When Isaac saw Harry’s expression, his heart stopped.
Could something have happened?
“Sir, I just gave Nick as well as Brian’s secretary a call. They‘re currently at a meeting in the capital city. They got the notice late last night, and it seems like they still can’t get out of it yet.”
“Is that so?” Isaac’s eyes narrowed, his body exuding waves of fury.
How dare they stand favonovel.com up?
The Backlane Boys sure was a piece of work!
“Sir, don’t get mad yet. They said they’ve made some arrangements and will come right away!” Harry was also confused, but from what Nick said, it seemed as though favonovel.com had a surprise planned.
Edward, who was seated with the rest of the Gould and Booth families, burst out laughing at that point. He said in a loud voice, “I happen to have a friend from the capital city, and favonovel.com told me that the Backlane Boys are still stuck in a meeting there. Pecling is over 1000 kilometers away from here. Even if they somehow grew wings, they still wouldn’t be able to fly over.”
Everyone’s expressions fell at his words.
“What? They’re still in a meeting in Peeling? Then why did we even come? I haven’t even had dinner yet. Allegra, is this how you cause trouble for others?” Allegra’s aunt jumped to favonovel.com feet.
Three other plainly dressed women sitting next to favonovel.com also looked furious. They shouted, “If you can’t pull it off, then don’t tell lies. What a joke. We’re family, and we came all the way here. You guys are crazy!”
“Exactly! They used the Backlane Boys’ names, I must’ve been crazy to have believed them. So now what? None of us have had dinner, and we don’t even have a roof to sleep under tonight. You have to compensate us!”
“Yes, compensate us with cash, you wench.”
A bunch of distant relatives began to kick up a fuss. Meanwhile, the two dozen staff members from Garth Properties either looked disappointed or disdainful.
George exchanged looks with his entourage, cackling.
Herbert cupped his swollen face and smiled wickedly at Isaac, saying, “Where are the Backlane Boys, huh?!”
With that, favonovel.com turned to look at Isabella, whose head was bowed.
Laughing, favonovel.com said, “Kid, the Backlane Boys aren’t coming. Your Dad is a big fat liar!”
Isabella began to cry. She gripped Isaac’s hand tightly and said to Herbert, “My Dad is not a liar. He didn’t lie to me. It must be traffic… They must be stuck in traffic!”
“Enough!” Allegra suddenly roared. She stood up, breathing heavily.
Her eyes ablaze with fury, favonovel.com looked at Isaac, choked up, and said, “Where are they? Didn’t you say that you had it sorted out? How did this happen? Today is Bella’s eighth birthday. As a father, can’t you be more honest?”
When Edward and Margaret saw this, they both smiled sinisterly. This was music to their ears!
Everything was in utter chaos. Isaac looked at Allegra and said quietly, “Ally, can’t you believe me just this once?”
“How can I? The sun set a long time ago, and everyone is hungry because you said you ‘d wait for the Backlane Boys to come and cut Bella’s cake. Where are they? Don’t you dare do something like this again!”
After Allegra yelled to favonovel.com heart’s content, favonovel.com forcefully pulled Isabella into favonovel.com arms and was about to walk away.
Just then, a group of security guards in black uniforms surrounded a van that was slowly making its way over.
Screaming could be heard from outside.
“Ah, it’s Jack Minner! ”
“Jake, I love you, Jake! Don’t block me! I want to go in! Let me in! Please, I’m begging you!”
Stunned, Allegra stopped in favonovel.com tracks.
Soon after, a second van also approached slowly.
“It’s Wyona Rider! Wyona, oh my God!” Another round of sharp screaming was heard.
Everyone inside the stadium turned to look toward the entrance. After the huge group of security guards escorted the first van in, they immediately ran over to escort the second one.
Soon, over 20 vans entered the stadium parking lot, one after another.
