Chapter 335 Forced Marriage Jknocked on the door for a long time, but Benson wouldn't cout. As a result, she had no choice but to look for Liam.
Liam, who had been with Edward accepting congratulations from the guests, ended up being dragged to a corner by her. Furrowing his brows in displeasure, he demanded, "Why aren't you upstairs making sure everything is ready? What are you doing down here?" "Benson locked himself in his room and refused to cout, no matter what." Jslapped her thigh, looking anxious. "The guests are already here. He won't be able to make it in tif he doesn't change into his attire soon." Liam hadn't expected Benson to throw a tantrum at a tlike this. His expression darkened as he shot her an irritated glance. "This is all thanks to you. You've spoiled him with no sense of boundaries." Jwasn't happy with that. She wanted to argue but didn't dare and instead muttered under her breath, "Why blme? If anyone is to be blamed, it's Sophie. If she hadn't shown up pregnant, would Edward be forcing Benson to marry her? "Of course he's upset. He's being forced to marry someone he doesn't love and won't be able to help with his career!" Liam pointed a finger at her before heading upstairs with fury.

If you dare embarrass the Gray family today, your grandfather won't let you off. I won't acknowledge you as my son anymore either." Two minutes later, the door unlocked from the inside, revealing the dejected Benson standing there.
"Hurry up and get him changed." Having no tto comfort him, Jrushed to call for people to assist. Benson stood there like a lifeless puppet, letting them dress him up. He stood in front of the mirror in a white suit. Staring at his reflection, he felt dazed. If only the bride were Sierra...
"Alright, let's go. It's time." The best man noticed him spacing out, checked his watch, and quickly pushed him forward.
At around 10:30 am, Sierra and Theo turned to head inside the banquet hall after noticing that most of the guests had arrived.
"Theo, Sierra, over here." Edward was dressed festively and beamed as he waved them over with affection. Sierra smiled and quickened her pace, but Theo was worried she might sprain her ankle and held her hand firmly. "Slow down." His protective gesture made the people around them smile. Someone seated next to Edward remarked, "Even heroes fall for beauty. Looks like Mr. Theo is no exception!" Edward was amused rather than annoyed, nodding with a laugh. "Yes, the two of them have a good relationship." When they reached him, Theo pulled out a chair for Sierra and carefully poured her a glass of water.

"Are you tired?" With a smile, Edward looked at them. He reached into his pocket and pulled out two pieces of candy, placing them in Sierra's hand. "These are just for you."
Theo found his blatant favoritism m both amusing and exasperating, When she held up the Candy proudly, he indulged her with a smile. "If you like them, I'll have someone bring you more later." Watching both Edward and Theo dote on her so much, many guests couldn't help but feel envious.
Just as everyone was quietly marveling at how cherished Sierra was within the Gray family, the emcee took the stage, his voice ringing through the hall. "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome! We're honored to have you all here today to celebrate... Now, let's welcour groom, Mr. Benson!" A round of applause erupted as a tall figure dressed in white appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Though Benson's eyes were dull and lifeless, his carefully styledappearance still made him strikingly handsome, drawing gasps from many women in attendance. "Mr. Benson is still as dashing as ever. Too bad he's taken." "I've never heard of Sophie before. Which wealthy family is she from?"
