章節 6: Woke up from deep Slumber
"I do not want to marry this man!"
"..."
There was a thirty seconds silence before the whole wedding hall went in an uproar.
The bride's voice was so angelic and soothing. She looked like a fairy from other world.
But that was not the point, the point was, she just said no!
What the hell did they hear? Did the bride say no?
The priest wondered if she was in her right state of mind. He was internally screaming.
Oh lord, what was wrong with this woman? Did she drink too much in her bachelorette party?
The priest coughed slightly, he thought perhaps she didn't understand him since she was a well known dimwit.
Hence he repeated himself but the bride's reply left him speechless.
"No, I don't want to marry this man. Who gave you the right to get me married?"
Jamie felt like the ground under his feet giving away. Why now, of all times, when he was so close to getting what he wanted.
He gripped her hand and asked
"Why?"
Alina felt pain but she pulled her hand back and her eyes filled with undisguised disgust and hatred as she turned to look at him.
"You should know why"
Jamie didn't know why but in his heart he felt that she knew of his plan and what she's going to say next would ruin him.
He still asked her, he was confident that this was one of her pathetic antics so he ignored the anxious voice within him.
"You tell me why. Why do you not want to marry me?"
Alina looked straight into Jamie's eyes pressuring him to look at her. Her powerful aura spread through the church.
"If you insist, don't blame for the aftermath"
She took deep breath, this was it. Her chance of breaking from this shackle called marriage. She'll break free from this nightmare.
"Let's be honest, I don't like you. You don't like me. Why are we even here? I thought I am fulfilling my dead grandparent's wishes but I forgot what they truly wish for me is to be happy and being married to you would never make me happy. I would only drown in sorrow. I don't want to get in the way of your great love story. I don't want to be the other woman."
Her voice was cold, devoid of emotions as if she was merely commenting on weather.
The people listening to her were astonished. This was not how it's supposed to happen. They wanted to stop her but her powerful aura left them motionless.
"What can you really do with the 25% of my company share? If you are that ambitious to become family head of the Li, you need to use someone even more powerful and ambitious than me.
I wouldn't marry a man like you, who clearly sees me as a tool. Hence, this wedding is called off. And don't think I need to explain myself more. I hope you live well with the love of your life."
The church was silent for a long time, every word she said resounded through the walls of the church.
They didn't know what to say, after all what she said was true. She didn't want to marry a man just to become his tool.
The priest was shocked and utterly amazed. The world of rich was truly another world.
He coughed and looked at the groom but to his surprise, the groom stood frozen.
When the groom recomposed himself, it was already too late.
"Ali! Wait."
She did not turn back as if he's a mere fly, not worthy of her attention.
Before anyone could react, the rebellious bride who spoke up for herself walked off from the aisle without looking back.
She left a beautiful illusion of a queen walking her royal parade.
Proud and regal was the adjective that popped in people's mind when they saw her.
They were clueless as to what triggered the bride to speak up and storm off from the wedding when she was like a meek lamb minutes ago.
People speculated many things but they can only manage to come with a conclusion. Her family forced her to marry young master Li from the branch family and that he already has a lover.
Even though she didn't mention the lover's name, some people looked at the direction of her sister.
After all, her fiancé and her sister were almost inseparable. They thought it was just brother in law and sister in law bonding. But, who would have thought.
Such a pity. She was truly different or she might be waiting for the right moment to attack.
They saw how they treated her; their fake affections and the cheap antics were disgraceful. A person would treat their adopted daughter better than the way they treated their biological daughter.
Despite being the heiress of a multi-billion company, she was having a very simple wedding. This was unheard of.
What did her parents take her for?
Her father stood up
"Alina stop right there! If you leave, I'll disown you."
She turned to look at her so called father with a smirk on her face.
"Like you can?" She raised her brows looking at her father mockingly.
Her taunting voice made the man speechless, he watched her walk away.
Her father stood rooted to the ground, what was wrong with her? Wasn't this daughter of his, weak at will? She never spoke back to him.
He thought she was easy to manipulate. Did his wife give him wrong information? How dare she mock him!
He had a horrible feeling that she knew their plan.
But if she did why did she take action now when they were this close?
"Father what are we going to do?"
