Chapter 423: Glorious Moment
Chapter 423: Glorious Moment
“No! Please stop! Release him!” Alice was shouting begging.
Trishia quickly went out to check on her mom. She was nervous about what was happening outside.
Aside from that, she was concerned that someone could capture anything outside her room that could
ruin her image.
It wasn’t good for her reputation especially since she would be promoted to Mrs. Sky.
“What’s happening here?” She rushed outside and saw her mom was being held by two men with of
course the presence of her real husband, Sen. Meyer.
“Your dad! Your dad! Help your dad, Trishia. They captured your dad!” Alice cried out while struggling to
reply to her.
“You sh*t up!” The Senator butted in indignantly while he raised his hand to hit Alice.
He seemed to sense that Alice would bring her lover to her daughter’s wedding.
The Sen. had prepared for it.
It was a great opportunity for the Senator as he was eyeing this man.
This man would help him manipulate either Trishia or Arabella Jones.
“Pak!!!” Shortly, a loud slap sound echoed in the area.
Sen. Meyer’s strong hand landed on Alice’s cheek which made her stop and her lips instantly bleed
due to the hard slap.
Trishia was shocked.
In front of her, she saw her mom slapped by the old Senator.
Her eyes widened and her heart was racing so fast.
It wasn’t because of nervousness or excitement but because of extreme anger.
She clenched her fists hard as without any hesitation, she was going to attack the Senator with her
bare hands.
Seeing her mom hit by him, she couldn’t think properly.
She just wanted to kill the person who hit her.
“Oh! Stop right there, Trishia if you want to still continue your wedding!” The Senator seemed to have
all things ready.
After his words, he opened Trishia’s room wider and pointed at the corner.
“Look for yourself!” The Senator sounded boastful.
Trishia halted but her anger was still boiling tremendously.
She wanted to release it and avenged her mother but the wicked Senator had something prepared for
her.
Trishia quickly looked in that direction and was quickly taken aback.
A small camera was standing beside a flower base on the table.
That just meant, earlier, her conversation with her biological father was recorded.
This made her more flushed.
She was clenching her fists so hard realizing that she was tricked by the Senator.
It seemed it was planned well.
From the dinner last night, he was acting like a good hospitable father-in-law to Bill Sky.
With that, he could get all the favors from Bill. As for her, the Sen. made sure that he could still hold her
aside from her mom.
“You! You are so evil!” Trishia screamed so madly.
Sen. Meyer just grinned at her wickedly. “Oh! That is an understatement, Trishia.” The Senator
exclaimed. “I am the king of all evils,” He added proudly as his expression was so wicked with
dangerous eyes.
Trishia stayed rooted in her spot.
Her mind was in a deep mess.
The Senator had planned it in advance even before she wore her wedding dress.
He was totally getting on her nerves.
If only she could get a gun now and shoot him dead, she would do it right away.
She didn’t care if she had witnessed it as she just wanted to this man be gone forever and would never
disturb her life ever again.
He was like a sharp fishbone in her throat that couldn’t be removed even if she spit it out forcefully
repeatedly.
Sen. Meyer smiled at Trishia wickedly as he saw her lost expression.
“Look! Aren’t you going to thank me? You don’t want your father, right? So that just means that I saved
you Trishia. Now… as my present to you, I will give you a chance to decide.” Sen. Meyer got closer
behind Trishia and sounded like a whisper to her ears.
“Do you want him to die or live?” The Senator added with a serious but playful tone. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Trishia was dumbfounded.
She heard him clearly but she couldn’t respond quickly.
“No! No….Trishia no… Don’t think of killing your dad, you promised me… no!” Alice quickly shouted
noticing Trishia couldn’t decide and was thinking deeply.
“I said, shut up!” Senator Meyer roared indignantly.
He looked at Alice with a warning then looked back to Trishia. “What now, Trishia? What’s your
decision? Come on! It’s my wedding gift to you. Don’t spoil it, darling.” Senator Meyer sounded in a
convincing tone.
Trishia looked at her mother begging her.
Her tears were flowing like a river with no sign of stopping.
