Fred’s lips curled into a smile as he turned back to Roy, his tone edging on mockery, “You see that?”

Roy’s face went pale, his heart feeling like it was being squeezed hard, leaving him struggling to breathe. He shook his head frantically, his voice filled with desperation, “No… it can’t be! You said you only loved me! Emma, please, I messed up… don’t do this to me…“?
His voice faded into a choked whisper.
Shelly stood off to the side, her mind spinning with confusion. She took in Roy’s almost crazed expression, then at Emma’s cold demeanor, and suddenly something clicked, making her go pale.”
She rushed over, grabbing Roy by the collar, her voice trembling, “Roy, what are you doing?“%
Roy stumbled slightly from her tug, but his eyes stayed glued to Emma, as if he couldn’t hear Shelly’s words.2
Shaking with anger, Shelly slapped him hard, her voice full of fury and disappointment, “Roy! Get out of here now!“%
Roy’s head snapped to the side from the slap, his cheek stinging, but he seemed numb to it.
His gaze stayed locked on Emma, his voice filled with despair, “Emma… don’t do this… I’m sorry… don’t marry him… I’m begging you…“2
Fred watched Roy with a cold stare, his tone sharp with warning, “Mr. Roy, please leave. I won’t hesitate to call security.“2
Roy seemed oblivious, still fixated on Emma, his voice breaking, “Emma… don’t do this… don’t marry him… I’m begging you…“I
Shelly, trembling with rage, grabbed Roy’s arm, her voice cracking, “Roy! Get out! Stop humiliating yourself!”
Still, Roy didn’t seem to hear, his eyes pleading as they stayed on Emma. Emma didn’t look at him even once, her hand tightly holding Fred’s, like he was her rock.
Eventually, security came and dragged Roy away. His voice faded into the distance, still calling Emma’s name.”
Shelly stood there, watching Roy being taken away, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn’t quite name. She turned to Emma, her voice apologetic, “Emma, I’m sorry… I didn’t know he…”
After that, Shelly faced the stunned guests, sincerely apologizing.”
“I’m so sorry, everyone. My brother has got some issues, and he’s been escorted out. I’m really sorry for disrupting the wedding.”
The crowd buzzed with disbelief, unable to match the handsome guy with the idea of mental issues.
Shelly ignored the stares, only looking at Emma with guilt, “Emma, I’m sorry. I’ll deal with him later. Wishing you all the happiness.“>
Emma smiled softly, her gaze tender as she looked at Fred, whispering, “I will.“}
The wedding carried on, as if the earlier drama had never happened.”
