Chapter 268 I Want To Marry You
At this moment, Saatchi Hotel, the biggest five-star hotel in Ardlens, was brightly lit.
The luxurious hall where Jamie's wedding would be held was adorned with an endless sea of red
roses, making it look particularly romantic.
The ceremony table on the stage was decorated with Swarovski crystals.
In the middle was a huge crystal screen, which shone brightly.
Such an incredibly luxurious setup was enviable.
The bride, Jamie, was in the VIP lounge.
She wore a gorgeous wedding gown.
The makeup artist was now touching up her makeup.
She asked the makeup artist, “Are there already guests outside?"
The makeup artist shook her head.
The only people outside were the hotel staff.
Jarrod and Jamie's wedding was a private ceremony, and they reserved the entire hotel only for their
guests.
The makeup artist noticed Jamie's nervousness.
Beads of sweat came out of Jamie's forehead.
The makeup artist grabbed the powder puff and wiped the sweat off Jamie's forehead.
She comforted Jamie, "Miss Powell,it's only half past nine.It's too early for the guests to arrive, so
there's no need to be nervous."
Suddenly, a slap sound echoed in the lounge.
Jamie's palm landed on the makeup artist's face.
The makeup artist covered her numbed cheek.
She was shocked and confused at the same time.
She looked at Jamie aggrievedly and asked, "Miss Powell, what's wrong with you?"
Jamie's expression turned fierce.She snapped angrily, "How dare you say I'm nervous!"
Since this morning, Jamie felt like her heart had been in her throat.
For some reason, she had this strange sense of foreboding.
But she comforted herself.
Today, she was wearing a wedding gown worth three billion dollars, and this extravagant wedding cost
ten billion dollars.
Jarrod had spent this much, so she had nothing to be nervous about.
She only slapped the makeup artist just now because of frustration and embarrassment after being
perceived as nervous.
When Jamie saw that the makeup artist still stood there, she snarled, "Get out!"
She rolled her eyes in exasperation, thinking the makeup artist was such a clueless person.
Now that Jamie was left alone, there was pin-drop silence in the VIP lounge.
She took out her phone and called Jarrod.Actually, Jamie had been nervous and fidgety since this
morning because she couldn't contact Jarrod.
His phone was powered off.
At this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Jarrod walked in.
He looked handsome in his tailored suit.
Jamie lifted the hemline of her wedding dress and trotted to him.
She pouted like a spoiled child.
"Why are you not answering your phone? I've been calling you the entire morning."
"I dropped my phone.It's broken," Jarrod explained casually.
"Oh, okay."
Jamie didn't make a fuss about it anymore.
But this time, she noticed that Jarrod wasn't wearing the dark red suit she had chosen for him.
Instead, he was dressed in a black suit.
Although he was still handsome and charming, the whole black attire looked too somber.
It lacked the joyous atmosphere that a groom should radiate.
She couldn't help asking, "Jarrod, why aren't you wearing the dark red suit I picked for you?"
Jarrod didn't answer her question.
He remained silent with a stern expression on his face.
Looking at him made Jamie's heart inexplicably uneasy.
Jarrod was about to open his mouth to say something when Jamie suddenly said, "But it's okay if you
don’t want to wear it.You still look dashing in this suit, anyway."
As she spoke, she reached out and held Jarrod's arms, smiling brightly.
She said sweetly, “Let's go outside to welcome our guests.It's almost ten o'clock.They should be
arriving soon."
But Jarrod just stood there motionlessly with his hands in his pockets.
Jamie shook Jarrod's arm gently.
It was only then that he reacted.
He removed her hand and looked at her solemnly.
“Jamie, there are no guests."
Jamie looked at him in confusion.
What did he mean by no guests? For a moment, Jamie couldn't understand what Jarrod meant.
She grabbed his arm again and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen that the guests couldn't
make it?"
She thought it didn't make sense.
Even if one or two guests couldn't come, it wouldn't be a problem.
How could there be no guests at all? Once again, Jarrod was silent for a while.
Then he said, “Jamie, I'm sorry."
Jamie was even more confused.
