Chapter 315 What an Embarrassment
Gasps rippled through the crowd.
Shocked as they were, no one dared to speak openly in Jonathan’s presence.

But while most eyes flickered toward him and Anneliese with awe or envy, they also strayed- more boldly–to Zacharias and the White family.
Where Jonathan and Anneliese drew restrained admiration, Zacharias and Selina were met with open ridicule–gloating looks, mocking smirks, even a touch of pity.
Even Timothy, usually the best at keeping his composure, couldn’t hide his shock.
Similarly, Perseus and his brothers stood slack–jawed, unable to close their mouths.
As for Zacharias, his handsome face clouded over.
He stared at Jonathan and Anneliese standing together like the perfect pair, his fists clenched so tightly that his veins bulged.
Only sheer willpower kept him from storming over to tear them apart and making a scene.
“That’s impossible! Zacharias, did Anneliese really marry Jonathan?”
From the moment Jonathan appeared, Selina felt trapped in a nightmare–though this was worse than one, absurd to the point of madness.
Her mind went blank, unable to believe it.
When she finally found her voice, she clutched at Zacharias while stumbling over her words.
Zacharias glanced down at her pale face and wide, quaking eyes.
In her expression, he saw his own reflection.
Selina was a laughingstock–but wasn’t he the same?
Tonight, he’d been stripped of dignity. All because of one man’s arrival, he stood as nothing more than a failure.
With a sharp motion, he flung her hand aside and walked away from the crowd.
He hadn’t used much force, but Selina still staggered.

:
With her head bowed, she muttered under her breath, “That’s impossible…”
She looked up abruptly, ready to confront Anneliese and Jonathan.
But this time, Timothy caught her by the arm, his voice low and full of warning.
“Selina! Haven’t you embarrassed us enough already?”
“Dad, I-” Her eyes brimmed with tears.
Just then, someone suddenly pointed at her and shouted, “Look at her dress!”
“God, what is that on her skirt?”
“Did she just do a number two?”
Selina froze before spinning around in a panic.
People around her were already pointing and whispering behind her back.

“What are you talking about? Nonsense! There’s nothing wrong with me!” she screamed, clutching at the back of her gown.
However, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
They were crazy to think she’d humiliate herself like that.
But when Perseus caught sight of her gown, his face turned into stone.
On the back of her red fishtail dress was a dark, sticky smear–looking disturbingly like poop
marks.
Did Selina just…
Flustered, he quickly shrugged off his jacket and tried shielding her with it.
At the back of the crowd, a tiny girl in a pink dress licked her chubby fingers, savoring the messy blend of chocolate and mango cream she’d just gotten from the dessert table.
Then, she ducked behind Anneliese like a mischievous shadow.
The commotion only grew louder.
People covered their noses and stepped back as Selina shrieked in humiliation, now wrapped in her brother’s jacket.

Chapter 315 What an Embarrassment
When Perseus tried to tie the coat around her waist, her face burned scarlet.
In a frenzy, she tore it off and screamed, “Get away from me! Nothing’s wrong!”
She shoved him hard.
He stumbled back two steps, stunned.
He had only wanted to protect her, yet here she was, treating him as if he’d made her humiliation worse.

“Selina, how can you treat me like this? I’m only trying to help!” he demanded, his voice raw.
Her eyes burned red with fury.
“Help? You’re just an idiot! There’s nothing, so don’t make me look even worse!”
She knew nothing had happened, yet Perseus was making things worse.
By trying to cover her, he had only made everyone more convinced she’d soiled herself.
Wasn’t that much more humiliating?
Perseus stood in place, reeling from the shock.
All his life, he had cherished Selina like a princess, protecting her at every turn.
And now, in front of everyone, his beloved sister had degraded him harshly.
He was filled with hurt.
All around him, people’s eyes burned into him—not with sympathy, but with mockery.
He felt like the biggest fool of them all.
