Chapter 252

Perhaps it was because, when Asher married Daphne, the spark they once shared had already faded.

He chose a woman he found easy to manage, someone who would never confront him or make him feel uncertain.

She respected him, but the passion that had once driven their relationship had long since been worn away.

The procession of cars departed the Kensington family's estate, carrying the newlyweds and their guests to the reception.

Asher, an outsider now, was left behind. He glanced at the gift in his hand, tossed it into his car, and drove away from the Kensington family's estate.

At the wedding venue, relatives and friends from the Kensington and Hawthorne families were waiting.

Elara's friends were already chatting in one corner, buzzing with excitement.

When the car pulled up, Lysander stepped out first, then reached back to carefully carry Elara inside.

The ceremony was set to begin later, so Elara was escorted to a private room to rest and prepare.

Lysander leaned in slightly, studying her face. "Are you tired?"

Abit," Elara admitted, letting out a soft laugh. "I barely slept last night, but... I'm really happy."

At those words, Lysander's expression softened into a warm smile. He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. "You've done so much today. Thank you." "You two already getting affectionate?" Natalie entered the room and teased them with a grin.

"Hello, Natalie," Lysander said warmly, his mood visibly lifted by the day's events.

Elara urged him, "Go on. You've got plenty to do."

Lysander walked out the door.

Natalie's gaze followed him for a moment before she turned back to Elara with a playful smirk. "Congratulations."

Elara replied, "Thank you, Natalie."

Natalie looked Elara up and down approvingly. "You know, after my divorce from Curtis, I never thought I'd look at marriage positively again."

She continued, "But seeing you and Lysander, I can't help but feel like you two might have that forever kind of love."

Maybe it was because Lysander's care for Elara was so evident, filling the room with a warmth that even a bystander like Natalie could feel.

Elara chuckled. "Not complaining about him anymore?"
