Married to a Secret Billionaire (Stella Taylor)

Chapter 91 This Marriage Is Invalid

"Of course!" Amelia agreed without hesitation.

Bringing a best friend along was not a big deal. This princess's best friend was surely someone rich and noble, and perhaps she was from one of the four major families in Emberfall...

If she could please Audrey's friend, it would mean having an extra helper and another path to take!

Amelia turned her eyes and approached Audrey, pretending to be intimate with her.

"Miss Martinez, where is your friend right now? If she's not available, I can send someone to pick her up immediately! Don't worry. Leave it to me, and I will definitely bring that young lady safely here!"

"No need to trouble yourself." Audrey smiled lightly. "My friend came with me and is currently upstairs. Well, after all, this party is hosted by the Taylor family. If I want to bring someone, I naturally have to get your permission!"

"Miss Martinez, it's so thoughtful of you!" Amelia smiled and turned to instruct a few waiters, "Follow Miss Martinez's arrangements and make sure her friend sits at the main table as well!"

"Miss Taylor." Audrey raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you and your parents sitting at the main table? Is that appropriate?"

"Oh, what's inappropriate about that?" Madison interjected, "Tonight, being able to invite you and your friend is our honor. The hotel... is also honored by your presence!"

She used all the nice words she could think of at that moment.

"Miss Martinez, don't let your friend stay alone in the room. Please bring her over quickly!"

"Alright, thank you."

Audrey turned around and made a phone call.

Not long after, the door of the party hall reopened. Everyone's gaze turned to see what Miss Martinez's friend looked like.

Amelia was also curious and craned her neck to see.

However, she never expected that the person walking gracefully into the party hall from the entrance was...

Stella?

Amelia's mind went blank as if something had hit her head, leaving her in a daze.

Henry and Madison's expressions changed instantly as well. They stared blankly at Stella with their eyes wide open.

How could Audrey's best friend... be her?

At this moment, the guests began to whisper and cast strange looks at Stella.

But they had to admit that Stella was indeed gorgeous and eye-catching after being dressed up by Audrey.

She wore a light beige dress, exuding an ethereal aura, with long hair cascading down her waist. The aquamarine gemstone around her neck complemented her fair skin.

She stood hand in hand with Audrey, and the two of them looked like a pair of sisters who had just walked out of a fairyland, leaving everyone in awe.

"This is my good friend." Audrey smiled and said, "Miss Taylor, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with her, right?"

Amelia's face turned pale as she clenched her fists. Her lips were trembling, and she was unable to say a word.

"Stella?" Henry's voice trembled. "You and Miss Martinez... You..."

"Mr. Taylor, we have always been good friends!" Audrey smiled and then pretended to be displeased and looked at Stella. "What's wrong? Did you never mention me to your family? You're really not loyal!" Stella had been looking at her with a smile but didn't speak.

"Impossible!" Amelia glared at Stella fiercely. "What tricks are you playing? How can someone like you be friends with Miss Martinez? Besides, weren't you just..."

"Just what?" Henry frowned.

Amelia stopped halfway through her sentence, her expression becoming even uglier.

"Why are you panicking, Amelia?" Stella smiled lightly, with sharp lights in her eyes. "You seem to be surprised to see me here."

Amelia glared at her and bit her lip tightly.

"I was indeed taken the wrong way by you just now and stayed in the basement for a while. "Stella sneered and said, "But you didn't make me too lonely, and you even brought a few mice. I guess those are all the pets you like to keep in ordinary times, right?"

"You..."

"Stella, what did you say?" Henry's eyes darkened as he looked at Amelia. "Did you take Stella to the basement and put rats in there?"

Amelia trembled, looking at her father in fear.

"How dare you!" Henry scolded angrily.

He didn't have time to figure out how Stella and Audrey knew each other. All he knew was that Stella was now holding hands and being close to Audrey, just like sisters!

Henry wasn't foolish. Of course, he knew which side he should support!

The guests at the party looked at each other as if they wanted to watch a good show.

"Amelia, stop embarrassing me here!" Henry felt ashamed. "Go home right now! I don't want to see you!"

"Dad..."

"Get lost!"

Amelia's face turned red with anger, tears welling up in her eyes. She glared at Stella resentfully, turned around, and ran out of the party hall.

Madison wanted to persuade Henry but didn't dare to. She could only watch her daughter being wronged and force a smile.

Only then did Henry calm down a bit. He put on a different face and smiled at Audrey.

"Miss Martinez, please rest assured. I will definitely discipline Amelia strictly in the future! Today's incident might have been a misunderstanding. I..." "Mr. Taylor." Audrey coldly smiled and said, "I won't interfere in your family affairs, but when it comes to my friend, I will definitely stand up for her!" "Yes, yes!" Henry broke out in a sweat.

Audrey glanced at him and then pulled Stella to sit in the seat of honor.

The party continued, but a few pairs of eyes nearby were closely watching them.

"Mr. Smith, how is Stella friends with Miss Martinez?"

"Yeah, well... Could there be some hidden story behind this?"

A hint of gloom flashed through Eric's eyes, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Stella was Liam's wife, but she was friends with Audrey...

Humph, besides proving that Liam was Noah, what else could it explain?

"Mr. Smith." Someone whispered, "The truth should be revealed now. Should we take action?"

"Let's not rush." Eric raised his hand to stop the man. "Without solid evidence to prove Liam's identity, we shouldn't startle the enemy. Otherwise, we can't explain to Mr. Christopher Martinez and he'll think we're just bluffing."

"So, Mr. Smith, what should we do then?"

"Wait and see." Eric smirked. "Keep a close eye on them. We'll surely find their flaw!"

Audrey excitedly described to Liam how she rescued Stella and helped her out of the situation.

"Noah, you wouldn't believe it. Amelia's face turned livid, and her eyes widened in shock. It was really ridiculous!"

"Heh, but Stella remained calm and composed. The basement was so dark, with rats running around, and yet she still cared about my safety despite her own miserable situation. She thought she was causing trouble for me."

"Noah, I like this sister-in-law!" Audrey spoke her mind. "She's so much better than Gwen!"

"Ahem!" Caleb gave her a warning look and then looked at Liam who looked serious.

Liam sat silently, his wine glass almost empty.

He furrowed his brows, a hint of unhappiness flashing in his eyes.

He didn't expect Amelia to be so bold!

If it weren't for Audrey accidentally stumbling upon Stella, Stella would have probably suffered.

Liam clenched his fists tightly and put them near his mouth, looking so fierce and stern.

"Hey!" Oliver smiled carelessly and looked at Audrey. "Do you like this sister-in-law? But it's not up to you alone!"

The implication was that Noah's marriage was not up to Noah himself.

"Ha-ha, that's right." Caleb chuckled awkwardly and said. After a while, he whispered, "Moreover, Noah's marriage... is invalid in the first place."

"What did you say?" Oliver and Audrey almost jumped up.

Liam was also stunned. He looked calm on the surface but was a maelstrom of churning emotions inside.

"Invalid?" He asked hoarsely, "What do you mean?"
