Chapter 17: The Wedding
The woman tried to control herself so that Jerold wouldn't get suspicious. "You don't need to feel guilty. That day there was no connection between me and him."
"Wow. And during this month you both decided to get married? What kind of joke is this, hey?!"
"Our marriage was no joke! I told you that our love story was different from the others, bastard! Are you deaf, huh?!"
Jerold was unfazed by Gizelle's words directed at him. He smirked.
"Even if you both really love each other and want to get married, why are you still working here? Even your marriage is only a week away, is your future husband's wealth not enough for you?"
"Don't ask too many questions! If you jealous just say it!"
Good answer! If Jerold hadn't been silenced like this, the man would definitely not have stopped asking the questions that made Gizelle's heart almost jump out of place.
And then the man stammered. His mouth was open, but he didn't know what to say.
Damn it! It seemed that Gizelle knew that he liked her.
"I know you have feelings for me, Jerold," now it was Gizelle's turn to smile with satisfaction seeing Jerold's bright red face.
"Go back to the kitchen or I'll buy your mouth with my future husband's treasure!"
That sentence managed to make the man lower his head in shame and walk briskly toward the kitchen.
Tch! The man seemed to have forgotten who he was talking to.
The future wife of the CEO of REAGANZ CORP, Mrs. Kenric, hahaha.
****
The long awaited day has arrived. Wedding.
Such a lavish wedding was held in one of the five-star hotels in the Berlin city center. When the sacred procession was carried out, many guards were on guard around the location as well as invited guests from the top business circles, closest relatives, and only nuclear families.
Well, it's not that crowded when compared to the weddings of successful businessmen in this country.
Kenric didn't expect himself to be standing at the altar in an ivory tuxedo, white shirt, and black pants. He looked amazingly handsome, waiting for his bride who was walking towards him.
That woman... ah- quite beautiful indeed. But Kenric still hopes that this event is just a dream. He didn't even have any idea of getting married before this.
Then faced with the fact that he has to marry a woman he doesn't love and often even irritates him to death?
Damn it! The world is increasingly not on his side.
Gizelle looked a little nervous, but that nervousness couldn't hide her beauty, which was wrapped in an ivory white slim fit dress with a cut below the chest and perfectly puffed up to the bottom.
All eyes were on her. Especially the stares from the men who were fascinated.
Gizelle took several breaths, feeling cold sweat starting to wet the palms of her hands holding the bouquet. However, she had to smile. Because now all the cameras are on her.
It was only a contract marriage, but she could be this nervous as if this marriage was very sacred and the only one.
Isn't this what she wanted? Then why be afraid? Why be nervous? It's just a step away so she can get a prosperous life with Kenric's inexhaustible treasure and the assets of her two best friends.
Oh- how a beautiful world.
And when the woman was near, Kenric's heart beat a thousand times faster. When he looked at Gizelle closer, like an angel from heaven.
The man couldn't move his eyes from Gizelle. That cheap bartender... how can she be this beautiful, huh?!
Shit! What is he talking about? Kenric must have gone mad for saying that Gizelle was beautiful even if only in his heart.
And now, they are facing each other. Staring at each other.
Oh, God! This is her dream, isn't it? She married Kenric Reagan that haughty and arrogant man, a loyal customer who always orders vodka and loves to fuck bitches, right? Oh my gosh!
Really, she never thought of that. Never thought it would be this fast, this easy, and this sad life. Marrying a man who is not her choice just for the sake of wealth.
Ah, I think most women are materialistic. And Gizelle is one of them.
"Kenric, is this real?"
"No. It's just a bad dream. Get up and get out of this damn dream!"
"I can't believe I married my customer. By the way... you look so handsome tonight."
"And this handsome guy doesn't deserve to be with an ugly one like you."
Oh my gosh! He's so hypocritical. Another in the mouth, another in the heart.
But Gizelle was not offended by this man's answer. She gulped many times because she could not resist the charm of the man who in a few minutes would become her husband.
Oh- how many women have their hearts broken now? Should today be called the day of the heartbreak of Berlin?
"I, Kenric Federico Reagan, accept you, Gizelle Castarica, as the only and legitimate wife in the eyes of God. I promise to always love you, whether you are happy or sad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, until death do us part. I promise that everything that is mine is yours too."
"I, Gizelle Castarica, accept you, Kenric Federico Reagan, as your only and legitimate husband in the eyes of God. I promise to always love you, whether you are happy or sad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, until death do us part. I promise that everything that is mine is yours too."
The two of them kissed each other following the priest's instructions. There is no enjoyment there, just a little touch to trick the invited guests.
"Don't think that I will kiss you like a prince kisses a princess," Kenric whispered in Gizelle's ear.
"Don't worry I'm an expensive woman who will be chased, not chasing."
Ugh... this woman is so arrogant. It seemed that his contract wife was waving a war flag at him. Let's see, who will lose in the war!
