My Groom Cheated Minutes Before Our Wedding, So I Handed My Bouquet to the Coordinator
Previously: When Emily discovered her fiancé's ultimate betrayal just minutes before walking down the aisle, she called off the wedding, changed her dress, and threw her bouquet to the shocked coordinator.
A Confrontation in the Courtyard
The heavy wooden doors of the parish creaked open, and Julian stepped out into the warm evening air, his tie slightly askew and his face twisted in fury. Behind him followed Sarah, Emily's cousin and maid of honor, looking pale and guilty. Julian marched down the cobblestone steps, his voice booming across the courtyard. "What is the meaning of this, Emily? Why are you in that dress? You are making a mockery of my family!"
Emily turned to face him, feeling a sudden, powerful wave of calm. "Your family should be embarrassed by your actions, Julian. I know about you and Sarah. I heard everything in the groom's suite." The crowd of guests gasped, a wave of shocked murmurs rippling through the crowd. Sarah shrank back, unable to meet Emily's gaze, while Julian's face turned a dangerous shade of red.
"You're hysterical," Julian hissed, stepping closer and reaching out to grab her arm. "You're nothing without my family's wealth. You will get back inside right now!"
But before Julian's hand could touch her, Nicholas stepped forward. With a firm, unyielding grip, the coordinator caught Julian's wrist mid-air. "Do not touch her," Nicholas said, his voice dropping to a low, protective growl that surprised everyone, including Emily.
"Let go of me, you pathetic hired help!" Julian sneered, struggling against the grip. "I'll have you fired and blacklisted from every venue in the state!"
Just then, Julian’s father, a powerful and feared billionaire, marched down the steps with two security guards. But as he approached the confrontation, his eyes locked onto Nicholas. The older man froze, his anger instantly evaporating into pure disbelief.
"Nicholas?" the billionaire whispered, his voice trembling. "Is that really you? You've been gone for five years." Emily stared at Nicholas, utterly stunned. Who was this coordinator, and why did one of the city's most powerful men look at him with such reverence?
