One of the bridesmaids, who struggled daily with redness in her face, could not help but mutter a cu breath, “Darn it! It is just getting married. What's the big deal? I wish you would marry again!”

In the makeup room, the bridesmaids remained silent while Clarissa continued her monologue, lost i "A woman in a wedding dress is truly the most beautiful sight. It's a shame we can only get married « “Mr. Males!”

you with your ties every morning, making breakfast, and waving goodbye to you with a smile as you head to work. We'll spend countless happy moments together.”

Marc's previously mild expression suddenly changed, and a strange emotion washed over

his face. He heard a faint but familiar voice in his ears.

“Marc, don’t move. Let me change your clothes.”

“Marc, don't worry. As long as you keep up with your rehabilitation, you'll definitely be able to stand “Marc, are you done with work? I've prepared lots of dishes, including grilled shrimp and

roast beef. Your favorites!”

“Marc, please don't ignore me.”

A pile of snacks was scattered across the coffee table, and Pearl sat cross—

Hubert pursed his lips and then picked up his phone to send a message to a WhatsApp group called Homewrecker Alliance.”

Hubert: [Pearl insists on watching the live broadcast of the wedding, and I can't stop her.” What shot Quentin: [Why should you stop her? Let her see how we're helping her get revenge!]

Hubert, who was watching the video where

a young man was about to engage in a fight, chuckled and asked Pearl, “Who's this kid?"

Pearl replied, “Caleb Males, Marc's cousin. His dad is Christopher Males.”

"Oh, so he's Marc's cousin. That's interesting,” Hubert remarked with curiosity. “It's rare for
