The wedding was timed by a fortune teller, who said that 1.30 pm was the best time.
So the wedding took place at that time.
Chloe wore a pure white wedding dress. It was simple yet graceful, it exposed her shoulders and the bright diamond necklace in front of her chest was dazzling. Her long diamond earrings swayed as she waltzed in, and her skin looked milky white with the accessories. The elegantly shaped tube top held her thin waist in, her jet-black hair and the dress white as snow complemented each other well. Noah was wearing an army uniform. He was young and looked like an honest young man in the uniform. He looked shy and pure but at the same time a mature gentleman. He was like the sun, his eyes were bright and dazzling.
He looked very handsome in the army uniform, he looked cool even when he walked.
Noah and Chloe walked hand in hand. Noah’s comrades-in-arms formed a line and stood on the sides, they used their hands to form an arched door and opened them slowly. They walked in slowly. Loredana was sitting in the last row. She looked up, saw the scene and smiled.
The wedding of people from the army always felt serious. She reached out her hand and grabbed Cormac’s, “Our children, I hope one of them would become a soldier.” Cormac answered that he would like to respect the children’s choice. If they wanted to, then he wouldn’t stop them. But if they didn’t want to, he wouldn’t force them.
“He looked different when compared to back then, he looked manlier now.” He used to be an idol, he was handsome but more femininely handsome. Now he looked manlier. Loredana commented on Noah.
The host introduced the couple’s past to the guest. They knew each other since they were kids, their family got along with each other and hence they were very close growing up. Their parents were very happy about their marriage.
People would only realize after a long time that fame, fortune and grievance were just troubles that people would bring to themselves. When they learnt to let go, they would know that living peacefully and healthily were what true happiness was.
Nowadays, people only wanted power, fame and fortune.
A normal person would want to have money, cars and estate.
But they wouldn’t calm down and think about what they didn’t have. They weren’t sick, there wasn’t a calamity. Wasn’t that great as well?
A person had to experience things, only after that, they would understand how important peace and health were.
Chloe and Noah were best friends and now they got married. Things went sour for them at one point, but they put it behind them.
After the host finished their speech, the bride and the groom would have to take their oath. Some people would skip this part.
The host said loud and clear, “The groom would now take his oath.”
They gave Noah the microphone. He held the microphone and thanked his parents first, “Dear parents, thank you for bringing me to the world, thank you for bringing me up. I was a bad child and did a lot of wrongs when I was young. I am very thankful that they tolerate and forgive me.”
Marina pursed her lips and her eyes turned red.
Jeffery’s eyes were watery too, but he yelled softly at his wife, “Why are you crying? It’s a happy occasion, don’t cry.”
Marina answered, “I’m crying tears of happiness.”
The father and son used to treat each other as enemies. Now, the son was more filial and the dad was more amiable. This was Marina’s greatest wish. She felt relief that this day had come. “Don’t cry even if their tears of happiness. There are so many people around right now.”
“So what? It’s not embarrassing,” said Marina as she stared at her son who was standing on the stage. She was crying because she felt touched, who would talk bad about her because of this?
Then Noah looked at Loredana.
“Apart from my parents, I would also like to thank another person.” After Loredana came, only then he realized that Loredana didn’t lie to him, she was really sick.
“She was sick yet she still attended my wedding. I am very happy.”
Loredana’ eyes turned red. She thought about the day she got married, the time when Noah appeared at the wedding ceremony. She tried her best to smile.
“Thank you for coming to witness an important chapter of my life.”
Noah bowed to her.
Then he grabbed Chloe’s hand, “We grew up together and were close as a family, like siblings. It’s fate that we end up marrying each other. We care for each other a lot and I am thankful that my father-in-law and mother-in-law trust me and hand her to me.”
Noah bowed to Eddie and his wife.
Eddie nodded repeatedly, he was content with his son-in-law.
Mrs. Chambers cried. It seemed like women cried more easily, they cried when they felt touched.
Men would feel touched inside but would try to hold their tears back.
Noah finished his oath, he handed the microphone to Chloe.
Chloe changed a lot. She was spoiled growing up, she was arrogant and self-willed. Now she was more mature and stable, she wasn’t as impetuous as she used to be.
She stood on the stage and was calm. She held the microphone up and said slowly, “Everyone had to go through something first, only then they would grow up. I was a late bloomer. I did a lot of bad things and hurt a lot of people. I want to use this opportunity to apologize to the people I hurt before. Please forgive my naivety from back then when I was young. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart that you attend Noah’s and my wedding.”
Chloe looked at Loredana and Cormac, she then bowed slightly.
She wanted to break the family up back then and hurt Loredana.
She felt sorry.
“When God closed one of your doors, He would open another,” she said as she turned to look at Noah, “Thank you for tolerating me. Thank you for being by my side when I was down and lost. Thank you for accepting me even after finding out about all of my flaws. Thank you for marrying me.
She stared at Noah deeply and confessed emotionally, “You were standing at the other door that God opened for me.”
The host then continued saying, “The bride and groom loved each other deeply. Even I almost started crying listening to their heartfelt confession. Let’s wish the couple all the best and that they would be together forever.”
The audience clapped merrily.
The ceremony ended, Noah and Chloe walked down the podium. The guest started to move around freely. There were food, cakes and drinks put on the side for people to consume.
Noah, Chloe and Noah’s parents walked towards Loredana.
Marine greeted Loredana happily, “I am happy that you guys came.”
Loredana smiled, “It’s our pleasure.”
“Would you like to sit inside? Is it too hot outside?” asked Jeffery.
Loredana wanted to reject his offer because Cormac mentioned that they would go back after the ceremony as she shouldn’t stay out for too long. But the family surrounded her and were being very friendly, so she nodded.
Cormac helped Loredana walk, she put her hand around his arms. They walked slowly into the house.
It was pretty bad between them back then. They forgave each other but they still needed time for transition, they couldn’t act too familiar around each other.
They talked unfamiliarly.
Chloe poured Loredana a glass of water. Loredana was outside for a bit and felt a bit thirsty.
Loredana took the glass and said, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome,” Chloe smiled.
Loredana took two sips and asked Cormac, “Are you thirsty?”
