Chapter 58: The Wedding (16) Telling the Whole World
“Ms. Morris, the moment we bow, we belong to each other for the rest of our lives.” Kingsley sounded a bit haughty.
Gianna stared at him.
She looked at his serious face.
Time was ticking.
Suddenly, Kingsley bowed to her.
It was him showing her his respect.
Gianna’s heart was beating fast.
Caesar had never treated her with such respect before.
He said he loved her, but he never respected her.
She never liked the clothes he got her, she never liked the food he got her. But he would always coat his words with sugar and “force” her to accept it.
She thought that it was love.
But in the end, it was just to shackle her.
So that she would listen to whatever he said.
She wore what he told her to wear. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
She would never go right if he told her to go left.
Gianna looked at the person bowing 90 degrees to her.
She always thought that a man would never bow to a woman. Bowing meant that they were throwing away their pride.
But at this moment, she thought that a real man would... be willing to bow to the person they loved.
She bowed too.
Her head slightly bumped into Kingsley’s.
The crowd started clapping excitedly.
They were clapping for this new couple, this couple that was made for each other.
Outside, on every screen on the street, everyone could see Kingsley’s and Gianna’s wedding.
The Livestream was also happening online. Every scene was shown.
The number of people watching the wedding exceeded the total number of people watching the most popular variety show in Country B.
That meant.
That Caesar was watching it as well.
During noon, Gianna was taken away by Kingsley. Caesar’s parents argued with Gianna’s parents on the spot. But because they were the ones with bad faith, the argument didn’t lead to anything and they could only leave in exasperation.
They left like a joke they were.
As they got back home, they couldn’t stand it anymore. They were pissed. They wouldn’t stand being embarrassed like that in public. After so many years of conning Gianna, they lost her when they almost approached their goal.
Caesar was so mad he wanted to murder someone.
Until now he still believed that Gianna would regret it.
Gianna would regret marrying Kingsley, she would.
And he would give her the taste of her own medicine if she ever came back looking for him.
But now, he would simply open a website and there would be videos of their wedding.
If the camera didn’t focus on Gianna, he wouldn’t know that it was her wedding. He thought it was a traditional costumed drama, he thought it was about a king taking in his concubine.
He felt like Kingsley was trying to tell the whole world about it!
Caesar gritted his teeth.
The wedding at noon already made him lost his standing among the elites. And now Kingsley’s and Gianna’s wedding was broadcasted to the whole nation. Everyone now knew that he was thrown away by Gianna; everyone could see how miserable he was!
Caesar tried to suppress his anger. He stared at Gianna through the screen, his eyes were bloodshot. She was in a red dress; it was a phoenix coronet and robe of rank. The wedding he prepared was nothing in comparison. If only he knew, if only he knew that this would happen… He would’ve put more effort into the wedding, he would hold a big wedding, so big that even Kingsley couldn’t compete…
At that moment the camera showed the whole wedding hall in one shot.
Caesar was shocked, he was breaking down.
It was so extravagant… He immediately knew that it was impossible for him to compete with Kingsley.
No!
Caesar would never admit that he was not as good as the other person.
He would never admit that Kingsley was better than him.
Kingsley was just rich.
And he was only rich because he was the son of the Walker family, the head of the 4 most influential families.
Caesar swore that one day he would become the most influential person in Country B and Kingsley would be under his feet.
He would step on Kingsley harshly so that he could never recover!
In the banquet, Kingsley and Gianna stood up.
They looked at each other deeply again.
Gianna felt like she seeing things!
Kingsley was smiling at her as if he was the happiest person on earth.
He was smiling so happily, looking very jubilant.
Was the bright light giving her this illusion?
In her memory, Kingsley was always cool and reserve. She had never seen him so… elated.
Gianna was spacing out.
She was dazed and hence she didn’t hear when the host person yelled in a baritone, “The new couple, into the bridal chamber!”
“Ms. Morris,” Kingsley called out to her. He sounded thrilled.
Gianna snapped out of it.
Kingsley repeated, “Let’s go to the bridal chamber.”
Gianna was speechless. Why would she do that?
Kingsley held out his hand and grabbed hers.
She thought that after what she went through, she would reject his touches.
But for some reason, she didn’t feel disgusted when he held her hand tightly the whole time.
The camera focused on their hands that were holding each other tightly. It gave their hands a close-up.
The love in the air made the crowd jealous.
Kingsley held her hand and walked towards the stage.
Everyone started clapping.
Everyone was really surprised by how glorious this wedding was. They could only clap their hearts out to show their appreciation.
Gianna followed Kingsley and they left the hall.
Gianna thought that Kingsley would bring her to the dressing room to change out of the bridal dress, change into another dress and then go back out to the hall to talk to the guests. But to her surprise, Kingsley walked her out of the hotel.
A long Rolls Royce parked at the entrance.
Kingsley’s butler, Marvin, was in a black suit and was wearing white gloves. He was standing there tactfully.
He quickly opened the door after seeing them, he said respectfully, “Master, madam.”
Madam…
Gianna couldn’t believe her ears.
She really got married… with Kingsley.
They really got married.
She calmed herself down. She got into the car with Kingsley’s help.
Her dress was too posh, it was extremely long. She tried her best to pull the whole dress into her car. She then saw Marvin walking up to her, intending to help her. She wanted to say no, but Kingsley who was next to her suddenly squatted and was attentively helping her putting her golden threaded train away neatly…
Reckoning, Gianna was not the only one who was shocked.
Marvin was also shocked.
He looked like he tried to take a deep breath. He closed his eyes briefly; he couldn’t believe what he just saw.
He couldn’t believe that his master, who never showed love towards another woman, would treat Gianna so wholeheartedly.
