Tim was slightly stunned.
"What are you talking about?"
"I said cancel the wedding!"
Evelyn was so anxious that she was sweating. The panic and anxiety in her eyes revealed that
something bad happened.
Tim knew her well and he also knew how much Evelyn was looking forward to this wedding. Therefore,
if Evelyn asked for calling off the wedding, there must be some problems that she thought couldn't be
solved.
Tim cast about for a way in his mind.
"I found it!"
At that moment, he found Evelyn's wedding shoes and raised them in the air.
There was a burst of cheers.
The makeup artist was relieved, when witnessing that Tim hadn't put off the wedding and that Evelyn,
lowering her head, hadn't talked to Tim. Besides, she reckoned that Tim didn't have time to arrange
anything when searching for shoes.
Evelyn was so worried.
Did Tim not hear what she just said?
She asked him to cancel the wedding and he didn't respond, happily holding up her shoes. What
happened to him?
Evelyn twisted her hands agitatedly.
Tim knelt down on one knee and began to put on the shoes for Evelyn.
Tim said to Evelyn affectionately, "My love, are you willing to put on the shoes and walk down the aisle
with me? From now on, we are blessed with the same fate and we will stay together through thick and
thin. You will be the apple of my eye. I know I'm not perfect, but I will always try my best for you. I will
pamper you as my princess, so that you won't be sad and you won't regret marrying me. Now, would
you like me to carry you away?"
Everyone was touched by what he said.
Evelyn felt bad for both of them.
This was the oath she wanted the most and the romance she had been longing for. If it weren't for her
father, she would be absolutely willing to marry Tim. But how could she do it now?
Once she walked out of the room with Tim, there would no longer be such a peaceful relationship
between them.
Evelyn couldn't hold back her tears and began to cry.
"I don't..."
Just as Evelyn was about to reject Tim, the makeup artist took a step forward and stopped her.
"Look, the bride was getting overexcited and her makeup needs to be fixed. Mr. Tim, let me help her
first."
Tim stopped her.
"Can't you see that I'm proposing to my love? She's crying for happiness now. What are you doing
here?"
Tim was so serious and had a menacing look.
After all, Tim was a soldier once. Although he had spent all these years wandering around like a
playboy, he had indeed killed people on the battlefield. At this moment, the whole room filled with his
killing intent, causing the air to freeze.
The makeup artist felt as if Tim had grabbed her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Actually, she had never looked up to Tim, for she thought Tim was just a playboy. All of his success
owed to Samuel's protection, benefiting from being Nicole's cousin. However, she knew that she was
wrong.
Tim was like a dormant lion. Normally, he won't be so offensive; but at this moment, he put pressure on
her that made her unable to withstand it.
"Mr. Tim, I was trying to help."
The makeup artist murmured.
"I love my wife no matter what. Get lost."
Tim's disrespect for the makeup artist stunned people in that room. However, he did not care what
others thought. Instead, he turned to Evelyn and said affectionately, "Evelyn, let's go. Let me take you
home."
After saying that, Tim finished putting on the shoes for Evelyn and picked her up.
"We're going home! Guys, let's go."
Tim shouted at the top of his voice willfully, causing his best men and a few bachelor to echo.
"Let's go. Tim is getting married!"
They were like bandits.
Evelyn grabbed onto Tim's collar tightly and had mixed feelings. She was so thankful for having such a
great lover, but she had no idea what to do right now.
"Tim, Major's men kidnapped my father and threatened me to take Nicole's life at our wedding.
Otherwise, my father would be dead. I don't want to hurt your family, so I beg you to cancel our
wedding please. I don't want a wedding, I really don't."
Evelyn cried softly on Tim's shoulder.
The surroundings were filled with commotion. No one heard what was said between them and they just
saw that Evelyn was tearful. They all thought that it was the bride's tears of joy and excitement.
The atmosphere was quite euphoric.
Tim was stunned for a moment. He then smiled and said, "My bride, today is your day. Everyone in the
Seapolis City is looking at you, envying you and you deserve to be in the spotlight. Don't cry, my love,
or the tears would mess up with your beautiful face. No matter what happens today, I'll be there for you.
We'll definitely get married."
"But Nicole..."
"Don't worry. Samuel would take care of him. Is the makeup artist from Major's side?"
