Chapter 258 A Tragic Wedding Night 3

"Thanks."

He kisses her lips. Exerting his force slightly harder, he hugs her tightly.

The next morning, Karin receives a call from Lily, inviting her to be a guest at her home at noon. And
she agrees readily.

It has been five years ever since they saw each other the last time. When they see each other again,
Karin sees that Lily, who still looks so beautiful, is as charming as she was back then. However, it is
just that behind her, there hides a lively and naughty child, who is blinking a pair of clear and big eyes.
And he is looking at the strange woman in front of him curiously.

"Sis Lily..."

As Karin lightly calls Lily, she feels that there is some heat in her eyes and that she feels complicated in
her heart.

"Karin."

Likewise, Lily also has mixed feelings in her heart. However, in her heart, she senses more joy.

"Please come in."

Lily lets Karin in and takes her hand as she says, "I never thought we would see each other again.
After you left five years ago, I thought you would never come back."

As the saying goes, everything in the world is unpredictable. Five years ago, Karin wouldn’t have
thought that she would leave Troy one day. Likewise, five years later, she doesn’t expect that she will
come back to his side.



"I just found out that you had arrived in Zurich last night. And I have been excited all night long. And the
next day, I heard Troy say that you had given birth to a child who is his mine. I can’t be happier in my
heart."

At the mention of this, Lily feels quite ashamed and says, "Fortunately, you didn’t do as I say back then,
that was, to get rid of the child."

"It all happened in the past. So don't mention it. Besides, Sis Lily, I don't blame you either. You weren't
the only one that advised me to abort the baby at that time. It is just that fortunately, the baby was his."

"I am so happy that you don’t blame me. Only after I become a mother can I relate what you were
feeling at the time..."

Lily pulls the little boy who has been hiding behind her forward and points to Karin, "Bruce, call her
Auntie."

Karin, who is surprised, goes forward to pick up Bruce in her arms, "Sis Lily, I indeed didn't expect that
you will have a child as well. Is it that guy's child?"

"Yes."

Lily smiles, "It turns out that it was so easy to get him to agree to marry me. As soon as I told him I was
pregnant, he surrendered right away. I have wasted my time over those years for nothing."

"So you're married now, right?"

"Yes, I did. I got married three years ago."

"What a pity that I couldn't attend your wedding, Sis Lily."



Karin looks at Bruce and thinks of her daughter. Patting his little face, she says, "Handsome Boy, could
it be that I am quite pretty? How come you keep staring at me like this?"

Bruce doesn’t know how to get along with someone he just met. And he hides behind his mother again.

"By the way, where is Sis Arya? How is she doing now?"

"Arya also got married. She married a British pianist. And she got married the winter before the last."

Karin nods without asking how Milan is doing. Although Milan is Troy's eldest sister, Karin will never
forget who is the root cause of her pain over these five years.

"Arya and I sort of have found the man we love. It is just that Sis Milan is still the same. The
noncompetitive Stanley is as flirtatious as ever. Because of you, over these years, Troy doesn’t get
along with her. Sis Milan is quite lonely."

"Do you have time next Monday?"

Karin, who doesn't want to talk about Milan, changes the subject.

"Yes. What's wrong?"

"I'm getting married that day. And I'm inviting you to attend my wedding."

Lily asks excitedly, "Really? With Troy?"

Karin smiles in amazement, "Of course. If not with him, who else can it be?"

Originally, Lily looks surprised. However, the next second, her face turns gloomy as she says,
"Originally, I thought my Troy wouldn’t be in the mood to think about holding a wedding ceremony
now?"



"I'm the one who proposed it."

"Why did you propose getting married now? You should also know that he is so busy now, right?"

"I know. But I still want to get married so that he will have fewer excuses to kick me out as well as stop
other women from having him on their minds. We won’t have a grand wedding. The simpler the
wedding is, the better it will be."

Lily sighs slightly, "Good then. You should have held a wedding ceremony five years ago. It is time that
you should hold one now."

"Then it's a deal. Remember to show up then."

"What are you talking about? It is Troy’s wedding. As his sister, I surely have to attend then. If I can
help you with anything, just say it. And by the way, what about your kid? When will you bring her over?"

"I don't plan to bring her over here for the time being. I'll wait until the situation is more stable.
Moreover, she will be safer by my parents’ side.”

