After the song was over, Adrien thanked the guests then started reciting his very lengthy marriage
vows.
“I, Adrien Ryker, will only love Lizbeth Murphy for as long as I die. No matter what happens, I will never
leave her side.”
Lizbeth sheepishly lowered her head, but her expression was full of bliss.
The guests gave a sounding applause as they congratulated the lucky couple.
They were all happy that the once promiscuous playboy had now found his soulmate.
Adrien held onto Lizbeth’s hand and said, “To ensure this happiness lives on, Liz will toss the bouquet
of flowers in her hand to the crowd. We hope that the person who catches it will be able to find
happiness the way we have!”
“Wow!” The crowd clapped excitedly.
“Throw it here. I’m ready!”
“I’ll be the one to catch it!”
Even Evelyn and Adam were restlessly waiting, eager to catch Lizbeth’s bouquet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs the music reached a crescendo, Lizbeth turned around and tossed her bouquet backwards.
The hall was in an uproar as all the guests watched with widened eyes and reached out their arms in
hopes of catching the bouquet.
The flowers spun several times in the air, before ultimately landing with a soft poof.
The bouquet had dropped right on Abel’s lap.
Adrien was the first to start clapping. He exclaimed, “Wow! Abel got the bouquet!”
“That’s wonderful! Congratulations, Mr. Abel!” Lizbeth shared his enthusiasm as well.
Abel was also holding onto the bouquet with excitement.
He never imagined he could be this lucky.
Rosaline chuckled, “My son, you’re quite the lucky man!”
Emmeline also got to her feet, clapping wildly as she cheered, “You did great, Abel!”
Abel raised the bouquet towards her and said, “WE did great! Happiness comes when you and I are
together!”
Emmeline’s cheeks were flushed red at his declaration, her expression full of bliss.
In contrast, Adam and Evelyn had gloom written all over.
Adam cursed to himself, Damn you, Abel. Why are you always the lucky one? Even for a simple
bouquet toss, I can’t compare to you! Damn it all!
Evelyn stared daggers at Emmeline as well, her eyes filled with an envious fury.
Why does she get to be the one to be with a good man like Abel?!
Adrien asked, “So Abel, tell us. When are you and Emma planning to get married? Share some of your
happiness with the crowd as well!”
Abel replied, “We’ve already set the date one and a half months ago, but we just haven’t announced it
yet.”
Rosaline smiled, “Abel is right. Around a month ago, I helped my son and Emma look for the perfect
date and finalized their wedding plans. It’ll happen very soon now!”
Someone from the crowd prompted, “When are you getting married, Mr. Abel? Tell us sooner so we
can prepare our gifts!”
“Yes, that’s right. We will have to put extra care in our gifts for Mr. Ryker’s wedding!”
Abel walked over to where Emmeline was sitting and handed her the bouquet.
He bent over and lifted her up, spinning around twice before declaring, “I officially announce that me
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand Emmeline’s wedding will be held next month on the 9th!”
“Wow! On the 9th? That’s wonderful!” Adrien was the first one to clap yet again.
Lizbeth was also joyously celebrating, “Congratulations Mr. Abel! Congratulations Emmeline! Don’t
forget to invite us for the reception!”
“Of course we will!” Emmeline replied as she waved her bouquet at Lizbeth.
The crowd was also cheering.
“Mr. Abel is getting married next month. Isn’t that just around the corner?”
“Oh I’ll have to think really hard on what gift to prepare for Mr. Abel.”
“Mr. Abel is the head of the Ryker family. We have to make sure our gifts are fitting!”
“…”
The reporters who were invited to the party all turned their cameras from Adrien and Lizbeth over to
Abel and Emmeline.
With the incessant clicking of the shutter, the picture of the two lovebirds would be captured on film and
spread across all major media channels.
Evelyn was full of despair as she fell lifelessly onto her seat, realizing in the end, that her love had
always been one-sided.
Abel was now soon to be married, but not once did he even look at her!
Adam took advantage of this situation and asked, “Ms. Evelyn, do you now have an answer for my
question?”
