Chapter 224

The whole Wilson Palace was decorated with red roses and white tulips, adding the air of harmony to the magnificent building. The stage was arranged in the massive garden for our wedding ceremony.

The warmth of love behind her apparently sharp words healed the lacerations deep in my soul. Mrs. Wilson treated me like a daughter I always Wanted. She didn’t let me take any responsibility and booked spa treatments for me; her every considerate gesture touched my heart. Now I realized how Bright was a true gentleman. He was raised by an ideal woman who taught him to respect others.

Deep in my thoughts, I was staring at my reflection in the mirror mindlessly when my little angels‘ gleeful voices brought me back to reality. They ran towards me.

“Mommy, you are looking so pretty.”

Little Jane was dressed up in a pink flared princess frock with all the glitters, #bbons, and frills. She was holding a beautiful white basket with a red ribbon tied as a bow tie and rose petals in it. I poked her cheek playfully.

“So, my flower girl is all set.”

“I am ready too, mommy!” My prince, Zoe, was all suited up in his black and white three–piece suit with two black boxes. I caressed his head softly.
