Chapter 25: Even the person you’re trying to protect can be wrong
Noman looked to Cindy, “Still going in?”
He was afraid Cindy wouldn’t be able to carry it.
“Go in, I still have a scene to finish.”
Cindy took the lead and walked towards the front door of the hotel.
Noman followed, they had the invitation in their hands, so it was unhindered.
Linda was dressing up in the hotel dressing room, followed by a few bridesmaids, all smiling and saying complimentary things.
Linda is even more proud of herself, after today, she only needs to say one word, and the whole of New York will shake a little!
At this time, Louise came in with an ugly face, “Are you ready?”
“Yes.”
Linda smiled shyly, overwhelmed by joy, not noticing Louise’s strange appearance, smiling sweetly and holding his hand then walked out.
On the red carpet, the doors of the auditorium slowly opened.
Linda wore a white veil, wearing an haute couture wedding dress, glittering, appeared at one end of the red carpet, and at the end, stood Eric in a suit.
Linda looked at the man across from her through the wedding veil and her heart glowed.
That man, finally, belongs to her.
As the crowd watched, the wedding march began to reverberate, Linda took Louise’s hand and walked toward Eric.
“The father of the bride may hand over the bride to the groom.”
With these words of the priest, Linda’s hand was handed over to Eric.
Both of them wore white gloves and followed the process, continuing the wedding.
Linda could not feel the temperature of the man’s hand across the table, dropping her eyes and hiding her shyness.
“Before the wedding ceremony officially begins, I would also like to share with everyone here the token of the two couples, which is a testimony of their long-lasting love.”
The ceremonial lady on one side held a tray in her hand and showed the two half-pieces of pendants on it to everyone present.
Offstage, Cindy raised her eyebrows, the good show was on.
” Priest, please stop for a moment!”
The clear voice penetrated the softness of the background music and called everyone’s heart to shake.
On the stage, Eric was the first to hear her voice, and he turned his head sideways with a warning look.
Cindy blinked, unconcerned.
Under the watchful eyes of all the guests, she gladly got up and walked down the aisle towards the couple.
Linda’s spine stiffened the moment she saw Cindy.
Cindy!
When did she come out?
No, how did she have the right to enter her wedding venue?
“Eric, she must be here to cause trouble, get her out of here.” Linda was anxious.
Eric’s eyes were dark, his relationship with Cindy was known to everyone in New York.
The Cindy he remembered would not do such a ridiculous thing.
He frowned unconsciously and just watched Cindy, step by step, walk to the center of the auditorium.
“Eric.”
Linda jumped to her feet in anxiety, why was he silent, did he still have feelings for Cindy?
Cindy kept a smile on her face, bearing the stares of those who were watching, and slowly spoke, “Mr. Miller and Miss Kelly’s big day, I, a person who came here, would like to say a few words of blessing in person, no problem, right?”
Eric stared at her with cold eyes.
Linda, however, was very calm, “Miss Scott, it’s not a good idea, let’s wait until the ceremony is over, and let’s talk in private.”
After saying that, she kept smiling while giving a wink to the security guards off stage.
Cindy curled her lips.
Without waiting for the security guard to come over, Cindy suddenly stepped forward and very smoothly took the piece of the pendant in the priest’s hand.
“Hey? You …” the priest hadn’t even reacted.
Cindy shook the pendant, “There are some things that Miss Kelly may be ashamed to say, then let me tell you, this pendant has a very romantic origin, this is Miss Kelly once saved Mr. Miller, accidentally left behind.”
Linda smiles more stiffly, clutching the wedding dress hand more tightly.
Cindy clearly saw her panic, smile deepened, “Want me to say, or you confess yourself?”
Linda got anxious, “Cindy, what the hell are you doing? Give it back to me!”
Cindy’s elbow shifted, avoiding her touch, making Linda pounce, but then she felt a force tugging at her wrist, unable to move at all.
Linda gritted her teeth in anger and pointed at Cindy, “Eric, this woman is deliberately coming to ruin our wedding, are you going to let it go?”
The hand under the man’s sleeve slowly tightened, and the aura of unrestrained anger radiated out, and Cindy clearly understood that this was a precursor to his anger.
Cindy blinked and smiled, “Mr. Miller, take it easy, it’s a fake.”
“A fake?”
There was a noisy murmur from the stage.
It’s just a pendant, what’s the difference between real and fake?
Eric tugged her hand very hard, not caring whether she was in pain or not, “Cindy, there is a limit to my tolerance.”
Cindy tilted her head, ignoring his warning.
“Coincidentally, there is a limit to my tolerance. By the way, let me remind you, so many reporters are taking pictures and videos, you’d better be a gentleman, so as not to look bad in the newspaper tomorrow.”
The bright face near at hand, but mixed with some strange, Eric actually trance, hand strength cannot help but let go.
Cindy took the opportunity to directly take a glass of red wine, in front of Linda and Eric, and gently, throw the pendant in.
Slightly shake the glass a few times, then, hand a loose.
Pop.
The glass of red wine shattered on the ground, all spilled on Linda’s noble wedding dress.
“Ah!”
Linda was so angry that she screamed, if not for the bridesmaids pulling her, she would have pulled Cindy’s hair on the spot, “You’re crazy, do you know how much this wedding dress is worth?”
“Is it worth it? That’s a pity, because, soon, you won’t be worth anything.”
Cindy squatted down and picked up the pendant from the ground, the upper part of the material body, which was somewhat gray, was soaked off, revealing the original vermilion color.
But the strange thing is that the red pendant is clearly engraved with “Cindy”!
All the guests on stage were wide-eyed, this was even better than a magic trick.
The bride and groom’s love token, but engraved with the name of his ex-wife?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
How could …
Linda was also shocked and speechless.
Cindy looked at them both with a smile, “Mr. Miller, you can’t imagine, right? This pendant is mine. You actually take a liar, as your own lifesaver.”
In a flash, Linda blushed, “No, it’s not, Eric, it’s not what she said!”
