The Brother Stopped Our Wheelchair Wedding With Handcuffs, But My Groom Had a Secret
Previously: Jessica and Matthew, both paralyzed in a tragic accident, finally find happiness at the altar. But when Matthew's ruthless brother interrupts with handcuffs, a shocking secret is revealed.
The Intruder at the Altar
The peaceful sanctuary was instantly shattered as the heavy doors slammed against the stone walls. Jessica gasped, her bouquet nearly slipping from her hands as a cold draft swept through the church. Standing in the doorway was Richard, Matthew’s estranged stepbrother, accompanied by two burly security guards and a stern-faced man carrying a briefcase. Richard wore a smug, malicious grin that chilled Jessica to her core.
Richard had spent the last three years systematically stripping Matthew of his inheritance and his position at the family logistics empire, taking advantage of Matthew's hospitalization to forge documents and seize control. Now, he had come to ruin the one thing Matthew had left: his happiness.
"Stop this pathetic farce right now!" Richard’s voice boomed off the high, vaulted ceilings, startling the guests. "This wedding is officially over."
Matthew’s grip on Jessica’s hand tightened, his knuckles turning white. "Richard, get out," Matthew demanded, his voice trembling with a mixture of anger and disgust. "You’ve already taken my company and my trust fund. Leave us in peace."
Richard laughed, a harsh, grating sound. "I'm not here for your peace, Matthew. I'm here for justice," he sneered, stepping down the aisle. He gestured to the man beside him. "This is District Attorney Vance. We have a warrant for Jessica’s arrest."
A collective gasp rippled through the congregation. Richard threw a thick folder onto the altar. "Jessica embezzled over two hundred thousand dollars from the family’s charity fund. And more importantly, we have proof she was the one who grabbed the steering wheel during your accident three years ago to murder you for your trust fund."
Jessica felt the room spin. The accusations were monstrous, entirely fabricated lies. She looked at the attorney, who was already stepping forward with a pair of handcuffs. But before anyone could move, Matthew did the unthinkable. He reached down to his legs, unlocked the heavy metal braces, and began to stand.
