Veild Bride : Love From An Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Chapter 1 A romantic wedding was taking place in a holy, revered cathedral. The bride was Violet Yeager. The expression hidden under the veil was a face of calm. A faint smile played on her lips. Her dark eyes sparkled, as though she was hiding a joke. The show was about to start, The priest read out the wedding vows which got lost in her ears. She did not pay him any serious attention and it seems that she could barely understand what his words meant. In her sight, through her veil, was a tall and dashing young man dressed in a full suit. He was the bridegroom. The man’s eyes were as deep as the Milky Way. Not a sliver of expression could be deciphered from them. He was looking at her as well. The priest’s solemn voice traveled into her cars. “Jack Yancey, do you take this woman before you as your lawfully wedded wife? “For better, for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until you are parted by death? “Do you?” Violet, in her high-end, tailor-made wedding gown, gazed at the man with a faint smile on her face. The man did not even think. “I do.” The two words that left his thin lips quietly were full of reluctance. At that moment, thunderous applause broke out from the audience. Every guest beamed at them, full of congratulatory joy. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Violet could not help but smirk under the thin veil. She sighed inwardly. The man who controlled the heartbeat of their empire’s economy had compromised? He could not even be the master of his own wedding. It was laughable.

When the fervent applause had died down, the priest’s voice rang once more in her eyes. “Beryl Yeager, do you take this man before you as your lawfully wedded husband? “To stay with him, come what may until you are parted by death? “Please answer earnestly before Go d. Do you?” Violet looked at the silver microphone the priest was handing over. She took it casually. Smiling, she opened her mouth and spoke nonchalantly, “I…don’t!” She sounded quite dissatisfied as though there was a complaint to be made. The world was plunged into silence! She smiled as she watched the shocked faces of everyone in the guest seats from the corner of her eyes. Holding the microphone with one hand, she yanked off her wedding veil with the other. She started to speak to everyone. “Because I’m not Beryl Yeager! I’m here as a substitute for the bride today! I was forced to!” There was an uproar. Everyone began looking around, as though they were looking for something amongst themselves. Violet could see Theo Henry Yeager, who was standing next to the alter. His expression had changed tremendously; he was extremely agitated and worked up. She spoke, “However, in me flows the same filthy blood as Beryl Yeager!” She looked calm and steady as she continued on. “My mother is Theo’s first wife, Xayah Gordon. “He kicked her out from the Yeager family when she had just conceived me! “His mistress, Yvette West, was pregnant even before then! She was Beryl’s mother! “Beryl is older than I am, so this means Theo cheated on his wife! Not only that, he abandoned her and his daughter!” Her words hurtled towards the guests like bombshells. 2/3 11:49 Chapter 1

“I, Violet Yeager, have never taken a single cent from the Yeager family! Don’t even talk about child support!” Every word she spoke was forceful. “Beryl is dead, so they captured me to use me as a substitute bride. Tell me, who else but Theo Henry Yeager would be capable of doing something like that?!” She smiled, standing in her wedding dress as she exposed each scandal. She spoke as though she had the script memorized. It was obvious that she had come prepared. She continued, “I met Theo for the first time yesterday! The Yeager Group is now in peril!” Gasps erupted from everyone the moment those words left her mouth. The Yeager Group was in peril? Was he trying to sell his daughter to save his company? All the guests looked at Theo. They needed to confirm the truth in the bride’s claims! The panic on Theo’s face told them everything they wanted to know. “What I said is completely true! Everyone, believe me!” Violet raised her voice. She then continued to expose him, through the flurry of discussion: “This despicable man kidnapped my mother, the person I depend on, to threaten me! “That’s why I stand here today, in this wedding dress, to expose and humiliate him! “I’m very sorry, but I, Violet Yeager, will never be controlled by anyone, ever, in my life! “My destiny is in my hands, and my hands only! You want me to say ‘I do’? Impossible!” Every word was spoken in a steady, even manner. However, there was a sliver of fury in them. The mood of the thousands of guests in and around the cathedral had changed greatly within just a few moments. Some of them looked at Theo; others looked at her, who was still standing on the altar. She felt really good after saying everything she had to say. She had to escape quickly! Pushing the microphone into the hands of the flabbergasted priest, she smiled apologetically and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to disrupt the occasion. Y’all can continue now…” 99

Having said that, she yanked her wedding veil off light-heartedly. Her silky hair cascaded; the ends of her hair locks almost hit the bridegroom’s cold but handsome face. Before she left, she even gave the stone-faced bridegroom a cheeky glance, and joked, “I return your freedom to you, President Yancey! You don’t have to thank me!”
