It was finally the day of the long-anticipated wedding. They were blessed with sunny and clear skies that morning.


    The interior of the fortress was filled with colorful decorations. Both sides of the staircases were adorned with blooming red roses that exuded a sweet scent. This disy of roses extended all the way out of the fortress and toward the chapel behind it.


    The dreamlike setting was just like a scene from a fairytale.


    Family and friends from both sides were in attendance. Dressed in formal attires and with beaming faces, everyone stood outside the door, waiting for the bride''s arrival.


    "The bride is here!"


    Alyssa''s sweet and crisp voice echoed through the main hall of the fortress. Looking like a pure angel dressed in white, Lauren walked out slowly, apanied by Rose, Tatiana and Alyssa.


    At this moment, female family members from both sides were in the room. Jasper, Sean, and Liam, who had no other duties, were also present. The rest of the men were standing by the chapel.


    Lauren looked graceful and demure. The wedding dress, designed by Rose, wasn''t too showy. Instead, it entuated her simple yet elegant beauty.


    Her beautiful eyes gleamed as she smiled shyly.


    All the roses around the entire fortress seemed dull inparison to her. She was the only one whose beauty overshadowed everything else.


    Lauren had been eating well, taking her medications, and resting. With Landon''spany, she worked hard to nurse herself back to health. However, it was now winter in Bernardia. Despite her efforts and the thick, warm coat over her shoulders, she still staggered like a delicate flower whenever the wind blew.


    "Careful, Lauren." Thanks to Alyssa''s quick reactions, she helped Lauren regain her footing.


    Behind them, Tatiana and Rose wore worried expressions.


    "Ahh..." Lauren lifted her face toward Alyssa. She frowned slightly, expressing her guilt. She felt like she was too weak.


    Those who saw her felt bad for her.


    She had been tormented by psychological conditions previously, dealing with cold nces and living in suffering. She had fought so hard for her happiness. Now, as she was about to get married to the love of her life, the heavens cruelly robbed her of her health.


    In an instant, Alyssa''s eyes filled with tears. Even so, she held Lauren''s hands tightly and smiled. In a soft voice, she reassured her, "You''re fine. You''re doing great. This is just pre-wedding jitters." "We''re here with you, Lauren. Don''t be nervous!" Rose eximed from beside her, beaming as she teared up a little.


    Outside the main door was a retro and morous carriage, waiting to pick up the princess of the day for her wedding. Lauren blinked as she scanned her surroundings.


    "I''m sorry! Sorry for beingte!" Cyrus ran over, a head full of sweat, trying to catch his breath.


    "Hey, what took you so long? Everyone''s here except for you!"


    Mandy rushed forward to straighten Cyrus'' crooked tie and button up his cor. She grumbled, "Even Miley, the First Lady, managed toe from Kentina the night beforest. How busy with work did you have to be toe thiste? It''s so embarrassing to have everyone wait for you!"


    "I''m sorry, Mom. My flight was dyed a little. It was all my fault," Cyrus apologized, feeling regretful. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand.


    "Stop ming Cyrus, Mom. Because of his cases, he usually doesn''t get much sleep despite being tired. You should show him some love instead." Miley smiled warmly. It was her expertise to mediate betweer parties.


    Cyrus took this opportunity and said, "Exactly, Mom. You should show me some love."


    "Love you? You''ve got to be kidding


    me!" Mandy didn''t know whether tough or cry. She jabbed him in his musc chest. "Damien and Miley indulged you too much when you'' were a kid. You''re so disrespectful. Where are your manners? Kshould teach you a lesson!" N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Cyrus and Miley fell silent at the mention of Damien''s name. Their chests tightened.


    Mandy''s eyes reddened too. She quickly diverted the topic. "Look, Cyrus. What do you think of the bride?"


    Cyrus turned around and looked in Lauren''s direction.
