Worried that there might have been a mistake, I tugged on Emery’s arm and whispered, “Hey, Emery, do you think we might’ve gotten our outfits mixed up? You have a much better figure than I do, so you should be the one wearing this wedding dress, right?”
“Nah, I’m pretty sure Summer has her reasons for letting you wear this dress. Maybe the vibes you give off suit this one better or something. Don’t worry about it and just wear it confidently!” Emery replied with a smile.
I was about to say something in response but held my tongue as the assistant approached us with a tray in hand.
Emery seemed to have gotten rather close to the staff members here and stepped right up to retrieve the items on the tray. She then turned toward me and handed me a masquerade mask as she said, “Here, put this on and we can head over to the bridal chamber!”
“Bridal chamber? Aren’t we supposed to go on the catwalk instead?” I asked in confusion as I took the mask from her.
Emery arched an eyebrow at me and explained seriously, “Yeah! This fashion show places great emphasis on tradition, and your daughter is quite the perfectionist. It shouldn’t be hard to understand why we have to go through these formalities, right?”
She’s right. This fashion show is being broadcasted live across the entire country, after all. With so much detail being put into the decor, it’s only natural that we go the whole nine yards and include the bridal chamber bit!
“Yeah, you’re right. Let’s do this for Summer!” I then put my mask on and had the assistant help me tighten the straps so they wouldn’t fall off.
Although it was just a tiny addition to my outfit, the mask added a sense of mystery to the beautiful bride vibes.
Emery left after escorting me to the bridal chamber, and I sat on the bed all by myself.
I scanned the room around me out of boredom, and I couldn’t help but feel impressed by the amount of effort the staff members had put into the decoration. Every single piece of furniture was a work of art down to the tiniest detail, and I found myself captivated by the beauty of it all.
“Fine lady of Stovall Corporation, your beauty and grace are unparalleled in this world, and I thank the heavens for granting me this fine opportunity to take your hand in marriage. Will you marry me?”
The door to the bridal chamber was then opened, and a staff member dressed as a maid entered the room.
“After you, milady.”
“Okay.”
I took a deep breath in an attempt to calm myself down before slowly stepping out of the bridal chamber. The maid then held my hand as I made my way down the red carpet in front of everyone.
Every step I took was filled with anxiety and unease.
It wasn’t until the male model playing the part of the groom stepped forward to face me that the maid left my side.
The model had a great figure that really complimented the outfit he was wearing and looked like he had stepped right out of a painting.
He was already getting everyone hyped up even with the mask on, so I didn’t dare imagine how crazy they would get if they saw his face.
Looks like Summer was right to have us wear masks for this. Ashton would definitely get jealous as hell if he saw me attending a traditional wedding with another handsome guy!
I was so distracted by my thoughts that I spaced out for a bit before quickly carrying on with the procedure. The both of us then continued walking down the red carpet while the crowd cheered us on.
The sounds of the women giving us their blessings and the men praising our aesthetics were accompanied by flower petals flying all around us.
It was so beautiful and dreamy that I felt like I was back to being a teenage girl experiencing love for the first time.
“Will you marry me, Letty?” The deep and attractive voice of a man from behind snapped me out of my daze.
