Chapter 35

Chapter 35

A bolt of lightning split the dark blue sky. Almost as if the lightning had struck her, the crownresting atop her head fell to the ground It started raining. The crowd had slowly dispersed andSienna looked as if she had her soul sucked out of her body. Staring at Jace who was walking awayfrom her without even a backward glance, Sienna felt despair.

The man who had always shielded her from all danger had finally left her.

Sienna had finally regretted her decision to break up with Jace. She had finally realized the price shehad to pay for all her bad and impulsive decisions throughout the three years that she had spentabroad.

The chaotic wedding ceremony had finally come to an end in the heavy rain

Even though the guests did not get to witness the happy and perfect wedding that they had cometo see, they managed to watch a good show and felt that the entire thing had been worth theirtime.

The Yuriel family was not badly affected as they had desperately wished for the wedding to becanceled. Thus, as long as Jace did not marry Sienna, they were fine with almost any outcome. Theytoo could not be bothered with what other people were going to say or think.

Besides, Sage had returned, and to them, this was something worthy of celebration.

The Zelda family, on the other hand, was feeling restless and dismayed.

After witnessing Sienna’s public humiliation with the numerous “interruptions”, the Zelda family washumiliated.

“This is absurd! Pure absurdity! We pride ourselves on being an honorable and respectable family!Why did you turn out this way? People are going to talk! How do you expect me and your mom toface others?”

Fuming with rage, Sienna's father was pacing back and forth furiously in the study room as hescolded his daughter.

Sitting by the bed, Sienna who was still dressed in her wedding dress was crying her eyes out. Alarge part of her gown was stained with mud- just like how Jace's impression of her had beentainted.

“There, there, cut it out now. This is not Sienna’s fault.” Sienna’s mother tried to calm her husband.Sienna's father scoffed and said, “It's all because of you pampering her! I shouldn't have listened toyou and invested so much into this daughter of yours! All this money and we didn’t even manage tomarry her off into a wealthy family! What a waste of all my money!”

Sienna’'s mother was enraged by his criticisms. “So, you're putting the blame on me? Did I force youto do all those things? This is all because of that dearest sister of yours! She was the one who wasalways going on about marrying into a wealthy family. Luna is clearly a bad influence on Sienna!”“Enough!” Sienna yelled and covered her ears. “I'm already feeling bad enough. Could you bothplease just stop arguing?”

Sienna's father was about to say something when he received a call from Luna Zelda.

“It's your aunt.”

After a simple exchange with his sister, Sienna’s father passed the phone to Sienna. Still weeping,Sienna greeted her aunt. On the other end of the phone was a lazy but stem voice, “Cut thesobbing. Just a small setback and you're defeated already? Are you already thinking of giving up?”“What else am I supposed to do?” Sienna said in despair. “He blames me for lying to him, and hethinks I'm dirty and tainted now. H e will not take me back.”

Luna simply scoffed and replied, “All these don’t matter. As long as you're able to hold his heart inyour hands, you don't have to worry about him walking away from you.” .

"Aunt, what should I do now?" Sienna was completely lost. She used to have Jace in the palm of herhands, but now, he was slowly getting away from her. It felt like she was losing him for good.“Calm down now. Jace must still be angry. You can explain yourself once he’s calmed down. And asfor that ex-wife of his, Sage Luz, we have underestimated her. Don't worry dearest, I will make thempay for what happened today.”
