After a night, when the sun rose in the sky, it was time to announce the arrival of a new day. It was also
announced that the Hundred Cities wedding would be officially held. The weather was much better than
yesterday. It was as if the heavens were also congratulating Joseph and Paige. A few days ago, it was NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
cloudy and rainy, representing the pain that Paige had endured. And now the sky was cloudless, blue
like the ocean, and bright. It was as if it was a preview of Paige’s life. From now on, it would usher in a
brand new future… At seven o’clock in the morning, Chloe got up and took Joseph out to play. Of
course, Paige knew that the wedding that caused a sensation in Oplen and even in the Central Region
would be held today. However, she forced herself not to think about those things, because the more
she thought about it, the more upset she felt. Not to mention this wonderful wedding in Oplen, even if it
was an ordinary wedding, she had never had one. Even last afternoon, she wanted to go to get the
marriage certificate with Joseph, but Joseph refused, so she couldn’t help wondering what Joseph was
thinking in his heart. What’s more, when she came back from the Mooney family the day before
yesterday, she wanted to leave Oplen, not only because of her family but also because she didn’t want
to hear the news about the wedding in Oplen. She wanted to escape but was rejected by Joseph…
Now, after breakfast, Paige looked at Joseph, who was dragged downstairs by Chloe to play, and the
disappointment in her heart became even more intense. At the Cathedral in the center of Oplen was
the Hundred Cities wedding, about to begin. Joseph had gone downstairs to play with Chloe. Paige
stayed at home alone, and she was very disappointed. In the living room, Estella and Yahir looked at
the bitter figure of Paige. They also felt saddened. Yes, the Hundred Cities wedding held in Oplen was
so beautiful and romantic. However, their daughter could not attend it. Estella signed up for them
behind Paige’s back, but they didn’t pass. Estella also knew in her heart that Chloe was already more
than four years old. How could Joseph and Paige pass the selection criteria? “Alas.” Estella and Yahir
looked at each other with a deep sigh when they saw the disappointed look on Paige’s face. But just as
they were about to say something to comfort her, someone knocked on the door. When Estella went to
open the door, she saw a pretty girl. The girl smiled at Estella and said, “Hi Madam, nice to meet you.
I’m Bethany, Paige’s good friend. Is she at home?” Estella hurriedly nodded with a smile and said, “Yes,
she’s at home. My dear, please come in…” As Estella said this, she hurriedly welcomed Bethany in.
After Bethany came in, Paige was also stunned. She looked at Bethany in surprise and asked,
“Bethany? Why are you here?” Bethany walked up to her. Somehow, Paige felt that there was
something wrong with Bethany today. Bethany looked at her with a very complicated look. But before
Paige could ask, Bethany held her arm with a smile and said, “Since there is the Hundred Cities
Wedding here, of course, I have to come and have a look. Besides, you are here. Let’s go and have a
look together. It’s a Hundred Cities Wedding. It’s such a grand event and we haven’t had one in a
hundred years. If we miss it…” As Bethany spoke, she dragged her out. She had a big task today,
which was to take the main bride to the wedding scene. At this moment, Bethany was extremely
excited, but she had to hold back her excitement. This was a great surprise, and she could not destroy
it. “Well… that, Bethany, I… I… I won’t go, I… I…” Paige didn’t want to go, but she rarely lied, so when
she was invited by her good friend Bethany, she couldn’t think of a way to refuse. “Hey, Paige, what are
you waiting for? Let’s go. The wedding is about to begin. Let’s go. Aren’t you in a bad mood? Let’s go
and relax. Let’s go, hurry, hurry, hurry..” At this time, Serena, who came out of the bedroom, also held
Paige’s other arm with great excitement. Serena and Bethany looked at each other, and they instantly
understood each other’s meaning. So the two women worked hard together happily and took Paige
out. “Ser… Serena, you, you…” Estella saw that Paige was pulled out by Bethany and Serena. She
couldn’t help but glare at Serena. Bethany was an outsider, so she naturally didn’t know what had
happened the previous day. But what was wrong with Serena? Did she not realize that Paige was in a
bad mood? However, Serena turned back and smiled at Estella. Without saying anything, she went out
with Bethany and Paige. Inside the house, Estella and Yahir looked at each other, and the two of them
went downstairs with some worries. But when they went downstairs, Bethany had already driven away
with Paige. They could only watch the car driving away, and then disappear from their sight. “Yahir, tell
