Chapter 43: The Wedding (1) Is Our Agreement Still in Place?
A month had passed.
Caesar and Gianna’s wedding, which had been causing an uproar in Kouby City and Country B for a long time, and had been hyped up by the media, was going to take place tomorrow.
Gianna was lying in bed, having trouble sleeping. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
In her last life, she had insomnia too.
But the reason was different.
She was so excited about her marriage and love that she couldn’t fall asleep in her previous life.
In this life, she was just thinking about how she could be fail-safe in revealing Caesar’s truth in public tomorrow.
Late at night.
The phone suddenly rang.
Gianna was startled.
She looked at the caller, and her heart seemed to have skipped a beat.
She suddenly remembered that she also received a call from Kingsley in her previous life at this moment. And at that time, he asked her if she would follow him when he came for a bride kidnapping at the wedding tomorrow.
She tried to calm herself and picked up the call, “Kingsley.”
“Is our agreement still in place?” He asked soberly, not seeming to be emotional.
Finally, it was no longer the exact words from the last life.
The current Kingsley didn’t seem to be drunk at all.
She said, “Did I ever mention breaking our promise?”
“There are many news about you and Mr. Kennedy this month, taking wedding photos, choosing a wedding dress, sticking together all the time. It makes me mistakenly think that you had lost your mind, having a joke with me.”
Gianna’s face changed slightly.
You were the one who had lost your mind!
Saying about her and Caesar sticking together all the time.
It was true.
In the month of preparing for the wedding, she had indeed been busy with the wedding preparations.
And the reason she did this was just to keep Caesar from being doubtful. Or more so, to make Caesar act and disguise himself more perfectly. After all, the higher he climbed, the harder he fell!
However, what about Kingsley?
Since she slept over at his house for one night a month ago, he never had any contact with her again. There were even times when Gianna couldn’t help but want to call Kingsley and ask if he would come on her wedding day. In fact, with the current relationship between her and Kingsley, she wasn’t sure he would show up.
But, she gave up the impulse to do so several times.
She didn’t want to force Kingsley to work with her in the name of marriage. As long as he didn’t want to do so, she definitely wouldn’t force him.
She also thought very clearly that even if Kingsley didn’t show up tomorrow when she exposed Caesar’s video, she could still make Caesar collapse.
Just that, Caesar would suffer a heavy blow if she married someone else on the wedding day.
At this moment.
She had finally waited for Kingsley’s phone call.
She said firmly to Kingsley, “As long as you come tomorrow.”
“Gianna.” Kingsley called her name.
For the first time, he called her name so solemnly.
He said, “Don’t fool me.”
Gianna hadn’t answered yet.
“You can’t afford that!” Kingsley said word by word, not giving Gianna a chance to answer at all.
The phone was also hung up at this moment.
Gianna zoned out, staring at the phone.
In the end.
Kingsley didn’t give her an exact answer either.
Would it be like her previous life… he wasn’t going to show up.
…
On the next day…
It was dawn.
The wedding company’s staff had already appeared in Gianna’s room with all the equipment.
Gianna got up in a daze.
She might have just slept for about an hour.
There were so many things to think about that there was no way to fall asleep.
There were also nightmares after falling asleep.
There were too many shadows from her previous life. Even if she tried to adjust herself, it was still hard to let go of it.
She washed up and sat at her dressing table.
She couldn’t remember exactly what mood she had been in her previous life when she was grooming herself.
At least at the moment, she was emotionless and even a little disillusioned.
It was the thought of meeting Caesar in a few moments that made her go bananas.
As a bridesmaid, Maureen then rushed in half an hour later after Gianna woke up.
It was rare for her to get up so early, although she was still late.
Gianna had urged Maureen many times in her last life, afraid that she would delay her best day. However, she thought it was okay if she didn’t come this time as it didn’t matter anyway.
On the contrary, Maureen was a bit overwhelmed, “I just turned off the alarm, thinking of sleeping for a while longer, but ended up having slept for half an hour longer. I didn’t even have time to go to the toilet before dashing here. It’s not too late, right?”
“It’s okay, Ms. Torres. The bridesmaid makeup is not complicated, and it doesn’t matter to be late a little. How about you go to the bathroom to have a wash first?” The staff reminded gently.
“Damn! How did you know that I haven’t wash my face? Are there eye boogers on it?” Maureen said bluntly.
Others wouldn’t have thought Maureen was actually from a super-wealthy family with tens of billions of assets.
The staff was instantly amused by Maureen.
Got to say, Maureen was so friendly that nobody would think of her putting on airs.
That was why Maureen had a relatively good reputation in many service industries.
“No. It’s that you have drool stains at the corner of your mouth.” The staff hurriedly explained.
“Oh, is that so?” Maureen touched the corner of her mouth, “Last night, I dreamt of gnawing pork knuckles. I went on a diet last night just to be a bridesmaid today!”
Saying that, she ran over to Gianna and played nice, “I’ve sacrificed for you so much. Do you love me?”
“I love you so much. Hurry up and go wash up.” Gianna urged.
“You’re just blowing me off.” Maureen pouted.
It wasn’t that she wanted to blow her off.
Instead… it wasn’t worth any sacrifice for her wedding with Caesar!
After going to the bathroom to wash up, Maureen sat down to have her makeup done by the staff.
There were the joking sounds of Maureen and the staff in the room from time to time.
Gianna was the only one.
She couldn’t smile at all.
It was a good thing that Maureen was carefree and didn’t notice Gianna’s emotions. But even if she did, she would only think that Gianna was too nervous.
It took more than three hours.
Gianna and Maureen finished dressing up.
Maureen looked at Gianna’s appearance and asked, gritting her teeth, “Gianna, how can such an ordinary wedding dress look so good on you?”
Gianna looked at herself inside the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
Indeed.
The wedding dress was ordinary.
It wasn’t that she didn’t look forward to this wedding, so she randomly chose it. It was just because Caesar wasn’t that attentive.
When she went to choose her wedding dress, she was already dazzled when selecting from various dresses. Caesar didn’t have much patience and just casually picked a few pieces for her, and they were exactly the same as those in her last life.
Gianna was trying to satisfy Caesar in the previous life, so she agreed with it even if she didn’t like it.
In this life, Gianna just wore anything because she didn’t care about it at all.
Yet inside the mirror at this moment.
She saw a gorgeous bride.
She was indeed good looking, without any flaws on her face. With just a little dressing up, and she would be stunningly beautiful.
So, what the media praised her at her wedding in the last life had nothing to do with Caesar’s so-called careful preparation!