Tim gently smiled. His eyes were filled with affection, and Evelyn was the only person that he wanted to
see.
Seeing her reflection in his eyes made Evelyn want to cry, but with happiness this time.
What Tim just said meant that he and Samuel were actually prepared for a scene like this.
Thinking of this, Evelyn was finally relieved.
However, for Tim, he was not as relaxed as he looked.
He knew Evelyn's feelings for him and decided to spend the rest of life with her. He also knew that
Evelyn would not hurt Nicole no matter what; but he never expected that she would be threaten with
her father's life.
When choosing between saving their father's life and saving Nicole's, most women would save their
father for sure. So even Evelyn made the same decision, Tim would understand and will not blame her
for it. However, there would be estrangement and resentment in the end.
But Evelyn chose to save both of them by giving up her own marriage.
Her decision showed that Nicole and her father were equally important in her heart. This also meant
that Evelyn had treated Tim's family as her own.
How could he not love such a woman? How could he not protect her?
From now on, he would look out for her at any cost.
From today, Evelyn would be the love of his life and he would never let her go.
Thinking of this, Tim's smile became even brighter.
According to the customs of the Seapolis City, the bridegroom had to ask for permission from the
bride's family when he picked her up at home.
Evelyn was very worried. She didn't know whether her father was able to show up and whether Grace
could wake him up?
Many rubberneckers were waiting here.
Tim carried Evelyn to the living room and asked, "Where is my father-in-law? Evelyn and I would like to
thank you for your upbringing and your graciousness. Please give us a chance to show our gratitude in
person."
Only then did everyone realize that Mr. Ethan was not here.
"Where's Mr. Ethan? His daughter is getting married today. Where else would he go?"
People heard this and started to look for Mr. Ethan.
The makeup artist was anxious, but she could not take any action since a lot of people came here for
the wedding.
It was also not an easy time for Evelyn. She was really not sure about whether her father would appear
unharmed.
Just as people were about to give up finding Mr. Ethan, Grace walked in with a smile.
"I'm really sorry. Mr. Ethan got too excited today suffered high blood pressure. He fainted a moment
ago and had examined by our family doctor. He will come right over. Sorry for your waiting."
Everyone was relieved after listened to Grace's explanation.
People knew that Ethan was widowed at the age of thirty and never got married afterwards for the sake
of Evelyn. Now that his daughter was about to get married, it's not hard to image how touched he
would be.
It was bittersweet. After all, Evelyn will be the wife of Tim from today onwards, rather than just being
the little princess for Mr. Ethan.
So it was understandable for Mr. Ethan to have a high blood pressure today.
People took it for granted, but Evelyn knew that it was not the whole story. However, she couldn't and
didn't dare to say anything.
Mr. Ethan finally showed up and grabbed everyone's attention.
The moment she saw her father, Evelyn burst into tears.
"Dad!"
She jumped out of Tim's arms, jumped at her father and hugged him tightly.
"Dad!"
Evelyn was trembling.
Everyone thought that she was reluctant to part with her father, but only Evelyn knew that she felt guilty
at this moment.
She's not a good daughter. She's really not.
Her father didn't know what was actually going on, and he still showed up for her wedding.
How could she repay her father's love?
Mr. Ethan's eyes got a little watery. He patted Evelyn on the back and said, "My Evelyn has grown up
and is going to get married. I am happy for you and feel reluctant to part with you. Fortunately, you will
marry the man you love, and Tim is quite responsible, for which I am gratified. Baby girl, please don't
cry. Today is your big day and you should get into the wedding car beautifully. You know, I will always
be here for you. If you were treated badly, you don't need to stand for it. Come back and talk to me. Let
me protect you. I will make him regret for what he did at all costs. Do you understand?"
Ethan's words were a little bit confusing in this situation.
Was this a lesson for the new son-in-law?
However, it made sense for Evelyn. She knew that her father was trying to comfort her and told her not
to worry about his health.
Tim heaved a sigh of relief and stepped forward, "Dad, don't worry. I'll be good to Evelyn. I know we’re
gonna have our differences, but I'm a man and I'm not gonna fight with her. She won't be able to start a
fight without me, will she?"
"Tim, that is cold violence!"
Hearing what he said, Evelyn immediately retorted. Everyone laughed, except for one person who had
a gloomy look, thinking.
