Surprise Marriage to a Billionaire
Chapter 157: Wipe Your Drool

Chapter 157: Wipe Your Drool

The engagement party for Dina and Paul was held at the grand Smith Estate. With Paul’s mother preoccupied with his father’s election campaign, Dina took the lead in organizing the event, alongside her mother Sylvia. The Smith family generously covered all the costs, ensuring the occasion was nothing short of extravagant.

Inside Paul’s room, Dina was poised to slip into her stunning gown for the night, but the mood took an unexpected turn when Paul pulled her into a moment of intimacy. Frustratingly, he reached his peak before she could even catch her breath.

"Dammit, Paul!" she exclaimed, annoyance flooding her voice. "Why can’t you wait a little before getting your orgasm?" Her cheeks flushed crimson as he abruptly detached himself, a frown forming on his face.

"It’s getting late, Dina. Get ready; the guests will be arriving any minute!" he replied, retreating to the bathroom.

Cursing under her breath, Dina followed him, hoping to salvage the moment. As she stepped into the bathroom, she leaned in for another kiss, but Paul gently pushed her away.

"I can’t anymore," he said, grabbing a towel and hurrying out of the bathroom.

"Fuck!" Dina barked in frustration. This was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, yet it felt like a joke.

’It’s that bitch’s fault!’ Rain’s smirk replayed in her mind, igniting a fire of resentment within her. "I will make your life miserable!" she vowed silently, a determined glint in her eyes.

As the evening progressed, the party at the Smith Estate came to life. Prominent figures from the worlds of business and politics filled the grand hall. Dina forced a smile as she greeted guests, all the while plotting her next move against Rain, the thorn in her side.

"When you see this woman, make sure you bump into her and ruin her dress, alright?" Dina instructed one of the waiters, showing him a picture of Rain on her phone. She slipped him some cash, adding, "If you pull this off, I’ll make sure you get a nice bonus."

"Understood, Ma’am," the waiter replied with a nod, a hint of excitement in his eyes as he pocketed the money. Satisfied, Dina turned back to greet more guests at the entrance, where her family mingled with Paul’s family.

As more prominent figures arrived, the crowd began to move toward the outdoor garden, where the festivities were set to begin.

Dina’s anticipation grew as she watched the guests settle in. The garden was beautifully adorned with twinkling lights and elegant decorations, creating a magical atmosphere. Paul stood at her side, and together they appeared perfect as a couple. However, she noticed his grip on her hand loosen as his eyes darted in a particular direction.

Following his gaze, Dina’s heart sank when she saw Rain approaching with Aunt Melanie. She tightened her grip on Paul’s hand.

"Wipe your drool and look away!" she whispered through gritted teeth, forcing a poker smile at the guests. Rain was undeniably stealing everyone’s attention without even trying, and it infuriated Dina.

Rain wore an emerald green gown that hugged her curves perfectly, accentuating her hourglass figure. The fabric shimmered under the soft garden lights, catching the eye of every guest. The gown featured a sweetheart neckline that beautifully framed her cleavage and delicate straps that added a touch of elegance.

The back was tastefully cut, revealing just enough skin to maintain an air of sophistication. Then she let her auburn hair cascade in loose waves over her shoulders, contrasting beautifully with the rich green of her dress, while her striking green eyes sparkled with confidence and allure.

She paired the gown with minimalistic gold jewelry—simple hoop earrings and a slender bracelet—that highlighted her features without overpowering her look. The overall effect was one of understated glamour, an embodiment of elegance, effortlessly drawing the attention of everyone in the room.

"All eyes are on you, just as I expected," Aunt Melanie whispered to Rain as they walked toward her father. Rain had chosen a simple gown from the walk-in closet, not wanting to stand out too much, but it seemed Aunt Melanie was right—almost everyone was staring at her.

It was a shame that her husband wasn’t around yet to witness how the men were ogling her. Her mobile phone remained turned off, still a reflection of her bad mood. Although she was curious about Alexander’s side of the story, she was still upset with him.

’How could he let that woman hug him?’ she grunted silently. The photo clearly showed Carla with her arms wrapped around him. ’He should have dodged her!’

"We’re here," Aunt Melanie said as they reached her father, Tim, who simply nodded in acknowledgement.

"Where is your husband?" Sylvia questioned a hint of disapproval in her tone.

"He’ll be late..." Rain informed.

"Since he’s not here yet, why don’t you go entertain Michael? It looks like his eyes are glued on you," Dina taunted, a smirk on her face.

Rain demurely smiled and shot back, "How about you pull away your soon-to-be husband instead? He’s one of those ogling me."

"You!" Dina exclaimed, taken aback.

"That’s enough, you two!" Tim interjected firmly. He turned to Dina and Paul, saying, "Go entertain the important guests." With that, Dina left with Paul, and Rain led Aunt Melanie to a nearby table to sit down.

"I’ll get you some fruit juice," Rain said, heading toward the buffet table to prepare something for her Aunt Melanie. She preferred to serve her aunt herself, not trusting the waiters to get it right.

"Hello, Rain..."

It was Michael’s voice, and as she expected, he was already beside her in his wheelchair.

"Hello, Michael," she replied, maintaining a blank expression.

"Where is your husband?" he asked, curiosity lacing his tone.

"He’s running late but will be here soon..." she assured him.

"I heard you married a nobody. Why not just divorce him? Are you worried that I wouldn’t satisfy you in bed, which is why you didn’t want to be my wife?" He raised an eyebrow, a smirk creeping onto his lips.

Rain felt a mix of annoyance and disdain at his words but kept her composure. "My marriage is none of your concern, Michael. Besides, I’m perfectly happy with my decision."

"But you married a nobody, Rain. If I’m not mistaken, he’s just some technician or something, right? A laborer?" Dina interjected, her tone dripping with contempt.

"Seriously, you should consider divorcing him. I’m more than willing to take you back," Michael added, a malicious grin spreading across his face as he shamelessly eyed Rain from head to toe.
