Chapter 546: I Do
“What?” Kylie was shocked.
Ethan explained. “Stephen did have conducted an abortion to Dinah, but the baby still survived because of uterus retro-position, although she has lost much blood.”
“Didn’t she say Stephen has removed her uterus?” Kylie was confused. Why did Dinah lie to her?
Ethan glanced around the guests at the ceremony. “Probably, she was worried that Stephen would do that again, so she said that on purpose.”
Kylie felt sad, as well as lucky.
She felt lucky for Stephen because he had his own kid now, but she also felt sad that Dinah didn’t trust her.
Nate and William were the best men today. Both of them were very handsome, and they stunned many people when they showed up in formal suits.
Nate lightly knocked his arm against Fannie with evident pride on his face. “When will you marry me?”
Fannie sneered, “When you finish collecting 10, 001 diamonds.”
Nate smiled. “Why do you have to wear diamonds? I can prepare 10, 001 coins for you, and you’ll be the coolest bride ever.”
“Why don’t you marry me, Fannie? I can prepare diamonds for you,” William said and interrupted them.
“Disappear now!” Nate hit him with a fist.
Accompanied by Wedding March, Ethan entered the splendid hall holding Kylie’s hand.
Everyone stood up applauding to give the loving couple their best wishes.
Ethan kept pace with Kylie. However, when they walked by a particular row of seats, he stopped for a second.
Kylie gave him a glance but didn’t know why.
Before she could ask him, Ethan continued to walk ahead at the same pace.
Vincent, who stood among the crowd, received the message from Ethan’s eyes.
They should stay alert.
The drug trafficking organization was smashed, and all the drugs were confiscated by the FBI. What they hard-earned over years of hard-working now was totally ruined. The rest members of the organization would blame Kylie for everything.
If it hadn’t been for Kylie, Stephen wouldn’t have advanced the deal, which caused the following series of mistakes and tragedies.
Stephen’s people simply wanted to revenge him on Kylie as the news about Stephen’s fake death spread like wildfire.
In that case, today’s wedding was the best chance for them to approach her.
Ethan had prepared everything well too.
Among the crowd who came to the wedding, there were many plainclothes policemen. Tory was also invited by Ethan to protect Kylie in disguise.
When Ethan glanced around the crowd, he found many potentially dangerous people. Although they stared at the bride as everyone did, the strong hatred in their eyes was too obvious to be ignored.
The two walked to the center of the stage. As soon as the priest opened the book, Kylie said, “I’m willing to marry him, and he’s also willing to marry me. Can we be quick?”
The priest showed embarrassment on his face, but Ethan said thoughtfully, “Follow the procedure.”
Kylie was impatient. She couldn’t wait for a second longer to see her babies. Even though she knew Barbara and Adolph were in the lounge to take care of the babies, she still had a hunch.
“Ethan, do you take Kylie for your lawful wedded wife in this holy estate of matrimony? Will you love, honor, comfort, and cherish her from this day forward, forsaking all others, keeping only unto her for as long as you both shall live?”
The hall fell into silence, and the priest asked Ethan at first.
“I do,” Ethan said with sincerity. The priest then turned to face Kylie. “Kylie, do you take…”
“Yeah, I do!” Kylie interrupted him.
Because of her quick answer, everyone laughed.
The priest smiled. “Well, may the Lord bless you both all the days of your lives and fill you with his joy. Now, you may kiss your bride.”
Ethan took out a pink ring with a diamond as big as a dove egg from his pocket, then put it on Kylie’s finger before he kissed her.
When he devoted himself to the kiss, he heard Kylie say. “Be quick. I need to see our babies.”
In fact, the kiss was about to end, but Ethan used greater force and didn’t let Kylie go until she was almost out of breath.
Everyone in the hall cheered for them again.
Once the wedding was over, the guests stayed for the party.
Barbara, Adolph, old Mr. Parker, and a couple of Laurence were also in the hall sharing the happiness with the newlyweds.
Kylie got nervous and asked Ethan in a low voice, “Mom is here too. Who is taking care of the babies?”
“Relax, the housekeeper will handle it well.” Ethan handed Kylie a glass of champagne.
Kylie clinked glasses with them. “We’re a family from now on.”
Adolph beamed, while old Mr. Parker felt like crying with excitement.
Afterward, Ethan poured champagne for Laurence and Alice, but he didn’t bother to smile at them.
Alice held her breath in anxiety, and Laurence clinked glasses with Ethan. “Congratulations!”
The next part of today’s ceremony was that the bride should throw her bridal bouquet to a group of single girls under the stage.
Many unmarried women also gathered there trying to share some luck.
“Why don’t you join them?” Nate said to Fannie.
Fannie glanced at him. “What? Aren’t you going to marry me for sure?”
“Right, we can get married next month!” Nate beamed, but Fannie rolled her eyes at him. “You haven’t proposed yet. I can’t entirely agree unless you propose to me.”
Hearing that, the broad smile froze on Nate’s face in an instant.
After a great cheer went up from the crowd, the bridal bouquet fell.
When everyone was searching for the person who caught it, they found it was missing.
“Where is it?” Nobody knew.
Dinah, instead, secretly hid the bridal bouquet under a table at the edge of the crowd.
She lost hope for a romantic wedding with her beloved man, and all she wanted now was to deliver their baby safely.
Kylie finally could leave and change her clothing after the long ceremony. She walked fast and ached to see her babies as soon as possible.
Nevertheless, the second she pushed the door of the lounge open, she was struck dumb.
The housekeeper lay straight on the floor with an empty crib by his side.
“Ethan!” Kylie exclaimed.
Ethan, who followed her behind, strode over at once. “Block three kilometers around this hotel. Forbid anyone to come in or leave here, especially those who are with children,” he said to a walkie-talkie.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
