Chapter 284 Good Child
On the day of Mabel and Albert's wedding.
The wedding venue was decorated simply yet warmly, with friends and family all there to bless the newlyweds.
Timothy pushed Elizabeth, who was sitting in a wheelchair, to the wedding venue.
People in their social circle were quite surprised to see Timothy and Elizabeth appear together.
Timothy and Elizabeth—hadn't they already gotten divorced? Why were they suddenly showing up together at the wedding?
Timothy wore a well-tailored black suit with a crisp white shirt and black tie, making him look refined and dignified.
Timothy's movements as he pushed the wheelchair were gentle.
Elizabeth wore an elegant long dress, her long hair flowing smoothly over her shoulders, with a gentle smile on her face.
Chris also came to attend Albert's wedding today. When he saw that Timothy had actually come with Elizabeth, his expression changed slightly.
Chris was secretly calculating in his mind whether this would affect their plan.
He'd have to hurry back later and discuss this with Maddox and the others.
The head of the Sanchez family, seeing Timothy and Elizabeth, quickly came over to chat.
Who in their circle didn't know now how capable Elizabeth was, having quietly taken control of the Sherman Group?
Elizabeth looked up at Timothy, and Timothy instantly understood what she meant.
The two were very in sync.
Timothy smiled and said to Cassius Sanchez, "Mr. Sanchez, let's chat later. I'm taking Elizabeth to see the bride."
Cassius smiled and waved for the Sanchez family members to take Timothy and the others to Mabel's dressing room.
Cassius never imagined that his youngest son Albert, who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, would have this kind of ability—to marry into the Simpson family.
This marriage meant that the Sanchez family now had connections with both Timothy and the Simpson family, and Mabel also had a good relationship with Elizabeth.
In short, the Sanchez family was happy today.
In the dressing room, Mabel was receiving final touches from the makeup artist.
She wore a pure white wedding dress with a train, decorated with lace and jewels, making her look very beautiful.
A hint of nervousness flickered in her eyes. She was really getting married—Alfonso must be very disappointed in her.
When she heard the knock on the door and turned to see Elizabeth and Timothy coming in, a bright smile bloomed on her face.
"Elizabeth, Mr. Robinson, you're here." Mabel's voice was full of joy.
Her voice was joyful, but there was no joy in her eyes.
The makeup artist tactfully left.
Elizabeth looked at Mabel, her gaze gentle. "Today our Mabel is a beautiful bride."
Mabel smiled.
Just then, Albert pushed the door open. He wore a black suit and looked energized.
When he saw Timothy in the room, he instantly became a bit nervous, but quickly showed a slightly awkward smile. "Mr. Robinson, Ms. Penrose, thank you for coming."
Timothy nodded slightly.
Albert smiled as he handed Mabel the drink he was holding, then went out to greet the guests.
At that moment, at Border Ridge City Airport.
Maya looked at the Border Ridge City Airport sign in shock, so angry that her whole body hurt. "Alfonso, didn't you say you were taking me to Solstice for treatment? Why are we in Border Ridge City?"
Alfonso smiled gently. "Mom, let's go to Border Ridge City General Hospital for tests first. If they can't figure it out here, we'll go to Solstice."
Maya didn't know what to say for a moment. Had Alfonso figured something out?
"Mom, why are you looking at me like that?" Alfonso opened a bottle of water and handed it to Maya. "Mom, have some water. It'll take about an hour to get to Border Ridge City General Hospital."
Maya saw that Alfonso's attitude toward her hadn't changed at all, and she relaxed, figuring Alfonso hadn't realized she was lying to him.
She finally felt at ease and took the water, sipping it slowly.
They left the airport and got in the car.
The scenery outside the window kept changing.
Alfonso casually asked, "Mom, don't you think Border Ridge City has changed a lot?"
Maya looked out the window. Border Ridge City indeed had many new high-rise buildings. She nodded. "Yes, it's changed so much. We left in such a hurry back then—it's been almost ten years now."
Alfonso smiled slightly. "Yes, Border Ridge City has developed very quickly. Once you're better, I'll take you around Border Ridge City."
Maya relaxed and began chatting with Alfonso about the changes in Border Ridge City, temporarily forgetting her earlier nervousness.
She talked about some old friends and former neighbors, and Alfonso responded from time to time. The atmosphere between mother and son seemed quite relaxed.
Before the car reached Border Ridge City General Hospital, at another intersection, Alfonso got out of the car first.
He said gently, "Mom, you go to the hospital first. I need to meet someone important."
After saying this, he closed the car door.
Maya wanted to open the door to call him back, but the driver had already driven away.
"Stop the car!" she said angrily to the driver.
The bodyguard in the passenger seat turned around and explained respectfully, "Mr. Carr told us not to stop. We're going to the hospital now."
Maya patted her chest, furious. Alfonso really was her good son.
Maya reached for her phone, only to discover it wasn't there!
Alfonso watched as the car carrying Maya gradually drove away. The gentle smile on his face instantly disappeared, and his eyes turned cold.
A black sedan drove up and stopped beside him. A bodyguard opened the door, and Alfonso got in.
There was also a six-year-old boy in the car. The little boy, Silas Carr, had a temperament somewhat like Alfonso's.
Silas smiled at Alfonso. "Dad."
Alfonso nodded gently. "Good boy."
Alfonso took out his phone and dialed a number. "Has the wedding started? Proceed according to plan."
