Chapter 1791
Every intruder was dragged away, clearing the venue off of disturbances. With that, the wedding ceremony resumed.
Charmine, dressed in her wedding gown, stood opposite Anthony regally, while Anthony cast her a gentle, sincere gaze.
Their eyes were filled with adoration and love for one another.
"Mr. Anthony Bailey," began the pastor, "will you take Charmine Jordan as your rightful wife? In good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love and to honor her all days of your life, until death do you apart?"
Anthony looked at Charmine lovingly, his voice not faltering as he declared, "I do."
The pastor then looked at Charmine. "Ms. Charmine Jordan, will you take Anthony Bailey as your rightful husband? In good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love and honor him all days of your life, until death do you apart?"
Charmine looked at Anthony, who stood in front of her.
She had not spoken once today, and all the while, Anthony had fiercely defended her and spoke on her behalf.
Anthony deserved the rest of her life.
Her beautiful lips spread into a smile. "I do."
The pastor then formally announced, "Now, I pronounce Anthony Bailey and Charmine Jordan, husband and wife. Please proceed to exchange your rings.” 1
The assistant instantly walked toward them with the rings.
All of a sudden-
Before the assistant arrived, the huge LED screen that displayed romantic photos of the bride and groom flickered.
The image on the screen instantly changed into Charmine, seemingly laying in the hospital bed, experiencing a miscarriage and giving birth to a dead fetus.
The quiet audience instantly fell into utter chaos.
The person in charge quickly turned the LED off, but what was displayed on the screen lingered in everyone's head.
Although nobody stood up, a large group of people, especially relatives who did not like Charmine, started exchanging words.
"It seems that Charmine lost her chastity! She had another man's baby and even had a miscarriage!" "She looked young in that thing, too!" "It seems that Julian left her because she cheated on him!" "No wonder she could accept Anthony, and even Chris and Annabel!" "This is her true nature, after all!" "How could she be so shameless? I wonder how many men she had slept with!" "Why did the baby die? Perhaps she ended the child's life herself? How irresponsible!" "All that, and President Bailey likes her so much and spoke up for her! Who would've thought that she's this kind of woman?" "The Bailey family has always been good and clean for generations. It's terrible to have an in-law like her!"
This specific group ridiculed and mocked Charmine, obviously so.
Charmine stood still, petrified in shock. Her face was pale, and her hands clenched.
This had happened five years ago. She had almost forgotten, yet someone put it up there. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Her son, her child, was kicked while he was still in her womb. Julian had cruelly ended his life.
The scar she had buried for five years had been ripped open.
She could not even breathe smoothly.
Anthony saw the clip and his pupils dilated, too deep in shock.
Even he did not know about this.
How could Charmine have gone through so much on her own?
Furthermore...
The dead baby on the screen was stuck in his brain, and he just could not shake it off.
That small face was almost identical to Chris when he picked him up.
When he first met Chris, he looked just like this, and he was so feeble, too.
Could it be...? 3
Anthony had a complex look in his eyes, and he seemed to have realized something.
