"Head Allen, I'd appreciate your help in the future work!" Rocky bowed slightly. He thought highly of Allen, recognizing his strength and humility.
"I haven't seen Sabina these days. Do you know where she is?" Allen whispered.
"Actually, I don't know. Maybe she's already gone where she needed to go." Rocky reflected for a bit. It was true that he hadn't seen her in several days.
"Really? Why didn't she tell me before she left? This girl..." Allen trailed off with a sigh.
As there was nothing else to do, Rocky nodded a goodbye to Allen and then walked out of the hall.
But soon, his walk was interrupted by another man. "Hey!"
Rocky turned to face the man who had called out to him.
"Deputy Head Sheehan, can I help you?" Rocky squinted at him.
"Don't play dumb with me. Tell me the truth. Do you have the Sea Blue Magic Jade?" asked Sheehan pointedly, a tinge of jealousy coloring his voice.
"Whether it is or is not, does it matter?" responded Rocky with a twinkle in his eye.
"The fact that you are marrying the daughter of the Commander in Chief doesn't mean you can act conceited. Let's see if you will still have the chance once I tell people that you own the Sea Blue Magic Jade." Sheehan smiled menacingly.
"Go ahead, Deputy Head Sheehan," Rocky replied with a smile. Then, he abruptly turned around and started walking away.
"You brat, how dare you be so arrogant! You'll hand over the Sea Blue Magic Jade one way or another..." Sheehan retorted in a huff.
As if no time had passed at all, the day of the wedding came.
Early that morning, the whole headquarters was in shambles. Everyone was running around, trying to get the wedding in order. As throngs of people streamed in and out, it seemed as lively as though they were in battle.
Meanwhile, half of the headquarters was prepared, as Lance had a thousand tables set up for the banquet. Strolling down the wedding hall, inspecting the preparations, Lance donned an armor of gold, dragon bones, and silk. It was bestowed upon him by the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire himself, which made the armor so special that it was only brought out on important occasions.
Guests soon began to trickle in. Aside fr
portant moment in his life. This marriage was by no means simple. It involved a lot of politics. It was also a stepping stone for him to go back to the Imperial City. But no matter what, this was not a joke. Isis had sacrificed her life's happiness to fulfill his wishes. Therefore, he was not going to take this lightly.
As the crowd continued to clamor, Isis emerged from the sedan chair with the help of the bridesmaid.
Just then, she suddenly felt the red veil before her eyes flutter, as though someone was pressed close to her. Then, out of nowhere, a strong figure picked her up. As her feet swung in the air, she felt confusion.
"Don't worry, it's me." The voice of the figure who held her reassured her.
"What are you doing?" Isis asked with a tinge of anger tainting her tone.
The crowd went wild. The person who held Isis was no other than Rocky.
Everyone was shocked at his unexpected act.
"Groom, this is not the way you take the bride," the bridesmaid cried anxiously.
"I want my bride to have an unforgettable wedding." Rocky let out a defiant howl of a laugh. Then, under the gaze of the public, he proceeded to march into the wedding hall.
Hearing Rocky's words, Isis suddenly felt her heart beating fast and her cheeks burning. At that moment, she felt that she was truly Rocky's bride.
As Rocky entered the wedding hall with Isis in his arms, the guests in the hall were also taken aback. They stared at the new couple, dumbfounded.
