a little about what happened between you and Lucas. You're all a bunch of dignified figures of status, and yet you're here to bully a young man in his twenties just for the sake of sucking up to someone more powerful. You people are really shameless!"

These helmsmen of wealthy families were so ashamed and guilty that they wished they could bury their heads in the ground.

"I don't care what you people think. All of you who offended him just now, go and apologize to him! If he refuses to forgive you, I don't think there's a need for your families to continue to exist!"

After Edmund said this, the helmsmen were overwhelmed with fear. He stopped looking at the expressions on their faces and left the hotel together with his granddaughter, Alexis.

When the Coles completely disappeared from the hotel, the people who had been holding their breaths quickly came back to their senses.

It was just too… terrifying!

Although Edmund didn't lose his temper and lash out at them just now, his mighty aura and status as the helmsman of the Cole family made everyone horrified.

The first to react were the helmsmen of the top LA families.

They reacted immediately after recovering from the fear. Their top priority now was to quickly get Lucas's forgiveness. Otherwise, with the Coles' influence, getting rid of them would be a piece of cake!

They couldn't be bothered to bid farewell to Damon, Matthew, and the others. Moreover, they couldn't be bothered to say any nonsense to the Turners and simply scurried out of the hotel.

Damon and Matthew both looked rather sullen, but they couldn't care less and also hurriedly left the hotel with their respective companions.

Many of the guests of the Turners also left after bidding farewell to Eddie.

Dylan's wedding was considered to have been completely ruined, and the reputation of the Turners had also been tarnished.

Relatives tended to only be close to each other on the surface, and most people stayed connected to their relatives in hopes that their relatives would be able to give them a helping hand during times in need.

But they had all seen clearly everything that had happened today.

The Turners were so cruel and harsh even to their close family members, let alone normal relatives. If something really happened, the Turners would definitely flee faster than anyone else. How could they possibly be willing to help them?

The Turners all seemed extremely gloomy and were trying their best to make them stay, but none of them was willing to stay.

Sam looked at Robert with a complicated expression. In fact, he had already talked to Robert about Edmund's taboos and strong abhorrence for those who liked relying on connections to climb the social ladder. But Robert had been all muddled up and let the temptation of sucking up to the Coles get to his head, thinking that he would be able to let the Herons rise to power and save themselves at least a decade of hard work. However, it turned out to be a tremendous loss.

He didn't expect Robert's son and granddaughter to have such unacceptable characters. Previously, he had still thought that they were obedient and capable. Edmund is right. I'm indeed terrible at judging people!

"Sam, we've been friends for decades. You…" Robert still wanted to give it one last try.

Sam looked deeply at his old friend of decades and suddenly felt like he was a complete stranger.

"Robert, you… you're on your own now!" With that, Sam also turned around and left.

Although he and Robert had been old comrades for years, he had also helped the Herons countless times before, and he no longer owed Robert anything in the future.

Watching his old friend walk farther and farther away, Robert understood that he probably wouldn't be able to salvage things. Thus, he was enraged.

Smack!

Smack!

He slapped Justin hard on his face, followed by Nikki!

Both their faces immediately reddened and swelled.

"Bastards!"
