Chapter 409: He Did Not Attend the Birthday Banquet

Approaching noon, Yanxi still hadn't arrived.

Father Xia and Mother Xia were both getting anxious.

Most of the relatives who came today did so to see Yanxi.

They doted on their daughter, and since she had married into a good family, naturally, they liked to boast to relatives about how great their daughter and son-in-law were.

If Yanxi didn't show up, who knows what kind of sour, snide remarks these relatives would make.

Xia Yiwan took her phone and quietly left the banquet hall.

She went to the washroom, entered a stall, and called Yanxi.

At first the call went through, but after ringing for a few times with no answer, she couldn't get through anymore.

Xia Yiwan gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles turning white.

Hadn't he promised her he'd get here before noon?

Why hadn't he come?

Xia Yiwan bit hard on her lip, feeling as if she had plunged into an ice cellar.

She didn't know how long it took before she slowly came to her senses.
