The entire venue fell silent as everyone turned to watch. Scott looked at Sarah with confusion.
The Chancer and Garnett families rushed over James grabbed Charlotte’s arm, “Charlotte, what’s wrong?”
“James, she tore up our marriage certificate and our wedding photos she deliberately scratched out my face.”
She produced the marriage certificate torn in half, while Mrs. Garnett held up the wedding photo with the defaced face.
The crowd erupted in shock, suddenly remembering that Sarah was James’s ex–wife.
“Well, what do you expect? An ex–wife coming to a wedding is obviously here to cause trouble.”
“But to do something like this at such an occasion – how shameful! No wonder James divorced her!”
“Look at the poor bride crying her eyes out, how pitiful”
Charlotte continued sobbing, “Miss Sanders, I kindly invited you to our wedding. Why would you do this to me? You already took so much money and property in the divorce. James never mistreated you. If you’re unhappy, you could take it out on me – hit me, yell at me, anything. But why do this?”
Mrs. Chancer pointed her finger at Sarah, “Inviting you was the worst luck ever! I said we shouldn’t invite her! None of this
would have happened. What a curse!”
Lucy gloated, “Sarah, now everyone can see your true colors. What do you have to say for yourself?”
James held Charlotte protectively, looking at Sarah in disbelief. “How could you do this?”
What a joke. How ridiculous!
Sarah stood up, and the murmuring instantly stopped. She looked at the marriage certificate in Charlotte’s hand, then at the wedding photo. “I don’t even know where you kept your marriage certificate and photos How could I have torn them? You and James make a good couple – why would I tear up your certificate? What do you two have to do with me?
Charlotte shed more tears, “Miss Sanders, I know you’re upset seeing James marry again, but it’s already done. We’ve tried everything we could to avoid hurting you, but your relationship with James didn’t break down overnight. Why would you destroy my happiness?”
She cried helplessly, seeming to have spent all her energy as she leaned against James’s chest.
James felt heartbroken seeing Charlotte like this. “Charlotte, stop. This is all my fault”
Sarah watched them expressionlessly and continued, “Miss Garnett, please answer my question: where were the marriage certificate and wedding photo kept?”
Charlotte finally lifted her head from James’s chest, “They were in the second–floor lounge, for relatives and friends to see
Sarah said coolly, “Miss Garnett, I’ve never been to the second floor. I don’t know where your marriage certificate and photos were You need evidence for such accusations.”
“I asked the server. He said you left your seat while I was changing into my reception dress. Everyone else you left your seat. He even saw you at the stairway corner,
eating, but
“First, the server spilled wine on me, and I only left my seat to clean it off. Second, I went straight to the restroom, never to the second floor Third, how many times must I say this? James is just your husband, he has nothing to do with me. Whether he gets married or not doesn’t matter to me,” Sarah shrugged.
Lucy sneered, “If you don’t care, why did you come to the wedding?”
