John kept searching the banquet hall until he inadvertently looked up at the screen above the stage.Patrick, with a bouquet of white flowers, moved closer to Cordy and slowly lifted her veil.Her beauty was hence revealed to one and all, just as the lights illuminated her figure.Crystalline glint flashed over her bridal gown, unveiling her divine beauty endlessly.Everyone held either breaths, as if the dreamlike scene before them should never be disturbed.Patrick in turn gazed at her lovingly, taking a deep breath as he repressed his burgeoning excitement.He could not resist saying, "You're so beautiful, Cordy,"Cordy flashed a breathtaking smile in turn, and Patrick felt like he would suffocate from the devastating beauty.Nearby, Zoe could not help exclaiming, "Why isn't Cordy in showbiz? There's no debating the issue—those looks alone would get her to the top."Quinn nodded beside her, since Zoe's comment was no exaggeration.It was a great blessing for anyone to witn

Nana was holding a black gun, and she waited for the perfect moment before dashing up the stage—she was bent on killing Cordy when her happiness peaked!However, just as she brought her gun level at Cordy and was about to pull the trigger, a figure lunged forward and knocked Cordy to the floor, shielding her stalwartly behind himself.Nana blinked, but one glance was enough to register that it was John.So he was going to die protecting Cordy when she was marrying someone else?!As a matter of fact, Nana knew John was looking for her, even sending everyone he could to do so.However, Nana had crossdressed and hid herself in the men's room, eluding any prying eyes to slip into the banquet hall.She actually thought for a moment that the wedding would be called off, since John would have stopped it—she was certainly surprised that it carried on in the end.Who was being overconfident here, Cordy or John?Still, she had to give it to him—his presence made her pause, and she did no

"Cordy? Cordy?!"Patrick called out to Cordy repeatedly, but she was not responding, obviously stricken with fear."It's alright now, Cordy!" Patrick gathered her in his arms, his heart breaking just then.Cordy was trembling endlessly and uncontrollably, the sight of John and Nana just now replaying in her head…Where did that shot hit?!Patrick tightened his arms around her and kept assuring her, "It's alright now, Cordy. I'm here…"The guests in the hall were flustered and panicking too.Should they leave?But which was more dangerous, staying here or going outside? And were they going to continue the wedding? But the bride appeared to be in serious shock…While the hall erupted into pandemonium, Patrick promptly made up his mind. "Let's put the wedding on hold and get out of here for now…"Cordy suddenly grabbed Patrick by the arm with a sweaty palm."Cordy?" Patrick stared at her."What happened?" Cordy finally asked.Patrick certainly had no idea—he was too concern

Sean was no close friend of Patrick's, but he knew Sean enough that he would not lie about something so important.If Sean said John would live, then he would live.He turned toward Cordy, and said confidently, "Sean said John would live. He's probably just wounded, so Sean took him to the hospital."Cordy nodded silently.She did not ask any questions—because she was afraid to.It was the same for Patrick.All he asked was whether John was alive and nothing else…"Let's go, Cordy." Patrick helped her to her feet.Right now, he had to take her somewhere safe. He had no idea if Nana planned anything else, and safety was the best policy right now.Perhaps they could go to the hospital to visit John.Running was not an option.He toko Cordy's hand to lead her away while telling the staff, "Please handle the guests appropriately—""Patrick." Cordy suddenly stopped him.Patrick did a double take and turned toward Cordy in surprise."We're staying," she said solemnly.There

Cordy turned toward Zoe in surprise—she was rarely that serious."What's wrong, Zoe? Are you in shock too?" Cordy asked in concern. "Also, where's Jay? What's he doing, not staying with you? If you're still traumatized, head home, or take a break in the anteroom…""Jay left to check on John," Zoe said bluntly. "To see if he's dead.""He's not. Sean just called, saying that he's safe and taken to the hospital—""And does that mean you don't have to care?" Zoey demanded.Cordy blinked.Zoe was clearly emotional.Furious, even."John almost died trying to save you, and you really feel nothing? Or don't you care about that at all? You'd even continue your wedding after all that—is a wedding more important than a person's life?!" Zoe snapped, her voice louder with every word.She had always worshiped Cordy, never questioning Cordy's actions.But she could not help doing it now in front of all of Cordy's guests.Did John not deserve even a sliver of her sympathy? Did Cordy have to

Cordy took a deep breath and told Quinn, "I'm counting on you now. Patrick and I will arrange for the wedding to resume.""Okay.""Wait, where's Dicky?" Cordy suddenly remembered."I just saw him follow Sean outside. He must be with John—do you want me to check?""Yeah, thanks,"Cordy and Patrick left, while Quinn called to check if Richard was with John.She went looking for Cordy after she was done, and Cordy had already confirmed the new program with the emcee, and the wedding soon resumed.Some of the guests had left, but not that many—both Cordy and Patrick were people of influence, just as many would need to consider their positions.Moreover, if the bride and bridegroom feel that they could continue, there probably was no danger.As such, Cordy and Patrick stood together one stage once more, looking like a match made in heaven.The emcee livened things up, clearing the gloom before proceeding to the new schedule."Patrick Stuart, wilt thou have this woman to thy wedde

"I pronounce you husband and wife!" the emcee announced excitedly. "You may now kiss the bride."The hall erupted in thunderous applause at his words, and confetti popped above stage.The atmosphere at the wedding reached a climax even as Patrick stood face-to-face with Cordy, staring at her.She was looking fixedly into his eyes in turn, and the lights above illuminated their bright gazes with a celestial glint."Cordy," Patrick gently called out to her."Yeah.""Will you marry me?" he asked."Yeah." Cordy nodded—she had strong principles, and no one could force her to do anything."Will you regret it?""No," Cordy replied, shaking her head.Once she married him, her world would revolve around him and their family—no one would change that.Nonetheless, Patrick said bitterly, "But I'm worried I'll regret this."As Cordy's eyes widened, he continued, "I'm afraid I can't give you a happy family."Why?" Cordy asked, a little nervous.Patrick could do anything well—why would

Patrick kept his eyes on Cordy even as he continued, "I don't want to force this. I'm tired of it. I admit that I yearned to marry you, the only woman I've ever loved and the one who makes me want to give up on my former life… To start anew. I'd admit I was looking forward to this wedding so much I wanted to make it perfect, so that I won't have regrets. Even so… At this very moment, I regret it.""Patrick…""I'm sorry, Cordy." Patrick apologized."No, you don't have to apologize. It's unnecessary…" Cordy murmured, knowing very well that Patrick was suddenly regretful because she did not want her to be sad.He was convinced that she still loved John, and nothing she said now would work.She did not want to lie to Patrick, not when he was so pure and innocent."I'm sorry for embarrassing you in front of so many guests. It's willful of me," Patrick said, and reached out to take her veil off.The guests were left stunned, since they did not see a kiss.It was certainly weird that
