Perhaps this is what life is all about, and what makes it more precious.
As the candle was about to burn out, Valda spoke to the gravestone, “Mom and Dad, I am very happy now. Brian is really good to me. Every year from now on, he and I will come to visit you. In the future, we will also bring our children to visit you together.”
The wind blew through the leaves, making a rustling sound, as if responding to her words.
Valda knelt in front of the tombstone, wanting to pay her respects to her parents in a solemn manner.
However, what she didn’t expect was for Brian to also kneel down beside her.
“Brian, you–” Valda looked surprised.
“In the past, during weddings, there used to be a ceremony to show our respect to parents. Now, we will do it in advance,”
said Brian.
Suddenly, her tears couldn’t be held back any longer and rolled down from her eyes.
He lifted his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face. “Don’t cry, your parents are still watching.”
She sniffled and smiled with tears in her eyes, saying, “My parents will definitely like you as their son-
in-law.”
He wiped away her tears and together they turned to face the tombstone. They both knelt down respectfully and bowed.
This is… the greatest respect and gratitude towards her parents.
I am grateful that they gave birth to Valda.
I am grateful to them for protecting Valda with their lives during the most dangerous time.
If Valda didn’t exist in this world, then his life would still be bleak up until now.
Kneeling is finished.
Brian and Valda stood up. Brian took Valda’s hand and walked her to the steps leading down the mountain. He looked at her and said, “Let me carry you down the mountain. You walked up here by yourself and stood in front of the tombstone for so long. Your legs must be hurting now.”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across her expression. He had guessed correctly – her legs had indeed started to ache, but it wasn’t too severe. She should be able to make it down the mountain.
“I have no problem walking down the mountain,” said Valda.
“I’ll carry you,” Brian insisted.
“But my wedding dress is very heavy, it would be too tiring for you to carry me down the mountain,”
said Valda.
Brian smiled slightly and said, “Don’t worry, your husband’s physical strength is not that bad. Besides, even if it’s heavy, I want to carry it. In the future, when your legs hurt, I will carry you.”
He spoke and then voluntarily knelt down in front of her.
Valda finally lowered herself and lay on Brian’s back when she saw him. However, even so, she still expressed some concern, saying, “If you get tired, please let me know.””
“Okay,” he said, but deep down he knew that even if he was truly tired, he wouldn’t admit it.
Because he couldn’t bear to see her suffer from leg pain, he couldn’t bear to see her walking on mountain roads while in pain.
And so, he carried her on his back and slowly made his way down the mountain. Even though sweat dripped down his forehead and he grew tired and exhausted as they walked, he still couldn’t bear to put her down.
She knew that, more than exhaustion, he felt a sense of happiness.
He felt really happy carrying her like this.
On the day of the formal wedding, the whole city was bustling with excitement. Online, there was an overwhelming amount of information about the wedding.
After all, how could the wedding of a prince in the entertainment industry not attract gossip? Especially when the bride is a Cinderella with a limp, it’s just like a fairy tale.
And the online reputation has been slowly changing over the past six months.
Valda has become a role model for many ordinary girls. After all, many people hope to be Cinderella and have their own prince, and Valda has given these people hope.
Who says a prince can’t fall in love with an ordinary girl!
Even more, Valda has a limp leg, but the prince still loves her and doesn’t regret marrying her!
Besides the attention on the newlyweds, the guests at the wedding were also impressive.
Almost all the celebrities in Emerald City and big names in the entertainment industry came to attend the wedding.
The streets outside the wedding hotel were already lined with safety barriers and security guards, but there were still many people who came to watch on both sides of the hotel entrance, desperately taking photos with their phones or cameras as the celebrities arrived in their cars.
Especially when those stars got out of their cars, their fans shouted their names loudly, making the scene almost as exciting as a red carpet event.
And at this moment, in the dressing room, Valda is wearing her wedding dress, looking at herself in the mirror with exquisite makeup.
The wedding will be held soon.
She is already familiar with the wedding procedures and even rehearsed a few times yesterday, so she shouldn’t make any mistakes. However, she suddenly became nervous at this moment.
As time passed, the tension seemed to become even heavier.