me, alas…” Estella sighed deeply. Yahir’s expression was also extremely complicated. He took a deep
breath and was about to say something. Suddenly, a black brand new Rolls-Royce in the distance
drove over and stopped directly beside him and Estella. The next moment, Dennis, the president of the
Gempoint Group, dressed in a black suit with a little red flower on his chest, got out of the car with his
wife, Tang Yun, who was wearing a white cheongsam and high heels. “Are you Yahir Mooney?” Dennis
smiled and said to Yahir, who was confused. Yahir looked at Dennis and was a little stunned. The
biggest boss in Oplen actually came to him? What was going on? Yahir couldn’t figure it out, but this
man was Dennis Drake! He was the president of Gempoint Group. Yahir quickly and cautiously said,
“Mr… Mr. Drake… Yes, I am Yahir. May I ask, you… why are you looking for me?” Dennis secretly
breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Yahir’s answer. He said to Yahir with a very respectful smile,
“Mr. Mooney, let’s go. I’ll take you to the wedding…” “Mr… Mr. Drake, did you make a mistake? We
didn’t get an invitation to attend the Hundred Cities wedding, did we? And… and our daughter didn’t
successfully sign up for it. And, and you came to pick her up in person?” Before Yahir could speak,
Estella, who was beside him, asked Dennis with a puzzled face. Although she was confused, she was
sure that Dennis had looked for the wrong person. Dennis smiled at Estella. His wife, Tang Yun, who
was standing next to him, was also in charge of the business in Oplen. She walked over to Estella with
a smile, took her arm, and said, “Madam Sheppard, my husband is right. Let’s go and get in the car. I’ll
accompany you. It’s too late. The Hundred Cities wedding is about to start… Let’s talk in the car…” As
Tang Yun spoke, she pulled Estella into the car. Dennis pulled Yahir into the car. After the four of them
got in the car, the Rolls Royce started and drove away. After Yahir and Estella got in the car, they found
that there were countless Rolls Royces with colorful decorations following behind them. Yahir and
Estella were completely stunned. After seeing such a grand scene, they were really a little scared.
Yahir swallowed his saliva in fear and asked Dennis, who was sitting opposite him, “Mr… Mr. Drake,
can you tell me now? What, what the hell is going on? How could we qualify to attend the Hundred
Cities Wedding?” Dennis smiled and said, “Yahir, you are too modest. If you are not qualified, then I am
even less qualified… Of course, you are qualified. And if you don’t go with Madam Sheppard today, this
Hundred City wedding is incomplete…” Without waiting for Yahir to continue asking questions, Tang
Yun faced Estella, who was equally confused and said enviously, “Madam Sheppard, you really have a
good daughter and found a good son-in-law. Cheer up. I’ve already prepared new clothes for you at the
wedding. When we arrive, we’ll go get changed. Today is your daughter’s wedding day. You don’t have
to ask about anything else. Anyway, the wedding will officially begin in an hour. At that time, you and
your husband will understand everything. In short, you just have to believe me. We didn’t pick up the
wrong person…” After hearing Tang Yun’s words, Yahir and Estella’s hearts were immediately filled
with confusion. The two of them no longer asked any more questions. They only thought in their hearts
that their younger daughter, Serena, could not possibly be getting married. She didn’t even have a
boyfriend and had yet to officially graduate from university. Was this Paige’s wedding then? However,
they had never heard of it from Joseph… “Wait!” An incredible thought suddenly flashed through
Estella’s mind. When they first met Joseph, Joseph once said in front of them that he was going to hold
a grand wedding for Paige! Was it Joseph? But it shouldn’t be. Didn’t Joseph say that he would hold a
wedding with Paige next month instead of now? Estella was more confused. However, despite her
confusion, the Rolls-Royce motorcade continued to drive on. Estella and Yahir also saw a red Ferrari
sports car in front of them. When Bethany and Serena brought Paige to the scene of the Hundred
Cities wedding, it was already crowded with people. There were three rings of people inside and three
rings outside. The crowds were massive! When they arrived, the 1314 bridal couples who came to
attend the Hundred City wedding had already changed their wedding attire and began to enter the
wedding venue. The wedding venue was divided into two parts. One was outside the church, an open
space that was flattened for a short period of time. At this moment, there were two parts of open space.
On the left was a small pavilion that was set up by romantic white gauze. On the right was an area
housing used armory and weapons. There were weapons and romance right next to each other,
forming an incomparably glaring contrast. At the center was a red carpet that was 1314 meters long.
