Chapter 187 - Crazy, Right?

The instrumental music begins to fill the air, and the little angel toddler girls start walking down the aisle with their rose petals bucket and throw it all along the aisle.

A bunch of white pigeons was released from its cage and fly beautifully across the hall, giving the audiences a magnificent performance. Just like a cliche fairy tales story. Raymond waits for Sarah at the altar while she was walked with her father before they finally facing each other, holding hands and listen to the Father giving a speech.

While he was in the position, he keeps glancing at the entrance door, hoping that 'someone' he waits will show up, but the more he waits, that 'someone' never came. He then averts his eyes to find his son and finally! He saw him.

The moment their eyes met, Alex smile at him. Like he congratulated him without saying a word. He looks so calm and 'accepting' everything that happens now. That makes Raymond a little bit sad. He thought Alex will be objecting to this marriage, but maybe he was wrong.

When he avert his eyes to Jamal, the man shakes his head. Mouthed him that Luna will not be coming. Again, he secretly bit his lips.

'This woman...'

"Do you, take Sarah Rochester as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?" The Father asked and Raymond turn his head to the Father, he returns back to reality.

"I-"

…

"I'm sorry.." Caitlin said when she takes a seat in front of the bench where's Lily and Alex sit. Her edge of dress hooked at the bench and there's a perverted, eyeing the woman's thigh and Lily slowly stand up and help to unhook the woman's dress.

Caitlin snapped her head when she feels a little movement from behind her and once she saw the girl, she smiles at her. "Oh..I'm sorry, your dress hooked at the bench." Lily whisperingly said, feeling guilty for being caught. Even though she sure enough that she made only a little move.

"That's okay, sweetheart. Thank you." Caitlin also replies with a low voice and caresses her cheek for a bit before Lily's eyes caught something on her wrist. She touches it and says, "Wow..what a unique bangle you have."

Chuckles, Caitlin touch Lily's wing shape of the earring. "You have a nice earring too."

Both of them smiling at each other. 'Of course, my Eli is unique.' Caitlin said inwardly.

'My new version of Kiera now more beautiful on me.' Lily thought and she went to sit back at the bench.

"Thank you, miss..uh.." Lily scrunched her eyebrow a bit. Think that she didn't ask her name before.

"Caitlin, and you, sweetheart?" Caitlin scrutinizes the girl which look too beautiful in her age and yeah, a quite thoughtful of her to help her from getting the attention of that pervert old guy.

"Lily." Lily smiles sweetly at her.

"Do you, take Sarah Rochester as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?" Both of them avert their eyes to the altar.

"I refuse." Raymond reply instantly and all the audience in the hall gasps. Shocked with his answer and the Father look confused.

"Raymond! What are you doing?" Sarah grits her teeth and tries to whisper at him even though everyone can hear it.

Did not give much attention to what that vile woman said, Raymond, turn his body around and facing the audiences. "Before I explain why I refused, I would like everyone to watch this first."

That's when Lily's eyes caught a small steel ball on the floor suddenly projecting a ray from it and she frowned looking at that device. Immediately she taps on her earring and Kiera went online. "Milady?"

"Scan that thing and find what the hell is that?" Just after she said that word, she looks at front of her when the woman in front of her also look at her with a bit confused.

'Did we said the same thing?' They both have the same thought and Lily was the first one who gives a wide smile before the woman in front of her giving the same reflect.

"Crazy, right?" Caitlin said before Lily answered with "Yeah."

Everyone's eyes stare at the big projection without a screen. The picture is clear and it was shot at a difficult angle, yet everyone can see the actor in that 'free video'.

'Ah! Ah! Ah! Deeper, Max! Ah!' Sarah's lusting voice fills up the hall and most of the moms inside the hall instantly cover their children's eyes.

"Guess what, everyone! Her dress is the same as what she wears right now. Fantastic, isn't it?"Raymond states and everyone looks at Sarah's dress. Yup! It was the same one! She just finished having sex with a guy named Max?! And now she shows up at the altar pretend as nothing happens?

"I don't think it's the only one time she did that," Raymond said again and Sarah pulls his hand.

"Dear..please..do not accuse me. That can be edited and-" She tried to explain and make her looked like she was a victim.

Smirking, he scoffed. "That was caught using 'Hawkeye', Sarah. How would you explain this then?"

A few other projections pop up and show every record from when she was in high school until she is now. 13 years of cheating and hooked up with various men really a shocking disclosure on her own wedding days.

A hundred of footage filled the air and Sarah's trembling in shame. She could hear her dignity was just cracked and blown up. All eyes are now fixed at her, obviously, criticize her and gossiping about her.

The media won't stop flashing their camera and her parents look so angry right now. There's no way she could explain all of this now. And, where the heck did this video coming from?! It's all real and she can't deny it.

"Ray-Raymond.." She uses her trick to tears up and hoping that Raymond will forgive her this time.

"Stop, Sarah! Don't give me any more bullshit." Raymond walk to the center of the hall and Barbara immediately runs to him, "Raymond…we can talk this over and stop that video, you only shaming your wife."

Raymond stops his pace and turns his body around to look at his mother. "What? Wife? Mother….she's not my wife. Who wants to marry a trash woman? In fact! I'm once married before you guys plotting to kill her!"

Click! Click! Click! Click!

A shutter sound makes Barbara gap her mouth widely. James already stands up and leaves the hall. He knew there's must be someone who told his son these things. Or did he regain back his memories?

"Ray-Raymond.."

"Stop this! Don't humiliate yourself more than you already are." Raymond yanks his hand and rush to go out of the hall.

When he passing by Brian, Brian took out his car keys and throw it to the man. "She's at the mountain."

Brian gives him a little clue and that's all that it takes for him to run outside and find Brian's car. Jamal also takes his leave. He knew this not gonna ending well, so Raymond need help right now.

"Mr. Brian.." He stops his pace and Brian bobbed his head. "Just go." Brian gives him permission and the man also went out of the hall, looking for Raymond's car.

He turns on his Bluetooth and dialing on Raymond's phone. "Mr. Ray, use I-95S route, I'll take the opposite as a diversion."

"Thanks, Jay and be careful." Raymond ended up the call and Jamal continue to take the other way and violate almost all of the traffics light.

He looks at the rearview mirror and saw a few police car chasing him and even two helicopters which he believe is the media reporting it live. Not long after, three black cars chasing him from behind.

"Uh-oh…they're persistent." Jamal had to take the risk and drive as far as he can and avoid the heavy traffic road in the city.

The grandiose wedding of the year turns out as the worst 'almost-wed' of the year.

The moment Raymond walk out of the hall, the projector stopped showing the video and all of the small steel balls roll back to that arrogant boy and it was witnessed by Lily when everyone was busy gossiping and criticize the Wayne family.

Lily smirk, 'You're an interesting boy'. She stomps on one steel ball which rolls through her bench row and picks it up before she put it inside her pocket.