If she had to choose for herself, she wanted to make this man vanish forever but she felt she had to
give it to her mother.
Trishia hated it seeing her mom so desperate to save that man.
It seemed to Trishia that her mom could give up her own life for that man.
She felt angry and jealous.
Her mom should be hers alone.
Her mom should only love her and no one else.
Not her father.
Not that man!
“No, Trishia….” Alice muttered softly along with her tears.
Her mom wasn’t afraid of the Senator’s slap just to save the man.
“Mom…” Trishia called Alice. Her eyes were serious.
Alice looked at her with dispirited eyes.
The atmosphere tensed up as their intense emotions circulated in the air.
“If you have to choose, who would live, me? Or that man?” Trishia was asked very eager to know.
She wanted to hear Alice’s answer as she could not accept that her mom seemed so head over heels
for that man.
She couldn’t accept that her mom loved another person when it was supposed to be her only.
“Trishia…” Alice muttered shocked and in disbelief.
She didn’t expect Trishia’s question and what saddened her was that Trishia still didn’t accept her
father.
She still despised him and Alice could see the heaviness of her heart toward her father like there was
no chance for her to acknowledge him in this lifetime.
“Mom… just answer me,” Trishia couldn’t wait to hear her mom’s reply.
She wanted her to choose her without any hesitation but the way she saw it, her mother was hesitant to
answer her.
One could easily tell that she was in a very hard position that she couldn’t answer Trishia.
She couldn’t choose and that made Trishia angry.
She cursed his father repeatedly in her mind that even her mom couldn’t choose her.
The only person that she knew was hers alone was already manipulated by that man.
Without getting any reply from her mom, Trishia stood up indignantly.
Disheartened, she looked at her mother who was also looking at her pleading.
Trishia’s eyes turned furious as she said to the Senator whose expression was very thrilled like he was
watching a good suspense movie, “Kill him,” Trishia had decided that made Alice shocked.
“Trishia! What are you saying? No! He is your father, for god's sake! No! No!” Alice roared hysterically.
“That’s great! You really made a good decision this time! Hahaha!” The Senator remarked proudly.
Trishia looked down at this point, she felt greatly offended by her mom.
Due to her angry and jealous impulse, she decided but then she didn’t want to take it back.
As for her, her mother would understand her later.
She couldn’t stay angry with her.
“Mom, sorry… you don’t need that man. He can’t give anything to you but danger and humiliation.”
Trishia strode closer to her mom trying to pacify her.
Sen. Meyer’s men quickly released Alice who was still in shock.
Her expression was dispirited and very sad. “You don’t need that man, mom. Now that I am going to be
Mrs. Sky, I can give you all that you want, okay? I will buy you a house… a huge mansion, okay?”
Trishia held her mother’s arms to comfort her.
“Don’t touch me!!!” Along with Alice’s screaming was a thunderclap slap sound.
Alice suddenly slapped Trishia.
She looked at her disgustingly. “Trishia… I asked only for this one but you can’t give it. Your dad’s life is
more important than any expensive thing. You should know how to value one’s life because if not, your
life is just a waste. You will not get any satisfaction and end up always forcing yourself on someone.
How could you expect someone to love you if you can’t give genuine love to someone? Huh!? No one
can love you because you don’t know how to love, Trishia! You will never be happy in this life because
you are cruel! Even if I die, I will not forgive you! Good luck with your marriage. I don’t think you still
need me here.” With that, Alice pushed Trishia away and then ran off.
“Mom! Mom!Mom!” Trishia called out but Alice didn’t bother. She never saw her mother’s eyes earlier
be too furious like she cursed her to be her daughter.
Trishia was left dumbfounded.
She felt knocked out by her mother’s words and not only that, the feeling of being abandoned by the
only person who never left her side. It was her to blame but she was fighting with it.
‘Blamed that man!’ She was screaming in her mind blaming her father.
“Don’t worry, dear. I am still here to represent as the bride’s parent, you don’t need a mother in this
wedding.” Sen. Meyer blurted out behind her as he held her low shoulders. “Ha! Ha!Ha!” Then he
laughed triumphantly striding away calmly as if nothing had happened.
