Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 516

Patrick and I held a wedding when Rosalie was 100 days old Although he wanted to hold a grand banquet. I refused to do so.

Mostly. I was too old to care about the formalities anymore. But I understood that it was Patrick's heart for me, and I did not refuse to hold the wedding

We just needed to call some good friends and have a Simple banquet.

Patrick couldn't convince me, so he naturally agreed.

In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day.

Shirley sent me the wedding dress.

Because it was a mini wedding. only seven or eight tables were available

Most of the guests came from my studio and Towering High Company.

Everyone was familiar with each other.

In order to solve the marriage problem of the older single women in my studio, Nancy and I also made a special effort on the seating row. We specifically put single men and women of marriageable age at one table, expecting them to develop their relationship

Early in the morning, I put on makeup in the loungeRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

The one who did my makeup was Amy. He refined the makeup for me, stood behind me and looked at me, "I've done your makeup so many times. and this is the first bridal makeup. I hope it is also the last time."

"Thank you.”

I appreciated her.

I thought, “It will be the last time.”

After I put on my wedding dress, I took out a pink diamond necklace from my bag and handed it to him, “Help me put it on." Amy took the necklace, blinked him eyes, and said, "This, this necklace can't be the one that

was reported in the news back then, right?”

"Itis. Patrick gave it to me. But then we had a bad relationship for a while, so it stayed with me. Today, it can be used again." I nodded.

Amy held the necklace in his hand and gently stroked it. "Oh my god, this is the most expensive thing I've ever seen.” He said, rubbing it on his face. "Gee, let me feel the smell of wealth."

I didn't stop him.

Only when he had appreciated it enough did he put the necklace on for me. When I put on it, Amy couldn't help nodding and said, "It's really the icing on the cake.”

Nancy opened the door and asked, "Are you ready? The ceremony is about to begin." "I'm ready."

I nodded and stood up.

Nancy looked at the necklace on my neck. She was stunned. "Wow, is this...”

"This is a whole big pink diamond!" Amy saw Nancy's expression and realized that she knew the ropes. He excitedly went over and said, "It's also the first time that I've seen such a big diamond. It's gorgeous!”

Nancy also came over and looked at it carefully. There were sparks in her eyes. "Oh my god, it's so beautifull”

"Right?!"

Nancy and Amy stood in front of me and looked at the diamond necklace over and over again.

When they were almost done enjoying, I asked, "Em, can I go out now?”

Nancy finally came to her senses. She nodded.

"Sure. Let's go. Or we'll miss the best timing.”

As she spoke, she dragged me out.

When I went out, I saw Patrick and Ryan stood over there.

My heart beat faster when I saw him.

Weddings were all about the father of the bride walking the bride down the aisle and then handing her over to the groom. Ryan was the most perfect choice for this role.

I walked over and called out, "Master."

Ryan nodded.

He didn't say anything.

As the wedding march played, the doors of the ballroom opened and I walked in with Ryan on my arm.

We stepped on the red carpet.

I saw Patrick standing at the other end of the red carpet. He was dressed in a black suit. and his hair was beautifully groomed. Looking at him, my tears couldn't help but have tears in my eyes.

Ryan took me forward. Step by step, I was getting closer and closer to Patrick.

What came to my mind was all the things we had experienced. From the first time we met, to later marrying him in Caroline's name. We got married. He sent me to prison. I came back to him with hatred and got divorced And a lot of things that happened afterwards.

We broke up and reconciled, over and over again.

I thought many times that I would never be with him again.

But I didn't dare to expect that one day I would step on the red carpet in a wedding. And the person waiting for me at the end of the red carpet was him.

Finally. I walked along the red carpet to his side.

Ryan handed me over to him.

He held my hand and took me to the priest.

Like all the grooms and brides, we exchanged our vows.

Saying I do.

Exchanging the rings.

A scene I've fantasized about countless times had finally come true.

When the priest said: "Groom, you may now kiss your bride.”

Patrick lifted my veil.

I looked up expectantly and saw his forced smile.

His forehead was covered with sweat.

My heart throbbed.

I knew that he had been standing for so long that his legs must have been unable to bear it. I didn't care about anything else at that moment. I reached out to hug him and kissed him. When I kissed him, the audience burst into applause.

I could feel Patrick holding me tightly, with most of his weight on me.

After kissing, he hugged me and said in a very soft voice, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay.” I was worried about him. "Shall we ask Jeremy to bring your crutches...” "No, it's okay, I can do it."

Before I could finish my words, Patrick interrupted me.

He just took a break from holding me and straightened up.

Then we could get off the stage

This banquet hall was very big. Patrick had to walk for several meters.

This distance was just a few steps».

for us normal people. But when I noticed ‘that his hand holding me was.all sweaty, I Knew that iLwas too'far for . to

I helped him to walk down.

He looked calm and composed, but his hand was getting more and more sweaty.

Step by step, we finally made it.

In the applause, we entered the lounge.

When the door of the lounge opened, he directly fell forward!

"Patrick!"

I was so scared that I rushed to him.

Behind us, Nancy and Roger followed us. They were also shocked when they saw Patrick falling.

"What's going on?" Nancy looked at me

"I'm fine." Before I could answer, Patrick, who was lying there, answered first. "My legs hurt. I'll be fine after resting for a while." After Patrick finished, he sat up on his own. His forehead was full of sweat.

He took off his suit jacket, and the shirt inside was completely soaked with sweat.

Seeing this, my heart ached terribly.

Although I couldn't feel it, looking at the large amount of sweat, I could imagine what kind of pain he just suffered. "Why are you pushing yourself?" I felt bad when I saw Patrick like this.

Tears swirled in my eyes.

on the back and said, "It's okay. Is only have one wedding with youin my i life. I just don't want to have any regrets. : to

As he spoke, he was still gasping heavily with his chest rising and falling strongly.

After resting for a while, he continued, "See, I held on. It’s all over.”

"Well, don't pushing yourself next time.”

"There won't be a next time.” Patrick held my face and said gently, "This marriage will last a lifetime. There will be no next time."

As he spoke, he bent over and kissed me.

Behind me; heard Nancy and Roger leaving.a and closing the door. I was no longer shy. I raised my hand; hooked around his neck, and kissed back warmly. Content belatgs ite) -

Between the kisses, he said in a slightly husky voice, "I love you.” "Me too.” For the rest of my life, I would only love Patrick.
