“What can be more important than his own wedding?! Where is he? Take me to him. I don’t want to go to
the chapel. I want to find him and have him go to the chapel with me.” Emily knew just how humiliating it
would be if the groom never showed up while she, the bride, waited in the chapel.
Hence, she insisted on appearing hand in-hand with Arthur.
Her parents had already gone ahead to the chapel to greet the guests while she was supposed to show
up in a grand fleet, where a row of guards of honor would be welcoming her arrival. How can I just show
up in a random car?!
“Miss Jennings, it’s getting late. Why don’t you head to the chapel first?”
“No, I want to show up with my groom!” Emily insisted, glaring at the bodyguard. “Tell me the truth.
Where is he, and who is he with?!”
“M-Miss Goodwin suddenly fell ill, and Young Master Weiss took her to the hospital.”
“Did they go with my ride?” Emily’s countenance was now beyond awful at this point, at even looking on
the verge of a breakdown. To think the first woman to sit in her car to the chapel was Sophia Goodwin!
The bodyguard nodded in affirmation, not daring to lie to her.
“Take me to the hospital.” Livid, Emily drew a deep breath. “Now!”
Like earlier, Arthur carried Sophia to the emergency room after arriving at the hospital. Many of the
doctors had gone to attend the wedding, so those stationed in the hospital were shocked for a few solid
moments when they saw the groom rushing into the hospital with a different woman in his arms.
Sophia was given IV fluid to cool down her body. Arthur stood by her bed and took in everything, from
how the nurse inserted a needle into Sophia’s arm to her frowning from enduring the pain, as well as
when the nurse reinserted the needle, for Sophia’s blood vessel was too fine, causing the nurse to
misalign by accident. At that, Arthur shot an icy glance at the nurse, who felt his apparent displeasure.
The nurse was sweating profusely. As if it already wasn’t stressful enough to work in front of the Young
Master Weiss, he even had his watchful gaze on her. She had indeed misaligned the needle by accident
because of her nervousness.
“Hurry up and get to the chapel!” Sophia shooed Arthur away, only for him to check his watch in
response. Just then, his phone rang, and he answered it. “Arthur speaking.”
Master Weiss, Miss Jennings refuses to go to the chapel. She insists on looking for you.”
“Don’t let her come,” he ordered monotonously.
“But Miss Jennings wouldn’t listen to me. She’s in my car as we speak.”
“Hand her the phone.”
Despite being exasperated, Emily suppressed her anger and spoke with a gentle voice after taking the
phone from the bodyguard. “Artic, I want to show up at the chapel with you. I’m coming over now. Wait
for me, alright?”
“You go ahead to the chapel.” Arthur didn’t want her anywhere near the hospital.
“No, I want to go with you.” she began whining.
“I can’t leave right now. Go to the chapel!” With that, he ended the call.
Sophia instantly knew Emily was looking for him after hearing the phone call. “Get to the chapel. I’m
alright now. You don’t need to stay here anymore.” She looked at him.
Arthur squatted down and riveted his gaze onto her for a few seconds before asking, “Sophia, can you
your boyfriend?”
Say what?! Sophia forgot to breathe for a second.
“If you’re willing to break up with your boyfriend, then I’m willing to call off my wedding.” He asserted
gravely as he looked resolutely at her.
Shocked, she sat right up but accidentally tugged on the tubbing in the process, causing her to wince in
pain. “Ow…”
Arthur instantly pressed her shoulders down, tucking her back in bed. “Don’t move.”
The last thing he wanted to see was her suffering another injection when she already had two.
Having barely any strength, Sophia limped right onto the bed. However, it didn’t stop her chest from
heaving, reeling in what the man had just said.
“What did you just say?” she asked in a barely audible tone.
Not expecting his words to frighten her, he squatted down and held her hands, saying with misty eyes, “I
said, if you’re willing to break up with your boyfriend, then I’m willing to-“
