Chapter 557
Meanwhile, the wedding hosted at the Times Hotel had just ended with a blast. This time, it wasn't just Wendy's
neighbors from her community that had attended the wedding; even the people from Ed's village all showed up.
Matthew didn't accept any of their gifts or cash offerings for the wedding.
This wedding was no longer about the money; after all, how could they even put a price on all the wedding
convoy and the booking fees for the whole Times Hotel? Matthew and Julian simply wanted to thank Ed for the
kindness he showed them in the past.
Of course, Wendy and Ed's neighbors were extremely pleased by the whole situation. They had actually
discussed the matter as they were on the way to the hotel they all agreed that they'd be willing to pay up to

10,000 in your pocket; that was why they were all willing to offer such great amounts.
However, what Matthew did cas a pleasant surprise to all of them. They were naturally overjoyed when they
heard that he refused to take any wedding offerings. Since they were all working-class people, a few thousand
meant quite a lot to them. All of these people were also envious of Ed. If only we had two rich friends like he
does, they thought.
Even sof their classmates hurried over after they heard the news. This included people like Leo, Grace,
Elaine, and so on; all of them were seated within the crowd after they rushed over. They, too, hadn't planned on
attending Ed's wedding, but they couldn't stop themselves from going after they heard that the wedding was
hosted in Times Hotel. They had never gotten the chance to enter before this, after all. More importantly, they
wanted to take a look at how impressive Matthew and Julian were and how grand of a wedding they could
manage to host.
Fortunately, Times Hotel was big enough to fit everyone comfortably despite the large number of attendees.
Everyone in the crowd hung their mouths open in surprise after the majestic wedding ended. The wedding
wasn't just an extremely luxurious one; they also had a good number of celebrities who appeared as guest
performers. Sof them were extremely well-known, which only further heightened the overall standards of
this wedding.
Leo, Grace, and Elaine's eyes nearly turned dry from staring at the whole wedding in shock. Although they knew
that Matthew and Julian were no longer the people they used to be, they were still stunned to witness the entire
wedding happening before their eyes. How much power do Matthew and Julian have? How could it be possible
for them to host a wedding of this scale? This isn't something that can be done with just money; how many
connections and people do they need to make this work?

Just as the wedding was about to cto an end, Julian got up on stage. With a loud voice, he announced, "From
now on, Ed will be the managing director of Cunningham Group's Wellness Herbary. Three months from now, |
will quit my position in Cunningham Group's Wellness Herbary, and Ed will be the one that will take over my role
as the CEO!"
Excitement filled the crowd the minute they heard the news. After all, it was just supposed to be a wedding; who
among the guests would've expected to beca witness of Ed's road to success? Cunningham Group's
Wellness Herbary was one of the largest companies in the whole of Eastcliff; it was hard for people to even get a
job there. Who would've thought that Ed would get to take full control over the entire business?!
Even Ed was dumbfounded by this sudden statement. "W-What are you talking about, Julian? Cunningham
Group's Wellness Herbary belongs to you; w-what are you trying to do?"