“What’s wrong? Why do you look so serious?” Camille walked into the dressing room and gently patted her friend’s shoulder.
“Ah, it’s normal to feel nervous for your first wedding. Don’t worry, everything will be fine. Brian will be by your side soon, so you don’t have to worry,” said Camille.
Although that may be the case, Valda’s sense of tension is still difficult to eliminate.
“By the way, your wedding today was like a grand event in the entertainment industry. I wonder how many people will envy you. Even at award ceremonies, you don’t see so many big-name celebrities,”
Camille exclaimed. “Do you think if I ask for autographs, they will give them to me?”
Valda said, “You’ll definitely get their autographs if you wear this bridesmaid dress. After all, they have to show some respect no matter what.”
Valda is certain about this point.
“Sure,” Camille said, checking the time. “We have 20 minutes until the admission time. Do you want to use the restroom or anything?”
“No need,” Valda shook her head, her face looking a bit pale due to nervousness.
“I’ll go outside and check the situation first,” Camille said, walking out of the dressing room.
4/5 At this moment, there were only Valda, the makeup artist, and a few assistants in the dressing room.
The makeup artist checked Valda’s makeup and then had an assistant bring in the wedding shoes, preparing to help Valda put them on.
Just then, the dressing room door was pushed open and Brian walked in.
Brian said to the others, “You guys can leave, I need to talk to Valda alone for a few minutes.”
“But the wedding shoes…”
“I’ll help Valda put them on,” Brian said.
So the makeup artist and the assistants left the dressing room one after another.
Now, only Brian and Valda were left in the room.
Brian crouched down in front of Valda and picked up one of the wedding shoes. He carefully put it on
Valda’s foot.
Then, they took another wedding shoe and put it on her other foot.
5/5 Valda stared at the man squatting in front of her, feeling a bit dazed. In this world, he was the man who easily surrendered his emotions to her, and the man she would cherish for the rest of her life.
When he finished putting on her wedding shoes, she asked, “How did you come in? Weren’t you supposed to be outside greeting the guests?”
“Your parents are welcoming the guests,” said Brian. “I heard from Camille that you’re feeling nervous now?”
“She felt a bit embarrassed and stuck out her tongue. ‘Did she tell you?””
He smiled slightly and said, “Don’t worry, I’ve got everything under control.”
A gentle voice and a simple sentence miraculously eased the nervousness in her heart little by little…
“I’m worried that if I make a mistake or fall down, it will be very embarrassing,” Valda expressed her concerns. “And on a day like today, if I really mess up, I won’t just be losing face for myself, but also for the Hart family.”
“Don’t worry, even if you really made a mistake, you don’t have to be afraid of losing face or embarrassing the Hart family. The Hart family is your reliable support, not something you have to be cautious about,” said Brian.
Valda felt her heart warm as she heard Brian continue, “Even if you did make a mistake, I’ll be there with you every step of the way. After all, it’s our wedding, and we can do things our way, right?”
Valda held Brian’s face in her hands and leaned in slightly, pressing her forehead against his. “Brian, I’m okay now because… you’ll be by my side.”
“Yes, I’ll be by your side,” he murmured in reply.
When it was time for her to make an appearance, Valda stood alone at one end of the red carpet.
In a normal procedure, the bride’s father would lead her to the groom at this moment. However, Valda’s father has passed away, and their family has lost contact with their relatives. Therefore, there are no male relatives present at this moment.
Originally, the Hart family planned to have a male relative escort Valda down the red carpet, but Valda refused.
“I’ll go by myself,” she decided.
Instead of finding someone who doesn’t have much emotional connection to walk this path with her, she would rather walk it alone by herself.
Because this is the most important journey of her life.
On the Hart family’s side, they agreed to her request.
And so, at this moment, Valda held a bouquet of flowers in her hand and walked step by step towards
Brian, who was standing on the stage in front of the banquet hall.
That is the future, and the man she will spend the rest of her life with is the person she loves the most in this world!
From now on, she will rely on and stay with him, they will have children together, and grow old together with white hair.
Her footsteps were unusually firm. Everything around her seemed to gradually fade away, and in her eyes, there was only the presence of one person.
At this moment, she can clearly hear the sound of her own heartbeat and breathing.
