Chapter 84:

Dolores Is she here to contest for the groom?” one guest murmured. “I heard she and Shaun used to be an item. Maybe you are right,” another whispered. “Will the wedding still happen today? Might the bride be switched to another woman?” speculated a third.

Tracy overheard the guests and felt a wave of embarrassment wash over her. She bit her lip and glanced at her parents offstage, who also appeared distressed. Shaun’s parents were clearly upset. His mother yelled, “Dolores, get out of here! Don’t create a scene.” As she spoke, she motioned for some people to intervene, but Dolores’s entourage stepped in. They formed a protective wall around her, effectively blocking any interference and clearing a path for her.

Ignoring Tracy and the rest, Dolores walked directly toward Shaun, extending her hand with a slight plea in her voice. “Shaun, I admit I was too headstrong and caused you much pain. But during my years abroad, I never stopped thinking about you. I’ve always hoped we could reconcile. Please don’t marry her. Let’s make amends, okay?”

Her plea hit Tracy like a bolt of lightning, leaving her teetering on the edge of a breakdown. Elyse quickly set down her violin and rushed to support Tracy.

Shaun remained silent, his attention fixed on Dolores, seemingly oblivious to Tracy’s distress. Tracy was visibly upset. As Elyse embraced her, she demanded with a stern expression, “What’s going on, Shaun? You’re about to marry Tracy. Didn’t you end things with your past love years ago?”

Dolores shot Elyse a fierce glare. “This is between us. You have no right to interfere.”

“Shut up! How dare you ruin my friend’s wedding!” Elyse shot back loudly, then turned her attention seriously to Shaun. “What are you going to do, Shaun? Are you thinking of calling off the wedding?”

Shaun remained silent, unable to provide an answer. Seeing his hesitation, Dolores felt vindicated. “Shaun, your indecision shows you haven’t forgotten me. Why won’t you admit it?”
