The expression on Emmy's face didn't change a bit. The sudden cheerful environment suddenly turned sullen. Gabriella squatted beside the fallen Rasber and had her hand taking his pulse while the others were standing flabbergasted except Emmy.
Maybe it was only Alex who felt that Gabriella was not actually inculpating Emmy but instead was admiring her skills. He confusingly looked at Emmy but could not read her expression. Her grave expression was as if she punished Rasber by poisoning him and almost all the spectators had arrived at the same conclusion also.
When the respectable elders of the dark clan arrived, even they were taken back by Emmy's frosty face. Elder Miandrake quickly lifted his robes and dashed towards the patient.
"The physician heart .." scoffed elder Rotrigues.
Miandrake asked Gabriella to move aside and checked the condition of the patient. The frowning guise on the next seconds changed into amazement.
" What medications did he eat? Gabriella, you are really amazing. Haha… see Rotrigues, haven't I told you, having one best disciple is better than a hundred ones. Look at my only disciple, she successfully found out the antidote of the mysterious Slavepal drug. Isn't she fabulous?"
This time not only Elder Rotrigues was shocked, but all the others who were watching the show were also stupefied. The whole audience had thought the groom was completing tasks to fetch the bride but somehow it turned out to be that the groom was already poisoned and now he was going through a detoxification.
Elder Lathodore looked at Gabriella and soon realised that she was not the one who had given him the antidote. Also, he was surprised to understand that she didn't even know about the antidote till Rasber had fainted. Judging the expressions on these youngsters, the person who was standing there confidently was Emmy. So, it has to be this girl, but why was he not regaining his consciousness?
Elder Lathodore walked up to Emmy and patiently asked, " Don't you think that the groom must have woken up by now? We old men have to rest early, please wake him up now."
Emmy was a bit surprised that elder Lathodore could actually recognise that it was she who had made Rasber detoxify the residual drug substance from his body. After nodding to Elder Lathodre, she walked towards the squatting Gabriella and Elder Miandrake.
"Please move aside."
The anxious Gabriella quickly moved aside whereas Miandrake stood close by to see how Emmy would wake up a patient who was deeply immersed in the detoxification process of his body.
Crashing the physician's heart, Emmy's foot landed heavily over Rasber's chest. The unconscious man suddenly opened his eyes and turned sideways to vomit out a black coloured mucky substance. In the history of his medicinal studies, Elder Miandrake would never have seen someone waking up a patient like this. He looked at Gabriella who had closed her eyes as she had expected this outcome. Of course, no wife would want to see her husband being kicked pitifully.
However, the kick was the required approach and the outcome was truly a success. The groom who was pale and unconscious, now on his face, the pink colour, as well as energy, were restored.
" Now listen to my demand, never ever make her cry once. I want you to accept her all wishes and make them true. Whatever she demands, it must be done. You break these conditions, I can make you live a life where you yourself will want to die but would be unable to do so."
Rasber looked at Emmy wondering what had happened to him, the last thing he remembered was, he puking even his intestine juices out. Anyway, he nodded his head and raised his hands toward his beloved woman who was standing behind Emmy.
Emmy moved aside to let the couple make way to the altar to finish their marriage ceremony but she was pulled into a warm embrace quickly.
" I wish us to be the ones standing there and exchanging the vows."
Emmy faced Alex who was jealous of the newly married couple. She wanted to laugh at this guy, who once had the chance wanted to run away and then when he got ready, the bride went missing. Finally, God gave him another chance but the situation was not yet correct.
" Your wish will become true soon as we perish our enemies together."
When the couple was thinking about perishing their enemies, they didn't know that their real enemy had already made plans to strike first.
After Elder Lathodore pronounced Rasber and Gabriella, husband and wife, the whole audience threw rose petals at the married couple as their blessings. Rasber picked up his wife and walked towards the centre where there was a small circular stage. He placed Gabriella carefully on the platform and winked at Alex.
Alex who was still holding Emmy in his embrace quickly left her and took something from his pocket to throw it to Rasber who skillfully caught the item in his hands.
Emmy raised her eyebrows at Alex who smiled back at her playfully, " Someone said that they wanted the groom to be extra special in order to marry her precious sister. Now watch our boy, how he sweeps his lady off her feet !"
On the dice, Rasber knelt down on his one knee, opening the small box, he presented a ruby ring, small but extra shiny. He wanted to surprise his little bride, although he clearly knew that he didn't fall in love because of genuine feelings first but slowly he understood that now he wanted this little but vicious woman to be at his side forever in his life.
" I had despised all womankind but there are only two women in this world who could make me kneel. When you showed me your prowess and locked me at your home, I didn't know that my heart had already made you it's master. Now there is no place I can be where you are not present. Can you give this poor slave a chance to love you for eternity?"
Gabriella had tears in her eyes now and she too knelt in front of him, to kiss him hard on his lips. They kissed each other without minding the presence of the whole guests and of course, none of those didn't disturb this couple rather all were happy for them.
" Hey, she isn't following the script."
Juliet complained fervently looking at the passionate couple. Mike already had once forgiven his woman for gawking at the groom and now she was watching the intimate scene of another couple in front of him. This woman…
" What script? I had to knock his head to teach him some mushy words. Now you close your eyes or else don't even think of walking for the next two days."
Juliet felt that her hubby was becoming more jealous nowadays. Although they are always together due to the recent turn of events, they hadn't any private intimate time with each other.
" Hmm, you are a dog that barks and does not bite. If you dare, prove your words."
Mike had thought of not eating his wife every day until their marriage but as a man how could he handle such a provocation from his own wife. Each day at night, he had to take cold showers to keep his words but today her comment had broken his last ounce of patience.
" Very well."
Suddenly Mike walked away from Juliet, making her anxious. She thought of just poking him as he always runs off to take a shower rather than taking things on to the next level and she knew it was for her sake. So she deliberately provoked him this time to check his patience but who knew this guy would get angry instead of taking actions.
While Juliet was thinking about how to calm her husband down, Mike straightly went to Alex and secretly told him a few things.
" You go and enjoy. I will manage everything here, come back with good news brother.."
Alex patted his brother's shoulders and teased him as his brother was going to be a man today. Emmy who stood beside them rolled her eyes at these two brothers and silently prayed for her friend.
After informing his brother, Mike quietly returned and carried Juliet in a princess style outside. Juliet wanted to scream but Mike had blocked her mouth with his lips.
" Let me show you the outcome of provoking a lion tonight. What did you say previously, If you dare, prove your words, let me prove it for the next few days? Right, don't fret, I already have informed brother and Emmy about our absence. "
And the couple vanished into the darkness of the night….
Meanwhile, the new married ones were showered by various gifts and the couple individually thanked each one of them. Finally, they sat down at the table where Alex and Emmy were seated.
" Thank you for today. I admit that you have done this for your sister but really I am thankful to you. Gabriella had told me about me being poisoned and the residual substance which was clogging inside my body. It gave the enemies a chance to use me again as their puppet but you freed me. I pledge my life to you on that account. "
Emmy sneered but then shook her head, " No need any pledge nor promises, just keep her happy and the detoxification of your body is what I owe you. Take it as my gratitude."
" You owe me? What do you mean by gratitude?"
Emmy smiled and said nothing more but her eyes had the answer to Rasber's question,
" Once you saved a person and the person owed you this one."
