Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO

Chapter 194 - 194: Boyfriend Forever

The reception hall glowed like a fairy tale. Strings of golden lights crisscrossed the ceiling, and every table was adorned with roses and crystal vases.

A soft melody floated through the air as guests dined and laughed, the room brimming with warmth.

The event planning company Ruby had poured her heart into — Ever After Events — had planned the entire wedding. And as she looked around, Ruby realized her dream had come full circle. She wasn't just living her dream. She was living her love.

Rayna clinked her glass, her voice playful. "To Ruby and Stefan — proof that true love can survive fire, storms, and even their own stubbornness."

The crowd laughed, raising their glasses in cheer.

Ethan added with a grin, "And here's to Stefan finally admitting he's human, because Ruby's the only one who makes him that way."

Even Stefan laughed, though his gaze never left Ruby, who blushed as she shook her head at the teasing.

Later, when they had their first dance, Stefan held Ruby close, their foreheads touching as they swayed to the music. The world around them blurred — all that remained was their heartbeat, their breath, their love.

"I love you, Mrs. Winters," Stefan whispered, his voice low and reverent.

Ruby smiled, tears glistening in her eyes. "And I love you, Mr. Winters. Always."

The music swelled, and in that moment, surrounded by laughter, love, and light, Stefan and Ruby knew that though life had tested them, it had also blessed them with something few ever found — a love that would last forever.

The night was winding down, the reception hall glowing with soft golden light. Guests were still laughing, glasses clinking as music played gently in the background. But Stefan had only one thought in his mind.
