Chapter 743: WEDDING PARTY

“Yen!” Luna came running and hugged Cayenne tightly. “You are finally married! I am so happy for you. I can marry Ali now that you are done.”

“You could have married him before me, you know.”

“I wanted to see you get married first.”

“In the first place, I married Stefan a long time ago.”

“That didn’t count. Hmph! It was a secret marriage. I don’t agree with that. Well, it doesn’t matter now. Ahhh! I am just so happy for you. Let me see your ring.”

Cayenne lifted her finger and showed the dazzling ring on her finger which could blind someone. She didn’t really want to know the price of her wedding ring but based on Luna’s expression, her hunch earlier was right.

“Don’t say anything about the price. I don’t want to think of anything related to his expenses. And don’t even think you paid something for this. I know my husband very well.”

.....

Luna scratched the back of her head awkwardly. She was meant to shoulder the expenses of wedding cards in her name only since she didn’t really pay for them. But surely, Cayenne won’t believe her.

“Ah! Here’s our gift for you.” Luna said and Ali handed Cayenne a box which already gave her an idea of what could be inside it. Someone will be very happy about it. She really wanted to pinch her face again for the nth time just to tell herself she wasn’t dreaming. “We won’t hog your time to ourselves. I will talk to you again later.” Luna kissed her cheeks and grinned at Stefan before leaving. That grin alone told Cayenne that she guessed something right.

“You made the right choice,” Stefan whispered as he intertwined their fingers together. “Don’t think about the expenses.”

Cayenne really wanted to whack him in the face.

Other guests came over to say their congratulatory messages as well as hand their gifts to the newly-wed couple. Cayenne didn’t have to guess what was inside those gift boxes and gift bags anymore. The only unexpected gift they received was one from Elena and Tristan. It was a CD.

Seeing the gift, she immediately pulled Elena to the side. “This is not what I think it is, right?”

“Lady boss, what were you thinking? I wouldn’t know what you mean.”

“You little...since when did you learn this kind of thing?”

“What thing?” Elena teased making Cayenne pinch her face. “Aw. Aw. Ouchie. Lady boss, you should not turn to violence if you are teased a little. This CD is not like what you think it is. This CD is innocent.”

“Hmph! I won’t believe you.”

“I promise. I will never allow Tristan to gift you something like what you think it was.”

“What exactly are you thinking?” Stefan asked, but Cayenne stepped on his foot under the table. “I won’t ask anymore.”

While they chatted and exchanged sharp glares and flirtatious smiles, the emcee finally took over to start the main event. It started with a message from Cayenne and Stefan for all the guests and for the people who made this wedding possible. It was followed by their first dance, accompanied by the song I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You duet version by Tina Arena and Marc Anthony.

As they did so, the people who were able to watch the live coverage of the wedding were curious about Cayenne’s wedding gown and wedding ring. Many of them searched for it online but they were not able to find any information about it.

Of course, they would not. These were designed by Stefan personally for his wife.

However, there were some people who worked for GIA and learned about this grand wedding. When they checked some recordings of the wedding, they focused their attention on the wedding ring that Stefan gave to his wife. When their estimation came out, this shocked the people as if they just saw an alien.

The ring was said to be made of Leside La Rona and the cost was estimated to be a sparkling $50 Million. Some people already guessed that Cayenne’s wedding will be listed as the grandest wedding of the century. It was more expensive than those weddings with some royalties.

At the same time, Cayenne still had no idea about this.

After their dance, the party continued and Seiji took this opportunity to give Cayenne and Stefan a toast. He was genuinely happy for them.

“I didn’t expect I will receive an invitation.”

“I honestly didn’t want to,” Stefan responded coldly which stunned Seiji for a few seconds. He didn’t think he’d still be treated as his rival until this moment. “Your face really annoys me whenever I think about what happened -”

“Stop,” Cayenne stated and linked her arms with Stefan. “Nothing happened, right? I was fine when you found me. Don’t think about it anymore.”

“Yen is right. Besides, I gave you the best gift already.”

“Don’t forget that those were mine, to begin with.” Stefan retorted but Cayenne suddenly turned quiet. When they both turned to her, she looked like a fierce tigress who was ready to pounce on them and devour them. “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing. I was just reminded of the divorce and the cause of it.”

“Congrats to both of you. Here’s my gift. I’m out of here.” Seiji handed the gift and was about to leave when Cayenne held the hem of his suit. “Yen, I apologized for it already.”

“Who said I have something against you? I just want to talk.”

The party lasted until evening with games and other entertainments that kept the guests from leaving. There were so many foods and beverages to enjoy; by the way, half of the prepared menu was Cayenne’s favorite. The place felt enchanting to her with the blending of golden lights and those beautiful tulip flowers. She even thought of bringing some of them at home but Stefan told her that he already prepared some of the potted tulips for her at home. She just didn’t have any idea that the home she’ll be returning to will be different from now on.

When the time finally arrived for Cayenne to throw her bouquet, her bride’s maids were excited to get it. Luna was even more eager than everyone else since she was planning to get married as well. Kath was also there to grab this chance but Clarisse was a little bit shy to join in on this fun. She was still young compared to everyone else and she never talked to Luiz about getting married and whatnot. Jackie was also waiting for the bouquet to come her way. However, the last person they expected to get it was the one who received it.

Jade was happily eating her mango graham float when the bouquet of tulips fell on her lap. She even got a smudge of cream on her face when everyone turned to look at her. She looked at their surprised expression and back to the bouquet she was holding. When the realization hit on her, she frowned deeply and looked at her dad.

“Where’s the wedding band?” She asked and Stefan raised it since he hadn’t gotten the chance to throw it in the air. “Give it to me, uncle.” She said as she jumped out of her chair. “There’s no way I’d let you give it away and have someone older than me get that. No, I’m not marrying an old man.”

Interested in what she planned, Stefan gave Jade the wedding band and watched her walk to another table. When they saw who she approached, all their eyes shifted to Travis who was watching his daughter from the get-go. They really wanted to laugh at his grim expression.

“Ethan put this on me. I will never let any of these old people marry me. No way!”

Ignoring the fire-spitting glares coming from Travis, Ethan indulged Jade and put on the wedding band for her.

“My. My. Don’t worry, Ethan still has a long way to go.” Stefan told Travis while patting his shoulder.

“Laugh all you want. I will be saying those words to you in the future.”

While they had fun, they didn’t notice that Monet disappeared from the party already. It was not until a certain Mr. Aizenberg looked for her that they realized she was gone.
