President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 235

Cindy took Sean by the arm and went to the end of the red carpet step by step under the blue sea and blue sky.

White wedding dress, black suit, golden beach and red carpet complemented each other.

It was so beautiful.

I thought of my wedding to Sean. Although we followed the process, I was only Molly’s double, but compared with them at this moment.

It was just a joke.

I stood in the corner and watched them walk up to the priest.

The priest asked, “Sean, bridegroom, would you like to accept Cindy as your wife?”

“I do.”

Sean replied without hesitation.

Then the priest asked, “you will be gentle and careful to your wife and respect and love her and her parents. You won’t fall in love with other people in the future. You promise that you belonge entirely to her. Can you promise in public?”

When the priest finished, my heart pounded.

I had never heard such a vow.

I thought the marriage vow was that no matter rich or poor, we should never give up.

I thought today’s wedding vow was very harsh. It sounded that it was telling me specifically.

When I thought about the past two days, my face was burning.

About half a minute after the priest asked, Sean didn’t answer.

I saw the priest a little embarrassed. The guests around began to whisper.

To ease the embarrassment, the priest asked again, “can you promise in front of the crowd?”

“Yes.”

Sean replied.

Even so, the guests complained a little about Sean.

Especially Cindy’s parents sitting at the front. They looked very unhappy.

Sean answered, and the priest asked Cindy a similar question, which Cindy soon answered.

After exchanging vows, they exchanged wedding rings.

I could see Cindy’s face full of happy smiles.

When they put wedding rings on each other, the priest said, “groom, you can kiss your bride now.”

This was the most important moment of the wedding.

Everyone held their breath.

I saw Sean putting his hands on Cindy’s arms and his body leaning forward slowly.

At that moment, my heart seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand.

It hurt so much.

It hurt so much.

I regretted coming to the wedding.

I was really abusing myself.

When Sean’s lips were about to touch Cindy’s cheek, he suddenly fell to the ground without any warning!

“Sean!” Cindy quickly squatted down and touched his face. She shouted, “he has a fever!”

“Doctor! Where is the doctor!”

Monica yelled.

Then all the guests came together. I was the only one standing there. I was thinking about the figure out of the window last night.

Did Sean stand there all night?

What did he want to do?

Did he want to move me in this extreme way?

“I will not be moved.”

I said to myself.

Because Sean fainted, everyone was flustered.

A waiter brought a stretcher and carried Sean away. I stood aside. As he passed by, I felt a light force grabbing my clothes.

I was stunned.

I saw that Sean’s eyes were closed and his face was pale. At first sight, he was in poor health.

But when I looked back, I saw Cindy standing not far away. She was not as gentle as she used to be. She was not flustered and her eyes were cold and even hateful!

I was stunned.

When I recovered, she was back to her original state. She frowned and ran nervously to Sean and grabbed his hand.

I wondered if I was wrong.

“What’s your plan?” Ming came to me and asked me.

“I’ll leave in a minute.”

It was a lovely day. I had to get out of here quickly.

Cindy would take care of Sean. If I stayed here, I would be hated.

“I’ll leave with you.” Ming said.

“OK.”

This time I didn’t refuse.

The wedding was over.

“Ming.” When Ming was going to accompany me to leave, Simon’s voice came from behind.

We looked back together.

“Yes.” Ming was very respectful to Simon.

Simon patted him on the shoulder. “Ming, I’m busy preparing for this wedding these days, so I didn’t have a good chat with you. You come to my room in the evening. Let’s have a good chat.”

“I’m going to leave the island with June. Are you going straight back this time? You can stay in York for a while. I’m in charge of entertaining you.”

Ming immediately rejected Simon.

I said awkwardly, “no, I can go back by myself. You haven’t seen each other for a long time, so you should have a good chat.”

“You are very sensible.” Simon smiled and said, “don’t leave now. Play for two more days. Others don’t want to leave. Why are you in such a hurry?”

Simon and Monica had totally different attitudes towards me.

He seemed to treat me as Ming’s girlfriend completely, so his attitude was very good.

And he seemed to have a good character.

“I’m going back to do something.” I took a look at Ming. “You can accompany your brother. We can meet in York.”

Ming hesitated.

I knew he still wanted to turn down his brother.

I thought of Ming’s position in the Jessop family. Simon was nice to him. I didn’t want to spoil Simon’s impression of him.

I went on, “I’m not a kid. I can do it.”

With that, I left at once.

I went back to my room and prepared to walk to the dock with my luggage.

As soon as I got to the door, a waiter came up to me and asked, “excuse me, are you Miss Carter?”

“Yes.”

“President Jessop asked me to take you off the island.”

I responded so the waiter quickly picked up my suitcase and signaled me to move on.

I looked at the waiter and found him strange. I hesitated and asked, “President Jessop? Didn’t he faint?”

“President Jessop told me last night that Miss Carter would leave the island after the wedding. He asked me to help you with your luggage.”

The waiter said without hesitation.

He seemed to have known for a long time that I would ask him.

“Sean is right.” He knew me too well.

I got to the dock. There was a row of almost the same yachts. The waiter took me directly to one of the yachts and put down my luggage. He said, “have a good life.” Then he left.

As soon as I put my luggage on deck, the yacht started and gradually left the island.

I turned around and found that there was no one on the yacht but me.

I had a bad premonition.