She didn't know what Jarrod was apologizing for, but it made her heart plummet.She was so anxious
that she clung to his arm tightly.She forced a smile and said, “Jarrod, it's okay if there are no guests.We
can proceed with the wedding as planned.After all, I'm marrying you, not the guests or anyone else."
Although Jamie spoke calmly and confidently, the anxiety in her eyes betrayed her true feelings.She
felt deeply unsettled now.
What was going on with Jarrod? Was he reluctant to marry her now? Jamie did her best to force herself
to dispel her unease.
She didn't dare to think about it again.
They were going to get married soon, so she shouldn't entertain such negative thoughts.
Jarrod sighed deeply and said, "Jamie, there won't be a wedding."
He sounded apologetic but firm.
"I canceled it."
After Jarrod left the Oasis Apartment early this morning, he went to his other apartment to rest.
However, he kept having nightmares.
He always dreamed of Nicole covered in blood.
Her two eyes, devoid of pupils, were like two bloody holes, staring intensely at him.
"Jarrod, I'm dead now.Are you happy?"
These words sent a sharp pain in his heart, jolting him awake.
His temples throbbed intensely, and his head ached so much.
Her previous words, "I will never be your mistress even if I die."
kept ringing in his ears over and over again.
Finally, Jarrod succumbed to his feelings toward Nicole.He made a decision.He canceled the wedding
without telling Jamie.
Before any guests could arrive at the venue, he asked Alec to contact them and inform them that the
wedding would not push through.
Jamie's mind went blank for a moment.
She grabbed Jarrod's sleeve tightly, looking at him with eyes widened in disbelief.
When she came back to her senses, she said, “Jarrod, are you kidding me? Everything is ready.
Maybe the guests are already on their way.
How can you say there is no wedding? How can we not get married?"
“Jamie, I'm sorry.I'll make it up to you," Jarrod said apologetically.
Jamie shook her head frantically.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, smudging her makeup.She looked even more pitiful.
"No! Jarrod, you can't do this to me.I don't need your compensation.All I need is you.I want nothing but
to marry you.I don't want anything else in this world.Only you! I want to be your bride, your wife!"
Jarrod's eyes were filled with guilt.
But he still said unwaveringly, "Jamie, I can give you anything you want except marriage."
This time, Jamie lost control of her emotions.
She shouted, "No! I don't want it.I want nothing but you.I want to marry you!"
Jamie clutched Jarrod's sleeve tightly.
Her tears fell on his suit.
She looked at him pitifully and pleaded, “Jarrod, you can't abandon me.You promised you would never
abandon me.Jarrod, marry me.Please...I promise I won't be so willful in the future.I'll be a dutiful wife.I
will do everything you say."
Jamie was so heartbroken that she cried hysterically.She didn't want any compensation.
If she married Jarrod, she would have everything.
A mere compensation was nothing.
She wanted everything! Everything! At the thought of this, Jamie cried even harder.
It was as if her heart was broken into pieces.
When Jarrod saw this, his expression softened.
Jamie didn't care if her makeup was ruined.
Her appearance didn't matter now.
There was only one thing in her mind.
Jarrod had to stay and marry her no matter what.
At this moment, the door was pushed open again, and Alec came in.
When Alec saw the scene inside the lounge, he turned around and was about to leave.
However, Jarrod stopped him.
"Give me the phone," Jarrod ordered.
Jarrod drank a lot.
He was so drunk that he didn't even notice he had dropped his phone and broken it.
There had been many calls in the morning, but the screen couldn't display them.
Therefore, he decided to just turn it off.
Alec handed the new phone to Jarrod with both hands.
Jarrod checked the call history and saw many missed calls from different numbers.
Some were saved on his phone, and some were not.
Suddenly, a voice message prompt popped up.
His eyes widened when he found it was from Nicole.He turned to Jamie and said, "I have to make a
phone call."
Jarrod shook off Jamie's hand and walked to the side.
He pressed the voice message and listened to it.
The message was filled with crackling noises.
Instantly, a bad hunch surged in his heart, making him feel uneasy.
Then, Nicole's sad and desperate voice sounded, "Jarrod, please save my dad..."
Jarrod's mind went blank.He felt like his nightmares turned into reality.His heart ached so much.
It was as if an invisible hand was tearing it apart mercilessly.
