Chapter 994 I Do
The wedding was held at the most luxurious Camilton Hotel in Casier, which was originally owned by the Duncans.
To hold a grand wedding for Branden, Karl directly instructed the Camilton Hotel to close for a whole month, specifically for the preparation of this grand wedding.
Starting from the main entrance, the entire hotel was decorated like a luxurious palace with exquisite beauty.
The beautiful setup stunned every guest who came to participate in the wedding. “This is so amazing! It looks like the Duncans really value this new bride and are willing to spend a fortune on her.”
Upon hearing someone discussing, an insider immediately responded, “It’s the Duncans’ sole heir’s marriage. Naturally, the standard cannot be low. But you did say one thing right: the Duncans value this new bride very much. You know, Mr. Karl himself personally organized this wedding.”
When these words were spoken, everyone around was shocked. Usually, the weddings of wealthy families were all taken care of by professional agencies as a place for socializing. Even the newlyweds rarely personally handle things.
But this wedding was organized personally by Mr. Karl, the heavyweight figure in the Duncans, showcasing the extent of his affection for his future daughter-in-law.
The venue’s decoration was not only luxurious but every detail at the wedding was carefully planned.
The wedding began with Thomas himself escorting Catherine down the aisle.
Catherine was wearing this gigantic, gorgeous wedding dress with a 30-foot trail and a fancy crown on her head. She appeared stunningly beautiful in front of everyone.
She hooked her arm with Thomas and slowly walked toward Branden.
“Branden, even though I am not Catherine’s family. I value her more than my own granddaughter. You must take good care of her, understand?” When Thomas said that, his eyes were already red, and he reluctantly placed Catherine’s hand into the hands of Branden.
Branden took her hands seriously, his eyes filled with respect. “You can rest assured. I swear with my life, I will protect her for a lifetime.”
Taking Catherine’s hands from Thomas, Branden walked with an incredibly heavy step.
Because he meant to marry Catherine and take care of her for the rest of her life. He was going to spend the second half of his life fulfilling this promise.
When the two of them reached the center of the main stage, Branden reminded the emcee repeatedly to simplify the process and not tire out the bride. The emcee immediately picked up the microphone and moved on to the next step. “Groom, please put on the wedding ring for the bride. I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.”
The usher led a young flower girl onto the stage. Branden slowly took the ring from the flower girl and placed it on Catherine’s ring finger.
“Groom, do you agree to take Catherine as your wife, to love and cherish her for all your days, whether in poverty or wealth?” asked the emcee.
Branden nodded without hesitation and said, “I do.”
The emcee asked Catherine the same question again.
Catherine did not immediately respond like Branden.
Everything quieted down in an instant, so quiet as if the entire world had been drained of life.
The guests looked nervously in Catherine’s direction. Everyone who knew her knew she didn’t like to follow the usual path. Now, no one knew what she would say next.
Let alone the audience below the stage. Even Branden was nervously swallowing.
He was terrified that Catherine would say she needed to think twice about it the next moment.
He had always respected Catherine’s opinions, but he was not sure if he would actually agree if she really said that.
