Chapter 11: 11 11: The wedding

The wedding day.

People started coming and fill the chairs while soft music was playing in the background, the rustic on the aisle and chairs is making the church so beautiful while the flowers scents mixed up in the air.

Standing in the altar was Ken in his black suit and beside him was Evan and Glen while Matthew keeps running around taking pictures of everyone.

In the crowd, a proud mother looked around, Bea Chu was smiling from ear to ear while her son's expression differs from her.

Meanwhile, outside of the church, a lot of paparazzi are trying to get inside but the security was too tight.

When the priest stood behind the table, the coordinator signalled the violinist to starts.

A piece of soft and slow music started, and the door opens, One by one, bridesmaids march down.

Everyone looked beautiful in their dresses when the bride walked, everyone got up and turned to her direction.

She's wearing a white ball gown wedding dress with appliques and crystal brooch, while she wrapped a hand around her father's arm, looking so proud.

When Ken took her hand from her father, her heart jolted, (Finally) she thought.

Then they stood in front of the priest, Anna sighs a relief after knowing that it was a real priest.

The ceremony started, and everyone eyes were focused on the couple.

Meanwhile, outside the church, two women are fighting. It was Peyton and Daniella.

They are arguing on how to interrupt the wedding.

"I told you, you should have stopped it from the beginning" Peyton complained to Daniella.

"Hey, I have a five-year-old daughter who is dying to be a flower girl, if we interrupt it before the march that kid will throw tantrums until one of my friends get married and take her as a flower girl" Daniella glared at Peyton.

In the other side, Peyton understands her, Alexandria has been spoiled by her father and uncles even Selena.

"So what is your plan? Because soon those two will say I do" Peyton replied. Daniella grinned and took round metal from her bag that looked like a grenade. Seeing that, Peyton poker her face.

"Are you planning to bomb the whole church?" she asked, Daniella, nodded and smiled.

"You know that your husband, the triplets and your brother were in there right? If you bomb the whole church, you will be alone, and I will be single" Peyton flattened her face, thinking how crazy Daniella was.

"This is only a smoke grenade, so now, after we throw it. I will take Ken and deliver him to Novie and you will go to my husband and explain the situation"

Peyton protested, "Why don't we switched? I don't want to speak to your husband. he's too scary" her skin crawled.

"Hey Peyton, if you fear my husband I am more scared of my daughter, she will curse me forever once she finds out that I was the person who ruined her happiness" the two decided to continue with Daniella's plan.

Inside the church, the priest asked Ethan to bring the rings, then he looked at the couple in front and asked them to repeat after him.

The couple faces each other and joined their hand for the vow.

Ken stared at the woman in front, his mind started playing tricks on him, all he can see was Novie's face, the smile she had on her face the day she accepted his proposal, her blushing face when they dance in the rooftop, everything. His eyes flickered while his lips parted to say his vow.

"I Ken Chu, take Novie McSalter to be my we---" Ken stopped when he saw Anna's eyes widened, he creased his brows with confusion.

When he turned to his side, the priest leaned forward and whispered, "It should be Anna Tang" he could feel his soul escaping from his body. He stared at Anna, "I am sorry" Anna nodded and smiled.

"that's fine," she said and with that, he continued.

"To be my wedded wife, to have and to hold, from--" he could no longer continue, he felt as if there was a cactus stuck in his throat.

"Take a deep breath, Ken," Anna said and smiled at him, but all he can see was Novie's face.

He wants to run away but he's doing this for his mother's sake, she will get the treatment and will be able to walk and enjoy the life.

"from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer –"

Before he could finish, a loud hiss echoed in the church followed by a vast of smoke. Everyone covered their noses and ran outside.

Ken widened his eyes, bewildered, and then he felt a soft hand grabbing his wrist, he thought it was Anna but the voice he hears was from his sister.

"Brother, time to get your real fiancee" then he was dragged out of the church.

Meanwhile, Peyton went to the triplets and saw a figure of a tall man walking to their direction.

"What is Daniella's planning now?" It was Evan, he took Alexandria and Leo to his arms while she carries Ethan.

"She mentioned you will be asking that so she said and I should tell you 'babe I will be gone for few days, take care of the triplets'," she replied, they both walk out of the church, "Matthew" Peyton called out her boyfriend after seeing him looking around and confuse, the man looked at her and grabbed his camera.

The whole church was in chaos, while the bride sat on the stairs with tears in her eyes, she heard Daniella's whisper and she knows that Daniella will bring Ken back to Novie.

Her eyes shut by the pain that throbbing her heart, she was so close to being Ken's wife.

Soon Ken will know the truth, and she's certain that he will hate her so much.

She got up and removed her veil, then she walked to Bea who was also confused with what's happening.

"Where's my son?" Bea asked and held her hands, Anna stared at her emotionless, the pain in her heart made her face blank.

"Daniella knows everything, our scheme and lies, and now she will bring Ken back to Novie," she spoke in a flat voice.

Bea tightened the grip to her hands, "Don't worry, Ken will come back to you. Novie will never take him back whatever he does" she spoke with assurance.

Anna pulled her hand from Bea, she glared at her while her blood boiled from anger, "You are his mother, will you please consider your son's happiness before yours. I will not work with you. I wasted five years of my life following your broken son, begging for his attention. But I am at my limit. I'm done pushing myself to him. It's his loss, not mine" she yelled at Bea and walks out of the church.

Anna took the back door to escape the paparazzi, she tried to find a car but there was not even one.

"You need a ride?" the sudden voice from behind startled her, she looked back and saw Danny.

"I am sorry if my sister did this. She warned you, didn't she?" he continued. Anna nodded, she and Daniella had been friends for so long that's why Daniella asked her to tell the truth to Ken but she ignored it and followed her heart.

"Let's go before the paparazzi will see you here" Anna followed him and they left the church.

While driving, Danny handed her a key, she looked at him with a furrowed forehead, confused.

Without looking at her, Danny spoke, "I will bring you to the house I used to stay, it's hidden, no one can find you even my sister, you can stay there as long as you want, and if you need anything, call me" Anna accepted the key, this is what she needs right now, she wants to be alone.

"Why are you doing this, why are you helping me?" she asked. She never spoke to Danny though she met him a few times.

"Because my half-ass brother and evil twin sister did not consider your feelings, so take this as a payment" Anna stared at his serious face, she gulped and looked at the window.

She had seen this coming; she knows that one day Ken will turn his back at her, leaving her.