Trishia was left alone holding her swollen cheek.
It reminded her of the anger of her mother.
She slapped her strongly as her expression was greatly disappointed toward her.
She heaved a sigh, as she tried to gather her composure.
Because of the presence of that man, her mood was totally ruined.
She tried to inhale and exhale repeatedly to bring back her wedding mood.
She should be smiling triumphantly right now amidst those words of her mother earlier.
‘You will never be happy because you are cruel!’
‘No one will love you because you don’t know how to love!’
Those sentences from her mom kept on bugging her mind making her nervous and scared but she was
strongly fighting it.
“No! You are wrong, mom. Happiness is coming my way! I’m going to be Mrs. Sky in just a few
minutes.” Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Trishia blurted in the air with a firm tone.
Just when someone knocked on her door again, Trishia quickly fixed herself.
“Come in,” She answered.
“Ms. Meyer, we are here to retouch your makeup. The organizer said to stand by as the wedding was
about to start.” The head make-up artist came inside with her team behind.
She nodded to agree.
“What about the groom? Is he here?” Realizing that Bill was no update on his whereabouts she felt like
going crazy.
“Ms. Meyer, as I heard earlier, Mr. Sky isn’t still here.” The woman replied.
The wedding was going to start in 15 minutes but Bill wasn’t there.
Trishia could feel her heart palpitating.
She got her phone and called Bill but he didn’t answer.
“Kelly? Where’s Kelly, the mother’s groom?” Trishia asked already in a panic.
“She’s here. She seemed to be caught with the VIPs.” The artist replied while retouching Trishia’s
brows.
“Good to know,” Trishia uttered satisfied. “What about, Adam Sky?” Trishia asked again.
“Ah… about him, he is not found.” The woman answered.
Trishia couldn’t help panicking.
Her mind was a mess.
Maybe Adam was with Bill and Arabella.
Maybe they flew away leaving her in an awful situation. With Arabella, Bill, and their son, they were a
family.
Maybe Bill chose his family over her.
She felt a tingling sensation crazily running in her body to her head.
Trishia quickly dialed Kelly’s number.
She answered.
“Mom? Where are Adam and Bill?” Trishia asked like she wasn’t still informed about their absence.
“Oh, sorry. I am supposed to see you but my comrades are here and couldn’t just leave them.
Anyway, don’t worry, dear. Adam is with his dad. They are together and they were on their way here.
Okay?” Kelly answered appeasing Trishia’s nervous aura.
“That’s good to know, mom. Then I will see you later.” Trishia sounded so sweet as she dropped the
call.
The clock was ticking indicating that the time was fast approaching.
There was still no update from Bill.
The wedding organizer almost went crazy already with the groom’s absence.
“Ms. Meyer, it’s already 30 minutes late. The reporters were live. Mr. Sky is still not here. What are we
going to do?” The woman organizer strode inside her room in a panic.
“Ahhhh!!!” The cosmetics scattered on the floor when Trishia tripped them indignantly.
She heaved a heavy sigh.
Her anger could kill someone in front of her.
This glorious moment is hers and no one could steal it from her.
Not even, Arabella Jones.
“What are we going to do now, Mrs. Meyer?” The organizer was shocked by Trishia’s harsh action but
she had to do something or they had to do something to avoid humiliation from the crowd.
Trishia looked at the organizer like she was breathing fire.
Her killer eyes made the organizer tremble.
Trishia just looked at her then, “Start the wedding.” Trishia suddenly ordered.
The organizer seemed to drop her jaw in shock.
How could it be?
What happened to a wedding without a groom?
She wanted to reconfirm it to Trishia but with her horrifying look, she didn’t dare instead, she quickly
ran off and follow the order.
The wedding would start without a groom.
Trishia was left inside her room, and after a while, a loud shattering of the mirror sound was heard.
"Where are you, Bill Sky?" Trishia roared angrily in the air.
"Arabella Jones!!!" With bulging eyeballs and veins popping out due to intense anger, Trishia called out
the person's name who she blamed for Bill's disappearance.
