Chapter 231 The Wedding Ceremony

Martina threw away Harrison's hand with all her might. But she didn't dare to hit Susan anymore.

She just said a few words, "Susan, wait and see. After marrying Manuel, you will never be happy!"

Susan didn't have to wait since she had been very unhappy. Therefore, she didn't take her words as a threat. Instead, she turned to look at Harrison, her sweet and aggressive friend.

In the past, Harrison had been submissive to Martina and always humored her. Now, it seemed nobody could bully her.

"Harrison, tell me how you become so strong. I'd like to learn from you." Susan spoke.

"You don't have to."

"Do you think I'm unable to learn it?" Susan asked angrily.

"I'll protect you." Harrison said slowly. Susan was touched again.

"Harrison, if you were a man, I wouldn't even take a look at Manuel or Henry. I'll just marry you."

Harrison chuckled.

At that moment, she saw Susan suddenly become gloomy. Maybe it was because she mentioned Henry just now. And then, she thought of him. "Don't cry." Harrison spoke to Susan, "Your makeup will be ruined"

Susan stared at her. Struggling with this, Susan finally held it back again. Anyway, things had gone to this point. No matter how much she regretted it and how reluctant she was, things had already gone to this point.

At noon, Susan reluctantly went to the wedding venue. At that time, all the guests were already seated in their chairs, waiting for the ceremony. Harrison accompanied Susan to the castle with gauze curtains and then went back to her seat.

To her surprise, Oscar was sitting in the chair beside hers.

Harrison frowned, "Why are you here?"

"Harrison, do you think I'm a disgrace?"

Harrison did not respond.

She decided not to talk to Oscar anymore. Anyway, she focused all her attention on the bride and groom today.

Manuel showed up in a wheelchair. He was wearing a white suit and a black bow tie, with his hair carefully brushed and styled.

He was smiling now. Even though he couldn't stand up, he was still a handsome gentleman. Manuel was indeed a person who was so pure in body and mind, making Harrison have the feeling that the marriage with Susan would stain him.

"He looks better than me?" Oscar suddenly asked.

Harrison returned to the present moment and was speechless.

"Don't stare at other men, not even Manuel." Oscar spoke slowly.

'Could this man not be so aggressive? I didn't forbid him from looking at any other women. How can he... Alright, indeed, I never see him staring at other women, at least not after the wedding." Harrison thought to herself.

But it didn't matter. The point was that their marriage was just a marriage of convenience. There was no reason for them to be bound by it.

Besides, what did he mean by "not even Manuel"?

It sounded like Manuel was the person he trusted the most and he wouldn't even allow her to look at the person he trusted the most, let alone

other men.

Harrison took a deep breath.

What on earth was the relationship between Manuel and Oscar?

She couldn't help but think of this question again and thought that one day she would be driven mad by it.

The symphony orchestra started playing the Wedding March. With the rhythm of the music, Susan held onto Edward's arm and walked slowly on the red carpet towards Manuel who was at the center of the stage.

Pink rose petals were flying in the air, making the venue romantic. Susan hated all the little surprises at the wedding. When it came to the wedding with Manuel, all the surprises would only scare her in the end. Susan walked up to Manuel. Edward handed her hand to Manuel. But Susan threw it away with a reluctant face. Manuel didn't force her and just put his hand down.

Edward could do nothing but pat Manuel on his shoulder and leave. At this moment, there were only three persons on the stage, Manuel, Susan, and the priest, who was standing in front of them two. Everyone was looking at them.

Manuel had been sitting in a wheelchair. At that moment, to everyone's surprise, he picked up his walking stick and stood up. He had been in such a serious car accident. The doctor suggested that he should not even get out of bed, but he actually stood up!

Manuel stood beside Susan, not showing a hint of pain on his face. He was smiling slightly.

He was tall and slender, making a great couple with Susan. At that moment, Susan also turned her head and glanced at Manuel. She saw him stand up, held back an impulse, but just wouldn't say anything. Now, the priest in front of them spoke clearly and affectionately. "The wedding ceremony begins now."

His speech was immediately met with loud applause, which Susan found extremely annoying.

"Lord, we come before thee to join together Manuel and Susan in holy matrimony..." The priest began with an affectionate remark, "Into this holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined. If anyone can show just cause why they may not be lawfully joined together, let them speak now or forever remain silent."

It was completely silent in the venue.

Susan thought even if Henry came so late and asked her to leave, she would follow him without hesitation.

"Miss Phillips," the priest faced Susan, 'do you take Manuel to be your lawful wedded husband, to have and behold from this day on, for better or for worse, in sickness and in health... as long as you both shall live?"

Susan did not answer. Manuel pursed his lips.

The priest was a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but ask again.

"If I say I don't, can I not get married?" Susan asked the priest.

Everyone present began to whisper because of what she said.

"I do." Susan suddenly replied with certainty.

Even the priest broke out in a cold sweat. It was the first time for him to meet such a playful bride.

"Then, Mr Johnson, do you take Susan to be your lawful wedded wife, to have and behold from this day on, for better or for worse, in sickness and in health... as long as you both shall live?"

"I do." Manuel answered.

*Bride and groom, please exchange rings." The priest announced.

Manuel leaned on the wheelchair and slowly turned to Susan. At the same time, Susan also looked at Manuel. It was the first time she took at close look at him at the wedding today. She found that the injuries on his face left in the car accident had all disappeared. It seemed that he had. deliberately done something to conceal it..

And Manuel looked....

Susan's eyes wandered slightly. However handsome this man was, he was a bad person.

The working staff brought up a pair of wedding rings. Manuel took out one of the rings, "Susan."

He called her. His voice was beautiful.

When he called her with this voice, her name seemed to have become a word of love.