This was left for the main bride of the day. On the other end of the carpet was a celestial staircase that
was 99 meters tall and made up of ninety-nine steps! At the very top of the staircase was a circular
platform with a diameter of a meter. White gauze curtains fluttered about, and on the platform ninety-
nine meters tall, white rose petals covered its surface… It was half-past eight in the morning. It was the
moment Paige, Bethany, and Serena arrived. Right then, they saw the red carpet in the center. On the
two roads on both sides, there were a total of 3,000 soldiers in military uniforms on the left, and one
could detect the formidable aura of battle from them. On the right, there were the 1314 bridal couples.
They entered the venue, and the footsteps on both sides were in tandem… Although she didn’t want to
think about it, at this moment, when Paige listened to the exciting music on the scene and looked at the
magnificent scenery that couldn’t be described with words, she was also deeply shocked and couldn’t
help but feel a little yearning in her heart. If only she could participate in it…
Yes, not only had Estella secretly entered Paige into the selection, but Paige had also secretly applied
for it. She had even personally called Aiden to ask about it, but all of these had been rejected. “Just
how blessed is that girl…” Paige muttered in her heart as she lifted her head and looked at the red
carpet in the venue… The amazing 99 meter platform…
“Bethany, Serena, look over there… Eh…” After looking around for a while, she wanted to look back
and say something to Bethany and Serena, but when she turned back, she found that Bethany and
Serena were no longer by her side. At that moment, she became anxious. Paige looked around, but
she couldn’t find them because there were large crowds everywhere. At this moment, a group of
beautiful women dressed in bridesmaid dresses and white suits suddenly squeezed their way to Paige
from the outside. The leader, a woman holding a white makeup case, grabbed Paige and said eagerly,
“Why are you still standing here? Hurry! Hurry up and come with me for make-up. The wedding is
about to begin. It’s very late. Hurry up, hurry up!” “No… Wait a minute, you’ve got the wrong person. I…
I… I’m not… I…” That strange woman pulled Paive towards the dressing room next to the wedding
venue. Paige immediately realized that the other party might have gotten the wrong person, so she
quickly explained. “Don’t chat here! Hurry up! The wedding is about to begin, hurry up!” The beautiful
makeup artist didn’t give Paige any chance to finish her words. She was then running faster. The
bridesmaids behind her also ran quickly, and Paige was pulled to a dressing room by these strange
women at top speed. Then she found that in that exquisite dressing room, a group of pretty women
were busy doing makeup for the bridesmaids… Paige felt that they might have mistaken her as a
member of the bridesmaid group at the Hundred Cities wedding. Looking at the makeup artists who
were busy doing makeup on her, she stopped explaining and decided to play along as a bridesmaid.
So, she closed her eyes and let those pretty women do her make-up. But what Paige didn’t know was
that in this dressing room, the women who were dolling her up were all the top makeup artists, closing
designers, and stylists from around the world!
The moment Paige closed her eyes, all the women in the dressing room, who were extremely busy,
paused mysteriously for a moment. Everyone nodded with a look of approval, and then looked at Paige
with envy. Then everyone began to work again. Yes, everything here was prepared for Paige alone.
Around eight world-class makeup artists did her makeup and then styled her hair. The makeup artist
who brought her in said loudly to all the bridesmaids, “Close your eyes, no one is allowed to open
them! Don’t make trouble! This is a grand wedding of the century!” Therefore, when those women
helped her change her clothes, Paige quickly peeked at the bridesmaids beside her. When she realized
that none of them had opened their eyes, she closed hers too. Time passed quickly. After an entire
hour, she had only just changed her clothes. Even the world’s top makeup artists were deeply shocked
when they saw Paige in her wedding dress and with, makeup on. She was so beautiful that no words
could describe her beauty. She had a perfect figure, fair skin, slender legs, perfect collarbones, a
beautiful face, and flowing long hair. When Paige stood up, there was only one phrase in everyone’s
heart in the dressing room, “Top-class beauty!” “Quick! All bridesmaids, keep your eyes closed.
