Chapter 117
“No need for that. The wedding will be held as usual.” After saying that, Pierre immediately whirled around to leave. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Meredith took a step forward. “Pierre, do you not want to get married? I don’t want to force you, so if you truly don’t want to do so—”
Stopping short, Pierre tilted his head a fraction. “I said, the wedding will be held as usual.” When he’d said that, he strode away from her room.
Meredith’s knees went weak, and she slumped down onto the chair beside her, panting heavily. Undeniably, his eyes were truly oppressive. I felt as though I couldn’t breathe. If I hadn’t been prepared beforehand, I would’ve truly given the game away! I can’t allow him to know that I’d known about the wedding in advance, or else there’d be another problem between us.
Nonetheless, she was still imbued with joy. He said that the wedding will be held as usual! I trust it’s not just because of the Fowler Family’s reputation. Rather, it naturally encapsulates his feelings for me as well! The corners of her mouth curved into a sweet smile as she thought, I’m going to be his wife. My dream is really going to come true very soon!
On the day of the wedding, all cruise ships belonging to the Fowler Family’s docked to ferry the invited guests to Sterne Island. Selena initially didn’t want to attend Pierre’s wedding, but this wasn’t just a personal invitation. Rather, it was also an invitation for JNS Corporation, and they’d even started a collaboration with Fowler Corporation, so she had to go no matter what. Hence, she entrusted Juniper to Linda and boarded the cruise ship to Sterne Island.
As Sterne Island was a three-hour trip from shore, the guests were going there a day in advance and staying the night there. Selena stood on the deck and gazed at Sterne Island from afar. The afterglow of the setting sun added a brush of flaming red to the alluring island, rendering it a passionate and vivid maiden who was awaiting their arrival. She kept a very low profile throughout
the entire ride, checking into her room according to the arrangements made after disembarking from the ship.
There was a welcome party that night. Standing before the window, Selena admired the starry skies of Sterne Island. It’s really beautiful. No wonder they’re having the wedding here. The starry sky here is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. All of a sudden, a round of applause rang out, which made Selena turn around and look at the entrance.
Pierre was wearing a black tuxedo. Unlike his usual dull and aloof style in the past, the black this time was embellished with stripes that even glimmered under the lights; he was the groom after all. Against the backdrop of the lights, his innate majesty radiated infinitely, his countenance striking and posture straight. There’s probably no one else like him in this world. Beside him, Meredith was in a white evening gown, looking very much like a proud swan. With a hint of shyness particular to a bride on her face, she delicately held onto his arm. His shirt was white, the exact same shade as her evening gown. Ah, what a perfect couple!
Nonetheless, Selena merely felt her eyes stinging.
Naturally, the limelight turned upon them as soon as they made an appearance. Everyone gathered around them though some found it too crowded there, so those people chose to look on from the side.
“Pierre Fowler is truly handsome. I didn’t know about it previously, but I’ve finally witnessed it now. They’re truly a match made in heaven.”
“Indeed. I don’t know who else in this world is worthy of him besides this goddess. While the Yard Family is somewhat beneath him, Miss Yard is an award-winning best actress and the perfect goddess as acknowledged by the public. They’re truly an ideal match.”
“I heard that his biological mother was also an award-winning best actress and was once involved in the film industry. It’s truly a pity that she passed away early. I bet he took a fancy to Miss Yard because of her similarity to his mother.”
