Chapter 6

Amidst the silence, Belle gritted her teeth and was about to answer on behalf of Adam. “He…”

“I do.”

Belle’s words were cut off as an arrogant voice interrupted her.

Belle turned around abruptly and then she saw a figure approaching under the sun.

The light was a little dazzling, so Belle couldn’t make out the person’s face at first. She only felt as if the entire world was bathed in light for a moment.

After the initial blinding glare subsided, she saw the man’s face.

There was a slight commotion in the crowd.

As Adam walked into the church, the seated guests all caught sight of the scar that cut across half of his face.

It was probably because Adam’s face was truly a little terrifying, Belle was also startled when she first saw him, but she quickly regained her composure. After all, she had known that Adam’s face was burned. She had been mentally prepared beforehand.

After a moment of initial shock, Belle looked at Adam almost gratefully.

At least she didn’t have to stand alone in embarrassment anymore.

Adam walked towards Belle with an indifferent look on his face. As he walked past those who met his gaze, they all lowered their heads–either out of fear or respect.

Finally Adam arrived by Belle’s side.

He leaned closer to Belle on purpose. “Surprised to see me?”

Adam knew how terrifying his face was, and he had imagined how terrified Belle would be.

Belle was momentarily stunned by the up–close view of the gruesome scars, but she took a deep breath and made an effort to maintain eye contact with Adam.

Her voice was soft and gentle. “I’m pleasantly surprised that you could make it.”

She didn’t tremble, jump away, or scream.

Adam cocked his brows. He slightly taken aback by Belle’s reaction.

He scrutinized Belle, trying to gauge whether she was really surprised.

But he saw she was grateful to him.

This stunned Adam.

“What is she thinking? I arrived late to the wedding and deliberately scared her, but she’s grateful to me?” he wondered.
