I couldn’t understand what Sabrina was being so nervous about. Who would have known that someone so carefree about everything would be afraid of getting married?
“Really? I said that? Well, he could at least have someone else deliver a message or something! I still think he shouldn’t have gone completely silent like that! I haven’t been able to sleep a wink last night, and he didn’t even bother to comfort me or say anything today. Something definitely isn’t right, or he wouldn’t have hung up on me so quickly!” Sabrina then put her hands on her hips as she continued mumbling to herself, “I’ll be sure to make him pay when he gets here… He won’t be taking me with him so easily!”
Oh, no… What is Sabby up to this time? I got nervous when I saw Sabrina setting up some traps in the house, and I couldn’t help but remind her, “Sabby, this is your wedding, not someone else’s! Make sure you don’t go overboard with this!”
“He claimed he was too busy to keep me company because he was on some kind of special mission! How dare he call himself a member of the special forces if he can’t even manage his time well? Hmph! I don’t care! I’m going to make him suffer for a bit today!” Sabrina pouted and dragged me over to help her out.
“Eve, what do you think a seven-year itch feels like? Would it come early for us? What if we get into fights often?”
“No, I don’t think that’ll happen. Given how nice a guy Zachary is, I think you’ll be the one bullying him instead!” I replied while rolling my eyes at her.
“I guess you’re right. Still, your relationship with Christopher has been put through all sorts of trials, so it makes sense that you’re so calm about this. What if Zachary has a childhood sweetheart or something? What if she shows up at our wedding and causes a scene? How am I supposed to handle that?”
“That’s not going to happen!”
“Say, what if…”
“Oh, my god! I can’t believe you’re already worrying so much before you and Zachary are even married! You’d better stop this crap or I won’t speak to you again. Do you hear me?”
After what seemed like a pandemonium at the house, Zachary was able to successfully take Sabrina out of the house. Putting aside the buckets of water above the doors and the chairs coated with glue, everything seemed perfect.
As Sabrina insisted on me being her bridesmaid despite my marital status, Christopher shamelessly took the place of the existing groomsman and stood next to me. “What, you got a problem?” he asked coldly when he saw Zachary staring at him.
Zachary quickly shook his head, and Sabrina whispered something into his ear. He then looked like he had a sudden realization and said seriously, “I’ll be sure to toss the bouquet accurately into your hands, Sir! That way, no one will be able to get their hands on it! You’ll be able to hold your wedding smoothly for sure!”
“Heh… Much appreciated!” Christopher rubbed his palms gleefully as he whispered, “I’ll be sure to get him wasted tonight! Let’s see how he’ll spend the night with his bride!”
I’ll never understand the friendship between men… I thought to myself and let out an awkward chuckle in response.
Upon arrival at the hotel, we walked along the red carpet together as we made our way toward the event hall. I stopped in my tracks all of a sudden when I noticed a familiar figure in the crowd. The person also happened to turn around at the same time and flashed me a sinister grin in response.
“Crystal?” I exclaimed in shock.
Christopher followed my gaze and frowned when he saw her. After all, Crystal did try to seduce him on the ship.
“You head on over. I’ll join you in a bit,” I said as I saw Sharon making her way toward us. She rarely attends such social events and should be resting in the hospital due to her recently poor health. What’s she doing here?
“Long time no see, Yvonne! You look as great as ever!” Crystal raised her chin and shot me an arrogant smile as she continued, “By the way, I heard you were diagnosed with some terminal illness. Is that true?”
