"Yes, I will." Evelyn smiled sweetly and took the bouquet from Sheffield.
By then, the procedures on the second floor were all done. Sheffield put on the high heels for Evelyn, and carried her princess style in his arms. He cradled her softly and walked downstairs, a big crowd following behind them.
The elders patiently waited for them downstairs. Carlos and Debbie had prepared the red envelopes for the new couple, and Miranda was sitting next to them.
Sheffield gently put Evelyn down in front of Carlos and Debbie. He thoughtfully straightened Evelyn's wedding dress before turning to the elders.
With the guidance of the emcee, Sheffield served Carlos and Debbie tea and said respectfully, "Dad, Mom."
Debbie took a sip of the tea and gave him a thick red envelope with a smile.
Carlos also drank the tea and gave Sheffield the red envelope. "Now that I'm your father, you better stick to my side and fight my enemies with me," he told Sheffield.
"Of course, Dad," said Sheffield cheerfully.
Carlos eyed Joshua, who was standing close behind Sheffield, and asked mischievously, "Tell me, Son, who is more important to you—your dad or your best friend?"
"My dad, of course," Sheffield answered without any hesitation.
Carlos smirked at Joshua's shocked reaction and nodded in satisfaction.
Joshua stared at Sheffield in disbelief. 'Does our friendship mean nothing to this asshole? Will he even help me get Terilynn after this or is he going to be Carlos' faithful sidekick?' He felt like his friend had completely abandoned him.
After the ceremony in the Huo family manor, Sheffield drove Evelyn to the Tang family house.
On the way, he told Evelyn that she only had to change the way she addressed Peterson, and asked her to ignore the rest of the family. When they reached the Tang family residence, they walked into the living room where Ingrid's memorial tablet was placed on the table. After the bride and groom bowed to her memorial tablet, they moved on to the wedding venue.
The wedding was held outdoors in the suburbs, by the sea.
The wedding planner used white and blue to decorate the venue to match the color of the sea.
White irises, which stood for loyalty and tenacity, were the main flowers, while blue and champagne roses were the foil.
The v
off easy!" That day, Sheffield had promised them that he would treasure Evelyn, and her godfathers were satisfied by his sincere words.
"I know, Dad."
"Although you and Sheffield won't be living with the other Tangs, you will have to socialize with them from time to time. But remember, the whole lot of them are poisonous. If anyone dares offend you, fight back. Bear in mind, I'm your rock. I'll back you up no matter what."
Evelyn's eyes became blurry; tears threatened to fall. She was going to be someone's wife, about to live with another man and become a member of another family. Carlos was so worried that he had been reminding her of a lot of things since the previous night.
"Don't worry, Dad. If Sheffield lets the Tang family bully me, I won't forgive him." Though her father was the one who had always supported her, it was Sheffield's job now to take care of her. If she couldn't rely on him, then why was she even marrying the man?
"Fine," Carlos said.
The emcee announced, "Now, please welcome the bride and her father."
As the soft music began, they stopped talking and walked towards the altar slowly.
Evelyn's every step exuded breathtaking elegance and nobility. Not many people could imitate that kind of naturally strong aura.
The women in the crowd were envious of her fancy attire and the dreamy wedding.
The ceremony went smoothly. Evelyn would never in her life forget the romantic confession by Sheffield, and the moment when Carlos, very reluctantly, gave her hand away to Sheffield.