Someone will lead you guys to the scene and then you may open them again…” The makeup artist in
the lead once again spoke harshly. Of course, this was also meant for Paige. As such, she
subconsciously nodded her head. After all, there were dozens of bridesmaids here. She couldn’t let
everyone be reprimanded because of her. Paige closed her eyes and was pulled out by two people
beside her. With her eyes closed, Paige was surrounded by hundreds of beautiful women in white
bridesmaid gowns. She slowly walked to the wedding venue and went to the place where the red
carpet began. When the group of beautiful women in white gowns walked in, the whole wedding venue
fell completely quiet. At this moment, all the cameras deliberately avoided Paige. Before Joseph
appeared, no one could take photos of Paige! Paige followed behind the bridesmaids nervously, not
daring to move. At this moment, she heard the emcee’s voice. “Please settle down, everyone. Let’s
welcome the bride of our Hundred Cities wedding! Today’s most beautiful bride is here!” As soon as the
emcee finished speaking, the audience burst into thunderous applause, which was extremely
enthusiastic. Naturally, it also reached Paige’s ears. She was still standing there with her eyes closed.
What she didn’t know was that at this moment, the dozens of bridesmaids who had surrounded her just
now had quietly retreated behind her. All the bridesmaids’ eyes were filled with blessings, and even
some bridesmaids’ eyes were teary. The day’s main bride might not even know that this grandiose
wedding was for her alone! At this moment, Bethany and Serena, who had also changed into exquisite
bridesmaid clothes and beautiful makeup, quietly came behind Paige. They stood on the two ends of
her ten-meter-long wedding gown. “Wow, the most beautiful bride, today’s hostess of the event, please
open your eyes…” In the quiet venue, the voice of the emcee boomed. When Paige heard the voice,
she guessed that the main bride was also in her bridesmaid group. Were her eyes closed too? Well, it
should be the surprise that the main groom had prepared for her. As a result, Paige spent a long time
imagining this in her mind. As a bridesmaid, she felt that as a bridesmaid, she should open her eyes
when the bride opened hers. So Paige slowly opened her eyes. But when she opened her eyes, she
found that there was no one in front of her. In front of her was the red carpet with red rose petals about
1314 meters long, laid out in the middle of the venue. “Let’s welcome the bride in…” At this moment,
before she could react, the emcee’s voice sounded again. At this time, everyone in the venue also
turned back and looked at Paige with blessings… “No, no, no… I’m not a bride, I’m not! I’m sorry, I’m
sorry, don’t look at me, don’t look at me…” When everyone in the room looked at Paige, she quickly
waved her hand and explained. But the moment she raised her hand, she finally realized that she was
not wearing a bridesmaid’s dress, but a beautiful and noble white wedding dress, which was inlaid with
countless golden threads… What?! After seeing the wedding dress she was in, Paige was completely
stunned. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m not the bride! I came to the wrong place…” Paige hurriedly explained
to the emcee who was looking at her. “Let’s welcome the bride in…” The emcee continued to smile and
shouted at her. “No, I’m not.” The next moment, she hurriedly turned around and wanted to escape. But
when she turned around, she found that behind her long wedding dress, stood Bethany, who had
disappeared earlier, and now was wearing an exquisite bridesmaid dress. Serena was there too, and
they were both teary-eyed. “Bethany, Serena, you… you… … … this… this…” Paige was completely
stunned and stood there, dazed. At this time, on the high platform behind the venue, there came an
extremely apologetic voice. “I’m sorry… Yesterday you told me that you wanted to register our
marriage, but I didn’t agree. All because I haven’t proposed to you yet, and I want to propose properly
to my favorite girl. Can I propose to you now? Paige, will you marry me?” Joseph’s words resounded
throughout the venue. Immediately, everyone stood up and looked at Paige with great anticipation. At
this moment, when Paige heard Joseph’s voice, she subconsciously turned around. She… she really
couldn’t believe that it was Joseph who was talking to her just now. But the moment she turned to look
at the high platform, she saw his familiar figure on the platform. Joseph’s face was too far away to be
seen clearly, but she was sure that it was Joseph! “How… how is that possible? Joseph?” At this
moment, Paige’s mind was trembling. Although she had just heard that the voice that resounded
throughout the entire place was Joseph, and she was extremely sure that only Joseph knew what had
happened by the river previously, she still couldn’t believe it at this moment… “Mom… quickly, quickly,
say yes to Dad! Mom, come over here. Dad and I are waiting for you on this high platform…” At this
time, a child’s voice, clear and bright, sounded happily in Paige’s ears. “It’s really Joseph…” When she
heard her daughter speak, Paige was finally certain that the man standing on the high platform was
Joseph. After realizing that the groom of the wedding was Joseph, Paige was completely stunned,
unable to move…