"That's true."

Karin's long-awaited wedding finally goes on as scheduled. And they hold the wedding in Zurich
Cathedral. Since Troy and Karin don’t announce the news to the public, few people know about it
except for Robert and Billie as well as Troy's three elder sisters. Although they don’t inform Milan, she
still shows up, indicating that she should have got the news from Lily.

It is not until they have walked down the aisle and stood in front of the solemn priest that Molly shows
up. And she looks at the couple in front of her in shock as her eyes well up with tears. It is not because
she is moved. Instead, it is because she doesn't expect that Karin will marry Troy in secret.



She, who is suffering from a huge shock in her heart, wants to shout, asking them to stop the wedding
ceremony from going on. However, as she meets Karin’s eyes and sees that Karin is standing next to
Troy, she holds herself back. After all, Troy treats her as if she were a sister of his. And he surely won’t
give up his wedding for her. There is even a possibility that because of her impulse, they can no longer
be friends.

As the melodious wedding song comes to an end, the priest begins to read the vows, "Lord, we come
before you to witness the blessing of this man and this woman who are here to be bound by holy
matrimony. Following the will of the Lord, they are united in marriage for life and eternity. From now on,
they will walk together in joy, love each other, help each other, educate each other, and believe in each
other. The Heavenly Father has blessed the couple. They will be blessed with the grace of the Holy
Spirit; they will love the Savior, and they will be praised in front of the Lord for the rest of their lives."

After reading the vows, the priest, who is also a master of ceremonies, continues, "I command you to
confess before the Lord about any reason that prevents you from being united. Either you present it at
once or remain silent forever."　　

A moment of silence represents the fact that nothing is preventing them from being united with each
other.

Then the priest says to the bride, "Do you wish this man to be your husband and marry him? In
sickness and in health, or for any other reason, will you love him, care for him, honor him, accept him,
and remain faithful to him forever until the end of your life?"　　

The bride replies, "I do."　　

The priest asks the bridegroom again, "Do you wish this woman to be your wife and marry her? In
sickness and in health, or for any other reason, will you love her, care for her, honor her, accept her,
and remain faithful to her forever until the end of your life?"　　



The bridegroom replies, "I do."　　

After that, the priest says to the crowd, "Are you all willing to bear witness to their marriage vows?"　　

Although the crowd is small-sized, they answer loudly, "Yes."

Except for Molly who doesn't answer, everyone else among the crowd responds, including Milan who
didn't think highly of the marriage at first.

Troy takes Karin's right hand and says, "In the name of God, I solemnly swear, ‘I accept you as my
wife. And from this day forward, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, I will love you and
cherish you until the last day of my life."

Karin also raises her hand, "In the name of God, I solemnly swear, ‘I accept you as my husband and
that I will love you and cherish you from this day forward, whether it is in sickness and in health, for
better or for worse. I will be always so until the last day of my life."

They lower their hands and exchange their wedding rings. And the bridegroom places the ring on the
bride's left ring finger and says, "I give you this ring, which represents a symbol of love. In the name of
the Father and the Son as well as the Holy Spirit, I give you all that I have."

The bride puts the ring on the groom's left ring finger and says the same words. Then the priest takes
the right hands theirs and says, "The bride and groom vow to each other and accept each other’s ring.
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I pronounce you as husband and wife. God has
joined you together. And no one shall break you apart. God will bless you, pray for you, and grant you
with glorious merit. And you will live and die together. Amen..."

Then the bride and groom face each other. And the groom kisses the bride. From now on, they will hold
each other’s hand and stay together until the last day of their lives.



After finishing the wedding ceremony in the church, Karin and Troy officially tie the knot. And every one
of the crowd attends the wedding banquet in the evening except for Molly.

The wedding banquet is held in Ziteng Garden. Karin, who doesn’t want to sit with Milan, quietly gets
up and goes to the garden. Soon, Billie also comes out and sits next to Karin. Then she reaches out
and puts her arms around Karin’s shoulders, sighing, "Time flies. As I recall the past and think of the
time when we reported at college as freshmen, you were a young and innocent girl. In the blink of an
eye, ten years have passed. You have become a five-year-old child's mother. And I've become a so-
called shrew."
